PROVO
ROLLER SHADES.

Motorized roller shades, blackout packages and solar shades for Provo homes and rentals — from a Tree Streets bedroom to a wall of glass in Edgemont.

Provo’s Authorized Roller Shade Dealer

TWO JOBS IN
ONE CITY.

Peak Shades measures and installs roller shades across Utah County, and Provo asks two different questions of a shade company. North of center you have rentals turning over every August, where the shade has to be durable, cleanable and cheap to replace. East of campus you have large homes on the benches whose main rooms face west over the valley. Those are not the same product.

We are an authorized dealer for Lutron, Draper, Hunter Douglas, Phantom Screens, Somfy and MechoShade, which is what decides whether the fabric you want is actually available and whether the motor is warrantied. Every shade is cut on the day of install, so the line of light at the bottom stays level across a room whose windows are not quite identical.

Where We Measure

PROVO NEIGHBORHOODS WE SERVE.

North Park

Mature trees already shade the south side, so the work here is usually glare on the west end of the house rather than heat across the whole thing.

Tree Streets

Early-century homes with tall narrow windows. Inside-mount blackout with side channels, measured individually because no two openings in these houses match.

Edgemont

Big rear glass looking out over the valley. Dual shades are the usual specification — a solar fabric for the day, blackout behind it for the evening.

Sherwood Hills

Mid-century homes, wide sliders. Motorized rollers on the sliders so nobody has to reach behind furniture.

Foothill

East-side homes with afternoon sun coming back off the valley floor. Solar shades at low openness, or exterior screens where the HOA allows them.

Wymount

Married student housing. Blackout for shift sleepers and small children, specified for a landlord budget rather than a design budget.

Grandview

West-facing hillside, the hottest exposure in Provo. Exterior solar screens do more here than anything mounted inside.

Riverbottoms

Large lots, tall windows, often a two-storey entry. Hardwired Lutron Sivoia QS where the house is already wired for it.

Joaquin

Dense student rentals near campus. Manual rollers in a hard-wearing fabric, replaced one window at a time rather than whole-house.

South Provo

Post-war homes, standard window sizes, which means shorter lead times and a simpler install.

Provo-Specific

WHAT SHADING PROVO ACTUALLY INVOLVES.

  • 01
    Rentals and residences need different fabric
    A student rental wants a fabric that survives being yanked and can be wiped clean. A family home on the bench wants the right openness percentage. Quoting both the same way is how people end up with the wrong shade.
  • 02
    Afternoon sun comes off the valley, not overhead
    Provo’s west-facing rooms take low sun that no overhang stops. An exterior screen blocks roughly 90% of the heat at the glass, about three times what an interior shade on the same window manages.
  • 03
    Two-storey entries need a plan, not a ladder
    High windows above a front door are the ones that never get covered. Battery or hardwired motors solve it; what matters is deciding before the drywall is closed, not after.
  • 04
    Lead time, not install time, sets your date
    Install on most Provo homes is a single visit. The wait is fabrication on the fabric and motor you chose, so the earlier the fabric is picked the sooner it goes up.
Pricing

HOW MUCH DO ROLLER SHADES
COST IN PROVO?

Shades are priced per window. A Provo quote lists fabric, hardware and labor separately so a landlord and a homeowner can see which line to move.

MOTORIZED ROLLER

$700–$3K+

Per window, by size and system. Install is 1–2 days; service life 20+ years.

EXTERIOR SOLAR SCREEN

$400–$2K+

Per window, fixed frame through motorized retractable. Usually a one-day install, 15–20 year life.

WHAT MOVES THE NUMBER

4 things

Window size, fabric, motor system, and whether power already reaches the window. We quote the options side by side.

Ranges cover measurement, fabric, hardware, install and programming. Electrical work for hardwired systems, and any HOA or design-review submittal, are quoted separately.

Provo Shade FAQ

PROVO SHADE QUESTIONS.

What do you recommend for a student rental?

A manual roller in a tough, wipeable fabric. No motor to break, no app for a tenant to lose, and one window can be replaced without rematching the rest of the house.

Can you cover the window above my front door?

Yes, and that is one of the more common calls we get in the Riverbottoms and Edgemont. Battery motors handle it without running new wire, and a hardwired system is better if the ceiling is already open.

How do I stop glare on a west-facing room without losing the view?

Openness percentage is the whole decision. A 1–5% solar fabric cuts most of the glare and still reads as a window; up to 14% keeps more of the view and less of the control. We bring samples to the window.

Is blackout really black?

Only with side and bottom light-blocking channels. The fabric blocks light through the material, the channels block it around the edges. Without them it is room-darkening.

Do you work with BYU-area property managers?

Yes. Multi-unit work is quoted per window with a single install visit per building where the turnover schedule allows it.

Will motorized shades work with what I already have?

We program against Apple Home, Alexa and Control4, and we are authorized for Lutron Sivoia QS, Caséta and RA3, Hunter Douglas PowerView and Somfy. If you already have an integrator we coordinate with them rather than adding a second system.
