We love Andy and the Shade Service. They always do a great job! They can clean shade as well as fix motors etc.

No need to look any further. You tried to rest now try the BEST. incredible service, fair prices and such a pleasant helpful group. Picked up my shade one day and back the next. You can't ask for better than that. read more

I have Hunter Douglas blinds, and after several years, some of the motors quit working. I asked a person who works in the industry for a recommendation. He recommended Shade Service and I am glad he did. My contact at Shade Service was Cindy, who always quickly responded to my emails. The installer was Pat, who was very professional and knowledgeable. If I need more work done, these are the people I want to work with. read more

Very happy with the service. The original quote that I received did not include the fee for cleaning, only travel service for pick up and delivery, plus the repair fees, but I'm happy with the great job they did in cleaning the Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades which were full of dust and some dead insects. The installation person was very professional and very careful that the installation was perfect. read more

These guys did great work! They repaired a very large, custom roller shade that came with our new home and was broken in two different ways. Not only does it now work beautifully, but they charged much less than another place in SF I talked to (where they weren't even sure they could fix it). They were helpful, friendly and responsive. Highly recommend them for shade repairs. read more

yesterday, Jay from Shade Service came out since one of my Hunter Douglas motorized shades for a skylight wasn't working. He explained that the Battery wand needed charging and showed me how to remove it and charge it. Today, Oscar followed up to let me know that the charger had been ordered and they would let me know the specific date soon. The company that originally installed it had not done any of that! Shade Service also ordered a charger for me since I didn't have one. The original company only had an appointment 2 weeks out. Shade Service gave an appointment within2 days. I would highly recommend Shade Service and I would use them again. read more

Repair technician was highly skilled and very pleasant. He repaired some old HunterDouglas honeycomb blinds.

Andy and his team seem like they are ALWAYS there when we need them and flexible when expected deliveries change. Shade Service is professional, punctual, affordable, and their service isn't just great-it looks wonderful too! :) Andy and his team make a conscious effort to go above and beyond without request. Shade Service business is what you want for the California bay! read more

Cindy was extremely helpful in finding the right color, and Batka & Esoo installed efficiently they were on time clean quick professional made the whole thing very easy. Highly recommend! read more

Recently, Shade Service company cleaned our Hunter Douglas shades and blinds with care and delicacy and made them look like new. Their capable and professional technicians, Pat and Batka, handled our shades and blinds very carefully during the process of their removal and reinstallation . Their nice support staff, Nomika, Oscar, Amina, and Cindy were very helpful and always available to answer our questions on the phone. Their general manager, Mr. Andy Dovchin, himself made sure that the services were done properly. We trust this company 100% and highly recommend them. This is a five star company for sure! read more

Found them on Thumbtack. They came out quickly to reinstall the blinds in our living room. So far their work is holding up! Their communication has been great all around and the project was billed at the same rate we were quoted. Would definitely use them again! read more

Quick response and great communication. Repaired our Hunter Douglas shades quickly. Technicians were courteous and efficient.

Andy has helped me with more than one job. He's very thorough with a smile and highly approachable with any problem to solve and sincere in his interest to please. I would highly recommend his services, not only as an interior designer, but as a home owner or commercial property manager. read more

Wonderful first-time experience! I had a great experience with the Shade Service. Despite my San Francisco location in South Beach, they were very punctual and professional. Their pricing is very reasonable, and I truly appreciated the smooth process. I'll definitely be calling them again when my shades need servicing! read more

Shade Service re-strung a 6' wide shade in several days, doing a great job at a good price. It saved me several hours of struggling to do it myself. Conveniently located just off the highway with easy street parking in front. read more

