Description of Work: I had 5 window treatments in my kitchen installed and bench seat cushions and pillows for our breakfast nook made. Gary was very helpful in helping me select the fabrics and colors. He installed everything himself. The whole process was stressfree and turned out beautifully. I wouldn't hesitate to use Gary again, he is a class act.

Description of Work: Mr. McWhorter was very professional. He was warm and friendly with no pressure. He was very helpful with my decision to install roman shades. When he was installing the shades he discovered that one them was damaged, he immediately reorder it with no hastle. A few months have gone by after the installation and I am still happy. I would definitely recommend him again. (I do not know what happened to my original rating comments.)

Description of Work: This is the second time we have had McWherter do our entire house of window coverings. We were extremely pleased with the professionalism of this company both in product and service both times. The attention to detail, selections offered and quality of products are excellent. We absolutely would have no hesitation in recommending this business to anyone wanting the very best personalized service and superior installation. The owner is a true professional, with great experience. It has been our great fortune to have discovered this business.

Quality work from a stand-up guy. Gary and his son were the installers - it's really a local, family-owned business that you'll be happy supporting with your business. They confirmed over email a couple days before, came on time, and were done an hour early (1 day job). All the treatments fit very well, even though my condo has noticeable settling, and they look great. Gary was also very patient during the quoting process. Stayed with me, reacting fast, even as I changed my requirements twice. And to his being a standup guy, when we found out on the final measurement that he had misunderstood me, he honored his original quote, even though it cost him money. They also took care of the rebate paperwork for me - saving me time. I'm really happy with their work, and would definitely recommend them.

Gary came to our condo for a free consultation. We had told ahead of time generally what we were looking for and he brought with him a number of samples of different type of window shades. Once we had selected what we wanted, he then meticulously measured every every window. The order took approximately 4 weeks to be delivered. Gary did the complete install himself and we were very pleased with the finished products.

We needed living room shades and were also interested in exploring replacement of some shades in other parts of our home. Gary came to our home a few days later with sample books and ideas. He was friendly, professional and informative. We discussed shades for all the rooms and received estimates a few days later. Before we finalized the order I asked him to come out again with the samples as I wanted to make sure the color was as I remembered and he was very gracious about making another visit. The shades were installed today and are beautiful! We'll be using him again. 12-11-12

Just fine. No problems at all. Very responsive. Very professional. Fair price.
Description of Work: Gary McWherter is great. I'd broken the shade pull on my duet shade. On the phone he said it would probably have to go back to the manufacturer for repair. As it was my only choice, I agreed. When he arrived he commented that my shades actually were in very good shape and he could fix the cord right there. it took about 30 minutes max. I appreciate him setting the expectation for me. The general rule of "under commit and over deliver" seemed to be his style. I'm getting ready to call him again for another repair.

He was a really good guy. They brought up things I didn't even think about. They brought me samples. They were really good. They were very professional and very knowledgeable. They explained everything to me so I could make a decision on what was available. It is hard to find somebody this good.

He was punctual. He was professional. He does not try to up sell. He understands customer needs and rises up to the situation. He did not leave any mess. He did everything at an off site. He would bring it to the home and install it and everything took place less than an hour. He would install everything very quickly. I would use him in the future.

We called for a no-obligation in-home consultation for shades for our bedroom. Gary is knowledgeable and was very helpful with navigating the various window covering choices, styles, features, etc. He listened to us express our preferences, yet when asked for his recommendations was able to provide just the right amount of advice and help us to reach what turned out to be a great decision on how to put shades on our tricky window situation. I'd definitely use him again and recommend him to others. We got no pressure during the no- obligation in-home visit.

Initial consult: Garry was extremely patient as he explained the various options and considerations for selecting the right shutters for my room. His advice was practical and very helpful. His experience and passion for his work was evident. He was flexible with his pricing, matching a competitive quote. Installation: He and his son did the installation. They were prompt, courteous and conscious - carefully moving furniture and covering the entire room with drop clothes. My condo is 100+ years old. I doubt there is a single 90 degree angle in the entire unit. Garry & his son paid careful attention to detail, made all the proper adjustments, and the shutters look beautiful. Overall: Garry was a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with.
Description of Work: Garry installed shutters in my front windows and blinds in a back bedroom.

This is my second time working contracting with Gary. Again, he was professional, reliable and true to his word. His estimate was what I paid. I am so sorry I didn't use him when I originally put plantation shutters in other parts of my house. He totally worked around my schedule and, in fact, I had a family emergency in the midst of the order coming in. He was completely willing to put off the job (even though that meant he wouldn't get paid) and again worked with my schedule rather than his. He said he would be there at 430pm and he was there when I arrived setting up to get to work.
Description of Work: Installation of a set of plantation shutters in my living room which had existing shutters that could be seen from this room and needed to match the existing ones. He gave solid advice about what would look best and did not disappoint. It is obvious Gary takes great pride in his work and wants it to be right for the customer.

Gary came on time with a number of samples for us to choose from, was very professional in suggesting the pros and cons of various options. He did the measurements and estimated that it would take 2-3 weeks for the new blinds to arrive. They arrived on time and were installed. He came back later to adjust one blind at no charge.
Description of Work: We had window treatments made for 5 small windows in a living room bay window and two other small windows.

An absolutely positive experience. From start to finish, it went perfectly. When he was coming with samples and to give me an estimate, he was running late. He called to say he would be there in a few minutes and he was. He was thorough, professional and his estimate and time frame were as projected. He came to install, working around my schedule, not his. At the installation he was not happy with the way one of the shades fit, so he did adjusting and then had me test the shades to make sure I was happy with the fit. He also explained how they should fit and why initially they didn't. He has already measured for my next project.
Description of Work: I have two eight foot windows that look out over the bay. After calling several other companies (some responded, some didn't), I connected with Gary. He was responsive, gave great suggestions and true to his word and his work. We settled on honeycomb shades without strings.

Gary's service was excellent. I would definitely use him again and recommend him without any reservations. He is prompt, very personable, and clearly knows what he's doing. He gave me a 2-hour window on the installation and is careful to call with plenty of notice if he's delayed at any job. He removes all boxes, packing material etc. while he works and leaves no mess whatsoever. I frankly found his pricing a very good deal.
Description of Work: Gary Mc Wherter also does measuring and installation of window coverings purchased at Home Depot in Colma. I purchased blinds for my den and dining room (7 separate blinds total) thru Home Depot for app. $1900, which included $149.00 for Gary to come out and measure and then come back and install the blinds.

I FOUND GARY, THE OWNER, TO BE VERY PERSONABLE AND CREATIVE. HE WAS ABLE TO OFFER SOLUTIONS THAT WORKED, AND HE TOOK CARE OF EVERYTHING. EVEN WHEN I NEEDED TO REMOVE THE SLIDING GLASS DOOR SHADE TO REMODEL - MUCH LATER - HE CAME BY AND REMOVED THE SHADE FOR ME AND REINSTALLED IT WHEN THE REMODEL WAS COMPLETED. THAT'S SERVICE.
Description of Work: I HAD THE PROPRIETOR OUT ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS; EACH FOR A SEPARATE APPLICATION. WE DID PLANTATION SHUTTERS, BLINDS AND A SLIDING GLASS DOOR COVERING.
