I had a retractable awning installed by NW Natural Lighting. Everything went incredibly well. While…read morewaiting for my awning to be ready, I needed to have an electrician come and install an outdoor outlet in preparation. The day of install, two nice guys were here from 8:30am to 3-ish and the job is complete. The awning is exactly what I wanted aesthetics wise, and is super simple to operate. I got a full cassette with a wind sensor. Now I look forward to using my deck much more. I chose NW Natural Lighting based upon their knowledge, their communication, a nicely detailed estimate, no hard sell or upsell to something unnecessary, and everyone I had contact with at the company was helpful, nice and courteous. The price was very reasonable for a good product.

NW Natural Lighting had installed ceramic frit glass rail before (usually on commercial projects) but for us were able to source Guardian Glass Bird 1st UV for the first time. Fair warning, the cost in money and time to source this glass is pretty dissuasive, but having not been an early adopter for any earth-friendly technologies in the past I decided this could be my one thing. NW Natural Lighting did a great job sourcing and installing the glass, and aside from cost and lead time, the product is absolutely incredible - the sample they got for their showroom really doesn't do it justice. Except when it fogs up at night and the moisture evaporates at different rates in the morning, none of us humans can see it at all. So far not a single bird strike, and we get to enjoy a stunning view. Very well done.

Due to the very high ceiling, many contractors refused to work as they found the job to be too complicated. However Aysel not just accepted that project, but came up with innovate solutions and showed great customer empathy while understanding our personalized needs of the project. I interacted with many companies before awarding the project and Aysel was class apart in her professionalism and creativity. Her contractor (Serhat) was also extremely professional, skillful and courteous and it was a great experience working with both of them. Aysel sourced the parts from Europe. In one of the parts, there were some mechanical issues, and Aysel promptly offered full refund. Overall, I am highly impressed with Aysel's customer service, professionalism and creativity and definitely recommend her to others for projects related to home improvements.

And it was great that they weren't pushy in any way. They listened to what I was trying to do with my overly large window and shared several different recommendations.

I've been telling all my friends about how great the experience has been.

Their quote came in significantly higher than any other companies I spoke with, but nothing about the proposal made me feel it was worth that kind of premium...Once I started comparing options side by side, Wessco just did not seem competitive in terms of value, functionality, or overall solution. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind paying more for quality when the difference is obvious. In this case though, the pricing felt hard to justify, especially when other vendors were offering stronger smart-home integration and more compelling options and discounts overall. The interaction itself was not terrible, but the quote made the decision easy. I moved on quickly and focused on companies that offered a better balance of cost and value. Definitely get multiple quotes before making a decision, because the pricing differences between companies can be pretty eye opening.

When preparing to purchase black out shades for the main bedroom, I had in-home consultations with three local companies. Anchor Blinds was the third consultation I received. The contrast in professionalism, knowledge level and communication was striking between Anchor Blinds and the two prior companies. I love my new black out HoneyComb shades--made by Hunter Douglass and come with a seven year warranty. Should I have a problem, they will be serviced locally thru Anchor Blinds-- which is comforting. A shout out to Taylor Vo (consultant) and Wyman (installer) for the wonderful service!

If you browse around and look at their more recent reviews you will find a concerning trend that I…read morecan 100% attest to. It is simply impossible to get a response from this business no matter how you try to reach out. While we had a few different quotes from other businesses we could have gone with, following Daniel's in-person visit we figured we'd give Seattle Custom Blinds. Big. Mistake. From then on things quickly went downhill. It took several months before our simple project was finally completed and nearly 100 emails until I finally had my blinds installed. And that's not to mention the several incorrectly placed orders that continuously delayed things. We gave them as much slack as humanly possible the entire time but they took advantage of that and every day that went by it seemed like they were actively trying to find new ways to waste my time. When it was all said and done, I ended up being the one having to install the smart integration myself since Seattle Custom Blinds apparently couldn't quite figure out how to order the necessary parts (I had paid for) from whoever their supplier was. Mind you... them offering that as part of the package was one of the reasons why I chose to give them the business. It has been a few months since we FINALLY got our blinds installed but I'm leaving this review now because the remote that came with them broke and I wanted to grab a new one so I have been trying to get in touch with them and what do you know? Zero response! Our blinds had a lot of minor issues following the installation and I honestly didn't even bother trying to get a response from Daniel since I am convinced they will never respond to former customer emails after our experience with them. Seriously... there are many other blind installers in our area. Most are very professional. The majority will carry the exact same product or better. They will likely not mess up your order 100 times for no apparent reason. And I guarantee they will all be more responsive and easy to work with. So do yourself a favor and go with any other option out there.

Customers should thoroughly check deliverables and be prepared for a rocky experience. Even after 9 months of back and forth, replacements and multiple re-installations not all of our issues are fixed yet. Customer service at the University Village location and quality control by Shade Store are a nightmare. We remodeled a mid-century home designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright looking for a well designed, high quality product. Jason Mathews at the University Village Shade Store in Seattle was assigned to work with us. We spent close to $20K on curtains and hardware expecting quality deliverables and excellent service. However curtains and hardware had to be reinstalled despite correct measurements multiple times due to factory errors and incorrect orders by Jason Mathews. Even today despite our complaints there are curtains patched together out of multiple panels indicating a lack of good workmanship and factory quality control. Other larger panels are delivered as a single piece just to note. Overall from order to installation it took us over 9 month to get close to completion. We had to contact the store, i.e. Jason often multiple times to point out discrepancies, issues and ask for replacements. We would like to mention that the installation crews are excellent and very helpful in pointing out deficiencies and errors. Unfortunately this doesn't make the process less painful. We are still waiting for our last issue to be addressed but have low confidence in customer service and their commitment to follow up.
