Get Ready to Entertain As the Temperatures Start to Drop

School has started, and the summer’s almost a distant memory. As Fall closes in, holiday events and seasonal festivals will soon pop up around The Valley. With more visitors pouring in as the temperature starts to drop, it’s important to prepare your home ahead of time. Here are ways to prepare your home for fall season visitors:

Backyard Retreat

What better way to welcome your visitors than with a lovely meal in your backyard? Create a space to entertain guests by expanding the shaded area with awnings. Though the temperatures are starting to drop, the sun over Arizona can still be harsh during the day time. Shield your guests with a shade structure that can be retracted anytime you want.   

Intimate Interiors

Interior roll shades provide the much needed privacy for you and your guests. When it starts to get cold outside, it can also serve as insulation. Motorized interior roll shades are so convenient to use, especially when equipped with sensors. You don’t have to worry about rolling the shades down when it’s too bright out, because the sensors will do the work for you. All you have to do is focus on entertaining your guests with great food and indoor activities.

 

 

All Pro Shades Concepts, are Arizona's #1 Trusted SRP Certified Contractors that can install window sun screens eligible for SRP's Screen Rebate.

SRP is offering customers a rebate of $0.80 per square foot on professionally installed shade screens to keep their homes cooler during Phoenix's summer months.

Insect & Debris-Free Patio

When orange leaves start plummeting to the ground, we want to be there to witness it. However, we don’t want these leaves getting into our outdoor furniture. Debris and insects are abundant during fall, and these can easily get into your patio area. To prevent this, you can install zipper-sealed patio shades in your home. You and your visitors don’t have to worry about blocking the view or the breeze with patio shades. Patio shades are created to shield your home from outdoor elements without obstructing the view.

 

Beautiful Curb Appeal

Say hello to Fall-decorating with your revamped exterior windows. Old, faded window screens definitely don’t go well with holiday decor, so make sure your sun screens are upgraded to sturdier, more elegant-looking ones before you start decorating. Window sun screens are a great way to enhance your home’s curb appeal, and will increase your home’s value. Your visitors will definitely appreciate your home’s picture-perfect look!

The Benefits of a Shade Solution System

A home with tons of natural light can create a positive space. Sometimes though, the heat can be way too harsh for you to endure. Being able to control when the amount of natural light that comes into your home should be an option if you want maximum comfort. Motorized residential shades and sunscreens are the best way to stay in control, so you can enjoy your entire home with your friends and family. Here’s how motorized shades, awnings, and sunscreens can help you stay in control:

Protection from UV Rays

If your home is facing south, chances are it’s getting a lot of sunlight for most of the day. If you’re dealing with Arizona heat, the temperature inside your home will rise fast. Not only that - constant contact with direct sunlight is bad for your skin in the long run. Motorized interior roll shades can easily solve this problem. When installed with sensors, it will automatically roll the shades down when it detects too much sunlight.

Privacy and Security

If you’d like a more permanent solution, sunscreens can block most of the sunlight during the day. It’s also an excellent way of blocking your home’s view from the outside, protecting you from nosy neighbors or people who like to snoop around in general. It’s also a great way to enhance your home’s curb appeal.

All Pro Shades Concepts, are Arizona's #1 Trusted SRP Certified Contractors that can install window sun screens eligible for SRP's Screen Rebate.

SRP is offering customers a rebate of $0.80 per square foot on professionally installed shade screens to keep their homes cooler during Phoenix's summer months.

Save Money with Energy Efficiency

If your home is facing North, your backyard gets the bulk of the sunlight. The back of your house can be hotter than other rooms, and cooling this area may be expensive. How can you cool a room and save power at the same time? Motorized awnings can be a good solution for this. It expands your space and gives it more shade at the same time. Poolside awnings can be a great addition to your backyard too, if you want to have more shade while you swim.

