Framed panels with wide louvers, custom-fit to each window — a classic, built-in look.

As simple or as smart as you like — mix by room. Shutters are the exception: their louvers tilt by hand.

Manual

Cord, cordless, or crank. Simple, dependable, budget-friendly.

Motorized

One remote runs a shade — or a whole wall. Great for tall windows, sliders, screens, and awnings.

Automation

Schedules and voice commands — open with the morning, close against the afternoon sun.

Questions about blinds & shades in Tampa, FL

How much do custom shades cost in Tampa, FL?
It depends on product, fabric, size, and manual vs. motorized. We start with a no-obligation estimate from your idea — photos and rough sizes are enough — and confirm exact pricing at the free on-site visit.
Is the in-home consultation really free?
Yes. If the estimate sounds right, the on-site visit is free — we measure, show fabrics and options, and give final pricing at your home.
Do I need to measure my windows myself?
Rough width and height are plenty for the first estimate. We take exact measurements at the free on-site visit, and installation is handled for you.
Can my shades work with my smart home?
Yes. Motorized shades, screens, and awnings can be automated and are compatible with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Savant, Crestron, and Control4 — voice control, remotes, apps, and schedules included.
What areas near Tampa do you serve?
Tampa plus communities up to about 50 miles away — see the full list above, or call to check your town.
What’s better for a Tampa lanai — a screen or an awning?
Different jobs: screens enclose the opening (shade, privacy, bug relief, view kept); awnings shade from above and retract away. Many homes use both — we’ll walk through it at the consultation.
Do you offer service in Spanish?
Yes — ¡hablamos español! Call or email us in whichever language you prefer.
Do you install plantation shutters in Tampa, FL?
Yes — measured, custom-fit, and installed within 50 miles of Tampa. Louvers tilt by hand for light and privacy; framed panels give a classic, built-in look.
