Window treatments built for Catalina Foothills homes.

Catalina Foothills is its own kind of housing market. Mid-century homes with glass walls in Skyline and La Paloma, contemporary custom estates in Ventana Canyon and Pima Canyon with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Catalina Mountains, and plenty of arched or specialty-shaped windows that follow the hillside lots. Standard sizes rarely apply out here.

Matt Diaz measures every window in person, including the tall glass and specialty shapes, and helps you choose treatments that manage light and privacy without covering up the view you bought the house for. For simpler rooms and guest spaces, roller shades in Catalina Foothills are a clean, budget-friendly option alongside the motorized and dual shades built for the larger view windows.

  • Free in-home consultations anywhere in Catalina Foothills, real samples included.
  • Owner-operated by Matt Diaz, the person who measures your windows also installs them.
  • Custom-measured to the sixteenth of an inch, including arched and oversized openings.

Homes we work on in Catalina Foothills.

Three home types make up most of the work out here, and each one calls for a different approach.

Mid-century glass-wall homes

Common in Skyline and La Paloma, these homes were built around walls of glass facing the mountains. Dual shades and motorized options manage glare while keeping the view intact.

Contemporary custom estates

Floor-to-ceiling windows in Ventana Canyon and Pima Canyon estates need precise measuring and often motorization for windows that are too tall to reach by hand.

Homes with arched or specialty-shaped windows

Foothills architecture leans on arched transoms and angled clerestory glass that follow the hillside. Every one of these gets measured and built individually, no stock sizes.

Low-angle glare is a bigger issue than most homeowners expect.

When the Tucson sun sits low in the sky, it drives straight into south- and west-facing rooms, even on mild, comfortable days. On a home with large view windows, that means glare on your screen, heat on the couch, and fading on the floors. Motorized and dual shades let you control that light without losing the mountain view.

30 to 40%

Roughly how much less cooling load exterior solar screens carry on west- and south-facing rooms with heavy sun exposure.

Up to 99%

UV blocked at the screen on solar screens and select shade fabrics, protecting floors, art, and furniture from fading year round.

Low-angle sun

The low sun angle drives deep into south- and west-facing glass, even on cool days, which is when glare complaints spike.

Cellular shades

Honeycomb construction traps air at the glass, meaningfully slowing heat transfer through the large window surfaces common in Foothills homes.

Catalina Foothills window treatment questions.

Answers to what Catalina Foothills homeowners ask most. Have a different question? Call (844) 936-2446, you will talk to Matt.

Do you install custom blinds in Catalina Foothills AZ for large view windows?
Yes. Catalina Foothills homes tend to have some of the largest glass in the Tucson area, floor-to-ceiling walls facing the Catalina Mountains, wide picture windows, and arched or angled shapes that follow the hillside. Matt measures every opening in person, including specialty shapes, and builds the treatment to fit rather than working around a stock size.
What works best for glare on our mountain-view windows?
Motorized shades and dual shades are the two most common answers here. Motorization makes sense on tall glass you cannot reach by hand, and dual shades let you soften glare with a light-filtering layer while keeping a blackout layer in reserve, without losing the view when you want it.
Is the low-angle sun really a problem if it is not that hot outside?
It catches a lot of homeowners off guard. For a good stretch of the year the sun sits low in the sky and drives straight into south- and west-facing rooms, even on cool days. On a home with large glass, that means glare and heat gain on your couch and floors even when the afternoons are mild.
Can you work with plantation shutters on arched or specialty-shaped windows?
Yes, and it is common work in Ventana Canyon, Skyline, and La Paloma. Arched transoms, angled clerestory glass, and oversized sliders all get measured and built individually. Plantation shutters hold up well to Tucson sun and suit both mid-century and contemporary Foothills homes.
Do you offer solar screens for Catalina Foothills homes?
Yes. Exterior solar screens are a common pairing with motorized interior shades on homes with a lot of west- and south-facing glass. They cut heat and glare at the screen, before it reaches the window, and work well alongside dual shades for the rooms you use every day.
How long does installation take on a large Foothills home?
It depends on the number of windows. A few rooms usually finish in a morning. Larger custom estates with extensive glass may take a full day or two visits. Matt plans the schedule around your home and protects floors and finishes throughout.
Is the in-home consultation free?
Yes, completely free with no pressure. Matt brings samples to your Catalina Foothills home, measures every window you are considering, and leaves you a clear, itemized quote. There is never a travel fee anywhere in the service area.
