I appreciate that he showed up very promptly to give me an estimate. Also, when the blinds came in, he worked his schedule around mine and again came in very promptly to install them. A competing company never returned my call and text which led me to go with shades on wheels. Customer service is important. read more

Because I have worked with Shades on Wheels so many times, I wanted to write a thoughtful review, so sorry if it's long! The best shades and blinds are found at Shades on Wheels which serves towns on the South Shore of Boston and in other areas of Massachusetts and Connecticut. Barbara Thomas and Shades on Wheels bring the showroom to you! She makes it so easy. Don't waste your time searching other options. Barbara is your gal for residential and commercial custom shades and blinds installations. There is simply no debate. When Barbara Thomas came to my houses and place of business for window covering consultations, she always made suggestions that only someone with her expertise can make. They were things I never would have thought of. Barbara showed me options from her sample books, laser measured to microscopic accuracy and ordered from the best window treatment vendors in the world. Each and every time I have used Shades on Wheels, the installations have been flawless. Not only were her professional installers lightning fast, but so neat and tidy I hardly knew they were there. All of my shades and blinds perform perfectly and I get tons of compliments. It has been completely stress-free and absolute pleasure working with Shades on Wheels and Barbara Thomas. Decades spent in the shades and blinds business has earned Shades on Wheels the elite status of being a Hunter Douglas Priority Dealer and the prestigious Hunter Douglas Certified Kirsch Diamond Award. It's no surprise. She participates in all the webinars and trainings offered by her premium vendors, has been the Best of Houzz every year since 2016, and received Angie's List Super Service Award. Barbara knows her product better than anyone else around and is not someone who just jumped into the custom blinds business. Shades On Wheels sells and installs custom window treatments like honeycomb blinds, motorized shades and blinds for skylights and windows, roman shades, woven wood blinds, wood blinds, interior wood shutters, plantation shutters, vertical blinds, mini blinds, roller shades, sunscreen shades, cellular shades, pleated shades, sun shades, blackout shades, horizontal blinds, modern and traditional draperies. Too many to name! As are the manufacturers she works with like Hunter Douglas, Graber, Horizons, Lafayette, Landmark, Levolor, Kirsch, Comfortex, Carole, Castec, Robert Allen, Norman, Worldwide and more. Everyone wants to work with Barbara. The last thing I'll say is about DIY shades and blinds. Maybe you're thinking of purchasing and installing shades or blinds yourself. Good luck with that. First of all, the measurements have to be precise, and by precise I don't mean to the quarter inch. Windows, skylights and doors don't fit into perfect, geometric openings to begin with, and structures shift which of course changes the corners causing the angles to skew. The word "custom" means done to order according to specific measurements and needs, therefore all shades and blinds are "custom." You buy and install "custom shades and blinds" because you are fitting them to your windows. Shades on Wheels goes so far beyond "custom" we need to invent a new word! So, go for it! You won't regret it. read more

I had only the best experience with Shades on Wheels. They came to my new home, gave me great options for my budget, did not try to oversell any products. I was given excellent advice.

This is a true family business which is very rare today. Any concerns are addressed immediately by the owners. AND I HAD NO CONCERNS.

We just had Shades on Wheels install custom shades throughout our home. This was not the first time we used them. Fourteen years ago they installed shades throughout that house too. We were so happy with them over the years, that we never thought about looking for a different shade company. Making a decision this time around was difficult because we were investing in custom blinds. I had them come back three times, re-quoting and discussing different ideas. Not once did they ever seem bothered by this and I agree with Margery F., they were not pushy or did they try to oversell. As far as installation, they were willing to accommodate my schedule. The work was done very professionally. The nice thing about Shades on Wheels is we know first hand how reputable they are and if we have any problems in the future, they are only a phone call away. They stand behind their products. I would highly recommend their products and services to anyone. read more
