About us

After 14 years of working with big box retailers and a few franchised custom window blind companies I've noticed a trend with each of them.. The big box retailers sell less custom blinds each year because their overhead and sales associate mistakes are very high..The sales staff in the window covering departments of most big box retailers almost never get any formal training on how to install or measure blinds.. They get most of that knowledge second hand with usually zero experience on installs and measures..Many of your franchised local retailers that you see with colorful ads on billboards and the side of work vans also have very little or no experience with installs.. They depend on an experience pro to install a poorly measured product. Sometimes it can be done. Often times it cannot..if a measure error was made.. Working with large retailers for an installer means that you get exposed to 100's of variations of window moldings and dozens of products---Nothing can take the place of that..Especially when many franchised window blind businesses have been bought & sold during the current housing crises....And that means new inexperienced installers have entered the market also plus sales staff that are learning as well.. Why not go with a company with an experienced installer coupled with an experienced sales rep? The sales rep that I have provides name brand products for LESS than cheaper made generic brand custom blinds that can be purchased online..When you buy blinds online..Most of the time they will not provide information on what company is manufacturing their products..That can be a very bad thing.. If you can buy a top manufacturer of custom blinds for less than online products then you have a great deal!! Dozens of customers from big box retailers in previous years wanted me to install blinds they bought online for much cheaper than big box retailers.. I can do a side by side comparison of online product pricing and beat their prices with well known manufacturers with great warranties... Where else will you get both Sales & Install from the same person? I have documentation of each year ive been in business. Please feel free to ask me about it.

He is very meticulous, and takes his own time with the measurements and installations. He spent significant amount of time just on the measurements on the initial survey even before we had awarded him the project. He had to order the cellular shades to fit the custom casement windows. He had to do the job in piecemeals, since there was no way to finish the installation in a day. We installed the electronic battery operated cell shades in our living room, and top down and bottom up/ open close/ cell shades in the rest of the home. We have a curved wall in the living area where he installed the electronic windows. The windows in this section extend nearly from the floor to the ceiling. This added complexity to the task. He took care of a wrong colored cell shade dispatch from the company. He completed the project in steps; and had spent about 2 or 3 days completing the project. We were very happy with the outcome in the end. I have to add, that 2 years later which in now - August 2015, when one of the electronic operators on the cellular shades became dysfunctional, he readily came in and replaced the operator, which was covered under warranty from the company. We have done several projects in our home. I can say with confidence, that Frank Fowler did the job to our satisfaction; and he stands behind his work. There was peace of mind - which I value the most. We could not ask for more. I would readily use him for any projects that he would be willing to do in my home, any day.
Description of Work: He installed Hunter Douglas brand Cellular shades on 109 full size casement windows in our home in Ballantyne. Many of our casement windows are paired in a wood based frame. We have a 6400 square feet home, and the home is studded with windows. We interviewed about 4 to 5 companies in this business. Frank Fowler, the owner, was not only the most cost effective, but also was able to provide us with a great top of the line product in the category of double cell cellular shades.
