Athens sits in the western part of our service area and it has its own character.
The growth along US-72 and Highway 31 has brought significant new residential development, while the historic neighborhoods near downtown Athens and around Athens State University have older homes with original windows that require careful, experienced measurement.
We've worked in both. The new subdivisions going up off ⚠️ Pryor Road and throughout the Limestone County corridor mix seamlessly with the established neighborhoods in town. What they share is the same North Alabama sun problem south and west-facing windows that make rooms uncomfortable and force homeowners to choose between light and heat.
Athens homeowners also tend to appreciate a treatment that doesn't require a lot of maintenance. Faux wood blinds, quality shutters, and durable roller shades hold up well and keep looking right year after year and that's what most Athens estimates end up going toward.

We've been serving Athens homeowners since 1997, installing plantation shutters, roller shades, solar screen shades, faux wood blinds, zebra shades, honeycomb shades, fabric roman shades, woven wood shades, and exterior treatments including patio shades and awnings. We handle both new construction installs and updates to existing homes — including older homes with non-standard window dimensions that require careful measurement.
Athens homeowners deal with the same North Alabama heat and sun challenges as everyone else in the region — and the treatments that address it best are the same ones we recommend throughout our service area: solar screen shades for west-facing rooms with heat and glare problems, and quality shutters or roller shades for the rest of the home.
We're locally owned and not a franchise. We make the drive to Athens because we've been doing it for 27 years and our Athens clients keep calling us back. Every installation is done by our own team — no subcontractors, no hand-offs. Call (256) 883-1786 to schedule your free in-home estimate.
