Called "Love is Blinds" to request a quote for blinds for our livingroom window. When he heard that we were only talking about one window, he said he would come out to measure it. He asked my wife to measure the window instead and said he'd call us back with a price. My wife measured the window and left the details on his voicemail. He never called back. Our $600 went to another company that we were very happy with.

Response from LOVE IS BLINDS
This member’s comments are far from factual and further confirmation why I choose not to do business with them. They represent the 1% of the public who are generally unhappy and impossible to satisfy (even when I “politely” decline to do business with them). My perfect A+ rating from scores of other members speaks for its self.

Andy installed amazing shutters for our oversized kitchen window and installed blinds for our oversized sliding glass window. His services were outstanding. His ability to quickly put up these window treatments is nothing short of incredible. His flexibility in scheduling was much appreciated. He worked around our busy family schedule. Better yet, when we had a minor issue with our window blinds, Andy had them replaced for free. This is our 2nd time working with Andy and we look forward to using him again.

Andy was great to work with. He listened to what we wanted so we could select the blinds that met our needs. The installation went smoothly. But where working with Andy really paid off was the service after the sale. This October, almost a year after the initial installation, the motorized blind no longer lifted to the level it should. I read the manual and tried to reset it, but nothing I did fixed the problem. I called Andy for help. Andy researched the problem with the manufacturer and set up a service call. The result is the motor was replaced free of charge which corrected the problem. I trust Andy to provide a quality product and stand behind it.
Description of Work: Blinds were installed in multiple rooms. A motorized blind was installed in our family room. We have a walk out deck and the walkout consists of three very large windows on the south side of the house. The afternoon sun heats up the windows so that you can not touch them because they get so hot. The heat from the windows radiates into the room, making it uncomfortably warm. The blinds are room darkening insulated blinds. The blinds have made a significant difference in insulating the room from the outdoor temperatures.

Very responsive on the phone, and came out right away. Measured all 8 windows, showed samples of products. We picked out what we liked, paid 1/2 down and he placed the order. Promised 3 to 4 weeks, he got them early and installed them in a little over an hour. Love The ease of removing the valances for cleaning. He worked with our busy schedule and came in the evening, and early morning as requested.

They were very patient in removing and installing the blinds again. They were very professional and scheduling an appointment was easy. They were reasonably priced and were very particular about their job. They cleaned the place well and did a good job. I liked their services and will use the same in future.

An onsite estimate was provided within a few days of calling. Options were bid for size of blinds. After placing the order they arrived when expected and installation was scheduled within 2 days. The installation of blinds in 7 rooms was completed within about 30 minutes. They look great! The entire process was professional, helpful and timely as promised. I would definitely use them for future window treatments.

Great service start to finish. I was even given a rebate form for part of my order that was not expected.
Description of Work: Window treatments for my new home. First came to review and provide a detailed estimate of the services offered as well as a mulitute of samples to choose from. Andy is great, he has years of experience and was very helpful to me in the selection process of fabric and types of treatments that would serve my lifestyle best. Delivery was timely and installation was effortless on my part. Andy did it all. Would highly recommend using ANDY for all your window treatments.

