Window Coverings for Historic Fairhaven
Fairhaven grew up in the 1890s, and its brick buildings along Harris Avenue and 11th Street still give the district its character. Just up the hill, South Hill and Edgemoor are home to Victorian houses, classic Craftsman homes, and newer builds with sweeping views of Bellingham Bay and the San Juan Islands.
Life here moves at a walking pace. Neighbors stroll to Village Books, bike the South Bay Trail to Boulevard Park, and catch the sunset from Taylor Dock. Homes are built to take in that bay light, and the right window coverings let you enjoy every bit of it.
Older homes often have tall, narrow windows and original trim that look wonderful with plantation shutters, wood blinds, or tailored Roman shades. For view homes, solar and roller shades soften the afternoon glare off the water while keeping the bay in sight.
Blinds, Shades, Shutters, and Drapery
Our Fairhaven clients choose from honeycomb shades, roller and solar shades, Roman and woven wood shades, wood and faux wood blinds, plantation shutters, custom drapery, and motorized options.
Custom sizing is a real advantage in historic homes, where no two windows are quite the same. Honeycomb shades add cozy insulation to older houses through the winter, and room darkening shades make bedrooms restful during long summer evenings.

Fairhaven Window Covering Questions
What window coverings suit historic Fairhaven homes?
Plantation shutters, wood blinds, and Roman shades complement period trim and architecture, and custom sizing fits older window openings beautifully.
What works best for homes with Bellingham Bay views?
Solar and roller shades soften bright light off the water while keeping the view, and motorized shades make it easy to adjust a whole wall of windows with one touch.
How close is your showroom to Fairhaven?
Our showroom is in north Bellingham on Cordata Parkway, about 15 minutes away. Most clients start with a free in-home consultation, and showroom visits are welcome by appointment.
Do you work with shops and businesses in the Fairhaven district?
Yes. We provide window coverings for retail spaces, offices, restaurants, and hospitality properties as well as homes.
How can I get privacy without losing daylight?
Top-down bottom-up shades are a favorite. You can lower the top to bring in light and sky while the bottom stays closed for privacy.
Do you serve Edgemoor, South Hill, and Chuckanut homes?
Yes. We work throughout South Bellingham, including Edgemoor, South Hill, and homes along Chuckanut Drive.
Can I compare different brands in one visit?
Yes. We bring samples from Hunter Douglas, Norman, Graber, Lafayette, and Alta, so you can compare fabrics, finishes, and features side by side.
Are measuring and installation included?
Yes. Every Fairhaven project includes professional measuring and installation, so each window covering fits and operates just as it should.
