What are the three basic categories of window treatments?

• <div><p>Window treatments fall under the categories of hard, soft, and layered. <i>Hard</i> refers to stiff, formed treatments that include window blinds and shutters. <i>Soft</i> refers to cloth window treatments that include drapes and curtains. Finally, <i>layered</i> refers to the combination of soft and hard treatments. For example, you might place flowing drapes over blinds to combine the practicality of a treatment that blocks the sun with the whimsical and elongating aesthetic of a full-window drape.</p></div>

Q: What is the most popular type of window treatment?

• <div><p>In general, shades and blinds are the most common window coverings used today because they create unobtrusive, sleek profiles that fit into any space. In addition, blinds and shades are extremely easy to use. Most operate using either a pull system or wand. While most blinds and shades sold by retailers are available in a wide range of sizes that are made to fit standard windows, customers can also order custom shades and blinds for windows that are hard to fit.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain drapes between cleanings?

• <div><p>Regular vacuuming, spot cleaning, and dust-resistant sprays can help maintain freshness and prolong the time between professional cleanings.</p></div>

Q: Should curtains be washed or dry cleaned?

• <div><p>It depends on the type of curtain material you&rsquo;re working with, as cotton, cotton blends, polyester, burlap, and linen can usually stand up well to machine washing, while silk, velvet, sateen, and lace curtains are typically too delicate for washing machines. Check the tags on your curtains and follow the directions for the best results. If you&rsquo;re unsure of the material, are missing a how-to-wash tag, or have older curtains that might get damaged in the machine, take them to a dry cleaner to be on the safe side.</p></div>

Q: Do cleaning services include reinstallation?

• <div><p>Yes, many providers offer removal, cleaning, and reinstallation services for added convenience.</p></div>
