Four Treatments Sherman Houses Tend to Pick First
Grayson County housing runs a wider range than people from Dallas realize. Heritage Park Victorians still have their original sashes. Loy Lake new builds are going up with fourteen-foot great-room glass. Houston Street downtown has homes that have not been touched since the Truman administration. Lake Texoma weekend houses sit empty four nights a week. The four treatments below cover the most common Sherman consultations, and Jake and Jonathan match the right one to the room.
Cellular Shades That Take the Edge Off a Texas Summer
Sherman summers can run 100 degrees for weeks, and the AC unit becomes the most expensive thing in your house when that happens. Cellular shades trap a column of air against the glass and slow the heat gain before it ever hits the thermostat. The bill drops. The hardwoods stop fading. The west-facing rooms become usable again. Jake and Jonathan size each shade to the exact opening so the cell does what it is designed to do.
Motorized Shades for Transoms, Foyers, and Tall Walls of Glass
Heritage Park Victorians come with transoms above the front door, narrow windows on the staircase, and second-story foyers that nobody wants to operate with a string. Motorized shades drop them on a schedule, lift them by remote, or set them with a voice command. The same setup works on the wall of glass in a Loy Lake great-room build and on the picture windows in a Lake Texoma weekend house that you want to come home to.
Exterior Solar Screens for the Patios You Want to Use in August
Sherman porches catch a brutal stretch of afternoon sun, especially the houses out by Loy Lake and the new subdivisions on the south side. Heavy-duty exterior solar shades cut the heat at the screen and drop the deck temperature by close to twenty degrees, so the patio stays usable from May through October. The view of the yard stays. The outdoor furniture stops baking in place. The propane bill on the grill stays the same, but at least you can stand next to it.
Plantation Shutters Built for Heritage Park and New Builds Alike
Downtown Sherman and Heritage Park have streets full of Victorian and Craftsman homes with window frames that do not match a single modern catalog size. Trim that has been painted over for a century. Sashes that have settled by half an inch since 1910. Custom plantation shutters fit those exact openings, hold up through Texas humidity, and add measurable resale value when the house eventually changes hands. Building new toward Denison or the south side? Same product, easier saw work, same finished look.
Meet Jake & Jonathan
Jake Wade and Jonathan Arosamena have measured enough windows across Grayson County to know which Heritage Park homes still have their original sashes, which Loy Lake builds are going up with two-story great-rooms, and which downtown Victorians have transoms nobody else wants to quote. The consultation, the order, the install, and any callback after the fact all run through the two of them. No measure tech handing the file to a different installer. No salesperson reading from a script.
Grayson County Born and Raised
Jake and Jonathan work the territory from Sherman through Denison, Van Alstyne, Howe, and the smaller towns around Lake Texoma. They know which Heritage Park bungalows have bay windows that need custom shutters. They know which Loy Lake builds are framed for fourteen-foot great-room glass. They know which Houston Street homes have transoms above the front door that have not been functional since 1948. You are getting two guys who have measured the actual variety of housing stock in Grayson County, not a rep dropping in from Dallas.
Laser Measured. Hand Installed. By the Same Two People.
Every quote starts with Jake or Jonathan at your house, laser-measuring every opening to the sixteenth of an inch. Older Sherman homes have settled for a century. Newer ones have framers who got close enough on three sides and called it. Jake and Jonathan catch all of it during the measure, which is why the orders fit the first time and the install is one Saturday morning instead of three follow-up trips.

ExploreThree Realities Every Sherman House Tends to Have
A Heritage Park Victorian with original double-hungs. A Lake Texoma weekend house that empties out Monday through Thursday. A new build on the south side framed in 2024 with a great room that catches every afternoon ray. Most Grayson County consultations land in at least one of these three, and the answer for each one is different.
Older Sherman Homes Get Built-to-Fit Treatments
Heritage Park Victorians and downtown Sherman Craftsmans have window frames that were milled by hand or to standards no catalog matches today. A century of paint layers and a few decades of settling did not help. Big-box treatments leave gaps you can see from the street. Jake and Jonathan measure to what is actually there, build the order to that exact frame, and install without scuffing trim that has been on the house since 1910.
New Builds Get Window-Ready Before Move-In Day
Closing on a new build out by Loy Lake, toward Denison, or in the new subdivisions on the south side? Jake and Jonathan coordinate with your builder so the window treatments are on order before you have the keys. Move-in day, every window is dressed. No plastic temp blinds taped to the glass. No two-month wait while a special-order fabric ships from a warehouse in another state.
