Very very happy with the Pleasanton company! Extremely professional, follow up with quotes and installation. The original quote came quickly and was very thorough. Highly recommend and we love our 3 new motorized bedroom blinds! read more

I love my shades! Super nice owner and also the great employee that did the install. With the lights off in my bedroom it is almost pitch black which is how I like it. The shades fit perfectly and look so great! read more

Super happy with our window shutters! Miguel and Fannie did an amazing job, worked fast, and everything looks exceptional. Miguel took the time to walk me through the whole process, helped to choose the right material for our needs, and came up with a great design that's both beautiful and very functional. The shutters don't block the light at all and keep the room feeling bright. Everything was prompt and easy to work with. Installation was quick and efficient. Highly recommend! read more

Miguel & Fannie are great to collaborate with! Had a very smooth engagement throughout and they were always on time, provided us with options on how to install, and communicated well throughout the process. Highly recommend working with them to help with your home needs! read more

I connected with Miguel and Fannie once we purchased our first home. Fannie is so informative and has tons of patience to answer any questions you may have. Miguel made an appointment to show us samples and get the correct measurements of all the windows. During our appointment, he also pointed out 2 windows that I completely forgot about - so glad he did! Our installer, Alonzo, was so great and paid attention to detail. He finished installation in less than 3 hrs and went over all the details prior and post installation. I'm so glad we choose Miguel and Fannie for our project. They made the whole process so seamless! read more

I'm am very thankful to my neighbor who highly recommended calling Budget Blinds, specifically Fannie & Miguel. They had installed Plantation shutters in her home which look beautiful. I had just finished having most of my home remodeled and always wanted to have the Plantation shutters as a finishing touch. I cannot begin to describe appropriately how happy I am I went with Budget Blinds of Pleasanton. Miguel arrived on time as promised to take measurements. Miguel's professionalism, knowledge and expertise is well beyond that of other companies I've dealt with on other homes. He took precise measurements and double checked everything. He explained all my options and made sure I was perfectly happy with my choices. Fannie kept regular communications with me each week to update me on the status, processing, shipment and installation date. On the day of installation they showed up on time and I can't tell you how impressed I was with how expeditiously they had the frames assembled, shutters unwrapped and everything installed without a hitch. This was 22 sets of window shutters and 1 back door! I don't know how to get this across to you in a YELP review, but if you're even contemplating getting shutters, blinds, window coverings of any sort, if you don't just go with Fannie & Miguel at Budget Blinds in Pleasanton, I guarantee you you're doing yourself a disservice! They are the best without any doubt and I highly recommend them! read more

Miguel and Fannie were great to work with. Miguel came to our house to show us samples, take measurements, and explain the many options. We had just moved and were new to buying roller blinds. Miguel patiently answered all of our questions as we worked through how best to address our somewhat nontraditional windows and doors. We decided on Lutron's Serena smart shades, have lived with them for months now, and are so happy with the outcome. Thanks Miguel and Fannie! read more

From our first meeting with Miguel to the installation with Alanzo, our Budget Blinds experience was exceptional. They were very professional, personable and patient throughout the process, which was uniquely hassle-free for home-improvement contractors these days. Our shades are gorgeous! read more

I am usually too lazy to write any review of any sort, but I almost felt obligated to leave one here simply because how great the experience was from start to finish. I moved into a new construction home with 0 window treatments and reached out to 5-10 companies, including Budget Blinds. We ended up going with Budget Blinds and had 27 shades installed (15 Lutron motorized, 12 non-motorized ones). Here's what we really appreciated: - Miguel was extremely knowledgeable right from the very first conversation. I did a ton of research on different motorization options, pricing, etc., and I was not really looking for a sales person to pitch to me. This was unfortunately the case with most of the other companies, but not Miguel. Miguel was very knowledgeable, straight to the facts, and was able to answer all of my questions. This made a big difference to us in terms of our decision. - Miguel was very patient and professional when we went back and forth between material, colors, etc. There was not a single point in the whole process where I felt rushed or pressured into anything. He gave just the right amount (and correct) advices when needed. - Fannie kept us updated throughout the whole waiting period. did not miss a single week. - On the day of the installation, Miguel and the other installer were very professional and efficient. With this many windows, I expected the whole process to take the whole day. Instead, it was done in a few hours. More importantly, they kept their face masks and shoe covers on the whole time, which we really appreciated. - There were two slight issues related to manufacturing. One shade was quickly replaced, and the other one had a loose battery compartment. We contacted Budget Blinds and Miguel came by the next day to take a look. It was a tiny issue and only took him a minute to fix. We felt bad for making him come all the way for a tiny issue, but he was very professional as always and did not mind. We have been very satisfied with both the appearance and the quality of the 27 blinds we got from Budget Blinds. More importantly, this was a rare home project for us where pretty much everything went smoothly. There was no headache, no drama, no back and forth, no calling 50 times to get a status update - instead, Miguel and team took care of everything and made sure we got exactly what we were looking for :) read more

