Q&A: Do you, as a landlord, provide window treatments (curtains) for your tenants?

Question by Starlight: Do you, as a landlord, provide window treatments (curtains) for your tenants?
And, if so, about how much do you spend per curtain/set of 2 curtains. Do you get really nice ones or economical ones at places like Target or Walmart?

Answer by garrisonbight
NO… it’s an optional thing and most renters won’t take care of the window coverings anyway… how many rental houses have you seen with venitian blinds that have had the slats all bent and broken… you never see that in owner occupied homes… just rental units.

They can buy their own window coverings or go without… and most of that trash uses aluminum foil to cover their windows anyway.

click on living and storage, then textiles, then curtains and blinds, they are called fringe curtains!

I have attached a rod to mine with no problems!

These look much nicer than the picture, but thought it might give you an idea!

Window Treatment – The Blind Advantage

Windows can be the focal point in interior decoration. Designers rely on windows to regulate the lighting in a houses rooms. The furniture arrangement usually harmonizes with the windows. Hence, appropriate focus on and proper treatment of the windows is a very important factor in decorating or redecorating a house because windows complement the furnishings of the rooms.

Just what does proper window treatment require? Proper window treatment entails detailed cleaning maintenance. It entails decorating the windows with window coverings. You can strip away heavy window coverings and replace them with simple shades like valance or blinds. Always consider that natural light inside the house is very essential.

You can choose light and cool colors for your window coverings to give a comfy ambience in your room. Light colors can add visual interest and must blend with the other parts of the room, so they will not clash with your rooms look. Make sure that your window coverings regulate the amount of sunlight that enters into house because too much direct sunlight makes the room warm and unpleasant to dwell in.

Always remember that a badly chosen window treatment can look like an eyesore and draw attention to them. Proper window treatment should be designed to create a sense of harmony with the rest of the decor in the room. Before choosing any kind of treatment for your windows, go through the entire range of available window treatments. Indianapolis has some of the best manufacturers of customized window coverings. They produce the entire range of window coverings from curtains, valance, blinds, and many more.

Blinds have the advantage of giving your window the beautiful look it needs. You can replace your old curtains with blinds and have them ready for dry cleaning. Indianapolis has dry cleaning stations that offer high quality and affordable services. You will be pleased to know that your old curtains will look so much better when they are dry-cleaned.

So add that final touch to your home with your chosen window treatments. Indianapolis has many brands of window blinds and other top of the line window treatments may just be a call away.

Looking for window treatments that block out all light.?

Question by che che: Looking for window treatments that block out all light.?
My daughter suffers with Migraines and needs complete darkness.
We have tried dark colored mini blind and window shades but even a crack of sunlight is pain full. Are there any ideas from other Migraine sufferers that might help? Any web sites that offer window treatment would be welcome.

Best answer:

Answer by kryssa
You can get black out for your windows its like window tenting on a car but for your home windows it is fairly cheap and u can get it at places like home depot and lowes. I’m sure Walmart even has it and to be on the safe side you can have the blinds up and they have black out shades. And if you just want, try to put velcro on the shades and stick it together.

I hope I helped.
