    One of the clips I was waiting for and had to replace on myself
    JonCris P.

    I've held off on this review for over a year now and I've tried to give VETERAN MIKE many chances to make up for it but I'm not waiting any longer... I'll start off saying that I am a VETERAN myself and that is why I went with him. Initially everything was okay with communication but then significantly decreased resulting with scheduling and installing. There were many delays and he would not respond to texts for days on end, when he did eventually there was always a unique excuse, and the job was never 100% complete. As far as the installation, it was smooth except the extension never installed and I had to find it on my own. (Pictured) After some months time, one of the clips for some reason was bent enough for the rod to become loose and fall. Mike told me he had extras and would bring them but never scheduled to come back. I had to find that solution on my own. Recently issues with the motor/batteries eventually came up and yes he finally responded to text but again never followed through with his responses. Future blinds and business will definitely go elsewhere. Good luck to you if you read this

    Mike Harvey came in and provided me a quote and conducted all measurements and placed my order late October or early November 2023, I order motorized shades and shutters for my entire house. The shades came in with no issues on Friday afternoon November 24 2023 and Mike was at my house the next day on a Saturday doing my install for the shades. Install went great, the material and quality of the shades are amazing. There was one issue with the French door bracket being the wrong one from manufacture and Mike is getting the correct bracket to install that and will be back Monday. My shutters are set for delivery this Friday and I'm on his schedule for that Monday to install only reason it's a few days in-between delivery and install is because we are going out of town! Professional, honest, and had the best pricing! I'm located in Oceanside, Ca and he has delivered excelled customer service to us and ensuring our windows are set up in a timely manner! I'll report back with another review and photos once shutters are installed next week!

    Mike came to our home and was the least pushy salesperson ever. I had 8 quotes from 8 different businesses and he was 2 of 8 who had all their licenses current. Do you know how frustrating it is to spend all your time listening to the same pitch just to find out the business isn't licensed bonded or insured?! Unbelievable! When I vetted them which I did with a microscope he was 100% legitimately. He was informative, respectful and answered all our questions. Once we signed we knew there was going to be a wait and boy was that terrible but to be honest it happens and although Mikes responses might be a bit slow at times he does get back to you. Having some patience is needed, he works hard and it's a small business but the care is there from him and he does come through. Will definitely recommend his business, job clean and well done! Wait was worth it !!!

    See all

    Budget Blinds of Menifee

    (10 reviews)

    In April 2025 my wife and I purchased a home in Menifee that had been "flipped" by a contractor…read more It had a total of 17 windows with no drapes, blinds or window coverings of any kind. Our son referred us to the BUDGET BLINDS company on the basis of a project that company had done for him in Huntington Beach where he needed 5 blinds. Budget Blinds of Menifee is a franchise location for the same company. And so one night (April 16, 2025) my wife and I spent a few hours with Sue and Rudy, the heart and soul of Budget Blinds of Menifee. They showed us numerous styles, fabrics, colors, power or manual mechanisms etc. A veritable plethora of choices. My wife made all the artistic / decorating decisions for our project and I approved the financial commitment. An order was placed to have 15 DUAL SHEER window shades (for the rectangular windows) and 2 SIGNATURE SELECT CELLULAR SHADES (for the semi-circle windows) manufactured, delivered and installed. They required, and received, a 50% down payment at the time of the order. It was understood that the order cycle was a few weeks to have our blinds and shades manufactured to order. 5 weeks later, (May 20, 2025) Rudy and Sue arrived to install our blinds and cellular shades. It was at this point we first learned that the fabric my wife had requested for the two cellular shades was no longer available and we would have to select something else. In the meantime, Rudy set about installing all 15 window blinds. Over the course of the next few hours I learned that the second installer that Rudy had scheduled had decided to "NO SHOW" without any advance notice. But thanks to Rudy's commitment to their customer, his patience and exceptional skills, he worked long, hard and solo and got the 15 window blinds installed. The two semi-circle windows were left uncovered and open to the sun. My wife and Sue picked out a suitable second choice and Sue indicated they would be ordered. The next day I received a PAID invoice indicating my project was complete. I let them know it was NOT complete and wouldn't be complete until we received the two cellular shades. That was two months ago. After calling and leaving messages tonight (July 22, 2025) , I learned that the second fabric was also out of stock and that it had not come to Sue's attention until I followed up. While there were some extenuating circumstances in Sue's life, she did "own" the mix-up, and offered to refund any monies paid (we had not yet paid for the cellular shades). I told her to just forget it. We are now planning a different solution - replacing those two windows with UV resistant tinted glass. We love the work that Rudy and Sue did. We love working with them. We are disappointed that it took so much effort only to learn that Budget Blinds was not capable of covering the two semi-circle windows in the one project, at the same time, or at a reasonable recovery time. If all 17 windows had been ordered, manufactured, delivered and installed, this review would have been a FIVE STAR rating. But given how it has ended, it can only be a four star rating. It is now the heat of the summer in Menifee and we still do not have an environmentally sound solution for the two windows that allow the sunlight to heat up both ends of our house. That is really unfortunate.

    I contacted Budget Blinds regarding a broken blind pull cord. The response immediate. While Sue…read moreand Rudy were not the owners of this particular franchise at the time of my purchase, they stepped right in to resolve my issue. After 13 years of heavy use this one blind of the whole house, is the only one that has an issue. I am very satisfied with my experience. I recommend Budget Blinds.

    Our experience with The Shutter Guys was one of the best experiences we've ever had with a service…read morevender/installer. From the first meeting, measuring and estimate which was done without pressure to purchase to today's installation things were done without pressure total professionalism. When we contacted them, Dave was quick to respond and set up the appointment for an estimate. The day of the scheduled estimate he kept us updated to his arrival and came as scheduled. He explained the process and the various products we could choose from. He had samples for us an explained what options might work best considering our weather conditions etc. He presented us an estimate with no pressure for what we chose. The choice was simple and we signed the contract. He made us aware of the timeline etc which was not as issue. As per Dave's meeting and contract we were contacted about a week before installation and asked if a given day would fit our schedule. The day before the scheduled installation we were texted a reminder. The morning of the installation we were called about 30 minutes before the scheduled time of arrival. They arrived right on time. Wade and his guys (Edgar and Sean) went right to work. They were professional and extremely courteous as well as personable. They wore "booties" and had no problem with our friendly dogs. When they were finished the only thing we had remaining was BEAUTIFUL PLANTATION SHUTTERS!!! I would recommend The Shutter Guys without hesitation and will be doing so to all of our neighbors and community. Thanks to Dave, Wade, Edgar and Sean for a seamless experience.

    Excellent service from start to finish! The two installers were fantastic. They arrived exactly…read morewhen they said they would, were incredibly polite and professional, and worked very cleanly. They also did an excellent job cleaning everything up before they left. Most importantly, my shutters look beautiful! I'm extremely happy with the quality of the installation and the overall experience. Highly recommend!