I requested repair service. Got an email signed by Cindy. Made an appointment for today between 10 and 11. Well it is 11:25 and they have not come or contacted me. *heavy sigh*. If you don't want the business why do you book? I could have gotten someone else without needlessly having blinds stuck at 2 feet open. I was contacted "Hi Kate, I truly apologize but I was out of the office for a few days due to my child's health. I wasn't aware our appointment was confirmed so we never put it on our schedule. I can send a technician out tomorrow around 11-12. Would this work for you? Please let us know we would like to make it up for you. Thank you so much! Cindy" So life happens. To me when you give a date and time and the customer says "yes" that is an appointment. I also asked a question. I don't think asking a question negates the "yes". But you be the judge. I hired someone else. read more

They installed blinds I had ordered online. They didn't just come and install the blinds they gave me tips on how to use them, and which kinds will break if not used correctly over time. Also very accommodating and super professional. Don't use a handyman, I installed a few previously, blind installation is more detailed than you would think and these guys knew the right steps. Also good price! read more

My second time visiting Shade Service. I enjoyed the personalized responses to my questions and fair pricing. I had a cellular honeycomb blackout shade with mold/mildew cleaned. They explained that the stains would be improved, but not completely removed since the blackout style limited cleaning options which was understandable. However, when I picked up my blinds a few days later I was blown away by how much better they were. 95% of the stains were gone! Thank you for the excellent results! read more

Yes, this firm did a great job cleaning and restoring my beautiful fabric Roman shade. It works great now and certainly can go on for another 10 years or more. Thank you Shade service for taking such good care of my unusual fabric shade. Very happy with the results. read more

I was struggling without any shade at home and it had become very stressful. Pat and the "Shade Service" team took care of everything from start to finish with such professionalism. The process was seamless, and the result completely transformed my home's atmosphere. I am beyond satisfied with their service and highly recommend SHADE SERVICE. read more

Stumbled upon this local business. Customer service was wonderful, both while dropping off my project and making small adjustments at pick up! Quality was impeccable and pricing was reasonable for my small, somewhat unique project - recreating custom valances, all different sized, and fit was critical, and they delivered! And what impressed me the most was the quick turn around as well! Will definitely go back! read more

We had a crew come out to repair a chain that had jumped off the mechanism and broke. The blinds were 16+ ft tall and in a bay window, not an ideal location to be sure. The first trip out, there was a team of two, halfway through one of the people accidently dropped the heavy metal valence on the other's hand, breaking a branch off a rare plant, crashing into a glass table, the injured person got quite a bit of blood on the floor and ladder, and had to go to the ER. The second time time one person came out, and dropped the valence again, tearing the shade in two places, denting the metal valance as well. He wasn't able to put the valance back. I reached out to SF Blind Cleaners and they've stopped responding to emails. Update : The general manager of the company canceled a second time, last minute (canceling at the time they should have arrived) he was very concerned that they get paid even though at this point they'd done more damage to our home than the cost of the service estimate to begin with. HE accused me of misrepresenting the height of the window (I'd included the height and photos in the initial request) He was more concerned with getting paid then ensuring the work was done properly. read more

The team showed up and got right to work. They understood the problem with the jammed cord. They were able to work a solution to fix the problem and to prevent it from happening again. I will use them again and recommend them to everyone! read more

I needed three window coverings to be fixed, two had their string pulls that were frayed and didn't work properly, and one mechanical pull device wouldn't hold. Shade Service was prompt, professional, and easy to work with. They came out and collected my coverings, and a few days later showed up and installed the repaired items. They let me know how it would be and were accurate and kept in communication the whole time. We had to reschedule a couple times for delivery to juggle calendars and they were easy to work with. I recommend them. read more

I requested a quote online for the cleaning of two of our 74" x 53 1/2" Hunter Douglas Duette shades. The follow up was extraordinarily quick as Amina called within 10 minutes to discuss pricing and time it would take to clean them. After consulting with my husband, I texted Amina back and scheduled a drop off time. Within 5 business days, as quoted, Amina called us to pick up the shades. The cleaning was completed very well and we would definitely use them again. Amina's communication and customer service approach is excellent. The transaction was smooth and easy. read more

This company is great! They can fix anything. Need a new motor or your shades restrung--done. Doesn't matter if your shades are Hunter Douglas or 3 Day Blinds. They are prompt, courteous, and a pleasure to deal with. Will continue to use again and again. read more

I had strings that were cut and the shade couldn't function. The service was fast and pricing was reasonable. Communication was great and they completed the task sooner than expected.

