Finesse, Inc.First time home buyers found a foreclosed home that was abandoned for over a year. The previous owners removed ducting, copper pipes, punched holes in doors and removed the furnace and water heater unit.
Finesse, Inc. was hired to completely renovate two bathroom, kitchen, bring the garage up to code, install a new furnace and ducting and upgrade the electrical with a sub-panel. Re-configuring the walls in both bathrooms allowed to create a real master bath. During the course of construction the clients agreed to open up one wall to create a better flow between the living room and kitchen.
Many decisions were made together to create a beautiful and peaceful environment for a young family just getting started.

highlandSkylight blackout blinds have to be held against the frame rather than hung below it, and that one difference is why a loft stays bright when the same fabric works downstairs. A blind on a sloped window sags away from the glass and daylight spills round all four edges. The fabric is rarely the problem.
Key Takeaways
On a vertical window, weight pulls the blind flat to the glass and the only leaks are two narrow strips an overlap will cover. Tilt the same window to forty degrees and the physics invert. That weight now drags the fabric away from the frame, opening a wedge of daylight along the bottom rail and a thinner one at the head. Flat roof skylight blinds have it worst, with no angle at all for the fabric to rest against.
If you have already bought a roller and taped the edges, you know this. Choosing blackout blinds for a skylight is a decision about the fixing.
Why Skylight Blackout Blinds Have to Be Captured at the Edges
The fix is a channel down each side of the reveal with the fabric running inside it. The lip overlaps the fabric edge, so no straight sightline runs from glass to room.
Tension matters as much as the track. A limp fabric bellies between two channels on a shallow pitch, which is why cell structures hold their shape better than a flat roller. The 1ClickBlinds honeycomb panel works that way. The head needs its own answer: a channel stops where the frame stops, so without a cassette a strip of glass glows above the roller. Skylight blackout blinds are only as good as their weakest edge.
Measuring, and the Velux Question
Most roof windows carry a code on a plate at the top of the sash, visible when you swing it open. Skylight blackout blinds sold as Velux blackout blinds are sized to those codes, so read the plate before ordering. Velux blackout blinds will not always sit in another brand's frame, and blinds for Velux windows cut to a generic width rarely capture in the channels.
Heat is worth a thought too. Roof glass takes the sun almost square on at midday, so skylight blackout blinds block heat and light in one action. On flat roof skylight blinds a reflective fabric beats a black one, and the full range is here if you want to compare.
Frequently asked questions
How do you fit a blackout blind to a Velux roof window?
Find the frame code on the plate at the top of the sash and order against it, then fix the two channels before the blind goes in. They must be parallel within a couple of millimetres or the fabric binds. Blinds for Velux windows clip to the frame, so nothing goes into the ceiling.
How do you measure for skylight blinds?
Use the frame code where the window has one, since it gives the exact size without a tape. Without a code, measure the inner frame width and drop at three points each and take the smallest. Note which way the window opens, as that sets where the controls go.
What are skylight blinds?
Blinds made for roof windows rather than wall windows, held along both edges so they stay against the glass at an angle. Blinds for skylight windows come in blackout, reflective and electric forms. The defining feature is the fixing, not the fabric.
Key Takeaways
- Gravity works against you. On a sloping window a hanging blind pulls away from the frame.
- Four edges leak, not two. A roof blind leaks at the sides, head and foot.
- Channels do the real work. A track down both edges keeps the fabric flat to the glass.
- Order by frame code. Blinds for skylight windows are sized from the plate on the sash, not a tape.
