UV and fade protection using solar shades, tightly woven fabrics, lined drapery and film to protect floors, furniture, art and rugs from the sun's fading effect.
Sunlight fades things slowly and surely. Hardwood floors lighten, rugs lose color and art dulls. Homeowners in Nashville want to protect what they own, especially in rooms with big, bright windows.
We choose fabrics and products that reduce the UV and visible light that enter a room, such as solar shades with low openness, tightly woven shades, lined drapery and clear or tinted film. We explain that no treatment stops all fading and that the best protection is a closed treatment during the brightest hours. We can program motorized shades to close on a schedule so protection happens even when you are not home. We discuss which rooms matter most. Fading is cumulative, so protection works best when it is routine. We look at which rooms see the most sun and which items you most want to protect, such as an antique rug or a favorite painting. A simple habit, like closing a shade at midday, can do a lot, and motorization makes that habit automatic.
We note where sun hits floors, furniture and art, and plan protection for those spots.
Tighter weaves, linings and film reduce UV and visible light more than open weaves.
No treatment stops all fading, and closed coverings protect best during the brightest hours.
Scheduled closing keeps protection going when no one is home.
