I interviewed three other companies before deciding to go with them. Unlike the constant negotiation and bait-and-switch tactics I experienced with other stores, Wassim and Jiji provided an honest and fair evaluation and pricing. I'm very satisfied with the results. Even when one of the shutters was ordered incorrectly, they immediately took responsibility and resolved the issue without hesitation. They are honest business owners who are truly passionate about and proud of their work. I highly recommend Wassim and Jiji to anyone looking for an honest, trustworthy, and reliable company to work with.

Let me just start of by saying I LOVE MY ROLLER SHADES. My husband and I recently finished out home…read moreremodel project and has recently moved back. The only issue we had was that we had no privacy because there were no window coverings anywhere. After researching a few companies we ended with reaching out to to budget blinds and meeting with Lea. She was efficient in answering all of our questions and taking a look our out windows to help narrow down exactly what we want. Previously before our remodel we had shutters, but I had some concerns about bringing that back into our home. I was very interested in the roller shades and she was able to show me how that would work for our home. We ended up picking a color and tried that would work for our home. Plus we did drapes for one of our bedrooms. Michael came and did our installation and he was great! Installation took a couple hours, which its to be expected considering we had about 16 windows. But now that everything is done. it looks amazing! We chose some shades that allow light to filter to through during the daytime and still allows privacy at night. I am absolutely in love with the choices we made and happy to have gone with that company. If you are considering windows I would definitely at least reach out to Lea.

The JMK team was quick to respond to our request for free in-home consultation. We informed JMK that we had a newborn baby, and they were accommodating to our needs when it came to scheduling. Rommel (owner), was the person that we got to meet in person. He was very professional and knowledgeable (you can easily tell). We didn't know much about shutters other than it looks great, but he provided pros and cons with various customization possibilities as we tried to explain our vision. Ultimately, we went with JMK as we felt the trust and comfort with the quality of service and materials thus far. The lead time for the shuttters were exactly what he said. Again, very flexible when it came time to scheduling the installation part. Rommel's team, (two guys whose names I wish I remembered to give credit), arrived promptly, were professional and considerate of our home now that a bunch of furniture and boxes were in the way...and a sleeping baby. The installation of five windows was completed in under a couple hours. My wife and I are extremely happy with how everything turned out. We went with the white flushed frame, bi-fold, 2/3 split design. It was the first step into making our place feel like a home. 10/10 recommend JMK. Thanks Rommel and team!

At the time we were doing remodeling of our home so we couldn't have them install the shutters right away. They were very accommodating with our time frame. When they installed the shutters, they all looked beautiful! They did fantastic job with installing them. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for shutters to be installed at your place. We think the pricing was fair as well. I don't remember pricing though but I do remember that my parents thought it was fair value. I totally forgot about them until my mom asked me last night because her friend wanted to get shutters installed so my mom asked me to find this place's info to send to her friend. :)

Had a great experience with this company. We needed to replace the sheer drapes in our master…read morebedroom, and replace the lining of the drapes in our family room (they were sun damaged and we did not know relining them was an option). Aleksandra was great. It was easy to set up an appointment with her, was punctual, she was very knowledgeable about providing options for us, very professional, and gave us a very competitive quote. Tony removed the drapes in our family room and came back later to install the new/relined drapes. He obviously has a lot of experience with this, worked very quickly, and was also very professional. Most importantly we are very happy with the result.

We used Bay Area Window for four skylight shades…read more Design (Aleksandra): 5/5 Aleksandra was communicative and responsive throughout the process. She provided meaningful options and we are happy with the design. We discussed with Aleksandra that we wanted the shades installed as close to our skylights as possible, and she confirmed with the installer that that was possible. Install (David): 2/5 We did a walkthrough with David and again explained that we wanted the shades as close to our skylights as possible. He asked, and we told him, that we also wanted the solar recharging panels to be on the side where the shade collected when opened (so the panels would be less visible). To be fair, David warned us that he would likely scratch the walls and may leave gaps because the coverage around our skylights was uneven. Both of those came to pass (which I am separately fixing), but that is not why we are unhappy with the install. Rather: - Despite the fact our ceiling is flat and our skylights are flat, David installed the shades at a slight angle. When I confronted him about it, he stated he was trying to follow the wall around the skylight. I disagree that his approach accomplished that. In any event, if there were options as to how the shades were going to be installed, we believe David should have conferred with us before unilaterally making a decision. - David also installed the solar panels on the opposite side of where we discussed. David stated he had no recollection of our prior conversation. We disagree that we never discussed this, but as above, if there were options, we believe David should have checked with us before installing. After confronting David about the shade with the most severe angle he begrudgingly reinstalled it (photos attached). Aleksandra did offer a partial refund and offered to have David come back out and reinstall the shade. However, we do not have the availability to monitor David the entire time he is here, which appears to be the only way to ensure things are done as we discussed. Additionally, the 3 of the 4 corner covers have fallen from the shade that David reinstalled and we do not relish the same thing happening to the other shades. The upshot is Aleksandra is easy to work with, but if you get David to do your install you may want to supervise his work.

We've been thinking of new window treatments since we replaced our street facing windows…read more We saw a brochure at Costco advertising Graber blinds. But we procrastinated and never acted on it. Then at the HMB Pumpkin Festival this past October Bay Home & Window had a booth. We stopped, talked, and make an appointment for a consultant to come out. After a scheduling delay due to overbooking at the Festival we got an appointment. On the day of the appointment the window designer Sarah was on time. Based on our needs she made recommendations which we concurred with. Measurements were taken and an order was placed. We paid 1/2 advance. Over the next two month projected timeframe we received email updates. When our product arrived to the warehouse we received a call for installation date. This afternoon our window installer arrived within the two hour window. Robert A. He was friendly and very competent. He completed our installation in 1/2 hour. We're very pleased with Bay Home & Window from start to finish.

Budget Blinds of Berkeley and Richmond was fast, easy and pleasant to work with, and the product is very good. On Saturday, I submit an request for an appointment and a staff person texted me back right away to acknowledge the request, even though it was Saturday. So, they really pay attention! A gentleman named Mass came to my home to measure and show products; he arrived on time and had answers to all my questions, and brought a large, well-organized showbook of many samples that I could touch and compare. Mass does not do a "hard sell." He is understanding and easy going. My shades took 2 -3 weeks to arrive, which is typical of custom-made shades. It was easy to schedule installation soon after their arrival. The same person, Mass, does both the measuring and installation. He did a great job installing the blinds quickly. The manufacturer made an error on the small kitchen blind, which was replaced and installed literally within 5 business days. Custom blinds, with professional measurements and professional installation, are not cheap. But if you want it done right and done quickly, and pleasantly, Budget Blinds of Berkeley and Richmond is the way to go! Very happy with product and service!
