Where We Work In Morton
Where we work in Morton
Downtown Morton and the streets around Main, Hyde Park, Country Aire Estates, Joos Greenview Estates, Fox Creek, Orchard Hills, Fieldstone and Wolf Crossing all get the same free visit.
- The 1960s and 1970s ranchesMorton's population doubled between 1960 and 1970, and the ranches from those years have a picture window facing the street and bedrooms down a hall. Honeycomb Shades for the bedrooms and faux wood for the bath cover most of that house well.
- Hyde Park and Country Aire EstatesHomes built from the end of the 1960s through the 1990s, so the windows change from one house to the next. Every opening is measured on site, and the quote gives each one its own line.
- Joos Greenview Estates and Fox CreekHouses from the early 1990s near Idlewood Park and attached homes from around 2000 are ready for something better than the blinds they came with. Woven wood, Banded Shades and a screen on the patio door are where those calls start.
- Orchard Hills, Fieldstone and Wolf CrossingHomes built since 2003, from ranches off Jefferson Street to large custom houses on the big lots of Wolf Crossing. Tall windows, motors, shutters and patio shades come up on these visits.

Ranches from the boom years and new builds, measured in one visit
Calls from Morton come from a wide spread of houses. The ranches built while the village was doubling in size during the 1960s are full of windows that are due for new coverings, and the newer subdivisions have tall great room glass and builder blinds that were never meant to last. Solar Shield Blinds works in both, along with the condos and the older homes near Main Street.
A Design Specialist brings the samples to your house, because a fabric looks different in a west facing family room at four in the afternoon than it does under store lights. Every window is measured on site and gets its own line on a written quote, which you have before we leave and which holds for 180 days, with no pressure to sign. Interior products take 4 to 6 weeks from order to install, shutters and exterior patio shades take 8 to 10, and Free Temporary Shades go up in the meantime. Our own full time Install Techs do the work, never subcontractors, and the old blinds leave with them.
Every product we install carries the Carefree Guarantee: a lifetime product warranty that moves to the next owner if you sell, five years of free service on defects, and one Life Happens repair for an accident. A patio facing west takes the full afternoon sun in July, and a shade inside the glass does nothing for the people sitting out there. For that, the shade goes outside, as an Exterior Patio Shade under a roof or a Retractable Awning over open concrete. Our office is at 717 Sabrina Dr in East Peoria, and we also work in nearby Washington and Pekin.

Straight Answers
Questions from Morton homeowners
Yes, Morton is in our service area and the visit is free. A Solar Shield Blinds Design Specialist drives over from our East Peoria office at 717 Sabrina Dr with samples of every product, measures each window, and writes the itemized quote at your kitchen table.
Yes. Nothing is ordered from a stock size, so each shade or blind is built to the measurements your Design Specialist takes at that opening. If a frame has shifted over the years, we mount outside the trim or choose a frame that hides it, and we tell you which windows need that before you order.
For glare on the TV with the yard still in view, a Roller Shade in a screen fabric does it, and a motor on a schedule lowers it before the afternoon sun hits. If the heat is on a covered patio outside that window, an Exterior Patio Shade stops the sun before it reaches the glass. Your Design Specialist sorts out which one the window needs while at your house.
Yes. Every window has its own line on the quote, so you can do the bedrooms now and the great room next spring. The price holds for 180 days, and financing is available through Synchrony with up to 18 months at 0% interest.
Exterior Patio Shades take 8 to 10 weeks from order to install and Retractable Awnings take 6 to 8, compared with 4 to 6 weeks for interior products. A consultation in early spring is the way to have the patio covered by summer, and the quote holds 180 days if you want to price it first.
Yes. The Carefree Guarantee includes a lifetime product warranty that transfers to the next owner, five years of free service on defects, one Life Happens repair for an accident, and 30 days after install to swap a product for one of equal or lesser value. Our own Install Techs handle the service calls, with no subcontractors.
