West Shore Shade fits roller, zebra and woven wood designer shades in homes across Tampa. Our own crew measures, installs and services every shade. We work from our showroom in Gibsonton.
For most Tampa homes, West Shore Shade suggests roller shades with solar screen fabric in sunny rooms. Blackout roller fabric suits bedrooms. Zebra shades fit living rooms that need flexible light. Woven wood shades add natural texture. We bring real fabric swatches to your free in-home consultation.
Tampa is a city of very different neighborhoods. This page covers the whole city, from South Tampa and Seminole Heights to New Tampa and Westchase. Each area has its own homes and its own window problems. We plan designer shades around the house in front of us.
Older areas near the bay have bungalows and 1920s homes. Their windows often come in odd sizes, so we measure each one. Downtown and Channelside have condo towers with floor-to-ceiling glass. Northern suburbs have newer homes with wide sliders and tall great-room windows.
The sun is the common thread. Tampa sits on Tampa Bay, and water reflects light into rooms. West-facing rooms take hard afternoon sun most of the year. Solar screen roller fabric cuts that glare and keeps your view.
Many Tampa homes also have screened lanais and pool cages. Sliders to those spaces are often the widest openings in the house. A 2-on-1 or 3-on-1 roller shade covers them on one headrail. Each section still moves on its own. You can open one panel and keep the others down.
We start with a free in-home consultation at a time that suits you. We bring real fabric swatches so you can hold them against your own windows. We check how each window faces and how you use each room. Then we give you a quote in person. Our own crew handles the install, with no subcontractors.
Every style is custom-made for your windows with chain or cordless lift. Here is how each one fits homes in this area.
Roller shades are the most flexible choice for Tampa homes. Solar screen fabrics in 1%, 3%, 5% or 10% openness control glare from the bay and the river. Blackout fabrics suit bedrooms on every side of town.

Zebra shades use alternating sheer and solid bands in two layers. You line up the bands to let in light or shift them for privacy. They suit living rooms in both older homes and new builds.

Woven wood shades bring bamboo, ramie, flax and other natural fibers into the room. They suit bungalows and newer homes alike. Add a light-filtering or room-darkening liner for privacy at night.
Woven wood details →Tampa homes face strong sun for much of the year. In the cooling season, about 76% of sunlight on standard double-pane windows becomes heat. That figure comes from the U.S. Department of Energy. Designer shades on sunny windows help limit that heat gain. Read the Energy Saver guide to window coverings.
The same roller, zebra and woven wood styles come motorized. Use a remote, a wall switch or your smart-home app. Every motor carries our lifetime motor warranty.

Yes, we fit designer shades in both. Bungalows often have older windows in odd sizes, so we measure each one. Condo towers often have wide glass walls. We pick mounts and fabrics that suit each kind of window.
Blackout fabric blocks light through the fabric itself. Light can still leak around the edges. For darker rooms, we suggest the ZeroLux system. It uses an enclosed cassette, side channels and a bottom channel to close those gaps.
