Brentwood Blind Company | Drapery in Brentwood

Sound familiar?

A window that is functional but the room still feels unfinished

The light is under control, but the room stays hard and echoey and the window looks like a hole in the wall rather than part of the design.

Fabric is what fixes that. Curtains bring softness, height and colour to a room, and the way they are hung changes how large the window reads.

That is exactly why Brentwood Blind Company does it differently.

What we do

Every job, handled end to end

DraperyFabric panels hung across the window to soften a room, add colour and block light at night. Lining determines how much light and cold they hold back.
Custom shadesA single panel of fabric that rolls or folds clear of the glass. The fabric decides the result, from sheer glare control through to full blackout for sleeping.
BlindsSlats on a cord or wand that tilt for filtered light and raise clear of the window. Slat material is chosen per room, since damp rooms and sun-facing rooms behave differently.
Plantation shuttersRigid panels fitted into the window frame with louvers that tilt, so light and privacy are set independently. Suits rooms where a permanent, built-in look matters.
Motorized window coveringsCoverings operated by a motor rather than a cord or wand, controlled from a remote, an app or a schedule. Power can be battery or hardwired, which is decided per window.

What curtains and drapery do for a room

Brentwood Blind Company is a local blinds & shades team serving Brentwood. Here is what fabric changes about a room, and the choices that drive it.

Softness and SoundFabric absorbs sound where hard floors and bare windows bounce it, which takes the echo out of a large or sparse room.
A Window That Reads TallerHanging the rod above the frame and letting the fabric run to the floor makes the whole window read taller than it is.
Insulating at the GlassA lined curtain drawn across the window puts a fabric layer between the room and the cold glass, which is why lining matters on north-facing rooms.
Colour and PatternCurtains are usually the largest piece of fabric in a room, so they are the most direct way to set its colour.

Common questions

How long should curtains be?

Floor length is the usual choice, with the fabric either just clearing the floor or breaking slightly on it. Sill length is used where furniture or a radiator sits under the window. The room decides.

What does lining actually do?

Lining adds a second fabric layer behind the curtain. It blocks more light, protects the face fabric from sun fading, helps the curtain hang with a fuller shape, and adds insulation at the glass.

Can curtains be used with blinds or shades?

Yes, and it is common. The blind or shade handles daytime light control close to the glass, and the curtains add softness and close for privacy at night.

How much fabric width is needed?

Curtains need more fabric width than the window itself, or they hang flat when closed and have nothing to gather when open. The fullness you want is part of the measure.
