Custom Product Terms and Conditions

​

Installation: An estimated installation time frame will be given to you. Once draperies are completed and inspected, an installation date and time will be scheduled. Though we are working hard to ensure timely completion, COVID-19 related delays are possible. Any delays shall be brought to your attention.

 

Your custom window treatments will be installed by our expert drapery installers using hardware in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. Draperies will be dressed as required. Any valuables or furnishings, such as art, accents, furniture, etc. must be moved out of the installation work area before a Custom Drapes’ installer arrives for installation. If the customer wishes our Custom Drapes’ installer move furnishings out of the way and then back after installation, there may be an additional charge. Custom Drapes is not responsible for any damage to furniture that is not moved before our arrival.

​

Our designers and installers are trained on how to measure and install each product for the best possible fit for your window and will order products at that size. Custom Drapes guarantees the fit of our products when measured and installed by a Custom Drapes designer and installer. Sheetrock around windows is rarely perfect or square which may cause gaps on the sides of the product or give the appearance that the product is not level, particularly with inside mount shades and treatments.

​

On a case by case basis, our expert drapery installers may accommodate installation of draperies or hardware not provided by or produced by Custom Drapes. Custom Drapes cannot guarantee any fabric, material or hardware not provided or produced by Custom Drapes. A return trip due to missing, broken or unusable window treatments or hardware will result in a $150.00 Return Trip Fee. 

​

Photos & Publicity: Custom Drapes may take photographs and videos of your project in different stages for use in our portfolio and marketing efforts, including social media. Photographs and videos will be used for business purposes, including, but not limited to: press, publications, online, social media, marketing, advertising, and print. Custom Drapes will not disclose your address or name without prior consent.  Costs of photographs and publicity are the responsibility of Custom Drapes. Additionally, if Client or Client's agents document the Project, Custom Drapes shall be given credit if documentation is released publicly. 

​

Permits: You are responsible for permitting and or any and all approvals and compliance required by any governmental agency.

 

Changes: Customers must disclose to Custom Drapes any architectural changes or additions, such as blinds and shutters, cabinetry, beams, shelving, crown moldings, etc. prior to the beginning of the window treatment production. Changes will not be made to active purchase orders after production unless client pays for the associated cost with requested changes.

 

Textiles: Fabrics have inherent characteristics that are out of Custom Drapes’ control (i.e., stretching, stiffness, hiking, flaring, dye lots, back light shadows and imperfections). Be aware that no fabric is completely stable and there should be tolerance for small fluctuations in drapery and shade lengths. Some drapery fabrics (due to yarn contents, construction, humidity, etc.) will expand or contract under certain atmospheric conditions. Fabrics may change in appearance when sun light is directed from the back side of the fabric. Custom Drapes does not warranty any window treatments from fading. Please consult with your fabric sales person before purchasing customer’s own (COM) fabrics. Fabrics supplied by Custom Drapes are made to industry standards and are also subject to fading. Linings are highly recommended to reduce fading. Any required seams will be pattern matched for smooth transition from one width of fabric to another. Seams may be visible.

​

Soil and Stain Finish: This finish is sprayed onto the face of the fabric and repels oil, water and dirt borne stains. This finish is durable to steam cleaning and shampoo cleaning. The chemical properties of any textile finish have different effects on the various types of fabrics and dyes.

Items labeled as stain resistant are never 100% stainproof.

 

Motorization: All electric motors and electric components are supplied by third party vendors. Custom Drapes does not warranty any electric motors or electrical components beyond the original manufacture’s warranties.

 

Wiring: Custom Drapes may provide customers with new electrical outlet location recommendations. The recommendations Custom Drapes supplies should be verified by a state licensed electrical contractor selected by customer and at customer’s own expense. Customer will be responsible for ensuring that the selected electrical contractor is licensed. Custom Drapes is not a licensed electrical contractor and is only providing electrical outlet location recommendations. Therefore, Custom Drapes is not responsible for any wiring errors and/or errors performed by customer’s electrical contractor, including the positioning of the junction boxes or connections to the motor which may cause damage to the home or motors. 

​

Warranty: Custom Drapes’ custom fabric treatments are guaranteed to be free from fabrication defects provided the product is correctly installed and used.
