About Woodcroft

Local Window Treatment Experience in Woodcroft

Houses along College, Winthrop and Carrollton Avenues carry the plat name Woodcroft, and a few lots on East 42nd Street do too. The houses were built between 1911 and 1945, most of them from 1920 to 1924. Their lots run from about 3,200 to 7,200 square feet, with many at about 6,400, and some Carrollton Avenue lots in the 4400 block are 40 feet wide and 107 feet deep, with a detached one car garage. Carrollton Avenue is the last street before the Monon Trail, which marks the east edge of Meridian-Kessler. Some residents call the area SoBro or South Broad Ripple, though the plat sits inside Meridian-Kessler's boundaries, and sizes run from about 770 to 1,800 square feet.</p><p style="font-size:16px;color:#4a5a6a;line-height:1.75;margin:16px 0 0">A window treatment plan in Woodcroft starts with your own rooms.

The Housing Here

Housing and window planning in Woodcroft

Houses in Woodcroft run from about 770 to 1,800 square feet. The larger ones are two story houses from the mid-1920s on Carrollton Avenue with vinyl siding. Craftsman houses from 1920 on Carrollton Avenue have wood siding, one story, a large front porch and around 1,100 square feet, while neighbors in the next block carry aluminum siding and a covered porch. Arts and Crafts houses from 1911 on College Avenue have cedar siding and one and a half stories. The smallest are 1945 bungalows on Winthrop Avenue of about 770 square feet with a partially finished daylight basement.

The neighborhood's housing gives us a starting point for the visit. We'll still measure your house individually, including any openings that have changed during an update. If you're replacing windows as part of the project, let us know before the treatments are ordered so the plan can use the finished frames.

What It Means For Your Windows

What to check at the windows in Woodcroft

Window types here depend on who has updated what. The 1945 bungalows on Winthrop Avenue have vinyl windows, the mid-1920s houses on Carrollton Avenue have updated windows, and the 1911 Arts and Crafts houses on College Avenue keep some leaded ones. Original sash in bungalows of the 1910s and 1920s is commonly double hung wood, and casings on houses this size are often shallow, so the crew measures the depth of each frame before picking a headrail. Daylight basements are common, where windows sit high in the wall and a top down shade gives privacy while letting light in at the top.

We'll look at the way light enters your Woodcroft rooms and check how the windows operate. The treatment needs to suit the opening when it's lowered and when it's raised. That includes the space for the hardware and the access you'll need to use the window.

Work around the wood trim

We'll look at the wood casing and check how both sashes operate. If you want to keep the trim visible, the depth of the opening decides which inside mounted products are worth considering.

Keep basement windows usable

If a basement window is needed for an exit, we'll plan the treatment so it can clear the opening. The finished shade and its controls need to work with the sash when it's open.

Check the mounting depth

We'll measure the usable space inside each frame before recommending an inside mount. If the headrail would project too far, we'll discuss an outside mount and show where it would sit.

Choose privacy for the room

We'll ask what the room needs after dark as well as during the day. A sample held against the actual glass gives you a better starting point than choosing from a small picture.

What We Specify Here

Products to compare for your Woodcroft home

These are options to discuss during your Woodcroft consultation. We'll narrow the choice after seeing the glass and learning which rooms you're working on. You can review a coordinated plan for the house or start with the rooms that need attention first.

Wood blinds beside existing wood trim

Wood blinds are an option where you'd like the finish to work with the casing. We'll compare the sample in the room and check whether the headrail fits the opening.

Cellular shades for basement rooms

A cellular shade can cover a basement opening without a floor length panel in the way. We'll check how it lifts and whether the window can open fully before recommending it.

Roller shades for everyday light control

A roller shade is an option to compare when you'd like the treatment to roll out of the way. We'll review the fabric in the room and discuss how much privacy you need at night.

Cellular shades for room by room coverage

A cellular shade is worth comparing where you'd like a compact treatment at the window. We'll look at the opening and discuss how much daylight you want when it's lowered.
