From the phone call to make an appointment for service to the installation of the shades, I am totally satisfied with this company. I needed shades for 11 windows, with remotes for 4 of the windows. Promise made and promise kept.

The ordering process was smooth. The shades came in on the predicted timeline. They called to schedule the install and actually showed up on time! They were professional from start to finish. Very satisfied and would highly recommend.

Owner of company came out to measure room and had all he equipment needed for the job, thorough and professional. Had the shades ordered and installer cam to put in and realized one of the shades was measured wrong. One window was inch to narrow, and had to be reordered. He installed the hardware so all we had to do was clip it up. No big deal and happy to do it. Looks great and works perfectly.

The install was great as well as the initial meeting with the field sales rep. My issues were with the owner/manager and her lack of professionalism.
Response from A Shade Better
"Please allow me to apologize for one of our previous staff members actions/words. We pride ourselves on superior customer service and we obviously did a poor job of accommodating your request to move your installation date. This is far from typical behavior and I assure it won't happen again. I will mail you a coupon for 25% off any purchase up to $2500. While this won't "right the wrong" I hope it helps. Again, please accept my sincerest apologies."

It went excellent with them. They cleaned up after themselves. They were very neat. I had to order some parts, and they were really good at helping me with getting blinds. They were good at ordering me some new slats. I would recommend them.

I needed blinds for 14 windows. I was helped almost immediately upon entering the showroom. I was shown different types of blinds, with the pros and cons of each described to me. Someone came to my home the very next day measure and match the stain on the windows. Two weeks later, the blinds were installed. I was so pleased with not only the blinds, but with the service, that I ordered blinds for an additional 8 windows. Someone actually came out that very day to measure. The price may seem high, but the windows are long, and the service was great.

I THOUGHT THE LADY WAS VERY BUSY TO TAKE CARE OF OUR SMALL ACCOUNT. THE COST WAS HIGH FOR BLINDS THAT COVER SEVEN WINDOWS. I REALIZE WE GOT CUSTOM PRODUCTS AND THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL. THE WERE INSTALLED VERY WELL.

I THINK THAT THEY ARE A GOOD COMPANY AND THAT THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS. IF SOMEONE EVER ASKED ME IF I KNEW SOMEONE TO GET THE JOB DONE, I WILL GIVE THIS COMPANY'S NAME OUT TO ANYONE.
