Window Treatment Overview
When it comes to selecting the perfect window treatment, there are endless options—but not all of them are created equal. Many homeowners fall into the trap of buying low-quality blinds, shades, or shutters from big-box stores, only to replace them every few years due to warping, discoloration, or breakage.
Southern Shades is different. We offer high-quality window treatments that are built to last, backed by a lifetime warranty, and installed by experts who care about getting every detail right.
Why Southern Shades Blinds Stand Above the Rest
Most blinds from big-box retailers come with a one-year warranty. Why? Because they know that’s exactly when the problems start—discoloration, warping, bubbling, and cheap mechanisms that fail.
The Hidden Costs of Discount Blinds
Discoloration – Sun exposure turns bright white slats into dingy yellow.
Warping & Bubbling – Cheap plastic materials bend and lose shape under heat.
Faulty Mechanisms – Plastic headrails break, cords jam, and blinds stop functioning properly.
The Southern Shades Difference
Durable Materials – Metal headrails and reinforced mechanisms ensure longevity.
Lifetime Warranty – If anything happens, we replace or repair it—free of charge.
Better Pricing – High quality doesn’t have to mean high cost. Our blinds often cost less than big-box brands with better warranties and service.
Are Plantation Shutters Worth It? A Cost vs. Value Breakdown

Easy Maintenance – A quick wipe keeps them looking brand new.

Outside Mount – Adds depth and makes windows look larger.
