Valrico homes often sit on larger lots under tall oaks, with pool lanais out back. West Shore Shade fits roller, zebra and woven wood designer shades to the way light moves through each room.
Zebra shades suit Valrico rooms where shade from oaks changes through the day. Solar screen rollers handle the bright glare off a pool lanai. Woven wood fits dens and bedrooms that face the yard. West Shore Shade brings real fabric swatches to a free in-home consultation and quotes in person.
Valrico lies east of Brandon along State Road 60 and Bloomingdale Avenue. Many homes sit on larger lots with mature oaks. Some streets have acre lots and a rural feel. Newer subdivisions mix in two-story homes with tall front windows. Lot sizes and tree cover change from one street to the next.
Trees make light uneven through the day. A room can sit in shade at noon and take full sun at four. Zebra shades handle this well, because you adjust the bands as light changes. Light-filtering rollers also keep rooms bright on cloudy days. Some Valrico homes also have a bonus room over the garage that heats up fast.
Yes, because pool water and screen cages reflect light into the house. Sliders to the lanai often need a solar screen roller. A 3% openness cuts that reflected glare while you watch the pool. Blackout is rarely needed on these doors. Wide sliders can use a 2-on-1 setup that shares one headrail.
Bedrooms that face east get early sun through the trees. A double roller gives you solar screen by day and blackout at night. Our own crew measures each window during your free in-home consultation. We bring real fabric swatches to that visit. Call (813) 252-6813 to book a visit.
Every style is custom-made for your windows with chain or cordless lift. Here is how each one fits homes in this area.
Valrico pool homes need glare control on the lanai sliders. A 3% solar screen roller keeps an eye on the pool while it cuts reflected light. A 3" Illusion cassette gives the top a finished look.

Zebra shades fit Valrico living rooms where tree shade shifts all day. Adjust the bands for more light or more privacy at any hour. Choose dim-out zebra fabric for a TV room.

Woven wood shades match the wooded setting of many Valrico lots. Kenaf blends such as Smokey or Silage bring an earthy tone. Unlined woven wood shows silhouettes at night, so add a liner on street-facing windows.
Woven wood details →Valrico pool homes catch sunlight from the sky and off the water in the cage. The U.S. Department of Energy covers this in its Energy Saver guide on window coverings. About 76% of sunlight on standard double-pane windows enters to become heat in the cooling season. Shading lanai sliders helps.
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.
Often yes. Tree cover moves with the seasons and the time of day. Sliders to a pool lanai also pick up glare from the water. A solar screen roller handles both while keeping the yard in view. We check each window's light at the consultation.
A solar screen roller is our usual pick for lanai sliders. It cuts reflected glare from the pool and keeps the view. We mount it above the frame so it clears the slider handle. A 2-on-1 setup can cover wide openings.
Unlined woven wood shades show silhouettes when lights are on inside. A light-filtering liner reduces that. A room-darkening liner adds more privacy and darkness. We suggest a liner for any woven wood shade on a street-facing or bedroom window.
A double roller puts two shades on one window. One is a solar screen for daytime glare control. The other is a blackout shade for sleep. You use whichever one fits the time of day. It works well in bedrooms and media rooms.
