Mr. Rollins was able to do the job within a week of my contacting him . Several years ago, I had vertical blinds installed and the head rail never worked. properly. The blinds would not open or close in the way that they should. I contacted the company that initially put up the blinds countless times about the problem.. They even installed a new head rail (at my expense) that still did not solve the problem. During my last attempt to con tact the company they had gone out of business. Nevertheless, Mr Rollins ordered and installed a new head rail which works flawlessly..He knew what he was doing. Mildred Strong
Description of Work: Installed head rail for vertical blinds.

I've used this company with great success for a number of years. The owner always has been able to accommodate my schedule on short notice and does an excellent job of cleaning the blinds. So much easier than trying to wash and dry them myself. I have Nick's Window Cleaning Service come and clean my windows during the short period of time that the blinds are out of the house.
Description of Work: A-1 Shade came and took down my mini blinds on 6/21/2011, took them to their facility and cleaned them and then returned and rehung them on 6/22/2011.

I purchased my blinds from A-1 Shade Company 22 years ago and have had A-1 clean them every few years since that time. If any repairs to the tapes need to be made, those are completed, also. The owner picks them up at a time that meets my needs and returns them in 1-2 days looking like new again! I am totally happy with their products, their services, and their prices.
Description of Work: I had my blinds picked up and cleaned. These are full-size venetian blinds purchased from A-1 Shade Co 22 years ago.

Tom Rollings was the only person I dealt with and the whole process was very smooth. He showed up to measure and provide estimates right on time and the window coverings were ready for installation within the time period he promised. Installation was also done promptly and when promised. Price was quite competitive. I would not hesitate to call Tom again.
Description of Work: Provided mini-blinds and shades for 5 windows in 2 rooms.

Tom Rollings asked me to describe the problems. He listened and then explained to me how to fix them myself: No charge! I was pleased and grateful!
Description of Work: The vertical blinds in my house were not working well and I called this company, after finding it on Angie's List, to request service.

I WAS HAPPY ANGIE'S LIST HELPED ME FIND COMPANIES THAT DID BLIND REPAIRS. MOST ONLY REPAIR MODERN BLINDS AND RECOMMENDED I REPLACE THEM. TWO OTHER COMPANIES HAD HIGHER PRICES AND WERE LESS CONFIDENT OVER THE PHONE. A-1 SHADE DID THE REPAIR SO THE BLINDS STILL LOOK AUTHENTIC AND FIT THE ERA OF THE HOUSE. HIS PRICE AND TURN-AROUND (2 DAYS) IS UNBEATABLE!
Description of Work: REPAIRED 1940'S ERA WOOD BLINDS. REPLACED THE FABRIC TAPE AND INSTALLED NEW CHORDS ON 4 UNITS ($25 EACH). I DELIVERED THE BLINDS TO THE SHOP, SO THERE WAS NO PICK-UP CHARGE INCLUDED.
