I highly recommend Jesus at Alro. Jesus helped me with measuring my windows and installing over 12 different Shade Store window treatments in my new home. He was professional, courteous and knowledgable and did a fantastic job on my shades. In fact, there was an issue with how one of the shades was manufactured and Jesus helped me resolve the issue with Shade Store promptly. He took care of calling the Shade Store and sending back the window treatment on my behalf. I have been so happy working with Jesus on my project and look forward to working with him again soon! Highly recommend Jesus at Alro. read more

Jesus and Oscar were respectful and friendly and got the job done well. They had to come out twice and were great both times.

Daniel was great. Service was quick and efficient. He explained how to maintain the product and he even took away the old blinds I had.

The only reason they don't get 5 stars is that they "aren't allowed" to take the garbage from the installation with them, according to company policies. Other than that, I received a call to schedule delivery, a call to remind me and a call 30 minutes before the installers came. The first guy, so embarrassed that I can't remember his name, maybe Alexis; he has a long braid down his back. He was ultra polite and efficient. His partner, Elios, I believe, was also polite. They were both hard working and time efficient. They never stopped moving. They put up all 5 shades up in one hour. :). Very happy. read more

A guy from Alro came out to measure our windows and a few doors. We ordered shades from The Shade Store. While we had no issue getting the measuring done, we had a really hard time trying to get a followup install appointment made. We left voicemails, and called several times and it went straight to vmail. We ended up installing the blinds ourselves and had no issue at all doing it ourselves. So 2.75 stars for service read more

I live in a unit with very tall windows, almost 20 feet. Danny and Carlos were nothing short of exceptional throughout the numerous measurement and installation appointments. Getting these tall drapes up was no easy feat, and the two of them got the job done very efficiently. They were on time, honest, and easy to work and communicate with during each visit. Being that this type of job isn't something you need to have done every day, the folks at Alro made it very comfortable to handle dealing with. read more

Alro Custom Drapery Installation - 20 ft windows, and these guys have the ladders to handle it. - Shades & Blinds Near Me - Mountain View, California

Excellent customer service. They arrived during the window provided and were extremely efficient installing our interior shutters. They left the space clean after the installation and checked to make sure everything worked well before they left. I would recommend them. read more

Avoid if you can if you are looking for professionals looking to get the job done. Simply looking to do the minimum and get paid.

We purchased our blinds from Budget Blinds of San Francisco who uses Alro for installation. The installer was incredibly impressive, he completed all 4 windows in less than a half hour and without leaving a single bit of dust or debris anywhere. They are perfectly installed top down bottom up blinds, and track smoothly. Highly recommend! read more

We recently had vertical blinds installed on two windows in our family room. Jesus arrived on time, and was respectful of the COVID protocols in place. He worked quietly, and was finished in a reasonable amount of time. He made sure we were satisfied, and everything was working properly before leaving. He picked and cleaned up the area he was working in, that it was left as if he had never been there! Our experience with Alro Custom Drapery Installation was great, and would recommend this company to anyone looking for exceptional drapery installation service! read more

The dispatcher called me the day before the appt to confirm. The morning of the appt, the installer called me to confirm is arrival time. Upon arrival, he used shoe protectors, and was careful with my newly refinished floors. He worked quickly and efficiently. I had a couple of questions and he answered with confidence and kindness. I did have to ask for documents that came with the product; being offered the would have been better. I highly recommend this company. read more

Danny came in and did a masterful job installing our shade store shades. He was quick, careful and efficient--it's clear that he has installed thousands of these. Customer service was also top notch! All around perfect experience. Don't need to look anywhere else if you need to install some blinds. read more

Alro acted as the sub contractor for installation of blinds I purchased from the shade store. The team was courteous and professional, however, their policy was to leave all the boxes and garbage from the new blinds at our house. After Arlo management learned of this issue, they promptly sent someone out the next day to retrieve the trash. Make sure you ask up front about garbage removal - other than that, the service and job done was excellent. read more

We purchased drapes and blinds from the shade store that were installed by Alexis and Helio from Alro. They provided the kind of service you hope for, but rarely see. They were polite, friendly, wore booties, explained the controls, how to charge the motors, they washed hands before installing the white curtains, and broke down all the boxes and placed them in my recycle bin.  Such service is unexpected but most welcome.  I was impressed with the entire experience. My compliments, these guys are great assets and ambassadors. Fabulous Fabulous Fabulous all around! read more

Nancy and the whole team at ALRO are amazing. I used them for measure and installation for a very delicate and complicated drapery install for a client and they were just super. Went the extra mile to resolve our issues. Were super pleasant and knowledgeable in the process. I've used them several times and each time I am very grateful for their competent service. #KHBDesigns read more

Awesome install of my RH custom track drapes. Super professional, COVID precautions were great, and the quality of the installation was perfect. Much quicker than I expected, they kept the area super clean, and they even gave me extra tips & broke down delivery boxes. Very knowledgeable! Highly recommend! read more

Excellent work installing shade for my windows 15 feet high, brought two tall ladders to do it. I highly recommend their services.

