Budget Blinds of Glenview

Needed to improvise repair and got great result

There were no problems. It was a very small job. They did what they were supposed to do. It was a little more expensive than we anticipated. They were a little pricey. I called them about a couple of months ago with a question of whether they repair blinds and I never got a reply. They lady said, Well, depend on whether we install them or not. I'll get back with you", and she never did.

Great. Wonderful service, great product at a good price.

We are very happy with the window treatments we purchased from Budget Blinds.  The blinds arrived exactly when they were promised to be installed.  The quality is excellent, and we have received many compliments on them. The service and the blinds exceeded my expectations.  Dan, the installer, also did a great job.  We highly recommend!

The installer was great, showed up on time, explained how to use the shades, did a very professional job and carted away all of the debris.
The treatments are beautiful, exceeded my expectations and look great in the house.

Barry was most helpful in helping us decide on styles and colors. He was easy to get hold of and he took the initiative to let us know about a delay before we had to call and ask what was up. Big thumbs up for that. He also seemed to want to help us save money. The only problem with that might have been that we wound up with the default valance on the vertical blinds without even really knowing what it looked like, and I think we would have preferred an upgrade. The blinds themselves look great for a fraction of what we would have paid for Hunter Douglas and I doubt there's a significant difference in quality. The ding on the professionalism scale is that the installer had to have been the one to break the old indoor/outdoor thermometer we had on the kitchen windows, but he refused to even acknowledge that he might have unknowingly done it. Thing is, there's no other possible explanation for it suddenly breaking the day he was there. This is not that big a deal -- we replaced it -- but it wasn't cool that he insisted that he couldn't have broken it. All in all, however, we are pleased with the blinds and the service.

Barry from Budget Blinds came out for what we thought would be a sales call to replace our family room blinds but instead became a repair call when we realized a minor repair could solve our issue vs the more expensive route of replacing the blinds. Barry repaired our existing blinds on the spot, and recommended a service that could clean them, none of which meant a sale for him but he did it all with honesty and professionalism. We would definitely recommend him.

Very easy to work with,  from estimate to installation. Highly recommend.

Barry is great!  He responded quickly, made an appointment, and he arrived promptly.  He showed us several samples and options and he had great (but overbearing) suggestions as to fabric and color.  We have four huge picture windows and we opted for electronic blinds with remotes; Barry suggested the less-expensive remote system and we LOVE them!  We needed new blinds for almost the entire house, since we had just replaced nearly all of the windows and trim, and Barry was not only budget-friendly but he also made the whole process stress-free and worry-free.  We needed a few adjustments and corrections after installation, and Barry made sure it got done right away.  We highly recommend Barry and Budget Blinds.

I chose woven wood shades.  They look great, and I'm very happy with the quality.  Barry was very professional.   He was not high-pressure like another company I had out for an estimate.  I highly recommend this company.

Barry the owner was great. Very courteous and professional. It was a small job but he went out of his way to take care of everything for us. Barry even fixed the installation mistakes of a previous installer. I would recommend this company 1000%.

He did a great job. He came here, I didn't go to his place of business. He did a good job, he came when he was supposed to, but he was a little late. He came with his samples and he was just helpful. I think it was a good price.

,We were pleased with the wooden shutters for the bedrooms.  We were pleased with the look of the the kitchen bay area window window treatment, but contacted Barry shortly after installation as the largest of the treatments was sagging in the middle.  He came out and looked at it and said he would contact his rep.  They sent him an email with instructions as to how to straighten.  He came back, tried it, and it still sags.  If I had known this would happen, I would have selected a different type of treatment.  I think this window is too large for any type of natural fabric with a natural fold.  We also selected their natural averte product for the family room.  I was unsure about it - so Barry invited me up to the main hq to view the product.  Unfortunately, because it needs a lining, it doesn't lay as nicely as it did at HQ.  It looks sloppy.  Barry has come out a few times to try to readjust.  He moved the material out further from the wall as it was getting caught.  We have also had a bolt pop out and it came off the track.  Barry has provided good customer service, but we are not happy with this product.

He was wonderful! He was spot on with his estimate. When he said the shutters would be in they were in and came right out to install them. He was really good.

We had the intitial consultation in which Barry was extremely helpful in helping us decide which window treatments suited us in not only functionality but color scheme.  He kept our budget in mind and suggested treatments that would suit our needs (black out shades, retractible draw string, etc.) while giving the pros and cons of all types.  The actual installment was done quickly, but high quality.  I would highly recommend them to anyone in the area who needs window treatments.

From the initial phone call to Barry I received professionalism and a great attitude.  The consultation was great, we found exactly what we were looking for and were able to take care of getting exactly what we wanted for a decent price and reliable work.  The installer was a really great guy as well, very courteous and helpful.  Barry's company was all class, never missing an appointment and showing up on time. He did a good, clean job and we are thrilled with our window treatments.  We will definitely be calling Barry again within the next few months to finish the rest of our windows!

The installer appeared as scheduled and did a very efficient and excellent job. We were pleased not only with the installation, but with the color and quality suggestions given by the owner originally. We are very pleased and would definitely call them again.

I would hire this company for a future job.
