Paradise has been one of the fastest-growing towns in Newfoundland and Labrador for two decades, with new subdivisions spreading out between St. John's and Conception Bay. Most homes are newer family houses, many with open plans, tall entry windows and views toward the bay.
Newer homes mean good windows, so the brief is about finishing: blackout bedrooms for long June days, a modern look, privacy and smart control.
Your blinds are measured in your home, made in our Halifax workshop and installed by our own crew on regular scheduled Avalon trips.
What Paradise homes need
Blackout. Roller or cellular shades with side channels.
A modern finish. Zebra blinds.
Smart control. Motorized shades on tall windows.

What it means for your windows: In midwinter the sun never climbs higher than about 19 degrees here, so it reaches far into south-facing rooms. That is welcome warmth on a cold afternoon and a real glare problem on a TV or a laptop. With the June sun up at about 5:04 a.m., east-facing bedrooms need blackout with sealed edges for anyone who likes to sleep past dawn.