I bought shades for my house from The Shade Store. After about 1.5 years one of the valences started to fall from the wall. I called ​The Shade Store and they made an appointment for Free repair. (they stand behind their work) In less than one week, Alro called and made an appointment for repair. The customer service on the phone was 100%+ and offered different times for service, when was good for me. Santiago, my repair person, called me exactly 30 min before repair. He was polite and asked me if the time was still good (it was). When he arrived at my home he was so efficient​ and with a very pleasant personality​​y, relaxed while and respectful. I took him to the room for repair. He assessed​ the situation ~ I had a few missing parts and he went to his truck and came back with everything needed to complete the job, which he did, in about 10 minutes. Neatly cleaned up and said his goodbyes​. A perfect experience. I would use this company in a flash for any of my needs around custom installation services. You should too. Thank you,Santiago​ ! read more

Overdue review for our friendly installation team of Santiago and Alexis who installed some custom drapery from the Shade Store in our home in October. They were on time, used booties to enter the house, and did a great job. If I need installation services again, I wouldn't hesitate to use Alro. read more

As an interior designer, I have had the pleasure to work with Alfred and Alro on many installations from shades, drapes to specialty products. They provide an excellent service and work. They are courteous, reliable and I recommend them highly. I look forward to working with them on my future installation projects. read more

Alro did the measurements for my custom drapery with The Shade Store, and came in promptly, measured, and took photos. After receiving the drapery and hardware, two installers came in to do the actual install. They arrived with two small ladders for my 20 ft high windows, checked out the emergency stairwell (where they would have to bring the ladders up) and said that their ladder was too wide to fit up the stairs. (Mind you I fit a narrow 15 ft drapery hardware box up a few days prior.) Day one of pre-arranged work-from-home failed. The woman I spoke to at the office said that the owner would come the next day himself to do the install with a bigger ladder that would definitely fit through the stairwell. The same two installers from the previous day showed up with a bigger ladder. No owner. That ladder was still not high enough to reach the ceiling. Day two work-from-home failed. I'm supposed to go back to the office in the afternoon after the install is complete, so I email the scheduler right after failed attempt #2 to find out when someone is coming so I can notify my work. "Alfred who is our company owner has contacted The Shade Store. The Shade Store should be contacting you shortly." Fail #3. So here I am, sitting around at home waiting to hear from either company, and I need to get back to the office. If Alfred or Nancy stood behind their business, they should have called to explain the situation and offer some kind of solution. Instead I followed up immediately after each attempt to find out when there would be some kind of resolution. The people I interacted seemed to be very nice people, but if you are trying to get a job done then nice doesn't cut it. They had the measurements from day one--they took them down themselves! They charge a $75 fee for last minute rescheduling and cancellations. Well my time is valuable too and they just cost me two days away from the office. The fiasco didn't end there. After the plain GAVE UP on the job, The Shade Store assigned William Dahl Installations to complete the job. A guy comes to install the track only to find out that it was measured incorrectly! They didn't leave enough clearance for the motor that attaches to the track. William Dahl's guy was great and went above and beyond to get my curtains up after taking apart the track and sawing it to fit onto the ceiling. Go with them first and don't waste your time or money with Alro. read more

Alro has installed shades on several of our projects. Jesus is meticulous about both his measurements and installation. If you have any questions, he's happy to answer them. If you don't like something or want to make an adjustment, his patience and willingness to make sure the client is satisfied is his top priority. Additionally, he's always prompt, works quickly and efficiently, and knows the product well. You can depend on Alro, and Jesus, to offer quality workmanship. read more

Great job on drapery installation. Arlo fit me in quickly and did a great job. I definitely will call them again.

