Where It Fits In Raymore
Where wood blinds and faux wood blinds fit in Raymore
For a family buying custom window treatments for the first time, blinds cover the whole house at the lowest initial investment, with privacy, a view out and no cords.
- The whole house on one budgetMatched faux wood blinds in every window of a new build off I-49 give the house one clean look from the street and cost less than any other custom product we install.
- Kitchens and bathroomsFaux wood holds up to steam and splashes, so the bathroom and the kitchen sink window get the same blind as the rest of the house and wipe clean.
- Kids and petsOur cordless options leave nothing hanging in a nursery or near the dog's spot by the back door. They're what we recommend for every Raymore family with small kids.
- Front rooms on a close lotTilted slats let you see the sidewalk while the sidewalk sees only slats. On a tight lot with the neighbor close, that privacy matters every day.
Worth Knowing
A practical first step up from builder blinds
Many new houses in Raymore come with thin vinyl blinds, and families find out quickly that they don't last. Wood and Faux Wood Blinds are the practical replacement: they're the lowest initial investment of anything we install, they give you privacy from the street with a view out when the slats are tilted, and matched in every front window they give the house a clean look from the curb. On the closer lots in neighborhoods like Stonegate and Eagle Glen, that daily privacy is a big reason people call.
Real wood or faux wood is the main decision. Faux wood is the pick for kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms, because steam and splashes don't bother it, and it costs less, so many first time buyers use it throughout the house. Real wood is lighter to lift on a wide window and takes a stain, which matters if the house has a stained front door or wood trim to match. Both come in whites and off whites matched to painted trim, and both come cordless. Your Design Specialist brings slat samples so you can check the color against your casings.
Tilted closed, blinds block a good amount of light, but a south bedroom that needs to be fully dark is better with a room darkening shade, and your Design Specialist will show you both. The consultation is free, every window is measured on site, and your itemized quote is written on the spot and held for 180 days. Blinds take 4 to 6 weeks from order, and our own full time Install Techs install a whole house of blinds in a day and take the old ones away.

Straight Answers
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds questions from Raymore homeowners
Yes, Wood & Faux Wood Blinds are the lowest initial investment of anything we install, and faux wood is the lower priced of the two. The total depends on the number and size of your windows, the operating system and any valance, and the itemized quote lets you do the whole house or go in stages.
Yes. Every Wood & Faux Wood Blind is available in Cordless, Cordless Lift & Lock or Motorized, and all three are child safe. There's no cord to wrap or pull, and the blind lifts from the bottom rail.
Yes, and it's what we recommend. A bathroom window gets steam every morning, and faux wood is an engineered polymer that won't crack, chip or fade. Use real wood in the living room or office if you want the lighter lift or a stain to match the trim.
During the day, yes. Tilt the slats and you see out while the neighbor's window sees a blind. At night with the lamps on, close the slats fully, and for a bedroom that also needs to be dark we'll show you a shade.
Yes, to painted trim and to stain. Faux wood comes in a range of whites and off whites, real wood takes a stain to match a front door or a stair rail, and the samples come to your house so you see them against your own casings.
Yes. Our Carefree Guarantee covers Wood & Faux Wood Blinds with a lifetime product warranty that transfers to the next owner, five years of free service on defects, and one Life Happens repair if an accident damages a blind.
