Incorporating Window Treatments In Your Cleveland Home Remodel

April 10, 2017

At long last, the time is here. You’re ready to get started that home remodel you’ve been thinking about doing for months. But before you start doing any DIY work or invite one of the best Cleveland remodelers in, you want to be sure you’re planning out everything accordingly–especially when it comes to how you integrate windows and window treatments like shutters into your project.

Let’s talk through what you should do before, during, and after your home project to make it look incredible for years and years.

Think About How Important Windows Are to a Remodel

Most remodelers will tell you that windows are one of the chief elements of home architecture. Windows are chiefly responsible for bringing in lighting, which can drastically change the look of a room regardless of any other design choice on the inside. So before your remodel starts gathering steam, think about different things you’d want to see from your windows. Would you prefer more light coming in? Would it be helpful to have better control over that natural light? Do you need better privacy or noise control?

Answering any of those questions can make a big impact on what needs to happen in your project, so give those questions their due diligence.

Get Your Window Treatment Provider Involved Early On

If new window treatments are going to be part of your remodel, get your window treatment provider in contact with your home designer early in the process. With so many moving parts in a home remodel, there’s a lot of benefit in getting all your service providers talking:

  • Everybody can get a working timeline in place, making your home remodel go quicker and easier.

  • Your window treatment installers can get in, get window measurements, and offer ideas upfront, before any other work happens.

  • Less of a chance of mistakes made in a remodel that results in something other than the dream house you want.

  • A more cohesive direction for the style of your remodel - giving you a better looking space when it’s finished.
