You’re dealing with Texas summers that turn your home into an oven by noon. Your AC runs constantly, your electric bill keeps climbing, and certain rooms are just unbearable. That’s not a window problem—it’s a heat gain problem.
Roller shades designed for North Texas conditions block solar heat before it ever hits your glass. You get immediate relief in the rooms that matter most. Bedrooms stay dark when you need sleep. Living rooms stay comfortable without cranking the thermostat down to 68.
Blackout roller shades give you complete darkness and privacy. Light-filtering options let in a soft glow without the glare or heat. Motorized systems mean you’re not climbing over furniture to adjust blinds on high windows. You control your environment the way you actually live in it.
We operate out of Arlington as part of A Plus Home Remodel, a company that’s been handling construction projects across the DFW area for over 10 years. We’re not a franchise or a national chain—we’re local, and we understand what Edgecliff homeowners deal with.
Our showroom gives you a chance to see fabrics, test motorized controls, and compare blackout versus light-filtering options in person. We measure your windows during a free consultation, show you samples that fit your style and budget, and install everything ourselves. No subcontractors. No surprises.
If something needs adjusting after installation, you call us directly at 682-837-4233. We’re still here, and we’re still local.
You schedule a free consultation, and we come to your home in Edgecliff to measure your windows and talk through what you’re dealing with. Too much heat? Need blackout blinds for a bedroom? Want motorized roller shades for hard-to-reach windows? We walk through it with you.
We show you fabric samples, explain the difference between light-filtering and blackout options, and talk about inside mount versus outside mount. You pick what works for your space and your budget. We don’t upsell—we help you make the right call.
Once you approve everything, we order your custom roller blinds. When they arrive, our installation team handles the entire job. We mount the brackets, hang the shades, test the operation, and make sure everything works smoothly. If you went with motorized options, we program the controls and show you how to use them.
After we’re done, you’ve got roller shade blinds that fit your windows exactly, block the heat you wanted blocked, and operate the way you need them to. If anything needs tweaking, we handle it.
Ready to get started?
You’re not buying generic roller blinds for windows off a big-box shelf. You’re getting window treatments built specifically for your measurements, your style, and your functional needs in Edgecliff.
Blackout roller shades block 100% of light—perfect for bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms where you need complete darkness. Light-filtering fabrics soften harsh Texas sun without making rooms feel like caves. You can see out during the day while maintaining privacy from the street.
Interior roller shades come in dozens of colors and textures. Modern neutrals, bold accent colors, natural weaves—you pick what fits your home. Motorized options work with remotes or integrate with smart home systems like Alexa and Google Home. Cordless designs keep things clean and safe if you’ve got kids or pets.
Energy efficiency matters here. Edgecliff sits in Tarrant County, where summer heat is relentless and old windows let in way too much solar gain. The right roller shade setup can cut your cooling costs by 20-30% during peak months. That’s real money back in your pocket, and it’s why so many homeowners in the DFW area are upgrading their window treatments now.
Blackout roller shades block 100% of light. When they’re down, the room goes completely dark—no light leaks around the edges, no glow coming through the fabric. You use these in bedrooms where you need total darkness for sleep, in nurseries where babies nap during the day, or in media rooms where screen glare is a problem.
Light-filtering roller shades let in a soft, diffused glow while still blocking the harsh glare and heat from direct sun. You get natural light without the intensity. These work well in living rooms, kitchens, or home offices where you want brightness but not the blinding Texas sun beating through your windows.
Both options block UV rays that fade your furniture and flooring. Both help with energy efficiency by reducing heat gain. The choice comes down to how much light control you need in each specific room.
If you’ve got high windows, large windows, or multiple windows in one room, motorized roller shades make your life significantly easier. You’re not stretching over furniture or using a pole to adjust blinds every time the sun shifts. You press a button or use your phone, and they move.
Motorized options also integrate with smart home systems. You can program your blackout blinds to lower automatically at sunset or raise at sunrise. If you’re out of town, you can adjust them remotely to make it look like someone’s home. That’s a real security benefit in Tarrant County neighborhoods.
The upfront cost is higher than manual roller shades, but the convenience pays off daily. If you’re already investing in custom window treatments, motorized controls are worth considering—especially for windows you’d otherwise avoid adjusting because they’re too much hassle.
Roller shades designed for solar heat control can reduce your cooling costs by 20-30% during summer months. That’s not a vague estimate—it’s based on how much heat gain you’re blocking before it ever reaches your windows.
Let’s say your electric bill runs $300 per month in July and August. Cutting that by 25% saves you $75 per month, or $150 over the peak summer season. Over a few years, that adds up to real money. And you’re more comfortable in your home because your AC isn’t fighting a losing battle against the sun.
The key is choosing the right fabric and installation method. Blackout roller shades offer the most heat blocking. Light-filtering options still help but won’t cut as much heat. Outside-mounted roller blinds create a bigger barrier than inside mounts. We walk through these details during your consultation so you understand what works best for your specific windows and budget in Edgecliff.
Once your custom roller blinds arrive, installation typically takes a few hours depending on how many windows we’re covering. For a standard home with 8-10 windows, we’re usually done in half a day. Larger projects with motorized systems or complex window shapes might take a full day.
The timeline from consultation to installation runs about 2-3 weeks. We measure your windows during the free consultation, you approve the fabrics and options, and then we order everything custom-made to your exact specifications. Once the roller shades arrive at our Arlington location, we schedule your installation at a time that works for you.
We don’t rush the job. Our installers make sure every bracket is level, every shade operates smoothly, and every motorized control is programmed correctly before we leave. You’re not dealing with a quick in-and-out—we’re making sure your investment works right from day one.
Yes. Custom roller shades are built to your exact window measurements, whether you’ve got narrow bathroom windows, wide picture windows, or tall floor-to-ceiling glass. We measure everything during the consultation, and the shades are manufactured specifically for your openings.
Arched windows, angled windows, bay windows—we handle those too. Some shapes require specialized mounting or fabric cuts, but that’s part of what custom means. You’re not trying to make a stock size work and dealing with gaps or poor coverage.
Edgecliff homes come in all styles, and we’ve installed roller shade blinds in everything from older traditional houses to newer modern builds. If you’ve got an unusual window situation, we’ve likely dealt with something similar. Bring it up during the consultation, and we’ll walk through the best approach for your specific setup.
Roller shades are one of the lowest-maintenance window treatments you can install. Most of the time, a quick wipe with a damp cloth handles any dust or smudges. You’re not dealing with horizontal slats that collect grime or fabric folds that trap dirt.
For deeper cleaning, you can vacuum the fabric with a brush attachment or spot-clean with mild soap and water. Blackout roller shades and light-filtering fabrics are designed to resist stains and fading, especially the materials we use that are built for Texas sun exposure.
Motorized roller blinds need even less hands-on maintenance because you’re not constantly touching them to raise and lower. The mechanisms are built to last years without issue. If something does go wrong—a motor stops working or a fabric snags—you call us at 682-837-4233, and we handle the repair. We’re local to Tarrant County, so you’re not waiting weeks for a service call from some distant corporate office.
