Incorporating Window Treatments In Your Sacramento Home Remodel

April 10, 2017

The time has finally come. You’re ready to pull the trigger on that home improvement project you’ve been thinking of for months. But before you do any DIY work or invite one of the best Sacramento remodelers in, you need to be sure you’re planning out everything accordingly–especially in regards to how you’ll integrate windows and window treatments like shutters into the project.

Here’s what you should do before, during, and after your remodel to make it look phenomenal for years and years.

Think About Why Windows Are Important to Your Remodel

The majority of remodelers will concur that windows are one of the chief parts of home architecture. Windows are primarily responsible for bringing in lighting, which can drastically impact the look of a room despite any other design choice on the inside. So before your remodel starts gathering steam, think about different things you’d want to see in your windows. Could you use more light coming in? Do you want better control over that natural light? Do you need better privacy, noise control, etc.?

Thinking about any of those questions can make a sizeable impact on what your remodel needs to include, so give your windows some attention and the time they deserve.

Get Your Window Treatment Provider Involved Early In the Project

If window treatments will be an element of your remodel, try to get your window treatment installer talking to your home remodeler early in the process. With so many moving parts in a home remodel, there are several benefits in getting all your service providers talking:

  • Each contractor can get a solid timeline established, making the project go faster and more smoothly.

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

  • Fewer opportunities for mistakes being made in a remodel that leaves you with anything other than your dream home.

  • A more cohesive direction for the style of your remodel - resulting in a better looking final product.

It’s also helpful to a window treatment installer that has worked with home builders in the past. Sunburst Shutters Sacramento has working relationships with several Sacramento builders, designers and remodelers, so we know how to best work with those professionals.

Choosing a window treatment company that often partners with home remodelers can give you an idea of what your space will eventually look like, as well as reduce the time spent waiting before you can enjoy your remodeled home, not to mention a better-looking finished product.
