 + -1 moreWe just built a new house. The model unit had shutters and we loved the look. We started taking bids before we closed on our house. It took Costco 5 days to get us a quote. Budget blinds was our last bid. Rex came onsite and had a bid for us in 20 mins. He was efficient and very professional. Rex had the lowest bid by $600 (including Costco). We didnt fell pressured in any way. After more research the shutters are the same Norman (top of the line) shutters we were quoted by other companies. We signed the contract with Budget Blinds. Rex was very upfront with us that these are custom shutters and it will take 6-8 weeks. We receive a call 1 week earlier than we thought. The installers came out with in days. we had one small leak in one of the windows. I asked the installers to install all the windows except the leaking window (until builder fix leak), Mary (Rex wife) emailed me the next day to see how everything went and to call her to schedule the final shutter install. Working with Rex and Mary has been a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Budget Blinds.

 + -1 moreIn a word - Excellent. The company that builds the shutters did not properly prepare the frames on the larger Windows for shipping, so the were bent during shipping. Rather than making them work - the frames are nailed to the window frame, which Rex could have done, his installers told me it would be better to have the company to build a new set for the two large window (9 ft wide x 6 ft high) frames. I contacted Rex and he got right on the problem and within two weeks the new frames had been built and installed. I highly recommend Rex and Mary. I found them to be highly professional and ethical. Their installers are top notch and made sure every shutter worked perfectly before leaving.
Description of Work: Rex came out and measured all windows (10 windows for custom fit shudders). Two of the windows are 9 ft wide x 6 ft high. Rex discussed with me the different types of shutters and the pros/cons of each. We selected the polycore shutters with 3.5 inch shutters. We also selected the hidden (behind the shutter) opener - no visible post down center of shutter - hidden at back of shutter. Rex, after measuring and discussing with me the options, went off to calculate the pricing, which I have to say based on others pricing was very good for polycore shutters. Rex then came back out to discuss the quote and go over the order. While here Rex suggested I might want to consider a horizontal strip in the middle of the shutter to hide the window frame - I have Windows that slide up and down, so there is the strip where the top and bottom Windows meet. Rex told me he would add this at no extra charge. We opted to take advantage of this feature - it allows us to open/close the shutters independently.

Description of Work: The initial meeting was confusing. There was a "helper" who received constant phone calls which I found disruptive. I think maybe her daughter had a baby or something, some personal issue. That was annoying but the biggest issue was that all the couple who provided the service did was tell me over and over again how they had been doing this for 30 some years and were great. My measure of greatness is someone who listens to me. I felt they did not do that. When the husband came to measure I think he should have discussed with me where the swags fell and how wide to make them. He made assumptions because he was the expert. I understand his thought process but was not happy with being able to see the side of the window when the shade was raised. We found a way to fix it but I would have preferred to be part of the decision. We also added pleated shades to a window. The pleat is bigger than the shades near the new ones. I think that should do have been pointed out before I ordered the new ones.
