I was hesitant at first to have someone come to our home with samples. My mind was changed after meeting Karen. She was very nice and easy to talk with, very helpful and professional. No hard sales pitch and even offered to figure out prices while at our home. Her work van was a newer vehicle, exceptionally clean, well organized and fully stocked with sample books from several different manufacturers. As far as her installers go they were exceptional! I would recommend her highly!!

Matt, the installer, was prompt, professional, polite and thorough. He was careful in his work, explaining what he was doing as well as the shade's operation when he was done.

Representative was delayed slightly; however, very quickly installed blinds. He was very friendly, and made a special effort & honor my special requests, e.g. Where to park his van and where to dispose of old blinds.

KAREN AND HER ASSOCIATE WERE PROMPT WITH THEIR APPT. TO MEASURE AND GIVE US AN ESTIMATE. WE ORDERED THE SHADE - BOTH VERY NICE PEOPLE. WE WERE TOLD APPROX. WHEN IT WOULD BE IN AND IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS (THROUGH THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY) THEY CALLED AND SAID THEY WERE IN AND WE SET UP A DAY FOR INSTALLATION ONLY ABOUT 3 DAYS AFTER THE SHADES CAME IN. MATT THE INSTALLER WAS RIGHT ON TIME FOR THE INSTALLATION AND IT DID NOT TAKE LONG AT ALL. HE ALSO WAS VERY COURTEOUS AND DID A GREAT INSTALLATION JOB. THEY LOOK VERY WELL AND WE ARE COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH EVERY ASPECT OF THE JOB.

Karen, the owner, came to our home with numerous samples and recommended the beautiful shutters we had installed by Matt who was very professional. Both Karen and Matt were on time a very good experience.

Perfect! Karen suggested putting the drapery rods higher on the wall to make the ceiling look higher and the first oerson that saw them said "it looks like you lr ceilings are higher!" Great tip!

Karen is a wonderful person to do business with. Her suggestions and ideas are truly appreciated and the end product is absolutely beautiful.
Highly recommend!
