Roller Shades Built for Sarasota Sun and Comfort
Sarasota summers are long, bright, and hard on your interiors. Our roller shades push back. With our professional installation, they cut UV rays before they fade your furniture, reduce the heat that builds up through glass in the afternoon, and soften harsh glare without closing off your view. Need privacy at night? Drop them down, and the room is yours. Want natural light in the morning? Raise them in seconds. Day to day, our custom roller shades make your home more comfortable with almost no effort.
Effortless Control at the Touch of a Button
Our motorized roller shades in Sarasota take the work out of managing light and heat. Control them by remote, app, or voice, so you never have to leave your seat. For tall or hard-to-reach windows, automation is a true game changer. Set a schedule to lower your shades before afternoon heat peaks, and your rooms stay cooler with zero effort. This window treatment fits right into your daily routine, making comfort a default, not a task.

Our shade lineup covers every room and need. Our custom blackout roller shades in Sarasota are ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms where darkness matters most.

A Precise Fit From Start to Finish
Every room in your house has its own light, its own purpose, and its own personality. We start there. During your consultation, we learn how you use the space, what aesthetic you’re after, and how much light or privacy you need day to day. From that, we guide you toward the right fabric, opacity, and style. We handle roller shade installation in Sarasota and more options so the final result looks and works exactly as you pictured it.

Ron with Sapphire Shades & Shutters was great. We built a new house in Florida and wanted motorized insect screens on the back balcony. Ron came out and measured while the house was still under construction and showed us sample screens, frames, etc. We opted for insect only screens with black tracks to match the house. He also made suggestions on how to hide the motor and cassette that holds the screens at the top. We contracted with him, but had to wait until the stucco was on the house for him to do final measurements. No problem for Ron. I called him back once the stucco was on and within a couple of days one of his guys came out to do the final measure and they placed the order. I think it was 2-3 weeks to get the screens produced and then they came and installed them. The installer was obviously very knowledgeable and friendly. After install he showed us how to use the remote and how to adjust the screen positioning (if that ever became necessary). I would totally use Ron and Sapphire Shades again in the future! 5 Stars!Posted on Google![]()

Working with Ron was easy and effortless. He is very knowledgeable and has every possible fabric style you could imagine. His installer. “Eric” was terrific and got our shades up in no time. So very happy with the outcome and they were very price competitive compared to some big named companies. I’d highly suggest them for your shade needs.Posted on Google![]()