Andy arrived with sample books. I described what I thought I wanted, and he steered me in the right direction. I have trouble reaching the shade cord over the kitchen counter. Andy suggested remote control; my husband seconded that right away. Andy added up what I ordered, measured the windows, and somehow the conversation steered toward three shades I had ordered from a store front company a couple years ago, for my home office. The wider one in that room worked, but not as well as the other two. He agreed. He took it down and said he'd take it wherever shades go and return with it in a few days. That shade was returned before my new ones were in. Andy reinstalled it, and still didn't like the way it worked. He said his distributor would come by to work on it here. A very quiet guy arrived a few days later, looked it over, laid it out on the floor, took it apart, fixed it, reassembled it, rehung it, and it's perfect! When my new shades arrived, Andy brought them in, removed the original shades, took away the ones I didn't want to save for parts, and installed the new ones. They looked great, but due to new safety regulations on how the cord has to be attached to the frame, the wider ones weren't as easy to raise and lower as I would have liked. New regulations don't take into consideration that furniture gets in the way, and the wider the window, the more pulls it takes while I'm awkwardly reaching over furniture to reach the darn cord that doesn't budge from the frame. Even when I unscrewed them from the frame and bypassed the safety mechanism (no small children here), I still had trouble. The remote control on the kitchen one, however, was a dream! I know it sounds stupid, or like a toy no one really needs, but until you try one of these on very wide shades (my whole south wall is windows), you have no idea! So I asked about changing all the wide shades over to remote control. Andy said he'd have to send them back to the factory, but as luck would have it, I was now in the time frame for a manufacturer-offered rebate on installing remote control systems. So three weeks later, my shades are reinstalled, I don't have to climb over and around furniture, and there are no cords for kids/pets to get tangled in. Andy explained the remotes and options, and programmed them the way I wanted. I have three, one for each "room" of the open floor plan, and each one works all of the shades that have remotes. I didn't add remote control to the narrower shades. Andy was always on time, often early. I would not hesitate to use him again; he's sort of like the brother you like to have around. In fact, I am going to email him to keep me informed of future specials.
Description of Work: Replaced seven 19-year-old builder-quality shades with updated, energy efficient, remote-controlled shades.

Overall, the sale and installation went very well....in fact everything was ahead of schedule. When one of the valences did not come with the rest of the materials, he promptly had it delivered to my house in a few days. Definitely A+ in service and attitude.
Description of Work: Andy sold and installed window blinds in our family room and in some bedrooms. He was professional, prompt and an honest service provider. He listened to my ideas, made suggestions but was never pushy. I would certainly use him again without hesitation.

Andy is both professional and personable. He believes in a satisfied customer. Sometimes he gets a little too busy for a one man operation but he always strives to make things right. I have used him twice in the past year. I am very satisfied and will use him again. Even more importantly, I would not hesitate to refer him to family and friends.
Description of Work: Andy installed shades in my living room and family room earlier in the year and then most recently in my sunroom in September 2010. I love my shades because there are no strings,bars or pulleys involved. They pull down and retract by hand. I obtained three biods. Love IS Blinds was the most reasonable in terms of price and quality.

The owner, Andy, was very professional, friendly,courteous and responsive to the customer requests. He offered lower priced items as well as the more expensive blinds. Since I couldn't make up my mind immediately, he had me choose 4 samples that I liked and he ordered those from the manufacturer to be mailed directly to me within 5 working days. His suggestions were helpful and appreciated although he left the final decision with me. Compared to another company that I had used previously for smaller windows, I thought his price was a better value.

From start to finish - the process was excellent. The price we paid was approximately 1/3 cheaper than two direct competitors for the EXACT same product! No kidding. Andy (owner/operator) was good as gold. Great counsel, very patient and listened to our needs. Product is fantastic - install was flawless. A+++.

Description of Work: Andy installed solar shades in the upper windows of our two-story great room. We were very pleased with his professionalism during the entire process... from choosing the perfect shades to having them installed. He also installed plantation shutters in our front picture window. They look beautiful! We believe that he has the best prices for his products and will use him again if we have any other window covering needs.

Andy is very professional and knows his products thoroughly. He was able to explain to me pros and cons of each type of blinds, didn't try to sell me what I didn't need, and answered all questions completely and to my satisfaction. He was punctual and extremely reasonable in his pricing. He is also a very easy person to work with and very nice man. He had previously sold me some blinds for my master bath, which I was very happy with. I called him again to replace the blinds in the rest of the house. I ended up choosing faux wood Hunter Douglas blinds throughout in several different shades. I am extremely happy with the finished product- it has made a huge difference in the overall look of my home. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone.
