Custom Window Coverings & Blinds in St. Albert
Why St. Albert Homeowners Choose Custom Blinds
Builder-grade blinds don’t hold up in St. Albert. Cheap aluminum slats warp against south-facing glass, big-box roller shades fray at the chain, and franchise replacements end up costing nearly as much as the original install. Homeowners from Erin Ridge North, Oakmont, and Grandin call us when they’re ready to stop replacing the same bad product every 3 to 5 years.
Our factory-direct model means one call, one measure, one installer, and window coverings built to the exact dimensions of YOUR openings — not a close-enough size from a warehouse overseas.
Whole-Home Installs in Erin Ridge North and Oakmont
We install whole-home packages across Erin Ridge North, Oakmont, Kingswood and Mission. We measure each opening and help you choose products and controls for each room.
A typical St. Albert estate install takes one to two days depending on motorization scope. We bring a working sample cart on the measure so you can see fabric in your actual light, not on a showroom floor.
Most St. Albert estate homeowners book from a referral. We can share project photos and, with the customer’s permission, a reference.
Built for St. Albert South-Facing Windows and River Valley Sun
St. Albert sits high above the Sturgeon River. The south and west exposures on most homes take direct, unfiltered sun for most of the day, which means glare on screens, faded flooring, and living rooms that cook through the summer evening. The right window coverings fix all three at once.
Solar roller shades cut 90 to 95 percent of UV and glare while keeping the outdoor view. First line of defence for south-facing great rooms in Jensen Lakes and Riverside.
Dual roller shades pair a solar sheer with a blackout liner on one bracket. Day view, evening privacy, one pull. Perfect for west-facing living rooms along the river.
Cellular honeycomb shades trap air in the cell pockets and add 3 to 4 R-value to the window. Critical for north-side bedrooms in a prairie winter and for reducing heat gain on south-facing bedrooms in summer.
Motorization is the right answer for any window over 8 feet wide, vaulted great-room windows, or anything above a stair landing. commercial-grade motors systems integrate with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit — you can schedule shades to drop at sunset automatically.
The Novo Advantage for St. Albert Homes
St. Albert homeowners comparing quotes can consider factory-direct, franchise and big-box options. Here is how Novo works.
Factory-direct pricing. Roller and zebra blinds start from $75 per blind at factory pickup. Your quote is itemized per window.
Made in Edmonton. Our roller, zebra and cellular shades are manufactured in our Edmonton factory. Covered by the Novo warranty — see terms.
One installer, start to finish. The person who measures your windows is the same person who installs. No handoffs, no scheduling mix-ups, no sales rep promising something the installer later says is not possible.
Real written quotes. We send an itemized written quote after your measure so you can review the product, fabric and installation costs. No pressure to decide on the day.
Built for Alberta
St. Albert weather, year round.
Our cellular shades and motorized blackouts are tested through Edmonton-area winters and west-facing summer evenings. Real Alberta performance, not warehouse-tested marketing claims.
Cold-weather insulation.
Honeycomb cellular shades trap a layer of air between fabric and glass, cutting heat loss on -30 °C nights. The R-value difference is measurable on your bill, not marketing copy.
Late-summer light control.
West-facing St. Albert windows get hammered by 10 PM sun in June and July. Motorized blackout rollers and dual fabric shades let you keep the view at 6 PM and the dark room at midnight.

What products work best for west-facing St. Albert windows?
West and south-facing windows in St. Albert take the worst of the river-valley sun. Our two best answers: dual roller shades (a solar sheer for daytime glare control plus a blackout layer for evening) on a single bracket, or motorized cellular honeycomb shades that can be timed to drop automatically at sunset. Both options also reduce summer heat gain dramatically — measurable on the same-room thermometer.

Bring a fabric sample or clear photo to your measure. We will compare it with the fabrics we offer and show you suitable options.
