Why Clarksville Homes Require Custom Window Treatments
Cookie-cutter solutions don’t fit Clarksville homes – literally. Across River Hill, Cattail Creek, Ashleigh Greene and along the estate corridors on Linden Chapel Road and Guilford Road there are a series of architectural attributes that require a tailored response:
Oversized and multi-pane windows – Colonials and craftsman style estates often have window openings that are at least 5,000 square feet and need two story windows, or wide picture windows that simply do not fit standard off-the-shelf window products.
Great rooms with vaulted ceilings – These open rooms with high ceilings call for treatments that are scaled to scale and proportionately elegant. For some situations, the only feasible choice is a motorized system.
Home offices and study spaces – Clarksville has one of the highest rates of professional telecommuters in the region. Screen glare, video call lighting and daytime privacy control are everyday issues, rather than just a matter of opinion.
Finished basements and media rooms – It is important to have complete light blocking for home theater performance. Our blackout cellular shades and roller shades provide complete darkness at any time.
Primary suites with large east or west-facing windows – Morning sun management in master bedrooms is one of our most common consultations in Howard County.
Our window treatment experts are certified and know how to address these challenges. Each in-home consultation is a working session; we take a look at your architecture, your lighting throughout the day and how you use it, and your lifestyle at home before we make a single suggestion.
Our Window Treatment Products – Available in Clarksville, MD
Plantation Shutters
Clarksville's prime example of colonial and craftsman-style properties. Made from high quality hardwood and composite construction, our custom plantation shutters are customized to fit window sizes, and installed with spotless sightlines and no visible gaps. Full height, café style and tier-on-tier. Perfect for formal living rooms, dining rooms and front-facing windows where curb appeal is a factor.
Custom Cellular Shades
Designed to withstand Howard County's weather extremes. The triple-cell honeycomb design offers a great amount of insulation to the summer heat and winter cold, which is a significant feature in Clarksville's bigger residences where window area is sizable and energy costs are evident. Blackout, room-darkening and light-filtering opacities, cordless or motorized lift systems and single or double cell choices for all budgets.
Motorized & Smart Blinds
Motorized window treatments are an obvious part of a smart home investment for Clarksville's executive homes. Operate all your blinds and shades from one app, set up automatic sunrise and sunset times, or sync with Savant, Control4, Alexa, or Google Home. We do our utmost to ensure that your blinds are fully functional and functioning from the moment we arrive, as we manage the entire system installation.
Solar Shades & Roller Shades
Solar shades are especially popular in Clarksville residences with wooded rear yards and windows facing pools; they allow you to enjoy your views of your landscaping and reduce UV glare by up to 95%. In media rooms or nurseries, blackout fabric roller shades are the go-to choice. Made in hundreds of fabric texture and openness factors ranging from 1% up to 14%.
Faux Wood Blinds & Real Wood Blinds
With real wood blinds we can add warmth and natural grain to formal rooms, and with our premium faux wood composite blinds, you can achieve the same look in areas that might be subjected to rain, moisture, or temperature changes like sunrooms, kitchens, and covered porches. Both sizes come in 2-inch and 2.5-inch slats and can be stained or painted in a wide range of colors.
Roman Shades & Drapery Panels
In Clarksville's larger homes, custom Roman shades – flat, hobbled, or relaxed – provide designer texture and softness for formal rooms or bedrooms. Complementing custom drapery panels and upholstered cornice boards, they finish the interior design of rooms that require more from architecture than just a simple roller shade. We make all our drapes to order in your fabric and lining of choice.

Financing Through Regions Bank
If you are looking to treat 15 to 30 windows throughout a large home, you can expect the whole home window treatment project in Clarksville to cost anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000, on average.

Energy Efficiency in Clarksville’s Larger Homes
Homes in Clarksville average anywhere from 3,500 to 6,000 square feet and energy-efficient features are not limited to any single location, but rather are a tangible monthly expense. Energy efficient cellular shades are among the top window treatment solutions for reducing heat transfer, which helps to decrease HVAC demand all year long.

Q: How much do whole-home window treatments typically cost for a large Clarksville property?
Depending on window count, product selection and motorization, the cost for a whole home project in Clarksville is generally $4,000 – $18,000+. At the end of your free in-home consultation, we will present you with a full, written quote, with no pressure to buy. We offer 30-50% less on the same products as franchise.
Q: Do your motorized blinds work with Control4, Savant, or other custom home automation systems?
Yes. We offer our shading systems to work with the most popular smart home systems such as Control4, Savant, Crestron, Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomeKit. During installation, we coordinate with your existing automation systems for full integration seamlessly.
Q: How long does it take to install window treatments across a large home in Clarksville?
Depending on the type of project (whole-home, 15-30 windows), this installation takes us one day. After taking measurements, it takes about 3-5 weeks to be custom fabricated. A specific timeline will be given at your consultation according to product choice and current lead times.
Q: Do you offer financing for larger window treatment projects?
Yes. Qualified buyers can finance 9-months with no money down from Regions Bank. For homeowners who want to avoid the investment costs of a whole home project, this is a popular solution in Clarksville.
Q: Can I qualify for Maryland energy efficiency incentives with cellular shades?
Potentially. Energy-efficient home improvements are covered by the Maryland EmPOWER program as well as federal residential energy tax credits. In many instances our cellular shades meet the performance standards for these programs. Product certification documentation will be provided to assist in your application – please refer to a tax professional for clarification of eligibility.
Q: What's the best window treatment for a two-story foyer in a River Hill colonial?
Foyer windows in two stories should be either plantation shutters or motorized cellular shutters – manually operating them at this height is impractical. Motorized cellular shades give the cleanest appearance and are completely automatic. Plantation shutters provide an old fashioned architectural look. We’ll bring samples and detailed photos of both options for comparable homes during your consultation.
