- Valances can be made railroaded, if the design and fabric width allows, request CUSTOM quote for yardage allowances
- Blackout lining or interlining is recommended on most valances to prevent shadowing, sur-charges apply

Pricing:
- Priced per width, based on 48”-54” fabric

- Railroaded fabrics and fabrics wider than 48”-54” will need to be converted into billable widths to find the labor cost
- To convert to billable widths, divide the flat fabric width by 54, round up
