I will never recommend nor use Budget Blinds again. When your salesperson came and measured, I thought I was paying for the entire job, yet he had not included three windows that we had specified and that he had already measured. This oversight was not noticed until the workers came to install and I questioned why these windows were not included. The only reply was that it would be nearly another $800 (after a discount) to have them done. When I swiped my card initially, I thought it was for ALL measured windows. So, in essence the job was more expensive than I had imagined. Certainly not "budget" at all. I also was not impressed with the worker's installation, as I had to go back and point out a few things that needed to be fixed - scratches, holes drilled in wrong areas, smudges of dirt, etc. Not to mention a cracked window. While what was installed are fine, I was able to install on my own the three missed windows and they came out nicer and better.

Rep was great. Made many good recommendations that we followed. The time between order and installation was less than a month. The installers were prompt, professional and friendly. They even caulked a window. We used this company with our first home with the same first rate service. Highly recommend.

It went OK. Only problem was that Trish is not listen to what I really wanted. I wanted that the verticals hung below the window sills. She had them come to the end of the window sills. As a result, they get caught on the sills when opening or closing them. They are not at the length I wanted.

Eric installed our blinds efficiently and well. I had no problem with any of them. And, they are gorgeous. I got different blinds throughout the home from woven wood to roller ones. They are gorgeous and I would not work with another company after working with Budget Blinds.

Excellent! Tristi Grant was the designer we worked with, she was so patient with me! Tristi would give me time to form my own opinion on options, but also made wonderful suggestions. It took a long time to get the custom window treatments in, but she had warned me of that so I was prepared, but the wait was worth it! The price was a little higher than I had originally planned, but Tristi was upfront with me about the cost of the fabric we chose, and ultimately the quality and professional installation was well worth it.

We had a problem with the original blinds installed in our home.  A consultant for Budget Blinds came to our home, took measurements and gave us an estimate along with some suggestions.  She was here at the appointed time, was super nice, and very helpful.  We had purchased Budget Blinds previously in another state and she contacted that office and got the necessary information so that we could receive a discount for being a prior customer.  We were out of town at the time our order arrived and they held them so that they could be installed at our convenience.  The installer was prompt, very professional, and completed the installation quickly.  We are very satisfied with our new blinds and would highly recommend Budget Blinds of Western Triangle for both their service and their product.

Wonderful experience with Budget Blinds from start to finish. The team did an excellent job at assisting in determining the best selection for our windows and completing the installation. The schedule was as promised, installation team was on time, professional and completed the job faster than anticipated. We have used them previously and were pleased glad to see they are continuing to stay at the top of the game.

Eric and JC called a couple hours early, to see if they could come early.  I was available so I said yes.  They were professional, courteous respectful and friendly.  They were finished quickly and let me do a walk around to see how awesome the new blinds looked.   I am very happy with the install they did (quality work) and very happy with the quality of the blinds even if they were a bit pricey. 
I'm very happy with the company and the quality of the work as well. I highly recommend.

We appreciate and thank you for this feedback and agree with you that this information should never, ever be delivered in a condescending or unprofessional way.

The original visit was on time.  The sales person was professional and friendly, listened to my needs and suggested a product for my windows.   She did all of the measurements that day (10/30) and told me I should expect delivery in time for Christmas.   Although the product was in I was not able to get them installed until 12/28 due to my schedule.  The installers ran ~30 min behind scheduled time but called to make sure I was aware of that and okay with it.  When they arrived they were professional, friendly and efficient.  They removed all of the miniblinds and hung the shutters in ~2 hrs.  I could not be happier with the product and with the process.  I would use them again and would recommend them to others.

We were extremely pleased to work with Tristi who came to the house to show us the products.  She made excellent suggestions about products, helped us think through the implications of the various options we were considering and helped us make cost-effective choices.  Her suggestion to consider Murano blinds for the living room, dining room and den was brilliant - dressy, but less expensive than plantation blinds and much better suited to our windows and decor.  In the upstairs rooms, we realized that we did not need expensive blinds and are very pleased with the lightweight, but effective aluminum blinds.  We chose honeycomb blinds for the windows to a screened porch - so easy to use and perfect for letting in light while maintaining privacy.  Although we also discussed using film for a bathroom and panels on either side of the front door, we ended up doing the window ourselves, which we could do for considerably less money.
The installation was done on time.  One error was made in the color of the blinds for one of the rooms, but replacement blinds were ordered and they arrived and were installed within a couple of weeks.  The installers were courteous and efficient.
It's been six months and we are still thrilled with our purchase.
