Homeowners across Spokane are rethinking their window treatments—and for good reason. In 2025, custom window coverings aren’t just about aesthetics. They’re helping homeowners improve comfort, efficiency, and control throughout their living spaces. Whether renovating an older home or finishing a new build, more people are turning to custom solutions for a better fit, smarter features, and elevated design.
Here are seven reasons why custom window coverings are worth the upgrade.
No two homes—or windows—are exactly alike. Stock blinds and shades often leave gaps or require extra trimming that detracts from the finished look. Custom window coverings are made to measure, ensuring a clean, seamless fit that complements your home’s architecture and enhances curb appeal.
At Spokane Blinds, every product is tailored to your exact specifications. From wide picture windows to arched or angled designs, the fit is always precise. You can explore custom window coverings to see how professional sizing and selection make all the difference.
Spokane homeowners are no strangers to weather extremes. From freezing winters to hot summer afternoons, windows are a major source of heat gain and loss. Custom coverings—especially those designed with insulation in mind—can help regulate indoor temperatures and reduce reliance on heating and cooling systems.
Products like Duette® Honeycomb Shades are engineered with energy efficiency in mind, trapping air at the window to keep rooms more comfortable year-round.
Custom window treatments give homeowners more control over how much light enters each room—and when. Whether you’re trying to block afternoon glare in the kitchen or create a dark, restful environment in the bedroom, light filtering and room-darkening options are available for every need—and they can even help elevate your living room design in the process.
With operating styles like top-down/bottom-up, you can enjoy natural light while maintaining privacy at eye level—perfect for street-facing spaces.
Custom window coverings open the door to designer fabrics, exclusive textures, and handcrafted finishes that simply aren’t available in stores. Whether you love clean lines or cozy layers, Spokane Blinds offers curated styles to match your home’s unique look and feel.
From the crisp simplicity of Designer Roller Shades to the timeless elegance of Vignette® Roman Shades, there’s a solution for every room—and every taste.
More homeowners are embracing automation for everyday convenience. With PowerView® Automation, custom window coverings can adjust automatically throughout the day based on time, temperature, or even voice command.
This technology integrates with popular smart home systems and offers app-based scheduling for effortless control—even when you’re away.
Well-designed window coverings do more than complete a room—they contribute to a polished, high-end look that buyers notice. Custom treatments are considered a semi-permanent upgrade that can enhance both interior style and exterior appearance.
By investing in premium coverings with professional installation, Spokane homeowners are boosting resale value and setting their homes apart in a competitive market.
Whether you’re furnishing a nursery, modernizing a lake house, or managing glare in a home office, custom coverings can be designed around your lifestyle. Choose from cordless and motorized options for added safety and convenience, or select specialty fabrics to reduce allergens, soften acoustics, or protect furniture from sun damage.
At Spokane Blinds, we help match every product to how the space is actually used—not just how it looks.
