The Beyond Shades team went well beyond what I expected. Rachel was a fantastic collaborator, listening to our issues with the current treatment and proposing a solution I hadn't considered. In the end, we got a product which we liked much better than what we'd imagined. The room looks wonderful, and the blinds are a great fit with the look and feel of the room and how we use the space. After ordering, Victoria kept in touch with me to let me know the status of my custom order, and scheduled installation as soon as the product was available. The installation was quick, professional, and clean. I was given a thorough demonstration of how to use and maintain the new blinds (even though they are very intuitive to operate, I appreciated the attention to detail!). I'll definitely do business with this company again!
Description of Work: Two large windows in my living room required replacement. They were older (12+ years) woven wood blinds and the cord mechanism had broken. I was looking for an update and a better quality treatment.

[Member Name Removed], thank you. It was a pleasure to work with you. I was very excited that your shades arrived just as the warmer temperatures did and you'll really be able to enjoy the sunshine + some new privacy. Thanks again for choosing us.

The whole process was quick and efficient. I met with the designer a couple of days after I called. Other places I called were not available until three weeks later. The designer/consultant knows their product (Hunter Douglas) and was good with making the selection process flow smoothly. It took around 3 weeks to get the blinds installed after we met with the designer. They kept us updated on the status of the order. We love our blinds and would use their services again.

Beyond Shades was great, very prompt with coming to give us a quote, and then measure and, once the shades were delivered (to them), to have them installed. I would definitely recommend them.

Fabulous! From the sales rep to the installers, my experience was A+. They all showed up on time and completed their work efficiently. I did not do a lot of price comparison, but I wanted Hunter Douglas due to the quality. I was very pleased with the products and the installation was totally smooth. Highly recommend this company!

I can't say enough great things about Rachel Gregerson and her team at Beyond Shades!!! From start to finish the service was excellent and Rachel provided top quality custom window treatments designed specifically for me. This is not a big box store experience, this is one on one attention to detail and elegantly installed works of art! Thank God I found Beyond Shades! They truly do deliver an amazing product in a personable, professional manner! Thanks Rachel! You won't find any custom window treatment business better!

In each case Beyond Shades helped to guide the selection, managed the purchase and performed the install as promised - in fact, above and beyond what was promised. Each situation required solving unique site conditions. Beyond Shades worked to include my husband in the selections for our home, and at my daughter's home also to engage my son's-law in the selection process. I eagerly refer friends and can recommend Beyond Shades without reservation
Description of Work: I have purchased window treatments for my house (2 rooms including nearly 20 linear feet of windows) , cottage ( 2 windows) and also for my daughter's house (7 windows in 2 rooms). For our most recent project we wanted shades for privacy and to tone down intense light in our south facing sun room. We did not want vertical shades and wanted the window treatment to almost disappear when the shades were totally open. These motorized shades have been on 2 large sliding doors and 2 hinged doors for about 2 months and I love them.

Great, everything progressed just as it was explained. The shutters are beautiful and the room looks awesome!! The designer was extremely helpful and showed us exactly what the finished product would look like upon completion and she guided us through the selection process. I will use Beyond Shades again and again.

The measurements were professionally done. The installation was timely and completed with great attention to detail.
Description of Work: I needed new window treatments, I have been in my home for several years and it was time for change. Beyond Shades and the service rendered, exceeded my expectations in a major way. The in-home consultation was very helpful. I wanted a change that would be traditional, yet modern and match my current decor. Rachel, really listened to me and provided me with options that addressed my needs. I chose a pattern and color that completely gave my living room a more modern and sophisticated look. I wasn't blown away by the results-- Outstanding!!

Rachel was very thorough and had some great ideas. She totally talked me into adding the powered shades with remote control and app controller. Love them! So glad she talked me into it! The installer was very knowledgeable and talented even 18ft in the air. Beyond shades is a true quality hunter Douglas dealer. I will be using them for more projects
