Most frequently asked questions by our clients
Custom window shade pricing varies based on fabric, opacity, size, and whether you choose manual or motorized operation. As a general range, quality custom roller shades typically start around $200–$400 per window, with cellular and Roman shades trending higher, and motorized options adding $150–$400 per shade, depending on the system.
Because Ventus includes consultation, measurement, and professional installation in the product price — with no itemized service fees — your final quote covers everything from first conversation to finished installation. We provide exact pricing at your free in-home consultation once we've seen your windows.
Roller shades are the simplest profile, a single panel of fabric on a tube, ideal for clean modern interiors.
Roman shades fold into soft horizontal pleats when raised, giving a more tailored, traditional look.
Cellular shades (also called honeycomb shades) have a unique pleated structure with insulating air pockets, making them the most energy-efficient option, ideal for drafty windows or rooms with significant heating and cooling demands.
At your consultation, we bring samples of all three so you can compare in your own light.
Yes. Most of our shade styles, roller, Roman, cellular, and woven wood, are available with blackout fabric options or blackout linings. For complete light blockage, we recommend pairing blackout shades with side channels or overlapping outside mounts, which we'll specify at your consultation. This is one of the most common upgrades for primary bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms.
For most homeowners, yes, particularly for hard-to-reach windows, large banks of windows, and bedrooms or media rooms where scheduled operation makes daily life easier. Modern motorized shades are quiet, work with smart-home systems like Alexa, Google Home, and HomeKit, and battery-operated options mean no electrician is required. Programming, scenes, schedules, and app setup are included with every motorized shade we install — there's no additional fee for the technology integration.
Lead times typically run 3–5 weeks from order to installation, depending on the manufacturer, fabric availability, and motorization. Norman USA orders generally turn faster than fully custom Lafayette fabrications. We confirm exact lead times at the time of your order and schedule installation as soon as your shades arrive.
