I've been shopping at JC Licht since I was about 15 years old--roughly 40 years--and I've been a…read moreprofessional painting contractor since I was about 25. I'm 57 now, with approximately 32 years of professional painting experience. Unfortunately, I've had multiple issues with professionalism at the Hinsdale location involving Justin and Jacob. My original issue with Justin started because I was trying to figure out why Pecos Spice didn't cover in two coats. Instead of helping me figure out what happened, Justin turned it into a personal argument. He insisted that every job--light or dark--needs primer. When I explained that I'm a professional painter and that isn't how bidding works in the real world, he tried to pull rank, saying he was a professional too and had owned his own painting company. He told me his work would look better than mine because he would have used primer. In my experience, 9 times out of 10, a darker color covers over a lighter color in two coats. When going from a dark color to a significantly lighter color, I agree that primer is necessary for coverage. But darker colors over lighter colors normally cover fine in two coats. I can't automatically charge every customer for primer plus two finish coats when most painters are bidding two coats. I wouldn't remain competitive. Pecos Spice was an unusual coverage problem, which was why I was trying to figure out what happened. Instead of acknowledging that two coats normally works and helping with this particular situation, Justin became combative and accused me of "disrespecting" him. I don't go to JC Licht to be talked down to or lectured. I expect employees to help contractors solve problems, not try to prove they're better painters than the people buying the paint. I contacted corporate, the situation was addressed, and Justin was required to apologize to me. More recently, one of my customers contacted the Hinsdale store regarding a painting project. During that conversation, Jacob told my customer there had been previous "interactions" with me at the store. I found that extremely inappropriate. Saying there have been previous "interactions" with a contractor carries a negative implication when you're speaking directly to that contractor's customer. Whatever technical disagreements or complaints I've had with JC Licht employees are between JC Licht and me. They shouldn't be brought into a conversation with my customer in a way that could negatively affect my professional reputation or business. I called Jacob specifically to clarify what he meant. He acknowledged that "interactions" was a poor choice of words. Our conversation also returned to previous disagreements about paint-application recommendations, which reinforced my concern about why my history with the store was brought up to my customer at all. When I continued trying to understand what had been communicated, Jacob told me he didn't want to keep discussing it. Toward the end he asked, "You're not going to call me back again, are you?" As a service-business owner, I found that incredibly dismissive. I would never say that to one of my customers when they were trying to resolve a legitimate concern. I subsequently spoke directly with JC Licht management. I appreciate that management listened, agreed the situation needed to be addressed, and said they would speak with those involved. I've had good experiences at other JC Licht locations, so this review is specifically about Hinsdale. After roughly 40 years as a JC Licht customer and more than three decades as a professional painting contractor, I expect disagreements to be handled professionally. Most importantly, my previous disagreements or complaints with employees should never be characterized to my customers in a way that casts me or my business in a negative light.

Recently, they're carrying mainly Benjamin Moore products, but I believe they'll color match from other companies for you, too. Over the years, staff members have come and gone, but Jason (the manager) here is stellar. I've found that whenever there's an issue or request from a client, he always goes above and beyond the call, not only to satisfy the customer, but to make them feel comfortable, too. He seems to go out of his way to make personalized conversation and to be honest, he's the main reason I keep coming back. If you have a paint question of any magnitude, he'll not only answer it for you precisely, but also in a manner in which you'll have no trouble understanding it. Try getting that kind of service at Home Depot.

I preface with this so readers understand that this review is coming from a tough judge! I received a couple of quotes from local companies when searching for window coverings. I called Anion after reading a stellar review from a colleague of mine (we are real estate brokers at the same brokerage, so our sphere is always sharing referrals for home-based projects). Each person I dealt with at Anion impressed me, starting with the very first phone call and ending with installation. Anion is a family-ran business, offering a noticeably more personable customer experience than dealing with larger big-name companies. They also provided me with the most competitive quote. Lucas came by for my original quote. I had only a very vague idea of what I wanted -- but he seemed to know exactly what I was trying to convey. He knows his stuff. He brought samples of several types of options, giving me the ability to confidently move forward. And - when I obsessed over the many shades of white options (ha) for a certain window covering, he so graciously agreed to come back with his swatches a second time to be sure I was getting just what I wanted. My installation could not have gone more smoothly, either. Rob is a true professional with an eye as precise as mine. He was enjoyable to speak with and I immediately knew I was in good hands! He has been installing window coverings for several years and it shows. He went the extra mile in more than one way and - though very efficient with time - I never felt the work was being rushed. I ended up with exactly what I was looking - really pleased. I can refer friends, family & clients alike to Anion with confidence.

We've used Budget Blinds for the last 10 years and have recommended them to numbers family members,…read morecolleagues, and friends, until now. We moved into a new house in June, 2014. We, once again, hired Budget Blinds to dress all the windows in the house. Like in the past, they came out, they gave us a consultation, and we wound up ordering $8,000K worth of window treatments. Since June, here is what's happened. 1. Two rooms of treatments were snagged and coming apart at the seams 2. Wrong color and size of cords were installed 3. Valances were measured incorrectly and needed to be reordered and installed 4. We were told that it would take 3-4 weeks for the entire houses treatments to come in and we didn't receive everything until late November and still waiting on resolution on damaged treatments 4. Our Main Living Room's treatments were installed in November and the installer and myself noticed small tears in the seams on all three windows. Pictures were taken by the installation person and sent to my sales person. She NEVER followed up or had anyone call us to acknowledge the problem or let us know what they were going to do to remedy the problem. Finally, it's almost March and received a voicemail and email from my sales person's assistant. Better late than never, I suppose. She called to let me know that they wanted to take down one of the window treatments in our front room that was torn and send it back to the manufacturer. In other words, remove a main treatment in a room where one full window would be bare and the others not. Also, they still wouldn't let me know what was going to be done. Would they fix the treatment? Not fix it? How long would a resolution take? Will we go another eight months without resolution? They also called to tell me that the wrong pull cords were in and ready to be installed. To be honest, I've moved past this a long time ago. The cords are the least of our problems. To wrap up my review, I received an email from my sales person letting me know that they expect payment in full on all treatments. I had paid in my invoice full other than the torn treatments in my front room, which I was waiting for them to resolve before I submitted payment. They blamed the manufacturer with the delay on all these issues and would not take any blame for this entire nightmare and just treated me like someone who doesn't pay their bills in their final email. All in all, over the last ten years, we've spent about $20,000 with Budget Blinds. I think they know that we pay our bills. I just don't pay for something that's damaged without resolution. I will never use this company again nor recommend them to anyone I know. Since this has happened, I've already heard from several people that they have ALSO had a horrible experience with this company. I wish I would have asked around a bit more before hiring them again. There are other companies out there that have better customer service and workmanship. I think it's worth spending a little bit more money to get better products and customer service.
