Montague is the main town of eastern PEI, built along the Montague River, with older homes climbing the hills from the waterfront, family neighbourhoods and rural homes and cottages in the countryside around Brudenell and Lower Montague.
Eastern Kings County takes the weather off the Northumberland Strait and the Gulf. Older homes need warmth; river- and water-view homes need glare control; cottages need blackout.
Measures in eastern PEI are scheduled on regular trips. Your blinds are made in our Halifax workshop and installed by our own crew.

What it means for your windows: A 20-degree winter sun shines straight across a room rather than down onto the floor, so south- and west-facing windows in Montague get glare deep into the house from November to February. Summer sunrise at about 5:19 a.m. means east-facing bedrooms are bright early, so blackout makes a real difference for sleep.
