Custom blinds and roller shades in Upper Arlington
Custom blinds and roller shades are two of the most requested upgrades in Upper Arlington homes. We install Norman wood, faux wood, and aluminum blinds, cordless or motorized, at about $150 to $600 per window installed.

For older homes with character, we also install plantation shutters and Roman shades, all measured window by window. See custom blinds or roller shades.

What works in Upper Arlington homes
Plantation shutters and tailored Roman shades suit the traditional styles common here, and cellular shades add insulation to older windows that let the cold in. Because older homes often have windows that are not quite square, every opening is measured individually and every treatment is made to fit. Upper Arlington’s Old Arlington historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
