Window Treatment Services in Vail, CO
Shades, lined drapery and motorization for Vail homes, condos and second homes.
Call Us Now (303) 355-4223At 8,150 feet, sun bouncing off fresh snow comes through Vail windows harder than anything in Denver, and many homes here sit empty for weeks between visits. Window treatment services in Vail have to solve both problems: protect the furniture while nobody is home, and frame the Gore Range when you are. Cherry Creek Shade & Drapery has been making window coverings since 1968.
We are a family business based in Denver. Betty and Dick Hess founded it; Bonnie and Doug Kershner own it now. Vail projects are planned as trips over Vail Pass: a free in-home consultation with a designer, then a return visit to install once everything is ready.
Shades, drapery, motorization, upholstery and bedding all come from one window treatment company, which makes a full refresh much simpler to coordinate from out of town.
Window Treatments for Vail Homes That Sit Empty Between Visits
A second home in East Vail or Intermountain might go a month without anyone opening the blinds. In that time, a south-facing sofa can fade a full shade. Window treatment services Vail owners need start with that empty month, not the weekend they are in town.
Shades on a schedule close on bright afternoons and open at dusk, so the house looks lived-in and the rugs keep their color. It also saves a property manager a walk through the house before guests arrive.
Motorized Window Treatments for Snow Glare and Two-Story Glass
Mountain houses in Vail are built around glass: two-story living rooms, gable-end windows, sliding doors onto decks. Motorized window treatments are the practical way to run all of it, especially the top windows nobody can reach.
We install motorized shading with battery or hardwired motors depending on the house. Solar screen fabric cuts snow glare while keeping the view of the slopes, and window shades installation on angled gable windows is planned at the consultation so each shade fits its opening.
Lined Drapery and Curtain Installation for Cold Vail Nights
Vail winter nights can drop below zero, and big glass loses heat fast. Interlined drapery adds a real layer between a cold window and the room, and curtain and drapery installation with returns to the wall keeps drafts from sneaking around the edges.
Choose from fabrics that suit timber and stone interiors, then pair them with lined drapery on hardware heavy enough for a 20-foot ceiling.
Window Blinds, Shades and Shutters Installation From East Vail to West Vail
Condo buildings in Vail Village and Lionshead vary a lot in window depth, so window blinds installation starts with checking whether an inside mount will even fit. West Vail duplexes and East Vail houses each bring their own quirks. We measure every window before anything is ordered.
Window shutters installation suits bathrooms and bunk rooms where you want privacy without fabric. Custom window treatments in a mountain home also have to live with very dry air, so we steer you toward shade options and materials suited to it.
Why Vail Owners Hire a Denver Shop With 1968 Roots
Vail has limited choices for custom window coverings. A family business working since 1968 gives you another, and one that can coordinate drapery, shades and upholstery as a single project.
Installation is scheduled with the weather in mind, since Vail Pass closes for storms often enough in winter to change plans. Ask any contractor working in your home for a certificate of insurance; it is a reasonable request anywhere. Our window treatment services in Vail are planned so the drive up I-70 covers everything in one trip where possible.
Vail Valley Window Treatments in Avon, Edwards and Beaver Creek
Our Vail trips reach the rest of the valley too: Minturn, Eagle-Vail, Avon, Beaver Creek and Edwards. If you watch for the bighorn sheep on the hillsides above East Vail each winter, you know the stretch of I-70 we mean. Typing window treatments near me from a Vail condo? We will come to you.
If you also keep a house on the Front Range, our window treatment services in Cherry Hills Village and Castle Rock window coverings follow the same design-first process. One search for window treatments near me can cover both of your homes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you really provide window treatment services in Vail from Denver?
Yes. Vail is part of our service area. We plan window treatment services in Vail as trips: a free in-home consultation to measure and show samples, then a return visit for installation.
Can you work with my Vail property manager while I am away?
Yes. Many Vail homes are second homes, and we can coordinate access and scheduling with a property manager while keeping you informed.
Which shades protect furniture in a Vail home that sits empty?
Motorized shades on a schedule, using solar screen or light-filtering fabric, close during the brightest hours and open in the evening. That protects floors and upholstery from the strong sun at Vail's elevation.
Will drapery help keep a Vail great room warmer?
Interlined drapery adds insulation at the glass and cuts drafts, especially with returns that close the gap at the wall. It will not replace good windows, but it helps on cold nights.
Does weather on Vail Pass affect window treatment installation?
It can. Winter storms close the pass from time to time, so we schedule installation days with the forecast in mind and keep you posted if anything changes.
How long does a mountain-home project take?
Most orders take 2 to 10 weeks from order to install, depending on the product, with custom drapery and motorized systems at the longer end.
Do you also do upholstery and bedding for mountain homes?
Yes. We make custom bedding, upholstery and other soft goods, so a refresh can include the sofa and the beds along with the windows.
Can I see fabrics before you come up?
Stop by the showroom at 2438 East 6th Avenue in Cherry Creek on your way out of Denver, Monday through Friday 9 to 5 or Saturday 10 to 3. Otherwise a designer brings samples to the house.
