Answering Your Frequently Asked Questions About Our Window Treatments

At Katy Blinds & Shutters, we know that selecting the right window treatments can raise many questions. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of frequently asked questions to help you make informed decisions about your custom blinds, shades, and shutters. If you don’t see your question here, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help!

If I’m Moving to the West Houston Area, How Can I Get an Estimate If I’m Not There Yet?

We work with customers relocating to the West Houston area from all over the country—and the world! If you can’t be present, we’ll coordinate with your builder or Realtor to access your home and take measurements. We’ll then provide your estimate via phone, email, or fax and keep you updated throughout the process.

If I’m Building a New Home, Should I Wait Until Closing to Contact You?

No need to wait! We frequently work with homeowners during the construction phase, ensuring that custom window treatments are ready for installation as close to your move-in date as possible. With enough lead time, we can often have everything installed the day you close.

Can I Roll the Cost of My Window Treatments Into My Mortgage?

In most cases, yes! If you haven’t closed on your loan, you can coordinate with your mortgage company to add the cost of your window treatments to your loan. We’ll provide the proposal, and once your loan closes, the funds will be handled by your title company, who will release payment when the installation is complete.

Do You Offer Free In-Home Estimates?

Absolutely! We offer free, no-obligation in-home estimates. One of our experienced sales reps will bring the showroom to you, showing you samples, measuring your windows, and providing an on-the-spot quote.

What Are Your Payment Terms for Window Treatments?

We require a 50% deposit at the time of order, with the remaining balance due upon installation. We accept all major payment methods, including cash, check, Mastercard, Visa, American Express, and Discover.

How Long Will It Take to Get My Window Treatments Installed?

Most custom blinds and shades can be installed in about two weeks. Plantation shutters and other custom products may take longer, depending on the style and current production times. The actual installation shouldn’t take much time, but we will be able to provide you with all the details based on the specifics of your project.

Do You Offer Motorized Options for Window Shades?

Yes! Nearly all of our window shades can be motorized for your convenience. Our motorized options allow you to easily control light and privacy with the touch of a button, adding comfort and modern convenience to any room.

Can You Install Window Treatments for Uniquely Shaped Windows?

Definitely! Whether you have arches, eyebrows, or specialty-shaped windows, we offer a wide range of custom shutters and other window treatments designed to fit your home’s unique needs.

Why Should I Choose You for My Window Treatments?

With years of expertise and our 3-Year Fix-it-Free Satisfaction Guarantee, you can trust us to deliver high-quality, custom window treatments that last. We pride ourselves on top-notch craftsmanship and personalized service from start to finish.
