"Nightshade was the 3rd company I had in to quote new motorized shades in my home. After seeing what they had to offer, it was an easy decision to go with them. They gave me a fair price, with shades that were perfect for what needed. They had many different options and walked me through what would work best in each room. The customer service was top notch. When it was time for installation, they came in and made sure to cover my floors and did a quick, neat job. I would recommend them to anyone looking for window coverings. A+++"

"This pro did an outstanding job clearing my driveway. He made a path to my oil refill without my asking..and I was very glad! He spread salt too. The only problem was that he came 2 days after the storm; my son missed two days of work because the snow was so deep. I am a new customer and will give this company another chance to clear us out in a more timely manner. I am grateful for their attention to my rather long driveway!"
Yes. Thermal pane windows can be customized to fit a variety of different window sizes and dimensions.

It is legal to put bars on windows in most places, but it depends on the type of bars you choose and the regulations in your area. For example, there are building codes in Mississippi, California, and Texas that forbid the use of permanently closed burglar bars on windows due to concerns about people getting trapped inside during fires.
Wood windows will help keep an old home's charm, but they are more expensive and harder to maintain. Vinyl or fiberglass windows offer the best benefits in terms of durability and ease of care while still somewhat blending into the look and feel of an older home.
If the vinyl or fiberglass looks too out of place, consider adding shutters or something similar. The cost of plantation shutters is about $2,990, but the charm they bring to a home is unmatched.
In addition to window well covers or bars, you can take a few more steps to boost basement window security. Try motion-activated lighting; it scares off potential intruders by lighting up when someone gets too close. Strengthening your window glass with impact-resistant security film can also deter forced entry. A dependable home security system with window sensors and cameras offers real-time monitoring and alerts for added protection. Lastly, fostering good relationships with neighbors can establish a supportive community watch network, enhancing your home's safety.
The amount of time window lintels last is based on the environment they’re installed in and the material that’s installed. For example, a steel lintel installed in a temperate climate will always last longer than a wooden or brick lintel installed in an area with tons of rain, snow, and wind. No matter which material you choose or where you live, proper maintenance will ensure your lintels last as long as possible.
