How Often Should You Update Window Treatments?

How often you update your window treatments depends on your lifestyle. Most window treatments will last for seven to eight years, but if you invest in high-quality window treatments and take good care of them, they can last more than twenty years. But just because your window treatments last doesn’t mean they’ll still be fashionable.

Selecting New Window Treatments That Will Last a Long Time

If you choose the right window treatments, you may not need to replace them for quite some time. But, as fashion changes and life happens, you may find yourself wanting new window treatments after a few years. There are several factors that may cause you to update window trends more frequently:

  • Color or patterns: If you choose contemporary patterns for your window shades, you may need to replace them every few years to keep up with changing trends. Consider combining wood blinds or shutters, which will look fantastic for years, with custom drapery that you can easily update.
  • Your home décor: If you frequently update your home décor, that will include your window treatments. Consider having a base window treatment, like wood shutters, as a permanent feature and only changing the top layer.
  • Safety: You have a new baby or pet and realize the long, dangling cords could harm them. Our window treatments are child and pet-safe!
  • Energy Savings: With incentives to conserve energy and lower your energy bill, upgrading can be an easy choice! Try energy-efficient Duette® Cellular Shades.