Installation was excellent. I even changed my mind on how I wanted the install completed in the middle of the process, and Jesus reinstalled the shade, patched the holes in the wall, AND was super nice about the whole thing (which I didn't necessarily deserve having changed my mind at the last minute). Would definitely recommend. read more

I would like to give high recommendation to the stuff named Jesus worked at ALRO. Thank you for the professional installation skills, Jesus! I really like the curtain you installed. It looks tiny and elegant. Jesus provided the best service to the customers and have the sunshine smile, I really appreciate that. After installations, he kept the grounds very clean. The new curtain even have lives through Jesus's smart hands! I surely will enjoy Alro installation curtain service by Jesus next time. read more

We needed coverings for 2 windows and 2 glass doors. They were very responsive to our request for an appointment. In advance, they asked for and we gave them general preferences so that we could choose fabrics from a reasonable (not overwhelming) set of options. Once at our house, Alfred professionally walked us through the process for choosing fabrics and hardware. When we asked for an opinion, he gave it, with confidence and direction. He advised us when a different product - a shade or drapery - would better achieve the functionality we want (e.g., privacy, ease of use). And he shared cost differences between options so that we could factor that in. All in a friendly, logical, efficient manner. We really couldn't ask for a better experience. read more

From the moment I called thru installation Alro was great. They're very professional and during the pandemic still managed to keep us in the loop. Highly recommended. We love our custom curtains! My husband says it feels like a hotel ( guessing that's a good thing ;) ) read more

Elio and Alexis installed our shades today, after Santiago measured the windows and doors. We are thrilled with their work. All was done very efficiently and in a very professional and friendly manner. They made sure that we understood how they work with a remote and were in and out of our home in no time. We highly recommend them. They came to us through the Shade Store which has a great selection of materials. read more

Jesus did a fabulous job re hanging my blind. Prompt, courteous and very helpful. Excellent

I am super impressed with Alro. They installed blinds throughout our house and they look wonderful. The team that arrived, Carlos, Alfred and Richard were on time, very professional, fast and really nice. They do not take the boxes the blinds arrive in (by mail from shade store) but they cleaned up all of the boxes / trash and neatly stacked them for easy removal. I highly recommend them! read more

Santiago was great. On time, an efficient problem-solver, and creative. Highly recommended.

I am an Interior Designer from out of state and needed a local installer for some drapes. Alro was easy to get a quote from and right on time for the appointment. The installation went in perfectly and the installer was very professional. I would use them again. read more

Just got my solar shade and blackout curtain installed. Holy cow, was that guy great. Danny was punctual, friendly, clean-cut, fast, skilled, careful, polite. Literally could not have been better. My window looks exactly the way I'd hoped. It was a totally flawless experience. read more

Danny from Alro did a fantastic job installing my new Room & Board shades. I ordered shades for my son's room and the master bedroom - one room was outside mount with a valance and the other was inside mount without a valance. Danny did the measurements as well and had good advice about the placement of the valance and the configuration of the shades below (the window configuration didn't lend itself to an obvious solution). Scheduling the measuring and installation was a breeze. And the finished product is beautiful. I'm really pleased. read more

Alfred measured and installed our roller shades from The Shade Store. They look stunning. We're very happy with the work and the friendly service. He worked fast and the result is excellent. We opted for roller shades with no valance for a modern look so precise installation was key. Some were inside mounted and others outside mounted, and some windows were quite wide. Everything went smoothly and we will definitely use Alro again for future installations. read more

I've used ALRO to provide window coverings for many properties. I am a property manager. They are professional and expert in what they do. They have high quality window coverings and are very good in the installation process. I would highly recommend them. read more

Tony and his crew installed our shades from the Shade Store. They did a great job and were very professional throughout the whole installation. My wife and I are definitely pleased with the results! read more

Gino from ALRO just installed my drapes in a new room addition. The construction company that did the work managed to install a sliding glass door off by 1/4 inch. Gino was able to install the hardware and drapes so that the defective window installation was not noticeable. There also were two other gentlemen ( from ALRO, just can't remember their names) that installed my front room window blinds and they did a great job too. All three were very respectable and polite. This is a good company to work with! read more

Alexis came to measure our windows. I was immediately impressed when he arrived w/ booties on his feet! Yay, thank you. He was friendly, while also being knowledgable and professional, addressing our needs and concerns. We would be very pleased if he is the one who installs our shades. read more

Helio and Oscar installed our roller shades purchased from The Shade Store. Very professional and they took all the boxes and wrapping so we didn't have to clean up! So nice! read more
