My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    These are actually 3% openness. Photos are certainly helpful, but shades can still look different when they're in your windows. We highly recommend that our customers order free fabric samples. You can order them right on the product page. If you have any other questions, please let us know!

    We make blinds and shades in custom sizes, and many of them can span great heights and widths. However, the maximum sizes depend on which product you're interested in.

    Are you wanting a solar shade like the one pictured above, or horizontal blinds like these?

    These solar shades are a 3% - They seem pretty sheer for 3?
