Richmond Blind Installation

Recent Review: We found Lonestar on Angie's List and we were not disappointed. Everything went exceptionally well. We had a lot of weather related delays (very rainy spring/summer this year) which was out of everyone's control, so we got off to a late start. Steve's team was amazing and Greg Paul was exceptional at keeping us in the loop the entire time. The professionalism of this company is one not often found these days. At the end of each day, they totally cleaned up everything, including sweeping the driveway behind the house. (I joked it was cleaner while they were here than it normally is!) You couldn't find a stray nail, piece of trash, or any equipment anywhere! After the windows were installed, they were completely cleaned off and the area around each window vacuumed. I came home from work to find all the windows installed with no clean up necessary. (I had heard horror stories about this process from friends that used other companies.) One of the windows (cherry wood laminate) had a small scratch on it. Steve said he would not install it and ordered a new one. My husband said he had to look hard to find the scratch and was pleased that Steve not only found it, but was proactive in getting it replaced. We had to wait a while on that window and the front door and even then, no money changed hands. Greg meant it when he said we did not pay until we were totally satisfied. The quality of work is excellent. We created a punch list for our "walk around". We had three minor items on our list. Greg had several pages on his! (Including a few handprints on the siding that he wanted them to come back and clean up!) We were very impressed with Greg's work ethic. As he said, it's their name on the sign and he wants it to be right. We had three separate estimates done for this job. One was much cheaper, but when I spoke to several people on their reference list I found a great deal of dissatisfaction. The other company was slightly higher. Robert Tabler did a great job explaining the products they would be using and answered all of my questions. He had samples with him and was able to work up the price while he was there. We did go top of the line on the windows and doors which added to the price as well. We have lived her for 24 years and the house needed a major facelift. We love the new look! I believe in the adage - you get what you pay for. We have learned that over the years the hard way. This is the kind of job where you want it to be the best it can be - Lonestar made that happen. Could not be more pleased!

Recent Review: This company is a top class act. I interviewed five companies before hiring them. They came right out to measure all the windows, they even put up paper blinds on the windows since the home was new and had bare windows. There was no rush or pressure to make decisions. When they were installed all thirty-seven shutters fit exactly. I received a can of Virginia Nuts as a thank you gift. There was plenty of follow up in the form of mailers and phone calls. Yes, they are very expensive. I don't know but it was into the thousands. I would purchase from them all over again.

Recent Review: The installers were very professional and competent. The windows were all installed in one day. The windowsill was not as deep as the original windows which meant that my custom blinds in three of my rooms couldn't be used as they stuck out beyond the windowsill. The blinds were all Hunter Douglas and expensive. Homefix paid for the replacement of all the affected blinds even though it meant that they lost money on the deal. I was very impressed that they stood behind their guaranty that if you are not satisfied they would work with you to make it right.

Recent Review: I have used Blinds Galore several times over the past few years for blinds in my previous house and in my current house. The website is easy to use. There are instructions for measuring and installing that guide you through the process. It does require some due diligence on the part of the purchaser to know what kind of windows you have and look at the specifications to verify the blinds will work before ordering. I am a middle ages woman and I installed the blinds in my previous house and I am working to install them in my current house, room by room.

Recent Review: We measured the window openings for the blinds and ordered them from Select. Blinds were a special material and color with a boxed in valance. Blinds arrived as scheduled and the quality was exceptional. The vertical cloth strips matched the mahogany blind color perfectly. We scheduled the local Select installer and Chris was very knowledgable, efficient and professional. Chris did a great job for us and did it in less time that we anticipated. We measured the height of one blind incorrectly. Select replaced the blind at no cost and we donate the blind to Goodwill.

Recent Review: Installation was excellent. The product, Norman Blinds, is outstanding.
