Custom Drapery & Curtains South Ajax – Free Installation

Just off the floor, by about a centimetre. A panel that pools looks lovely and collects everything a dog brings in from the trail. The short break keeps the line clean and lets the fabric swing free of the baseboard. Washable face fabrics and a shorter hem together make a real difference to how often the drapes need attention.

During the day, mostly yes, because the light outside is brighter than the light inside. After dark that reverses and a sheer shows the room clearly. Living rooms facing a street or a walkway need something behind the sheer for the evening, whether that is a blind at the glass or a lined panel on the same track.

It depends on the fabric and the lining, and we mark it on your paperwork when the order goes in. Most unlined cottons and polyester blends wash cold and hang to dry. Lined and interlined panels want dry cleaning, since the two layers shrink at different rates in a machine. Either way, drapery needs cleaning far less often than people expect.

Grommet and rod pocket styles are the ones we hang most often in this part of Ajax. They read relaxed and they draw easily, and neither one costs what a hand-finished pleat does to make. Pinch pleat still wins in a formal dining room. We bring examples of each so you can see how the fold sits before choosing.
