We had our shutters and blinds installed about three years ago when we moved into our newly built…read morehome, and we are still extremely happy with our decision today. We originally contacted this company based on a friend's recommendation, and working with Mike Cooper turned out to be one of the best parts of the entire process. Choosing colors, materials, and designs was honestly overwhelming at first, especially since we had not even moved into the house yet, which made it much harder to visualize everything. Mike was incredibly patient and calm throughout the process. He walked us through every option, helped us imagine how everything would look in a brand new space, and provided thoughtful guidance that made a huge difference in our final decisions. Thanks to his help, we chose designs that still look great and feel perfect for our home even three years later. The pricing was very competitive for the brand he recommended, especially compared to other installers for the same brand that I consulted at the time. Mike also explained that the brand came with a lifetime warranty, and I really appreciated that this was not just a sales pitch. Last summer, when one of the blinds suddenly stopped working, they promptly came out and replaced it at no cost, exactly as promised. We use these shutters and blinds every single day and remain just as satisfied as when they were first installed. Excellent quality, outstanding service, and a company that truly stands behind its word. Highly recommended.

It's great that Matt handles both the estimate and installation and really knows his stuff (he'll truly walk you through the pros and cons of each option). Matt and Mike knocked out the install quickly and painlessly. Highly recommend!

But the failures of this vendor begin and end with a lack of communication and service. This has been the single worst experience with a Yelp merchant ever. Don't waste your time. The guy doesn't return calls, doesn't follow up. His word is crap. He installed motors in our shades (that took forever) and when one of the motors burned out after less than a year, came and picked the motor up with a promise to get it replaced by the manufacturer. That was December and the last we heard from him despite numerous follow ups from our end. No excuses. Just a lousy way of doing business.

Title: Trent and Budget Blinds Delivered -- Quality, Value, and Speed!…read more We recently worked with Trent from Budget Blinds of Rancho Peñasquitos to install two custom shades for our French doors leading to the back patio. We were hoping to match a set we had originally commissioned eight years ago when we moved into our home -- a tall order given the style, material, and craftsmanship involved. Trent was the third vendor we interviewed. The first quote was exorbitant. The second was more reasonable -- about 40% less. But Trent? He nailed it. From the moment he arrived, he was personable, perceptive, and clearly experienced. He understood our goals, showed us a swatch that matched our existing shades perfectly, and offered a solution that was both elegant and functional. Even with inflation, Trent delivered a beautifully crafted and professionally installed set of shades -- at a 67% discount compared to our first quote. And while other vendors quoted 3-4 weeks for delivery, Trent had them installed in just 12 days. The shades now block the afternoon sun from our breakfast nook exactly as intended. The entire experience was smooth, pleasant, and refreshingly professional. Trent and his team exemplify quality, integrity, and value. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Budget Blinds of Rancho Peñasquitos to family and friends.

From start to finish, she was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive--even when I wasn't available to see things in person. She went above and beyond by sending detailed photos, walking me through options, and providing thoughtful explanations so I could make informed decisions remotely. In fact, when it came down to design choices, I trusted her recommendations completely--and she nailed it. The end result looks fantastic and functions perfectly. After installation, Katie personally came out to help me program everything and made sure it all worked seamlessly. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for the outcome really stood out. I would wholeheartedly recommend Katie to anyone looking for expert guidance and execution for window covering design solutions. She made the process easy, stress-free, and truly excellent from beginning to end.

If you have priced installed made-to-order window coverings, you have probably found that the…read moreprices vary, as well as the quality of the products. Understanding this, my wife and I needed some new window coverings for our living room, dining room and a guest bedroom. We researched until we found five companies that had a large number of high reviews, above 4.8 on a scale of 5. We found all the sales people to be pleasant and their offerings varied, but one stood out above the rest, and that was Window Spaces. A small, local company, Katie, the owner, came for the estimate. After measurements, and spending time understanding what we wanted, she provided several options, with various price points. She was patient, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and seemed focus on matching our wishes with our needs. We indicated we wanted quality products. She gave us a bid that included Hunter Douglas products, a Roman blind for the guest room and draperies from the Hunter Douglas owned drape manufacturer. Of the five bids we received, Katie's bid was both the lowest and had the highest quality products. In fact, we had a bid from a company that deals solely with Hunter Douglas and when I called to let him know we would be going with another company that also offered Hunter Douglas. He asked if I could share the bid. I said it was a couple of thousand less than his bid. He seemed surprised and doubtful, but I assured him the bid was very explicit and Window Spaces listed the specific products, fabrics and manufacturers. Katie told us specifically the time frame for manufacturing, shipping and installation. She sent us confirmation of the orders to the manufacturers and their promised shipment date. Her customer skills are outstanding. She kept us informed and let us know when a part of the order arrived and offered to have it installed sooner than the promised date if we wished. On the day of installation, Hunter arrived first to install the blinds and was followed by Katie. Katie came in and she and Hunter installed the drapery sheers. Then she steamed them making sure they hung just right and picture perfect. There is something reassuring about dealing with a small business owner who obviously enjoys and is committed to the quality of her craftsmanship and serving her customers. For Katie, you are not only a customer, but you are part of the community she lives in, you are a neighbor. When the job was done, we felt we had found a truly exceptional company to handle our future needs, plus we had made a new friend.

I called Harmony and they told me to bring the shade by and they would try to see if they could fix it. Unfortunately, because the shade was 10 yrs. old, they could not repair, so they contacted the manufacturer (Hunter Douglas).

Definitely recommend this company as their products are outstanding and customer service is excellent.

As with any order, it's always important to verify your products, make, color, and design decisions as it's easy for installer or customer to miss something.

Frank is always excellent with scheduling follow-up, you reach a real person by phone or text and I would readily recommend Harmony. I'm sure I have better photos but this is the product I had most recently installed. Well done Harmony for your continued great service.

Hunter Douglas Roller Shades - Measurement Issues…read more We have owned Hunter Douglas shades in multiple homes and have always liked the quality of the products. This review is not about the shades themselves, but about the measurement and installation. We had previously worked with San Diego Shades and had a great experience, which makes this outcome especially disappointing. This time, instead of their technician, they sent the sales rep to do the measurements. All of the shades installed in our home were measured and cut slightly too small, leaving the wooden window frames visible on the sides when the shades are fully closed. While this may sound minor, it affects both the look and function of the shades. The issue is most noticeable in our bedroom, where we installed motorized room-darkening roller shades. Light still comes through the sides, which defeats the purpose of a room-darkening shade. I raised my concerns right after the upstairs bedroom installations, but the issue was dismissed with an explanation that didn't address the problem and did not and does not make sense. At the time, we were in the middle of multiple home projects, and I assumed I would eventually get used to them. I didn't -- and it continues to bother me every time I see them. When the downstairs shades were installed and had the same issue, I escalated the concern to a supervisor, and two of the cheaper shades were eventually replaced. Unfortunately, the bedroom shades were never corrected. Even now, the measurement issue is noticeable and frustrating. For a professional installation, I expected better attention to detail and follow-through. My advice: carefully review measurements and finished results before signing off.

There were numerous problems with the installation, and the interior design company eventually had to contract with the installer from Pacific Shutters and Shades to fix it for them.

I drove to Pacific Shutters and Shades and made my purchase after a good conversation with the owner. The installer came out the next day to measure, then when the new shades arrived, he came out to do the installation. Everything went perfectly. I now have Hunter Douglas shades on most of the windows in my house and half of the skylights. If I decide to buy more, I will absolutely buy them from Pacific Shutters and Shades.