 

 

Protect Furniture from getting Sun-Bleached

Sun damage can reduce the quality of your furniture. Patio shades are a great addition to your lounge or patio and prevent irreversible damage to your outdoor furniture. Zipper-sealed patio shades prevent debris and insects from getting into your home. It also lets the breeze in while blocking the sunlight, so you can enjoy the space with family and friends.

The Best Ways to Cool Down This Phoenix Summer

It’s the middle of August and you think you might be running out of time to enjoy the summer. Phoenix heat has always been intense, so it’s no wonder why some people find summer hard to enjoy. But as always, we’ve got you covered. Here are the best ways to cool down this Phoenix summer. 

Dress for summer

This summer's most trendy colors are the light ones. Wearing light clothing isn’t only about style, but it also absorbs less heat from the sun, making the fabric cooler. This also enhances mood as it is associated with sunshine and the summertime. Cool fabrics such as loosely woven silk, cotton, or linens are preferred as they have a lighter texture and makes the skin breath.

 

Invite People Over

Inviting people over means you don’t have to get inside that hot car to get to a social gathering. Let your friends come to you. Of course, when they do come over, you have to make sure they’re comfortable. After braving the heat to get to your house, they’re going to need a shaded area to rest in. Make sure you have sunscreens or interior roll shades installed in your home so you can keep the heat out for your guests.

Take a Dip

Have a pool at home? Take this opportunity to take time off from the heat and enjoy the summer with your family and friends. Installing poolside awnings increases shade, making pool time a lot cooler. Residents love awnings that extend to shade over their pools. When you swim in a shaded area, you don’t have to worry about staying in the water too long and getting sunburned. Awnings also expand your entertainment space, so there’s more room for your family and friends.

Enjoy Your Backyard

You out and expose yourself to the scorching heat in search of summer adventure. You don’t always have to socialize. Sometimes it pays to relax alone in your own home. Grab a book, a cold drink, dip in the pool and lounge in your patio. Patio shades are another option to help you block the glaring sun while keeping the view and the breeze. All Pro Shade Concepts makes sure your shades are safe and provide the best quality installations- guaranteed.

How to Turn Your Phoenix Home into a Guest-Friendly Abode

Summer’s all about making memories with friends and family. While inviting people over is a great opportunity to show off your barbecuing skills, it’s important to give your guests a pleasant and relaxing experience. Summer in Phoenix can be brutal, so you have to make sure your home is comfortable enough for your guests. Here’s how you can turn your Phoenix home into a guest-friendly abode that your friends and family would love to come back to.

Create a Transformable Space

Give your patio an upgrade by turning it into a transformable space. This is easily achieved with zipper-sealed patio shades that instantly transform your patio into an ‘indoor-feeling’ space. Zipper-sealed shades keep insects and debris out, acting like a pseudo-wall. More importantly, it blocks out the sun while letting the breeze in, making the space cooler and more comfortable.

Provide Comfortable Seating

Have you checked your outdoor furniture lately? Well-maintained outdoor furniture is indispensable in creating relaxing environments. Some types of furniture need more care and maintenance than others. Upholstered couches, and hammocks, for example, may require some washing once in a while, depending on the type of fabric used. Wood furniture with an outdoor finish (like exterior varnished wood) can be washed or wiped down

Expand Your Entertainment Space 

Inviting more people over to hang out or use the pool?

Make sure you have enough shaded space in your backyard for people to lounge around or take a break from swimming. Retractable pool-side awnings can expand the shaded area in your home, giving you and your guests more room for outdoor activities. 

Keep Your Interiors Cool 

You don’t always have to entertain your guests outdoors. Creating a comfortable space inside your home is just as important, but relying too much on airconditioning may be costly. Adding quality sun screens to your windows can help you save energy, as it blocks most of the sunlight and glare. You can also use interior roll shades to block out the light in your living room - perfect for movie marathon days!

Different Backyard Themes That Will Wow Visitors

And just like that, it’s mid-February. Spring will set in a little over a month from now, and the warmer weather means you get to spend more time outdoors. Sooner or later you’ll find yourself inviting people to come over. If your backyard is looks too drab for visitors, here’s are some theme ideas that will surely make your outdoor space more inviting!