Texas Sun and the Occasional Ice Storm
Sherman gets nine months of Texas sun and a handful of weeks of genuine cold, ice, and the occasional snow. A 1908 home with original single-pane glass pays for both, and the AC unit carries most of the load from May through October. The right combination of cellular shades, plantation shutters, and exterior solar screens cuts the bill at both ends of the year. The thermostat works less, the hardwoods stop fading, and you stop hearing the front-room sashes rattle when the north wind picks up in February.
Why Sherman Resale Values Notice Finished Windows
Sherman home values have moved up steadily, and the houses that show best at sale are the ones with finished window treatments in the front-of-house rooms. Two identical Heritage Park Victorians on the same street, both four bedrooms, both 2,200 square feet: the one with period-correct plantation shutters in the front parlor sells two weeks faster and for more money. Cellular shades in a Loy Lake new build cut the summer cooling bill enough that the seasonal numbers reset on the listing. Motorized blinds on tall transoms catch the eye of every buyer who walks through during a Saturday showing. Jake and Jonathan sketch the room-by-room math during the consultation, but the resale conversation is consistent across every Sherman home.
What Working With Jake and Jonathan Actually Looks Like
Three steps from the first phone call to install day. Jake and Jonathan run the whole thing themselves. No third-party measurers, no rotating closers, no surprise change orders after the deposit clears.
The In-Home Consultation
Jake or Jonathan arrives with the full sample case and the catalog. You walk every room together. They listen to what each space needs to do, ask about light and privacy and how you actually use the room, and pull together a recommendation that fits how you live in the house.
The Laser Measurement & Quote
Every opening is laser-measured to the sixteenth, including the awkward shapes. Transoms over Victorian front doors. Bay windows in Heritage Park. The half-moons in the gable on a 1912 Craftsman. The quote is itemized line by line and handed across the table before they leave. No padded categories. No 'today only' pressure if you want to think it over.
The Install
Two to four weeks after you sign the order, Jake and Jonathan are back in the driveway with the install kit. They install in one visit, walk you through how every piece operates, and haul the cardboard out before they leave. Photos of the finished install go to you that evening so you have something to show. If a motor needs a Wi-Fi pairing or a remote needs syncing with Alexa, Google Home, or HomeKit, that happens before they pack up.
Window Treatment F.A.Q.'s for Sherman, TX
Yes, that is a regular part of what Jake and Jonathan do in Sherman. The Heritage Park Victorians and downtown Houston Street Craftsmans have original sashes and trim work that does not match any modern catalog size. We measure to what is actually there, build the treatment for that exact opening, and install without scuffing the original wood.
Yes, more than most homeowners expect. The honeycomb cell traps a column of air against the glass and slows the heat gain before it ever reaches the thermostat. In an older Sherman home with original single-pane windows, the right pairing of cellular shades and exterior solar screens can take real money off the summer cooling bill from May through September.
Jake and Jonathan personally cover Sherman, McKinney, Plano, Frisco, and the towns in between across Grayson, Collin, and Denton counties. Same free in-home consultation, same two installers on the day the boxes arrive. The wider Love Is Blinds Texas network covers DFW and East and Central Texas through additional named owner-operators.
Motorized blackouts in the bedrooms and cellular shades in the great room is what most Lake Texoma owners settle on. You can schedule the shades so the house holds a comfortable temperature when you are not there and lifts at sunrise on the days you are. Jake and Jonathan program everything on install day and show you the app before they leave the driveway.
Yes, all of it. Every order is custom, so unusual shapes are standard for us. Bay windows in Heritage Park bungalows. Narrow transoms over Victorian front doors. Half-moons in the gable of a 1908 Craftsman. Arched windows in newer subdivisions out by Loy Lake. Jake and Jonathan measure each one, order to the actual dimensions, and they fit the first time.
Two to four weeks from your consultation in most cases. Plantation shutters can run a little longer because they are built to your exact frame. Jake and Jonathan write the timeline into the quote before any money changes hands, and they do not take a deposit on anything they cannot ship on time.
About an hour, mostly conversation. Jake or Jonathan walks the rooms with you, takes the measurements, shows the samples, and writes the quote. If you want to think it over, you think it over. There is no follow-up sales call, no auto-renewing offer, and no deposit until you ask them to place the order.
Yes. The motorized blinds, shades, and shutters integrate with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and most major smart home hubs. Jake and Jonathan program every motor on install day and test against your setup before they leave.
