Roller Shades In Blue Springs
Roller & Solar Shades in Blue Springs, MO
Roller Shades with a solar screen fabric are the request we hear most from Blue Springs family rooms. The back of a two story in Plaza Estates or Stonecreek can take the afternoon sun straight onto the TV, and a screen fabric cuts that glare while you still see the yard, with our own team measuring, quoting and installing every shade.
Where It Fits In Blue Springs
Where Roller Shades and solar shades fit in Blue Springs
From the front window of a Kingsridge raised ranch to the great room glass at Chapman Farms, a Roller Shade suits nearly every window in a Blue Springs house, and it rolls up out of sight when you want the light back.
- Family rooms in Plaza Estates and StonecreekThe 1980s and 1990s two stories put the TV on the wall across from the back windows. A 3% screen stops the glare on the screen and gives you daytime privacy from the yard next door.
- Homes facing the lake at Chapman FarmsNew builds around the 30 acre lake have tall, plain windows with clean trim. A 10% screen keeps the water and the walking trail in view, and the shade tucks into a three inch roll at the top.
- Raised ranch living roomsThe wide upstairs window on the front of a Kingsridge raised ranch looks right at the street. A light filtering fabric keeps the room private day and night and still lets the daylight through.
- Kitchen sliders to the deckA slider onto the deck has a handle in the way of most treatments. Magnetic hold downs keep a Roller Shade flat to the glass and clear of the handle when the door is open.
Worth Knowing
Picking a screen fabric for a Blue Springs family room
In a Blue Springs two story from the 1980s or 1990s, the family room and kitchen sit across the back of the house, so the direction the lot faces decides how bright those rooms get. When the back faces west, the sun comes through the family room glass from mid afternoon until it sets, right across the TV. A Roller Shade is our first answer for that window, because it handles the glare in the down position and rolls out of the way the rest of the day. On a wide or tall window at Chapman Farms or Eagles Ridge, we recommend a motor.
Openness is the first thing to decide on a solar shade. A 10% screen keeps the clearest view and still takes the glare off the glass, which suits a room looking out at the lake at Chapman Farms or the trees behind a Stonecreek lot. A 3% screen gives you daytime privacy when the neighbor's deck sits close. Light filtering and decorative fabrics keep the room private at night as well, and blackout is meant for bedrooms. We carry thousands of fabrics, and your Design Specialist brings samples to hold up in your own window at the hour the sun is worst.
For a bedroom, plan on channels. Every Roller Shade leaves a small gap down each side, and blackout fabric makes that sliver of morning light easier to see, so in a room that has to be dark we add side and bottom channels. Before we leave, you have an itemized quote, and the price holds 180 days. Interior shades take 4 to 6 weeks from order to install, and our full time Install Techs finish most Blue Springs homes in one day. We also serve nearby Independence and Lee's Summit.

Straight Answers
Roller Shades questions from Blue Springs homeowners
Yes, that's what a screen fabric is made for. A 3% screen takes the most glare off the glass and adds daytime privacy, and a 10% screen keeps more of the yard in view. Your Design Specialist holds both up at your family room window so you can see the difference on your own TV wall.
Yes. We mount the shade so it clears the door handle and add magnetic hold downs at the bottom so it stays flat while the door is in use. A slider that opens all summer is a good place for a motor, and the fabric can match the family room so the back of the house looks like one set.
Yes. The wide upstairs window on a Kingsridge raised ranch takes one shade across the whole opening or two side by side. Since it faces the street, we recommend a light filtering fabric there, because a screen fabric shows the room once the lamps are on at night.
Not on its own. Blackout fabric stops the light through the shade, but every Roller Shade has a small gap at each side, and at sunrise that gap is what you notice. Side and bottom channels close it, and your Design Specialist will show you both versions at the window.
No. Plan on 4 to 6 weeks from order to install, and most Blue Springs projects go in on a single day. Free paper temporary shades go up on every window you ordered for, and our Install Techs take them down when the real shades arrive.
Yes. Every Roller Shade carries our Carefree Guarantee, with a lifetime product warranty that transfers to the next owner if you sell and our Five Year Service Guarantee on defects. If something goes wrong, you call our office and an Install Tech comes out to fix it.