Excellent cleaning of twenty eight Hunter Douglas Silhouette Sheer Shades, all but two of which are 25 years old. They all look beautiful now. Also excellent support from Cindy on purchase and installation of two Hunter Douglas Roller Shades in bedrooms as replacements for two Silhouette Shear Shades whose fabric had deteriorated from 25 years of sun exposure. read more

From my initial call Cindy was very professional and knowledgable with my questions. Everything went off perfectly and smoothly. Her associate went to my rental home, took down my shades from which they had to repair at the shop. She promised they would be back at my house three days later to reinstall what they had fixed and they actually called and asked if the could bring them back earlier! Great communication from Cindy throughout as I will not hesitate to recommend and use this company "Shade Service" again! read more

I requested and promptly received a quote for a shade repair. The cost was less than other quotes so I accepted it. The technician arrived promptly to take down the shade and installed a temporary privacy shade. The technician also was careful to put on disposable shoe covers so our floors stayed clean. When the shade was repaired I was notified and chose a time for the installation. This was done in a timely way and the results are wonderful. The shade works like new. If I needed another shade repaired I would definitely call them again. Highly recommend! read more

SF Blind Cleaners' owner Andy is so careless about serving customers that I do not know how he stays in business. He was a no-show on so many occasions that I have lost count. He showed no respect for our time and appears to assume that we have nothing better to do than to sit and wait on the off chance that he will decide to show up. Only AFTER the appointed time had passed did he bother to let us know he would no be able to come. He re-strung a vertical blind for us and a few days after it was installed, one of the panels fell off. We replaced it and it fell off again. Only after I stood on a stepladder and got up-close with it could I see what was wrong and fix the errant panel. He cleaned a shade for us and a few weeks afterward, it was dirty again. He came out to look at the vertical blind that kept falling off and we showed him how it was dirty again. We told him we didn't blame him -- it did come back from his shop clean -- but that we needed his help to figure out why it was dirty again. Andy was so uninterested in us as customers that he could not even bother to take a look at the shade to tell us what might be going wrong. Really. HE is supposed to be the expert on window coverings and we REALLY needed his help. Too bad for us. Too bad for anyone who attempts to do business with this loser. read more

I inquired with many companies through Yelp. Most either wanted to completely redo my curtain rod without even seeing what needed to be done or would not do the job unless they were the ones who put in the curtain. Shade Servive had the highest reviews and now I know why. Professional, quick and friendly. Also everyone I talk to or dealt with just seem nice. Great job and price. Other stores should take a lesson from them. 5 out of 5. read more

I have a condo in SF city and the blind string was broken, I sent an inquiry to Shade Service on line to ask if they can repair it. Amina replied right away with the quote, provided the estimated completion days and scheduled the technician to pick up in the same day afternoon. The blinds was repaired on time and Amina sent another person to put it back right away. The total repair time including pick up and delivery is 5 days. Perfect! Communication/email response is timely. High recommended! read more

SF Blind was super helpful and well-priced. I broke the stings in my cellular blinds, and they were able to fix them quickly and affordably. I did some shopping around, and SF Blinds was also the best value. Ariana and Julia were attentive and understanding. They even showed me how to put my blinds back up! I did it wrong the first time. read more

I rarely leave a review but I decided to do so to get your attention Andy. It has been more than a half year since Andy promised me to fix the shade that was broken in the process of cleaning. But, unfortunately, the shade is still broken and Andy hasn't responded to my messages and calls for repair. When I called Andy again today, finally I got the automated message saying "Can I call you later?" Since the cleaning itself was fantastic, I would like to give Andy a chance to get it fixed and get five stars for cleaning quality. read more
