Custom Blinds for Barrie Homes & New Builds

Absolutely — new build whole-home installs are one of our most common jobs in Barrie. We coordinate directly with your move-in date, measure every window in a single visit, and complete the full installation in one day. Whether you're moving into Innis-Shore, Holly, Painswick, or anywhere across south Barrie, we'll have your home ready before you unpack.

We guarantee a written quote within 72 hours of your free in-home consultation. We visit, measure every window, and get everything back to you fast — no chasing, no waiting. For most projects in the Barrie area, we can book your in-home visit within a few days of your enquiry.

Barrie gets intense afternoon sun from the southwest, especially in summer. Solar shades are ideal for living rooms and main floor windows — they cut glare and block UV damage without blocking your view of the yard or lake. A 3–5% openness factor gives you visibility while significantly reducing heat gain. Zebra blinds are also a great option for rooms where you want more flexibility.

For Barrie families and commuters, motorized blinds are increasingly popular — and for good reason. You can schedule them to open and close around your commute, control them from your phone when you're stuck in traffic on the 400, and integrate them with Alexa or Google Home. They're especially useful for hard-to-reach windows and anyone who wants to automate their home's light and privacy without thinking about it.

Cellular (honeycomb) shades are our top recommendation for energy efficiency. Their unique pocket structure traps air between the blind and the glass, reducing heat loss through windows by up to 25% in winter. Double-cell versions provide even more insulation and are especially worth considering for older Barrie homes with larger or drafty windows.

For waterfront homes on Kempenfelt Bay, solar shades are the go-to choice — they preserve your lake views while cutting harsh summer glare and blocking UV damage to floors and furniture. For bedrooms, blackout roller shades give you complete privacy and sleep control. We also recommend moisture-resistant faux wood blinds for any rooms exposed to lake humidity, particularly lower-floor and bathroom spaces.

We accept cash, cheque, e-transfer, and all major credit cards. A 50% deposit is required when placing your order, with the remainder due on installation day. Full payment terms are outlined in your written quote before any work begins.
