LARRY'S DESIGN CENTER ANSWERS COMMONLY ASKED WINDOW COVERING QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO BUY WINDOW COVERINGS FROM YOU?

Larry's Design Center recommends that you visit our showroom first. If you haven’t purchased window treatments for a while, you’ll probably be surprised by the variety of products available.

Our large display blinds and shades let you see, touch and operate window fashions up close and personal, and our knowledgeable staff will walk you through the choices. Your showroom visit will help you make a better decision about what to buy.

Then, a designer will meet with you in your own home to help you finalize your window fashions selections – ensuring that everything you order perfectly complements your home décor and meets your functional needs.

Overall, Larry's Design Center is committed to providing you with a thoroughly satisfying shopping experience.

WHY DO YOU DO THE MEASURING FOR MY NEW WINDOW TREATMENTS?

With many window fashions, exact (and knowledgeable) measuring and installation are critical, especially for inside mount situations and with hard, fitted products such as shutters. Measuring job done inaccurately can cost you lots of money if window fashions don’t fit correctly.

In addition, many homes have imperfections in window shape or protrusions that an expert installer can address up front to prevent window treatment problems later.

WHEN DO I PAY FOR MY WINDOW TREATMENTS?

Typically, we require a 50 percent deposit on all custom-made window treatments at the time you place your order.

When the project is fully installed, the remaining 50 percent is due.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET MY NEW WINDOW TREATMENTS?

That depends on what products you order. All of our products are custom made to your exact specifications, and some take longer than others to produce and ship to us.

Once you place your order, Larry's Design Center will keep you in the loop every step of the way so you know what to expect about the installation date.
