Your furniture and artwork stay protected from UV damage that fades expensive pieces over time. You get the perfect balance of natural light and protection that makes your home more comfortable year-round.
Hamptons Carpet One has been serving East Hampton families for over two decades. We’re the locally-owned company your neighbors trust when they want window treatments that actually last.
We understand what East Hampton homes need. The salt air that destroys cheap materials within a few years. The summer sun that makes south-facing rooms unbearable without proper protection. The need for treatments that look sophisticated for entertaining but work reliably every day.
Our team knows the difference between treatments that look good in a showroom and ones that perform in real coastal conditions. That’s why we specialize in Hunter Douglas products engineered specifically for challenging environments like ours.
We start with a free in-home consultation where we measure your windows and discuss your specific needs. Do you want blackout shades for better sleep? Motorized treatments that integrate with your smart home? Solar shades that preserve your water views while blocking heat and glare?
Once you’ve selected your treatments, we handle the custom manufacturing, coordinating everything so your installation happens on schedule. Our experienced installers make sure every blind operates smoothly, every shade hangs perfectly straight, and every motorized system connects properly to your smart home.
You get treatments that work right from day one, backed by our Beautiful Guarantee. If anything isn’t exactly what you expected, we make it right.

East Hampton homes face unique challenges that generic window treatments can’t handle. The constant salt air, intense summer UV exposure, and humidity levels that warp and damage inferior materials.
We carry the complete Hunter Douglas line, including their motorized PowerView systems that integrate with Alexa and Google Home. For energy efficiency, cellular shades provide excellent insulation—crucial for managing those summer cooling bills and winter heating costs.
Plantation shutters add serious curb appeal and home value while standing up to coastal conditions. Solar shades block heat and glare while preserving your beautiful water and landscape views. Families with young children love our cordless options that eliminate safety hazards while providing the light control you need.
Coastal conditions require treatments that resist humidity, salt air, and intense UV exposure. Faux wood blinds are ideal because they won’t warp or crack like real wood, and they’re easy to clean when salt residue builds up.
For fabric treatments, we recommend fade-resistant materials with protective coatings. Hunter Douglas offers several collections specifically engineered for coastal areas, including their Silhouette and Luminette lines that maintain their appearance despite challenging conditions.
Motorized treatments are particularly smart in coastal homes because they reduce wear from daily operation and eliminate cords that can be affected by humidity.
Basic custom blinds start around $200-$350 per window, while motorized shades or plantation shutters run $500-$800 per window. This investment makes financial sense when you consider that custom treatments last 10-15 years and often increase your home’s value.
Energy-efficient options can reduce cooling costs by 15-25% during summer months, helping offset the initial cost. We provide detailed estimates with no surprises, and we can suggest ways to maximize your budget.
Many clients start with high-priority rooms like bedrooms and living areas, then add other rooms over time. Quality treatments are worth doing right rather than settling for cheaper options that need replacement in a few years.
Absolutely. We specialize in Hunter Douglas PowerView motorization, which integrates seamlessly with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and most smart home systems. You can control individual treatments or entire rooms with voice commands or smartphone apps.
Schedule your shades to open with sunrise and close when the afternoon sun hits your windows. Create scenes that adjust multiple rooms at once for entertaining or bedtime. The system even includes sensors that automatically adjust based on temperature and light levels.
Smart treatments also provide security benefits by simulating occupancy when you’re away, automatically opening and closing on your normal schedule.
Custom treatments are manufactured specifically for your exact window measurements, ensuring a perfect fit every time. Ready-made treatments come in standard sizes that rarely match your windows precisely, leaving gaps that let in light and reduce energy efficiency.
Custom options also give you access to premium materials and mechanisms that aren’t available in mass-market products. You can choose from hundreds of fabrics, colors, and operating systems to match your exact needs and style preferences.
The installation is also completely different. Custom treatments include professional installation with proper mounting and adjustment, while ready-made products typically require DIY installation that often results in poor performance and appearance.
Quality window treatments properly selected for coastal conditions typically last 10-15 years with minimal maintenance. Hunter Douglas products we install include warranties that reflect this longevity, with many components covered for 10 years or more.
The key is choosing materials engineered for coastal environments. Faux wood blinds resist warping and cracking that destroys real wood in salt air. Fade-resistant fabrics maintain their color despite intense UV exposure. Corrosion-resistant hardware continues operating smoothly despite humidity.
Cheaper treatments might save money upfront but typically need replacement every 3-5 years in coastal conditions, making quality options more economical long-term.
Yes, properly selected window treatments can reduce cooling costs by 15-25% during East Hampton’s hot summer months. Cellular shades are particularly effective, creating an insulating air pocket that blocks heat transfer through your windows.
Solar shades block up to 95% of UV rays and heat while preserving your views. This means your air conditioning doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain comfortable temperatures, especially in rooms with large south or west-facing windows.
During winter, insulating treatments help retain heated air, reducing heating costs as well. The energy savings often pay for the treatments within 3-5 years, making them a smart investment beyond just comfort and appearance.
