Description of Work: Just for everyone's information. I had used this company before and was very happy with them. However, when I called last week to have my drapes cleaned, the lady who answered the phone said that they are no longer doing residential work. So, I am in the process of calling other places.
He was very pleasant, punctual and very careful. When coming into the house, he even took his shoes off. I would recommend him to everyone.
Description of Work: I had five mini blinds and four pair of drapes cleaned. He came to the house and took down the drapes and mini blinds. He took them to the store and brought them back the next day. He even put them back up for me. The blinds are very clean the drapes look brand new.

It went perfectly. Tom returned my calls promptly. He came when he said he would and brought the drapes or blinds back and they were all cleaned very nicely.
Description of Work: Tom cleaned three kitchen blinds, taking them down in the morning and putting them back up in the evening. He has cleaned my living room drapes at least twice taking them down in the morning and coming back the same day to rehang them. I am very happy with his service and his work.

Tom James promptly returned my call requesting dining room window treatment cleaning, which he picked up from my house the next day. The window treatment consists of sheers and fabric panels which he cleaned, and returned and rehung the following day. The sheers and panels are on three separate rods which had been removed so the room could be painted, and Tom replaced the rods and then was meticulous about rehanging the fabrics in perfect alignment. All of the material was beautifully cleaned and did not shrink. Tom was very pleasant and professional. I thought the price was exceptional, especially considering the amount of work that was required.
Description of Work: Cleaned and rehung dining room window treatment.

Tom was prompt, courteous, and professional in his work. Turn-around time was short. The price was reasonable. The blinds, sheers, drapes, valences all look great. We have used his services before, so this was a repeat call.
Description of Work: All blinds, sheers, drapes, and valences throughout our home were removed, cleaned, repaired where needed, returned and rehung. Some blinds had been broken -- latch mechanisms damaged, cord broken. These were repaired in addition to being cleaned.

TIM RETURNED OUR PHONE CALL IN 1 DAY. BECAUSE OF PREVIOUS ANGIE'S LIST REPORTS I READ ONLINE I KNEW WHAT TO EXPECT & WASN'T SURPRISED ABOUT PICKING UP DRAPES AT THE BUSINESS NEXT DOOR. TOM WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO MEET US SO WE COULD GIVE HIM THE BLINDS, SINCE WE'RE FROM NEWARK. HE WAS MOST PLEASANT. DRAPES & BLINDS WERE CLEAN & DID NOT SHRINK.
TOM JAMES IS A VERY NICE PERSON TO WORK WITH. MY LIVING ROOM WINDOW IS QUITE LARGE SO THE DRAPES ARE VERY WIDE. I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS QUITE REASONABLE FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF COMING TO MY HOME, TAKING THEM DOWN AND PUTTING THEM BACK UP, NICELY CLEANED, ALL IN THE SAME DAY.
Description of Work: TOM CAME TO MY HOME AND TOOK DOWN MY LIVING ROOM DRAPES FOR CLEANING. HE CLEANED, BROUGHT THEM BACK THE SAME DAY AND REHUNG THEM FOR ME. HE ALSO REPAIRED A DRAPERY ROD IN ANOTHER ROOM THAT WOULDN'T ALLOW THE CURTAIN TO CLOSE PROPERLY AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME.

I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE SERVICE PROVIDED BY MR. JAMES. I HAD TRIED MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO CLEAN THE BLINDS MYSELF AND WAS UNABLE TO GET THEM CLEAN. HAVING SOMEONE ELSE TAKE THEM DOWN AND REHANG THEM WAS WONDERFUL. THEY CAME BACK SO CLEAN. I WAS AMAZED.
Description of Work: MR. JAMES CAME OUT IN THE MORNING, REMOVED 11 LARGE BLINDS, TOOK THEM TO BE ULTRA SONICALLY CLEANED, RESTRUNG ONE, AND RETURNED AND REHUNG ALL OF THE BLINDS THE SAME DAY.

THIS WAS A VERY INTERESTING EXPERIENCE FOR ME. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CALL MR. JAMES ON THE PHONE WITH NO SUCCESS, I OPTED TO REMOVE THE DRAPES MYSELF AND DRIVE THEM OVER TO HIS BUSINESS (CONFIDENT THAT HE MUST BE GOOD, AS ANGIE'S LIST MEMBERS HAD INDICATED.) FINDING THE STORE WAS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE AND IF IT HAD NOT BEEN FOR A NEIGHBORING BUSINESS TAKING PITY ON MY CONFUSION, I WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN WHAT TO DO. APPARENTLY THE NEIGHBOR ROUTINELY COLLECTS DRAPES, BLINDS, AND PAYMENTS FOR MR. JAMES. AT ANY RATE, I LEFT THE DRAPES AND CONTINUED TO CALL THE BUSINESS TO CONFIRM THAT THEY WERE IN PROCESS. AT THIS POINT, I DID SPEAK DIRECTLY WITH MR. JAMES, WHO PROVED TO BE A VERY NICE MAN WHO CLEARLY NEEDS SOME CLERICAL SUPPORT! HE DROVE THE CLEANED DRAPES TO MY HOME IN A TIMELY FASHION. I DO NOT FEEL I CAN TRULY COMMENT ON THE PRICE, AS THIS WAS THE FIRST EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD DRY CLEANING DRAPES. THE OLD FABRIC SURVIVED THE PROCESS WELL AND LOOK GOOD.
Description of Work: CLEANED 4 PANELS OF DRAPERIES FOR 2 LARGE WINDOWS, PLUS VALENCES. VERY OLD FABRIC.

THEY WERE SO NICE! THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL WITH EVERYTHING THEY DID. THEY SAID THEY WOULDN''T SHRINK MY DRAPES, AND THEY DIDN''T. AFTER THEY PUT EVERYTHING BACK UP AT THE WINDOWS, IT LOOKED LIKE THEY HAD NEVER BEEN THERE--EXCEPT EVERYTHING WAS CLEANER, OF COURSE. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE.
Description of Work: AFTER GIVING ME AN ESTIMATE OVER THE PHONE, MR. JAMES CAME TO MY HOUSE AND TOOK DOWN THE DRAPERIES AND MINI-BLINDS. HE TOLD ME WHEN THEY''D BE BACK (2 DAYS LATER). THEY RETURNED 2 DAYS LATER AND PUT EVERYTHING BACK UP.
