Skylight Blinds & Shades for Spicewood homes, done by vetted Austin-area
crews. A skylight brings in daylight, but by August, an unshaded south-facing unit turns a bright room into a hot one. Skylight blinds and shades give you control over both light and heat without giving up the skylight itself.
Spicewood: Spicewood sits along Lake Travis in the Hill Country, and its custom home stock faces the same IECC Climate Zone 2 heat and sun exposure common to the rest of the western Austin metro.

Do skylight shades actually reduce heat, or just glare?
Both, but cellular honeycomb shades do the most on the heat side because the trapped air pockets in the cell structure add real insulation value on top of blocking direct sun. Roller and pleated shades cut glare well but offer less heat resistance than a cellular design. For a hot, south-facing skylight, cellular is usually the better long-term pick.