All Pro Shade Concepts installs custom window sun screens, awnings, and patio shades; and are the leading shade providers in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, the East Valley (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek) and West Valley (Phoenix, Glendale, Sun City, Laveen, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear).

Stripes

This classic pattern never fails to liven-up any outdoor space. Your backyard’s overall appeal depends on the color of the stripes used in your shades and outdoor furniture. Blue and white stripes can give you a little seaside feel, while black and white can set a more elegant tone. Multiple contrasting colors reminiscent of southwestern patterns is also perfect for any Arizona backyard.

Tropical

Nothing screams tropical more than hues of blue and green. If you have a pool in your backyard, small palm trees would look great next to it. You can never go wrong with bermuda grass and ferns as ground cover, but it’s also great to add some color in. Flowers or shrubs with a reddish or purple tint also fits with a tropical theme.

Of course, any tropical theme would be incomplete without shades.

Add some poolside awnings to shield yourself and your visitors from the sun! All Pro Shade Concepts’  awnings can be motorized and there are lots of colors to choose from.

Desert

The obvious choice for Arizonans may be a desert-themed backyard, but it takes a lot more than just a few cacti to make the space look great. Desert flowers like Zinnia, Marigold, some shrubs, and even succulents provide good ground cover. It also adds a lot of color. Consider using rocks of different shapes and sizes to add a little dimension to your landscaping.

Contemporary

This theme is characterized by sharp lines, laminated wood and steel. Contemporary design uses furniture that are plain-looking, but the beauty of it is there’s a lot of room for contrast. If you feel like your patio or backyard furniture looks flat, you can try contrasting it with different pattern designs like chevron, Greek key, or just loud colors like red.

Need shade solutions that go well with a contemporary design?

There’s no need for you to get up from a lovely conversation with friends just to roll up the shades. All Pro Shade Concepts has modern, sleek patio shades that can be controlled at a touch of a button.

Does Your Home Need More Privacy?

Does your home need more privacy? If you live in Arizona, you probably know this problem well. Not having enough privacy is a common problem in parts of Arizona where developers tend to maximize profit. Homes in Gilbert, Queen Creek & West Valley are built so close together, not leaving much to the imagination of prying eyes or curious neighbors.

People passing by can see you go about your daily routine through your windows. Having a nice afternoon in your backyard patio? Your neighbors can see you from the second floor of their homes. When you just want to relax and enjoy solitude, the last thing you want to see is your neighbors staring at you. How do you solve this privacy problem?

All Pro Shade Concepts installs custom window sun screens, awnings, and patio shades; and are the leading shade providers in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, the East Valley (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek) and West Valley (Phoenix, Glendale, Sun City, Laveen, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear).

Build Fences or Walls

This seems to be the pretty obvious solution. But first, you have to pick the kind of fence that works for you. You can go for the usual wooden fence, or a stone wall topped with wooden fencing. Mixing it up a bit with interesting materials such as glass, ornate ironwork or different kinds of wood can get rid of the claustrophobic feeling you get from dull fences. Just make sure to follow your area’s Property Line & Fence laws.

 

 

Consider Lattices

One good way to gain privacy is to use lattices. Lattices can make your yard look more cozy and inviting. If your yard is looking a little grey, you can add some color by growing vines like Bougainvillea or Cat’s Claw unto your lattice. While lattices allow air flow and natural light into your yard, it also serves as a good visual barrier.

Get Sun Screens on Your Windows

If you need some privacy from your neighbors and shade from the glaring sun, shade solutions can hit two birds with one stone. It takes a bit of work to put up fences and lattices, and not everyone has the luxury of time. You can always ask a professional to install shade solutions for you. Sun screens are great all-year round visual barriers and it helps you cool your home. You can choose your custom screen materials- like fabric, where you can decide the amount of visibility you want from the outside.

