Frequently asked questions about drapery installers

If you have plenty of experience with hanging drapes or installing blinds curtains, it could be quite easy to install your drapes yourself. However, installing drapes requires precise measuring, along with a fair amount of specialized knowledge. A small miscalculation in measurements could become a messy (and potentially expensive) headache. A drapery installation professional will have the tools required to get your drapes installed correctly, they’ll know where to place the hardware, and exactly where to drill the holes for installation.

If your room or home has many windows, it makes even more sense to hire a professional for the job. A drapery installation expert can offer advice about the best way to approach window treatments for each room in your house, and can walk you through the various drapery and curtain options to help you choose the best window treatments for your home. Furthermore, a professional can get all of your drapes installed correctly the first time, so they hang beautifully without any problems. Hiring a pro for drapery installation can save you money, time, and headaches down the road and is a wise investment for any drapery installation project.

For a window treatment pro, drapery installation can be a fairly quick job. However, exactly how long the installation will take depends on a number of factors. The number of windows that need to be covered is one key factor. Another point to consider is whether the windows in your home are fairly standard, or do they offer drapery installation challenges? For example, very big windows, extra-tall windows, slanted windows, odd-shaped windows, and bay windows all offer some challenges for even the most experienced window treatment pro. A pro will know how to install curtains, drapes, or blinds in every kind of window, but these kinds of jobs may take longer than standard installations.

If you decide to install drapes yourself, the job will likely take much longer than if a pro handles the installation. Window covering installation pros know exactly what to measure, and which kinds of hardware will work best for your needs. An untrained homeowner may inadvertently damage expensive hardware and drapery during installation, so it’s best to leave these types of jobs to the pros.

Where you hang drapes depends on what kind of window you want to cover, the size of the window and the distance between the window trim and the ceiling. Some experts say that for standard drapes, the usual height to hang the drapes is halfway between the top of the window casing and the ceiling. But for this formula to work there must be 12 inches between the window casing and the ceiling. Not all homes are designed with windows at this level. Also, not all experts suggest this exact calculation.

Some designers suggest that the higher you put the curtain rod, the taller the room will look. If you have room above your window below the ceiling, you can play with this effect. Better yet, bring in a window treatment or design expert to look at your windows. They’ll be able to help you decide where to hang your drapes for best effect. Each room in each home is unique, so there is no one-size-fits-all formula for hanging drapes.

In order to install drapes you’ll need some specific tools. You’ll need a level, a drill, a ladder, and a measuring tape. But drapery installation is not as simple as it may seem. It takes specialized knowledge to know exactly where to hang the drapes. Certain types of windows require different kinds of drapery installations. For example, bay windows present difficulties because there are three different parts to them. Slanted windows and big picture windows also present challenges. A drapery installation pro will have the tools to get your installation done. They’ll also be able to help you decide what kind of window coverings will work best for your space.

Drapery installation requires very exact measurements, and a keen eye for design. It’s easy to make a small mistake in the installation process which could damage expensive custom drapery or hardware. A window treatment installation pro can get the job done quickly, and make your windows look great. Hiring a pro can save you time and headaches.

Whether or not curtains should touch the floor depends on how you want your window treatments to look. Some window-covering professionals suggest that curtains she just barely touch the floor or hover about a half an inch above the floor. Depending on the type of window and the drapes you’ve chosen, you may prefer to allow the curtains to puddle elegantly below the windows. Allow the curtains to puddle can add sophistication to a room’s design. However, hanging curtains or drapes this way is only appropriate for spaces where there is low foot traffic, and the floors do not need to be cleaned frequently.

It may make sense to consult a window covering installation pro before you purchase your drapes or curtains. It can be easy to purchase curtains that are not the ideal length for your space. A pro might suggest purchasing curtains that are longer than you might expect because of how far below the window they should hang and how far above the window the rods might go. It could save you time, headaches and money to consult a window treatment professional as you tackle your drapery installation project.

Curtains offer privacy. They allow homeowners to control the amount of light in a room. Some types of curtains help with insulation in a room, and some absorb noise from outside. Curtains add to a room’s decor, and can make a room look polished. The cost to install curtains depends on a variety of factors. The number of windows that require treatment and the size and shape of those windows will all play a role in the cost of curtain installation. The type of curtains you have chosen will factor into the cost. Custom curtains, lined curtains, blackout curtains, and off-the-rack curtains all come with different levels of expense.

It may make sense to consult a window treatment installation pro when you are considering installing curtains. There are so many different decisions to make, and you want to make the best choices up front. Inexperienced homeowners may not be aware of all the options from which to choose. A pro can walk you through the various size and fabric options for your new curtains. They’ll know the best way to install curtains on any odd-shaped or tricky windows. A pro can offer a detailed, written estimate for the total cost of your curtain installation.
