Services
We carry multiple brands of Wood Blinds to offer the best assortment of finishes and options. Get the look and functionality of shutters at a quarter of the cost. Slats come in sizes of 2 1/2" and 3 1/2". Quality Wood Blinds are made of basswood which is a very stable and lightweight material ideal for thin slats.
The darker Solar Screen fabrics tend to allow for the best view due to the contrast of the light outside and the screen color. In the past, fabric choices were very limited - black, brown, white and were mostly used in commercial settings. With the growing residential popularity there is a great selection of Solar Screen fabrics that will complement any decor.
Honeycomb shades offer the warmth of fabric and with the wide range of colors can be an integral part of your decor. Honeycomb shades have the option of Top Down or Top down / Bottom Up offering privacy while allowing light through the open portion. Honeycomb shades, also called cellular blinds, are named for the empty pockets of air that run parallel to their seams.
Natural / Bamboo Shades sometimes referred to as Woven Woods provide light control, as well as privacy, without sacrificing style. You can transform any setting into your own tropical paradise, or for a higher-end look, you can match with drapery panels. Natural shades are a unique blend of wood, reeds, grasses and bamboo.
Drapery panels can add softness and color to any room and provide a feeling of warmth that blinds by themselves lack. We get the question all the time, "Are people still doing fabric treatments on their windows today?" The answer is yes and no. Most fabric applications are not the functional part of a window treatment.

My daughter wrote the previous review for "The Blind Guys" who came out to fix my blinds today. Andy was unaware that she was in the family room and heard the entire conversation between Andy and myself and she was as appalled at the behavior and how he talked to me as was I. I purchased my blinds from Pennys, who are known for selling good blind and drapery products, and I bought them on sale at 30% off and ended up paying $1400 just for the two living room blinds that Andy repeatedly referred to as "cheap blinds". My daughter described his behavior and demeanor quite thoroughly

I would have given them a higher review prior to today because the first guy we had out was great, fixed everything quickly and was friendly. However, today we had Andy come out to fix our blind that was lopsided. He refused to let me talk and tell him what was wrong much less ask any questions. All I heard when I would try to speak was an interrupted "I know, I know!" Which is funny since I could say anything- so how could he know? Then he went on to mansplain how everything was wrong and cheap! "Those blinds are cheap they're all cheap". Non stop talking at me! I actually

I have 2" wide horizontal faux-wood Venetian blinds. Someone pulled a cord too hard and jammed one up. These guys fixed it in one day for $5 (replacing a part). They were nice to deal with too.
