“Can you make __________?”

One of our most frequently asked questions is this one! We get it all the time and our response is almost always “Yes!” We like to say that if it’s crafted from (or covered in) fabric and goes in your home (or business) we can make it! We are in the business of overcoming challenges and often say yes to clients when others have told them no. Whether it’s upholstery, window treatments or other soft furnishing: custom fabrication is what we do best. That’s why we find it easy to say, “We’ve got you covered!” (Jump to our full services list)


“Do I really need to use custom hardware? Can’t I just buy my own?”

Off the shelf or stock hardware isn’t rated for the weight of custom drapery. Stock hardware is rated for a tensile weight of less than 1 pound per foot while custom hardware is calculated for 2-3 pounds per foot. Bracket placement figured by our expert designers is also essential to the tensile strength, function and style of your custom hardware. Getting hardware in just the right shapes, sizes and finishes for your home’s unique needs can be another headache that we want to help you avoid. Our designers are here to help you make the best and most educated choices that are right for you and your home!


“I need something for the exterior of my home, do you only do interior work?”

Exterior work is no problem for us. Everything we create for home interiors, we can create using durable materials suited for outdoors. From sun protection for your pergola on blazing summer days. To oversized exterior shades that keep prying eyes out and privacy in. To drapery for your seating areas so you can enjoy them despite a seasonal chill. We can help and no job is too big or too small. Even your smallest patio and pool seating pillows and cushions will be fade and water resistant. Our knowledge of outdoor fabrics and foams means your investment in your exterior spaces will last season after season.


“I know I want my windows covered, but I don’t know where to start, can you help?”

This is one of the questions that excites us the most! We love walking clients through the process of creating beautiful window treatments. We want each treatment to reflect our clients unique needs, style and home. For our first consultation we will determine your specific needs, help you asses your personal style and find what designs speak to you. Then we will guide you through product options and provide estimates based on measurements. After we’ve helped you make your final selections we will have your products crafted by skilled tradespeople. Once your window treatments are ready we will schedule a time to have them professionally installed. We know installation is key so your treatments function as beautifully as they look. Our design team is here for you every step of the way. You can often hear us saying, “If we wouldn’t let a girlfriend put it in her home, we won’t let you either!”


“What exactly does ‘soft furnishing’ mean?”

A soft furnishing is anything in your home that is made from fabric. It’s an umbrella term that we use to describe different items we custom fabricate that aren’t window coverings or upholstery. These include pillows, poufs, bedding, table cloths, slipcovers, skirting, canopies and more. We know many clients aren’t familiar with this term and it is often looked at as “industry jargon.” We find that when we explain it to clients it’s pretty simple to understand!


“I want to motorize my window treatments, can you do that?”

Motorizing treatments is gaining popularity. The ease of use to open and close at the click of a button is appealing to our clients- plus it’s cool! Operating window treatments with a word to your electronic home assistant like Alexa or Google Home will take that cool factor even further with smart home integration. We offer automation that will program your treatments to close at certain times of the day. Like when the sun hits that one window every afternoon or morning. With automated coverings all you will have to do is stand back and be amazed. Motorized options are available in virtually every style of treatment: blinds, draperies, roman shades, shutters and more. We will help you determine which options are right for your home and style! Visit our Motorization page to learn more.


“I have a unique window in my home, what can I do to cover it?”

No matter what shape, size or number of windows you have we can help you find the perfect solution for every window. Our design consultants will walk you step by step through the process. We will help you determine which treatment will work best for every room and every window. You don’t have to know the questions to ask to get the results you want: because we do! We consider every factor including sun protection, pleating & function, and hardware placement. Our extensive knowledge of shades, blinds, top treatments, hardware and installation means your windows will be beautiful and function perfectly. No matter the shape or size.


“How do I get an estimate? Can you send me a price list?”

We offer you two options for estimates: For the first option, we can quote your project with rough estimates. The rough estimate is based on measurements you take and photos you provide. This first option provides you with the fastest estimate, but prices won’t be final. Final estimates would be given after a professional designer comes to measure. For the second option a designer can come measure at a scheduled time that’s convenient for you. Having a professional measure will result in more accurate and exact pricing for your estimate. We are happy to work either way and understand each client has different preferences. Because we fully customize each project to our clients, we cannot provide price lists. With endless options and tailor made selections no two projects are the same. We are happy to walk you step by step through each one for guaranteed quality and satisfaction.


“Why custom?”

Buying your soft furnishings from a retailer can be tempting but what we do can’t be replicated in a store. We know when you come to us you are looking for something to be aesthetically pleasing and functionally perfect. Our knowledge begins with the right type of fabric for your project. We know what fabrics won’t fade and what materials will hold up over lots of love and use. Then we base all our recommendations on what’s best for your home and style. We find great joy in providing clients with fabrics that cannot be bought off a retail shelf. We take precise measurements and ensure accurate pricing. We know the best hardware and all the trade secrets. The years we have spent learning the ins and outs of our trade means you reap the benefits. We pay attention to every detail. With Weave Gotcha Covered! you will get superior beauty and quality every time. We like to say when you look at our products, you will know it’s done “right.” From window treatments, to upholstery, to soft furnishings we coordinate and create every detail to perfection.