 

 

Get Patio Shades or Awnings

Retractable awnings and patio roll shades are awesome options that will also let you enjoy your patio without worrying about being seen from your neighbor’s second floor window. You'll be amazed at how much more privacy you'll feel with these simple shade solutions. Just as the window screens, you can decide the amount of visibility you prefer with your custom patio shades, along with your choice of track style.

Do Some Landscaping

There are many ways to use plants and trees to gain more privacy, and there are a number of trees that can grow in the Arizona climate. Trees like the Desert Willow, Blue Palo Verde and Arizona Rosewood are perfect for landscaping. Hedges and other plants are also a great way to block your neighbors’ view. If your yard space is a little small, experiment with raised plant beds, huge planters and layered gardens and turn your yard into a quaint little getaway.

Get Your Arizona Home Ready for Nice Weather

It’s been a long, hot summer, but it’s finally time to get your Arizona backyard and patio ready for the cooler fall and winter months! Check out these home makeover tips just in time for your outdoor soirees.

All Pro Shade Concepts installs custom window sun screens, awnings, and patio shades; and are the leading shade providers in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, the East Valley (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek) and West Valley (Phoenix, Glendale, Sun City, Laveen, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear).

Mood Lighting

Nothing sets the mood like outdoor lighting when you’re entertaining. While standard overhead lighting on your patio is practical, it can make your outdoor party seem drab and dull. String market lights or lanterns across your entire yard to light up the whole space and make your yard and patio more inviting. Uplighting on trees makes a dramatic impression, and walkway lighting is a practical and trendy way to draw attention to your entertainment space.

 

Patio Shades are an amazing feature to add to your Arizona Backyard.

Add Patio Shades

Patio shades are another option that will improve your entertainment space. Make your backyard patio comfortable for your guests, by opting for a zipper-sealed track- as it helps to keep out bugs and blowing debris out without sacrificing the fresh air. Go for premium options by automating your patio shades, controlling it with a touch of a button via wall switch or smartphone. All Pro Shade Concepts utilizes only the best, top-of-the-line motors by Somfy. 

 

New Patio Furniture

Labor day is the symbolic “end of summer” holiday, so many stores try to clear out all their summer merchandise to make way for fall and holiday decor. Patio furniture is no longer advertised, which means you may be able to snag a great deal on a brand new outdoor dining set or outdoor seating collection. Your best bet at this point is to try searching clearance sections in store and online.

 

Extend Your Entertainment Space

Awnings are the perfect way to increase the amount of space for your guests to mingle. Place a few extra tables and chairs for your gathering underneath your awning, and they will be protected from the sun & rain. If you choose a retractable awning, you'll be able to retract the awning back when your guests leave, protecting the longevity of your fabric, while hiding your awning discreetly. All Pro Shade Concepts are the Arizona Trusted Experts in the installation of static and retractable awnings.

 

Landscape

As the heat of the summer drops, start thinking about getting your winter grass seeded. Most Arizona lawns consist of Bermuda grass in the summer and Ryegrass in the winter. In the summer, Bermuda grass is able to tolerate the city's triple-digit temperatures. But, Bermuda grass is dormant during the winter months. For this reason, if you want to keep your lawn looking beautiful &  green all year, you have to plant winter rye grass. October is the prime month to start scalping your lawn & planting your Ryegrass seeds.

 

Outdoor Games

Lawn games are a great way to enjoy the outdoors with your family and inspire a little friendly competition. Bocce ball is becoming popular again, and cornhole (or bean-bag-toss, depending on where you’re from) is always a classic game to play. You may be able to find lawn games like ladder ball and croquet on clearance at certain stores this time of year too!

The Most Popular Home Upgrades in Paradise Valley

One of the wealthiest suburbs of the Phoenix metropolitan area sits just northwest of the city: Paradise Valley. PV is well known for its luxurious resorts, immaculate golf courses, high end dining, and beautiful homes. The overall cost of living in Paradise Valley is well over three times the cost of the Arizona average, and the majority of that cost is the result of the housing market. If you’re looking for extravagant home upgrades, PV is the place to see it.

