We hired a general contractor and agreed to use all of their selected subcontractors except for a small subset we insisted on selecting ourselves, including High Tech Screens & Shades. We thankfully discovered High Tech Screens via online searches, and validated them through our Windows & Doors subcontractor/reseller. (we installed the highest end Marvin Ultimates and Marvin Moderns throughout our project) High Tech (Josh and Justin) arrived as scheduled, and always on time. They assessed and installed custom screens on four of our doors, including two outswinging french doors (2 screens on each), and two single outswinging doors. High Tech's attention to detail and quality work is notable. The finishes match our door trim as desired. The function of the screens are excellent, and the screens "hide-away" from view when not in use / retracted. Further, High Tech's screens and craftsmanship are so good that we unfortunately had a worker inadvertently walk through one of them after installation (the installation was so clean he didn't see the screen). Josh and Justin found time to return to the site within 48 hours and repair the screen so that it works like new. We cannot recommend highly enough High Tech Screens & Shades. If you are looking for a professional job/installation for screens for a high-end home, they are the truly the only firm you need to consider.

I spent an hour trying to untangle it myself, and after a tantrum on the floor like a 2 year old, put it in my car and took it to Shades of Marin after finding them on Google. I expected them to tell me that it had to be re-strung, or that they could not help with a Hunter Douglas. These two guys untangled it on the spot. No intake form, deposit, or long wait for a back-room repair, or back to the manufacturer. They won me over, and are now my go-to for any new or repair shade service. Nice guys, and old-fashioned great service. The good old days are alive and well at Shades of Marin!

What a pleasure it has been dealing with Leila and her crew! From my first inquiries, throughout ordering process, and through to the seamless installation Leila was so helpful, informative, thorough, clear and patient with my endless questions.

They repaired the screw holes left by the old awning, even repainting the repairs and sweeping up the patio before they left. Leila, obviously an expert, was up on the ladders working along with her crew. Such a lovely experience and an excellent product. Five stars is not enough!

Our awning was frozen mid-extension and the wind was getting more blustery by the minute. Needless to say, I was nervous to incur any damage to the awning or home. Over the phone, Leo troubleshooted and we were quickly back in business. He was unflustered, upbeat and decisive. His wife was also helping, so we felt like we had the Quayle team behind us. Leo ended the call with a reminder: "call me anytime" there is a problem. Hello? This was a Saturday; nice of him to say that. He remembered us as clients. This isn't the first time we've reached out to Leo and he's always been happy to help us. Wow - that's service. Installing an awning is a luxury. But is also an impactful way to add an extra room to our home, especially as often as we enjoy spending time outside and entertaining. We have been so happy with our decision to add this feature to our home, when you couple that with Leo's skill and professional support, we know we went to the right business. People often ask me where we purchased our cute awning. Today I am reminded today what a pleasure it is to refer friends and professionals (contractors, landscapers etc.) to this local family-run business. Thank you, Quayle!