I initially left a 1 star rating due to non responsiveness from this business. The owner reacher out to somewhat correct me thinking I was confused this business with another business. He provided me with the direct number for this location. I am going to try and reach this business again and will update my review at that point. Note to other customers, find the direct number for this location. The number on the help page with the 510 area code takes you to a representative who says they will forward a message to this store. It seems that none of my messages made it to this store. Hoping for a better experience. read more

We have used Budget Blinds twice in the last 2 yrs. 2 years ago they did shutters for all of the bedrooms in our home. We loved the shutters and had a great experience so had them come give an estimate on honeycombed shades for the front of our house. They noticed we had our lights hooked up to our Alexa, so suggested shades that work with our Alexa/Lutron app. We absolutely LOVE the shades and like that they are motorized so we can tell Alexa to open on close the shades. Miguel and Fannie have been amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for window coverings! read more

Miguel Franco at Budget Blinds did a fantastic job installing our blinds. He explains the products in detail and he works with you to find out what you're looking for and what you're budget is. You don't get the feeling like you're trying to be sold something you don't want. Prices are very reasonable, we've done our comparison. We had a total of 20+ windows in our house that needed coverings and the job was done properly. The end result is FANTASTIC. We are so pleased with his services from beginning to end. Highly recommend!!! read more

Dealing with Budget Blinds was a breath. Honest, punctual, and professional people. You get what you're promised. Being skeptical and doubting after having a bad experience with other services, Miguel and Fannie made me put my guards down by their professionalism. My windows and I love our new shutters!!! Don't hesitate to hire Budget Blinds serving Pleasanton, you won't be disappointed. Elena read more

I would give Budget Blinds of Pleasanton, 10 stars if I could. My wife and I had 17 mini blinds installed recently and every turned out better than expected. Miguel is friendly, professional and comes prepared to assist making the right choices. Everything is explained clearly and concise, with no hidden fees. Fanny did a great job, keep us posted on the status of when the materials were coming in and status of when the job would be complete. Alonzo was our installer and the guy is an artist. Pricing was very reasonable and I wouldn't think twice of using their service again. read more

Budget Blinds was quick, efficient as well as transparent. There was no surprises and I am very happy with the finished product. I would recommend over and over again. read more

Overall we were really impressed with Budget Blinds with Pleasanton. Overall after getting roughly 6 estimates from the area, we felt fairly comfortable with getting blinds through them. As a side note, they weren't the cheapest nor the most expensive of the blinds, but in the middle ground that at least worked with us regarding the pricing. What swayed us the most was for the fact that Miguel notes that one of rooms that we wanted to have a shutter in was slightly off to the due to the way the built in book cases were situated, so he recommended/opted for another type of blind. The general time line from bid to actual installation is roughly 2.5 months due to the shutters being custom and shipped from China to here (going through customs etc). A nice perk of sorts were the Wednesday email updates on the status of the shutters. The day of the installation we were greeted by Miguel and Fanny his wife/installer/co-worker. To me, it's nice to know that the person who does the measurements and gets the bid also installs the product because they definitely know more of the ins and outs versus a person who mainly gets the bids or just installs..I find it sometimes there's a slight gap in customer service when somethings goes wrong. Anyways, another nice perk since they cater to this area is for the fact, they actually live in the area which means not only you are helping a local business but a local neighbor of sorts. Since, we're really impressed with their overall pricing and craftsmanship, I plan on doing a few more shutters when the time comes. I would definitely recommend this company who wants or needs some blinds or shutters in the near or distant future. read more

Miguel and Fannie were super to work with. The last time I did window treatments, it took over 3 months and was a nightmare. I was kept informed through the entire process of ordering, production and shipping. To avoid lengthy contact, I was able to decide what type of window treatment I wanted by reviewing photos and videos of all options. Then it was simply choose the color with Miguel in my home, measure and leave. All precautions were taken for minimal contact or possible virus spreading. I will definitely use them again when I'm ready to replace some other windows. Also - the price was right!! AND lifetime guarantee. read more

Miguel was very patient and answered all my questions. He's very detailed, which I appreciated since I know nothing about window coverings. We ended up ordering Hunter Douglas shutters and a remote controlled sun shade for our oversized folding back door (which we absolutely LOVE!). Fannie was very responsive to my status request updates and kept me in the loop at every milestone. Their cost is comparable to other companies we looked into, but it was their customer service that made me go with their company. I definitely would recommend Budget Blinds in Pleasanton! read more

They did a fantastic job from start to finish! I highly recommend them. Very professional. Delivery and install was quick and easy.

