They have installed all the shades and window coverings in our home and have treated our family with kindness and respect, all while being reasonably priced.

Whenever we need anything, whether big or small, they take it on and get the job done right the first time. What more can you ask for?

I cannot say enough great things about SB Screen and Shade!…read more I hired Santa Barbara Screen and Shade to install a double french screen door and was extremely pleased with my experience from start to finish. Kim was very thorough in asking questions about the application and offered several options with a nice selection while guiding me to select the perfect solution. The unit arrived on time and Jason came to install the door. He was extremely friendly, professional, explained to me how he was going to install it, verified some areas before installing and the whole job was done quickly, efficiently and very cleanly. It was a pleasure working with them and I highly recommend them to my friends and family

We bought some blinds from the Ventura store a few years ago and had a problem with one and need to have it replaced. They have an amazing "No Questions Asked" replacement policy (within 5 years) and they will replace it for free (you pay installation). It is an incredible deal. I dealt with Mari in the SB office and she is amazing! She got back to me right away, figured out that I should have the one next to the original blind replaced as well (for the same price) and kept me up to date on shipping speed etc. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. I would buy from them again in a heartbeat!

As the office manager, i thought I had exhausted all the affordable options to cool our upstairs…read moreworkspace. Initially I was pricing out A/C splits and portable ACs ( which need to vent heat) and evaporative coolers which need open windows. None of these were good fits for the office. I then found 805 Shutters and Mike gave me confidence that a shade cover will help modify the temperature. The landlord and I were leaning towards selecting the honeycomb shades but opted to try the shutter shades that were recommended as they can withstand the heat better, hence last longer. Mike and his team member came out and installed the shutters very efficiently; and we were finally able to enjoy the space! Wish I found 805Shutters sooner so we could have utilized the upstairs as a great workspace For the past 3 years. Currently, the office staff are working comfortably and appreciate that the office space has been 'expanded' to accommodate more staff. -Jina / Office Mgr

I'm not sure why they call it 3 Day Blinds as it took almost two weeks for the blinds to be ready for the installation appointment, but they were worth the wait. They look better than I expected, both window blinds and a set of verticals for a slider. The installer guy was super nice and helpful (and fast!). Easy experience. Price seemed reasonable. I would recommend.

We paid a 50% downpayment at that time. The scheduled installment day came and went with no contact from 3 Day Blinds. Our follow-ups received brief, superficial responses and then no responses. I spent a LOT of time trying to talk to a human (which was difficult) to figure this out, and eventually (a week after the promised installation date) talked to someone who promised that a manager would call back within 48 hours. No one called. So I called again and was told that the order's due date was in 2 1/2 months!! So it went from six days to 2.5 months, and I only found this out by spending hours trying to get information. So frustrating, and so unprofessional. The only positive was that they agreed to cancel the order (after completely messing it up) and the refund went through relatively quickly.

Faitell Attractions, opened during the pandemic, is a REVELATION…read more The only reason I stumbled across the store was my passion for coconut frozen yogurt, which Yogurtland currently sells (along with pistachio). Parking in a garage downtown for a frozen yogurt irks me so I rarely go. I passed this consignment and the moment I entered, my eyes grew big. It's mostly furniture---a mix of mid-century modern and other classic pieces--but also one of the best designer resales I've seen in the back. Every bench, piece of art, chair gorgeous. You just have to go in to appreciate the extraordinary taste of Lisa Faitell, who moved to SB from Westchester County (a tiny town my dear friend lives and I just spent three nights). It's a mother-daughter operation, which I love. They also do custom window treatments and you can arrange for delivery. In the hour I spent, a woman in Laurel Canyon bought a large bright aqua sectional couch. I love absolutely everything. Note: the clothing runs small. Best if you are a size 2, 4, or 6. I love that a New Yorker opened this store--in a pandemic no less. New Yorkers have grit and chutzpah, always rising to the challenge in the most fraught conditions. I bought a dress (48 dollars) and an incredible long sweater-jacket with pattern (50). Wearing the dress to the Granada Saturday, my first time since 2014 before I moved to the city. If you're downtown, you must go in. It's impossible not to come away with a treasure. I went in to look for plant stands and found an outdoor set for 50 they only sell as a pair. I might have to go get it, though I really only need one.

I had no idea that they were based in SB. I'm very impressed with the high quality samples they provide. The measuring guy and their on site designer came out for the initial consult. I had no idea that my windows were not symmetrical until they informed me. They were very careful with measurements. It took the measuring guy a very long time to measure each window. Cons: very expensive. For my 46" window, each shade cost $1,000. For 4 windows...well, you do the math. This is after using their discount code. They took the time to measure my other windows in the space, but lost the measurements in the system, then, told me they didn't measure, then ghosted me. I didn't get a chance to order all the shades I needed. They required full payment up front, but then, they revealed that they didn't have the product, and only told me this after I coughed up the cash; so the product took a much longer time to order and install, leaving me nervous, wondering if I would ever get my blinds. I felt that I was their financial float and was forced to pay for a product before I even knew if it was legit. Overall, it was worth the frustrations, the long wait, and the miscommunications, because in the end, I love my unique, high end shades. I want to possibly use this company for other spaces in the home, after I complete the remodel, however, this time, I'll be prepared and will know what to expect.

However, when I had several more to have done, and it was a much bigger job, I asked about how much of a deposit I'd have to put down.

I ended up calling other companies and found a company that asked for a 50percent deposit instead of paying the entire price up front.

Why should you hire them? 1. Exemplary installations, Efficient and Knowledgeable. 2. Come with the right Tools. Use laser levels and quality tools...always a good sign. 3. Friendly professional attitude 4. They are investing in their new community (of 2+ years) and soon you will see them on State Street! Thus, helping to revitalize our community both in their work and their offices. 5. Experts in outdoor awnings but also super fast and efficient with our indoor panels. Small job but they gave us the same professionalism and attention. 6. They can also help you with hemming your drapes and are a favorite installer by some local talented designers, for a good reason.
