Westwood Hills homes feature architectural quality and premium finishes that deserve protection from the harsh Kansas sun. Solar shades are engineered specifically for homes like yours—where views matter as much as function. The neighborhood's elevation and tree coverage create unique light patterns throughout the day, and our local expertise means we understand exactly how sun exposure affects homes here. Whether you're protecting artwork in a formal living room, controlling glare in a home office near Rainbow Boulevard, or shading a sunroom that overlooks the Nature Center, we've installed hundreds of solar shade systems in comparable Westwood Hills homes. Our in-home consultation lets us assess your specific sun exposure and recommend the perfect openness factor for your needs.
