Think that buying local is only for the produce you find in your grocery store? The trend of supporting locally owned businesses extends beyond just what you put in your fridge. Everything from the furniture you buy to the services you hire can and should be locally sourced – including your window treatments. As a locally-owned business servicing the Greater Toronto Area, we’re happy to find the blinds, shutters, and shades you need while satisfying your desires to shop local.
You may be wondering why there’s been such a concentrated push towards local purchasing. Recent studies have found that limiting your purchases to local businesses can have a profoundly positive effect in your community. First and foremost, it boosts the local economy. Locally owned businesses return nearly 70% of each dollar back to their community, redistributing wealth to other businesses, services, and individuals in the neighbourhood. Each dollar spent has up to four times the economic impact than that of a dollar spent at a non-local business. That means local jobs, income, and development increases.
Secondly, shopping local offers you an extraordinary shopping experience. Independent, locally operated stores have a unique selection of items that you won’t find anywhere else. For example, when you buy your window treatments from a big box store that has locations all over the country, you’re choosing from a national supply. You can say goodbye to having your own distinctive flair for your interior design, as you’ll be showcasing the same blinds or shades on your windows as anyone else who has visited these box stores.
When you check out our selection of blinds, shutters, and shades, you’ll be choosing from a unique collection that no other store will have. You’ll also enjoy the help of our dedicated design consultants, who provide that personal touch missing from so many big corporations. As your locally owned window treatment service, we can still afford to deliver exclusive and customized care when it comes to your blinds, design choices, and installation. Specialized design consultants can discuss your style options according to the size and shape of your windows, and our experienced installation experts can safely and properly install which style you choose.
Our shop at home service is a refreshing twist on the shopping experience. From the comfort of your home, we can help you choose from the best quality blinds, shades, and shutters for all of your rooms. Compared to the stark and awkward show rooms of big box stores, shopping with us will be a breeze! We’re never bogged down by distant and cold corporate directives, instead dealing with you in a warm and direct way. You’ll find us to be friendly and knowledgeable, backed by years of experience in the industry.
We offer the highest quality custom window treatments in the GTA, from Hunter Douglas, Sun-Glo, Shade-O-Matic, and more.
