What advice would you give to first time renovators when it comes to their window furnishings?

Advice would be to firstly visit our showroom to gain a grasp on the wide range of products available and then follow this up with one of our consultants coming out on site to meet with you (free of charge) to offer advice, relating to your specific windows and personal requirements.

What type of window furnishing is likely to add more value to a property?

There would be three key elements when adding more value to a property when it comes to window furnishings:

  • Firstly, the visual aspect – Rooms can be instantly transformed when treated with the correct window covering.
  • Secondly, Energy efficiency – Energy efficiency is always a bonus for potential buyers and knowing that certain blinds can reduce your homes energy efficiency by up to 43% would help sell any house.
  • Thirdly Automation – Motorised blinds are now a very common and sort after item within a home, instantly adding more value.

Is home automation a "thing" now when it comes to window furnishings?

Definitely - automation is a very big “thing” in window furnishings! Now with the added ability to use voice control (connecting with Google Assistant & Amazon Alexa) and scene-setting (creating customised scenes that can be scheduled to automatically control all the shades in your home to operate together or in any combination you desire). Also while being aesthetically pleasing and safer for children and pets.

What's your perfect Inverloch day?

Perfect Inverloch day…….
Early morning yoga session on the beach, followed by a family fishing outing on the boat in Inverloch’s beautiful inlet, stopping off for a delicious picnic lunch. Once back on land enjoying a family bike ride along Inverloch’s coastline and then deservedly kicking back with family, friends, music and wine in hand to enjoy a feed of freshly caught fish!
