It was the 2nd time the bathroom…read morehad been papered (same design) and having been through a bad installation the first time, I was more educated on vetting another contractor for the job. He did show up when he said he would and did what appeared to be good prep of the walls. However installation wasn't great. I had to stand there and watch to make sure he paid attention to detail. It ended up being better than the first very, very poor installation but it wasn't difficult to do a little better than that. Also, he didn't really seem to care when I asked about fixing the problems and he offered a really weak excuse blaming the paper (which was expensive and good quality). I paid him $500 which isn't terrible, however it's not great for a mediocre job. And -- he had the nerve to send me a thank you note afterwards. It's very concerning to deal with a contractor who doesn't seem to have pride in his work or any concern about doing the best job he can. I cannot recommend his wallpaper work.

The cost is muted when you see you own finished product. When time hasn't been on my side, a reference or two can be obtained. However, don't shy away from even asking a pro-painter for a name and number while they're waiting for an order.

It came out very nice and I am very pleased. The man was friendly and all business. My only complaint is that when he left on Friday he said I will be here tomorrow between 8:30/9:00. I waited for him to come but no show so I contacted the owner who apologized for him saying he would be here but because it was a holiday weekend he would not be here until Tuesday. I could have got together with friends had I known that before noon. That is my only complaint.

We engaged Middlesex Shades and Blinds to replace some problematic shades that were installed in…read moreour residence. We were unfamiliar with them and apprehensive in general due to a poor experience with a prior business. Not only did Middletown Shades and Blinds solve our problems for us, they exceeded our expectations in every way. It was evident from the beginning that the owners of the business, Mike & Vinny, placed customer satisfaction as their highest priority. They responded quickly to all communications, were professional and courteous at all times, listened closely to our needs, and we're mindful of costs, never 'over-selling' their services at any point along the way. Middletown Shades and Blinds is a different kind of business, the kind that you rarely find anymore. The owners of the business, Mike & Vinny, really care about what they do. They go above and beyond for their customers, and in the end it shows.
