We called Mr. Slats on day 1/blinds picked up on day 2 / blinds returned in brand new condition on day 3. That's it. No baloney. Don and his team are real professionals... on every count. Bang-zoom.... in a blink of an eye. Done.

Don did a fine job. He removed the shades for cleaning at his plant. He also held them for me for several weeks after they were cleaned because it took a while for my upstairs to be painted. When the rooms were painted, he installed the shades. The shades were well cleaned and nicely repaired.
Description of Work: 10 shades were removed and cleaned, 4 of which needed repair.

As stated above, it was great!
Description of Work: Had all blinds in my house cleaned, repaired where needed and rehung. I have very large cellular blinds over 3 large windows in my Living Room and two blinds over sliding glass doors in my den and my office. I have smaller metal blinds in my two bedrooms. He warned me that the cellular blinds may not hold up under their cleaning but they did and beautifully! I was very happy with them.

The good and bad news is that Mr. Slats appears to be a small shop. When I contacted the owner by phone, described the job and made an appointment for removal and pickup, he was in the field and failed to transcribed the appt. from one calendar to another. Hence, on the appointed day and time, he was a no show. I called and he was at my door w/ the hour. He was very professional and careful in the removal of the units as they were somewhat wedged together and old. His quote was a little confusing in that I agreed to pay an additional charge for removal and re-installation; but his on-sight inspection increased cleaning costs - the same as the removal and installation fee. Hence, when later he asked for additional $, I was confused. In the end, he did a great job and we're good for at least half a decade or more.
Description of Work: Wood blinds and silhouettes had not been cleaned for at least 10 years and, while not particularly dirty, needed to be cleaned.

Amazing! Perfect! Brand new looking! Even the cords that pull the blinds up and down were cleaned and looked like new!
Description of Work: I spoke with Don and made an appointment to have them come out and pick up my blinds to be cleaned. I have 2" Hunter Douglas White blinds that were quite dirty after 10 years of use. He was extremely helpful and willing to accommodate my schedule. Patty came out on a Tuesday, took the blinds off of the windows (would not let me help) and explained how they clean them. They were ready by Thursday and looked like they were brand new. I have to say, they "inconvience" of not having blinds for a day was not really that when I get to have beautiful brand new looking blinds! I can't say that it was a problem because of the quality of work they do! I would recommend Mr.Slats to anyone who needs any of your blinds cleaned!!!

Description of Work: Don came as promised and took our vertical blind slats from a very large front picture window. They came back as promised the next week and all the stains and spots were removed. We have had the blinds for about 10 years and they were very dirty. MR. Slats was even able to remove the residue from candles burning. Did a great job and would use them again.

This is the second time we have used Mr. Slats Blind Cleaners, and each time our dirty blinds came back looking like new in 2 days. They even were able to remove water rust stains completely from the fabric blinds. If you have good quality blinds, it is worth it to have them cleaned. Patti was very helpful and knowledgeable. We are very pleased and highly recommend this provider.
Description of Work: Took down, cleaned and rehung 11 blinds, some honeycomb pleated fabric, some miniblinds.

Did not tell me ahead of time that he only accepted cash, no checks or credit cards (too expensive for small business), which necessitated an extra trip to he bank since I do not carry cash. Should have been informed prior to service.

I thought he was great. They do really personal service. He was able to come to my house and take down the blinds and take them in, fix them and come back, hang them up personal type service. I have used them prior to this may be five or six years ago as well. He had been recommend by a blind place where I had purchased some blinds. I would continue to use them.
Description of Work: I used Mr Slats Blind Cleaners about three years ago for cleaning some shades and do some repairs on them also.

Went fine, we had a little miscommunication about the return date but Don was very nice in offering a slight discount for my inconvenience of waiting for him the day before. They did a wonderful job of cleaning them, all the little dead bugs are gone and they are completely white again. I didn't realize how grey with dust they had gotten. I am extremely pleased with their work.
Description of Work: Don picked up my silhouette blinds, cleaned them and a week later came back and reattached them to the brackets.
