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.

Cellular Shades: Best Thermal Control

6 years ago

I need thermal control for east-facing windows in bedrooms. These windows fall in bed niches and the heat gets pretty intense in the mornings. Can you recommend a good quality insulating cellular shade? Does Energy Shield by Levelor make a significant impact on the temperature?