They are very professional and give me lot of options, really appreciate their weekly update so I can know what is the next step The installation is very fast and they clean all the mess so I don't need to do anything but enjoy my new blind read more

Highly recommend! We needed several window treatments during a major renovation - bedrooms, living room, etc. We compared several options, (including online since my contractor was still on site) and chose Budget Blinds because they offered the best overall value and service. Fannie and Miguel were responsive, attentive and gave several options without any pressure or hard sell. They kept us updated with progress of our order and did the installation quickly. Making/changing appointments was easy and we really felt respected and that they valued our business. We also liked that they are a local small business. Would definitely contact them again for future needs. read more

From the moment I contacted Budget Blinds I was very impressed. Was able to schedule an appointment quickly and Miguel showed right on time. I explained my budget and Miguel was able to zoom right in on what I could afford. He is very personable and very easy to work with. I placed my order and continuously received email updates on the status of my order from Fannie. Once my order arrived I made my installation appointment and again Miguel arrived right on time. The blinds look GREAT and I'm a very please customer. I will definitely promote Budget Blinds to my family/friends and also go to them for my future needs. Thanks again Miguel/Fannie. -Kenny read more

Working with Miguel and Fannie was wonderful - they really transformed my family and living room (see photos). They were quick, informed me of every step in the process, and during installation, Miguel explained how the shades work as well as the remote, teaching me how to change the default settings in case I want to in the future. Also during installation, he kept everything tidy and it was quick too! What I appreciated was that I had very specific wants for my shades and instead of over promising, Miguel let me know that he had to check with the manufacturer to make sure it can be done. He was also very patient because I changed my order literally four times! The shades looked even better in my rooms than what I was expecting, thanks to his advice while looking through the thousands of fabrics. I was really impressed and looking forward to next year's project of picking my window coverings for the upstairs of my home! read more

Have used Budget Blinds a couple times with an excellent experience. The last one was 42 windows with a combo of Shutters and Mini Blinds in a new construction home. Came out great. After comparing the "great deal" my neighbor got from a different company that ended up being almost $4000 more for just the faux mini blinds, I know the price was great too. Their whole house specials really help keep the costs down. The quality and warranties are just as good as the next guy, and in some cases better. Those other reviewers are not kidding - Miguel and Fannie are a great team to work with. The entire process was smooth and efficient. Miguel's mobile showroom is really helpful for narrowing down the choices and picturing what it will look like on the window. I really like Fannie's weekly status updates so ya know they haven't forgotten about you. They're puntual and personable too. Wish all other family-owned business were run this well! read more

Fannie was great to discuss decorating options with. She called back promptly and answered all my questions. Had very good product knowledge and made some suggestions that I took to heart. Would work with her again in the future. read more

If you are looking for a meticulous, talented installer, Miguel is your man! He did our entire home with plenty windows - both blinds and shutters - and each one of them look spectacular. He can handle any size job. He is a careful worker who will respect your home and take care of every detail and will leave everything in impeccable condition. We later decided to upgrade a few of the blinds and there was no doubt that he was the one to call. The only thing to keep in mind is that, depending on the order, some things will take longer to arrive - usually a few weeks. But Miguel is worth the wait if you are looking for a detail-oriented professional who will leave your home looking FABULOUS! read more

Miguel and Fannie provided great service throughout. Miguel showed up on time during our initial consultation and spent a few hours on the customization and design that my wife and I decided on. Wednesday e-mail updates provided status updates on the order process and installation was scheduled within the 4 week promised time. Miguel and Fannie were onsite to complete the installation. That process was clean and swift. read more

Miguel and Fannie were great to work with from start to finish. I decided to replace two window treatments and Miguel was very patient and answered all of my questions. After my order was placed, I was provided an email status update week. Install was seamless and Miguel went above and beyond to to fix a couple of existing window treatments for me that were not purchased from Budget Blinds. Who does that? Budget Blinds does. I highly recommend! read more

We did our plantation shutters with Miguel and team. From the start, we were impressed with Miguel as his quote was detailed and we clearly understood what we were receiving from him. He also gave us possible options and price ranges that helped us make our decision process easier. One point I really liked with Miguel and team is that, right from initial conversation/ quote, measurements, installation is all done by Miguel and his team.. so know there is no question of dropping off the ball with measurements. And he and team did a clean installation. ! read more

Miguel and Fannie did a great job! We are very satisfied for their professional input and service. Highly recommended.

Miguel and Frannie are the best. Even though the factory made a mistake in making one section of our blinds they jumped in and got us temporary ones and expedited the replacement. They are also taking care of us regarding a chain control for sliders that we had forgotten to order as an option. Budget Blinds of Dublin and Pleasanton owned by this couple is my go to place for Blinds, Drapes etc. read more

These folks were terrific ! And the quickest and most responsive to my Yelp quest to find a good, quick blind company in my area. Some of the others never responded. Budget was on time, quick, courteous and professional yet very one-on-one friendly. Because ALL their blinds are custom fit and made, the order took a bit more time than I would have liked, but they were installed as soon as they came in. Blinds looked and functioned perfectly. Couldn't ask for better and I highly recommend them. Tom B read more

There is not 6 stars so 5 will have to do. If you live in Dublin/Pleasanton-STOP!! This is the company you want. We priced Costco 1st, then called BB after reading their Yelp reviews. We had our beautiful shades & shutters installed yesterday. Miguel & Fannie did not disappoint. The materials are high quality & our installer,M. Angel was so sweet and worked his tail off doing several large windows. Their installation has changed the look and value of our home and we are beyond thrilled.