All Pro Shade Concepts installs custom window sun screens, awnings, and patio shades; and are the leading shade providers in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, the East Valley (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek) and West Valley (Phoenix, Glendale, Sun City, Laveen, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear).

There are countless upgrades that can be done to the inside and outside of your home to not only increase resale value, but also create a unique space that you can truly be proud of.

Furniture

If the thought of major home renovation seems overwhelming, furniture can be a great place to start your upgrades when you’re not ready to make the commitment to construction. Purchasing high quality furniture may feel like a big blow to your wallet ($$$) but you’ll be saving more in the long run since better quality furniture tends to last much longer.

 

 

Pieces that get a lot of use, such as couches, should definitely be durable and last you a while. Outdoor patio seating should be especially well-made in order to be able to stand up to the harsh conditions of the Arizona elements.

Motorized Shades

Worried about protecting your new seating or outdoor entertainment spaces from the sun and other elements? Motorized patio shades and awnings are a great way to accomplish this. They are much faster and easier to deploy than individual furniture covers. They can even be installed to be controlled with your smartphone to make it even easier! Even indoor furniture can become sun-bleached, so why not take your sun protection one step further? Install sun screens on the outside of the home to prolong the life of your upholstery.

 

Bonus: Sunscreens help reduce cooling costs by up to 25%, and All Pro Shade Concepts is an SRP certified contractor. More on what that means for you here.

Lighting and Entertainment

Outdoor kitchens and bars are a major staple in many Paradise Valley homes, and they are a great way to keep the inside of the house cool while you do the cooking and entertaining outside. With flat screen televisions and full size refrigerators outside with your grill though, you’ll want to take extra precautions to keep all of these things protected.

Misting Systems

If you’re interested in extending your living space to the outdoors, consider a misting system. We all know the Arizona heat can be unbearable and can really put a damper on any plans involving the outdoors, but a misting system can make the patio a much more pleasant place to be and it uses less water than you may think. Be sure to consult a professional when it comes to installing misters though, you may need additional pumps to ensure your misters are working properly and not acting as a sprinkler system instead.

Why You Should Buy A House That’s North or South Facing

When you’re searching for a new home, there are many things that you are probably considering. Is the yard big enough? Are there enough bedrooms? Is the kitchen the right size? Is there a pool? Out of all of these questions, there is probably one that you’re not considering - is the house you’re looking at north or south facing?

All Pro Shade Concepts installs custom window sun screens, awnings, and patio shades; and are the leading shade providers in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, the East Valley (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek) and West Valley (Phoenix, Glendale, Sun City, Laveen, Peoria, Avondale, Goodyear).

The reason this is an important question to ask yourself or the realtor is that it makes a difference when and where the sun comes into your home. This question, however, is very much dependent on where you live. If you’re living in an area that has a more moderate climate most of the year, you’ll mostly likely want to have more sunlight warming your house, but if you’re in a place like Arizona, you’ll want to make sure you have the least amount of sunlight warming your house as possible to keep it cool.

 South-Facing

If you’re looking to have the most sunlight in your home, you’ll typically want to look for a house that is south-facing. This will ensure that your home is filled with natural sunlight for most of the day and give the front of your house more light and warmth.

North-Facing

Typically a north-facing home will only get sunlight in the back of the home and will be naturally cooler and darker than that of a south-facing home. In a place like Arizona this is typically the home you’ll want to look more at to keep cooling costs down when the temperatures rise. Who wouldn't want to save more money when you're running the A/C so often?

If you find that the sun is warming your home in a way you never intended, don’t worry, you don’t have to pack up and find a new home. Think about installing sun screens in the parts of your home that get the warmest (or the whole home for a uniform look).

 

 

Sun screens will block out most sunlight and heat, keep your home cooler, and cut down your cooling costs. What’s great about sun shades is that they don’t block out the view from the inside of your home, but keep wandering eyes from looking in from the outside.
