    We recently had the pleasure of working with Shades West, and we can't recommend them enough -- especially Daniel, who exceeded every expectation from start to finish. Daniel was the only one who responded to our Yelp project inquiry (you know the kind -- where you post your needs and hope someone bites). Not only did he respond promptly, but he also scheduled a consultation quickly, came out personally to take measurements, and walked us through our options without any pressure or upselling. The best surprise? Our shades were installed in just 2 weeks, when we were originally told 4. That kind of speed is rare these days. And the pricing? Fair, straightforward, and honestly too good to pass up -- no games, just value. Installation day was smooth and stress-free. Daniel arrived on time, installed everything beautifully (the shades are gorgeous and perfectly aligned), and left our space clean and tidy. He's personable, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable -- the kind of person you're genuinely happy to do business with. We're so glad we chose Shades West. If you're looking for fast, friendly, and quality service with beautiful results, ask for Daniel -- you won't regret it. This company actually shows up, and that alone deserves 5 stars.

    Danny and his team did an excellent job with the install of our awning! While we did have some post-install challenges with the rain/sun sensor and wind sensor, Danny was able to get replacements from the manufacturer and came back out to resolve them quickly! We had already fully paid at that point so it goes to show the professionalism and honesty of Shades West to make sure the job is done right!

    We consulted 5 different window treatment companies and went with Shades West (Danny) because we knew he would get the job done with the best price AND quality. Danny and his team did a 10/10 job when it came to professionalism, knowledge of product and quality of work. I was amazed how quick the process was especially in Hawaii and how wonderful everything looks installed. Do your due diligence in research but trust, you will be going with this company for the best experience possible!

    To help block out even more light in our bedroom we had Danny come back and install a blackout screen for our bedroom door - since it has frosted glass and lets in both daylight and indoor lighting - and it works like a charm. The quality and operation are top notch and we love the look plus the fact that we can sleep without needing an eye mask.

    We are part time residents in Waikiki; so scheduling an appointment and then showing up on time, on a Saturday as promised means a lot! Danny arrived on time, had copious amounts of samples and never made us feel rushed. He was very patient as we grokked all things blinds and answered our questions with professional insight and again patience. Danny provided a quote and stuck to that price, no nonsense upon delivery. The Alta motorized window shades he installed are amazing! The privacy blinds (solar screens) offer amazing see through views while the cutting down the heat coming into the unit. The black out shades are literally day and night, sleeping in is now guaranteed! Highly recommended!

    I live in a condo in Kaka'ako (Ae'o), in a studio and had been wanting to convert my old drapes to roller shades for some time. I cold called several window shade installers on yelp. Danny (Shades West) was the first to respond and quickly provided answers to all of our initial questions and was available a day or two later for a visit at our place. He had installed in our building before, so he knew all the procedures, where to park, all the logistics, etc. which was really convenient for us. We had a tricky install. We have a tilt and swing door that needed to remain operational but at the same time we wanted both black out shades and transparent shades that fit, accommodated the operable window, and complied with our house rules for modification. Danny was able to think outside the box and come up with a solution that was easy for us to understand. During the install, they did a great job, it was quick, everything fit like a drum, they left the place cleaner than when they arrived, and the roller shades looked and operated great. Side note: I couldn't find a place to board my dog while Danny and his crew worked, but Danny was really good with my dog and made friends with her while they were working. It made the whole process really convenient. Definately recommend Shades West and Danny.

    Manual shades by Shades Wesr

    Shades West was one of the two highly rated shades companies I called to schedule an appointment. The earliest Shades West could meet was a few weeks but I set something up and am so glad I did as I ended up not liking the other company. Danny gave me a solid price on the spot that included everything - selection of fabric, color, covering style, and install. 50% deposit up front. I received text and email updates for the upcoming install date. The install took around 3 hours. The installer Alex was efficient and professional and did a great job. He cleaned up and took all the cardboard away as well. Very happy with everything! The manual shades work fantastically and are very easy to move up or down.

    Bedroom, dual roller shades with blackout shades + regular shades

    We recently moved to a new home and decided to install single roller shades on the living room windows and blackout roller shades, along with regular roller shades, on the bedroom windows. Danny came by to give us an on-site estimate, and he was very patient in answering all our questions. He gave us good advice on choosing the perfect roller shades for us. Whenever we had additional questions, he replied back to us right away. We appreciated that he kept us updated on scheduling and ETA. The installation was quick, and the roller shades look beautiful on our windows and we LOVE them! Danny and Donald cleaned the job site, leaving it spotless - very impressive. If you're looking for a professional and reliable window treatment company on Oahu that provides quality materials at a reasonable price, call Shades West! I highly recommend Danny and the team :)

    My new awnings in today

    Danny and the team were amazing. They showed up on time, did an amazing job, and were very efficient on timing. Now that my awnings are complete, I'm thinking of other projects to use them for. Let them know Robert sent you!

    10/10 would recommend. Great quality product that looks amazing for a great price. Installation was very quick (around an hour for the door and window).

    New Shades West installation done!

    See all

After receiving a few estimates based on sending photos via email, I found Coreen at Island Awning. Something about her personal and quick response, led me to load the chairs up to drop them off. And although it was a bit of a challenge to find them and park, the friendliness, professionalism, and personalized/quick service was worth it! Coreen and husband AJ are a great team. The shop is in a bright pink building on Palama St. And although it may be a bit challenging to drop off/pick up your item, AJ is quick to meet you, offload your furniture, and guide you out of the short driveway. The result was outstanding, and price? Very nice!

I left a voicemail on their business line, and a person named Jonathan called back, stating that they will not perform significant repairs, citing safety hazards for my children and the poor quality of the job. There are construction errors on two of the main systems, with gaps between both the back and main entrance new systems, causing heavy flooding and fall hazards due to mildew buildup. More importantly, I have images and videos showing the load-bearing beam rotting from water being trapped between the existing roof and the new shading system. Additionally, the installation was poorly executed and of low quality. We waited six months for the installation, with materials stored in our yard the entire time. The company that delivered the materials picked coconuts and left their mess for me to clean up. To make matters worse, the third-party installers were unprofessional, cussing at each other during their shift, smoking marijuana on the property, and cameras caught them entering our home while no one was present. The installers also left extra materials in our yard after completing the job. Although we have a warranty for their work until 2030, the company is now refusing to fix the issues. These guy's need to be exposed. If anyone has a similar issue with this horrific company please reach out to kipperz808@yahoo.com. As you can see in all of Jonathans replies to other reviews he tries to justify his pilau companies flaws. So sad how he goes around telling lies. When its clear in the pictures that they do horrible work. Action line will be contacted next. Good luck Jonathan on your future endeavors. Lol
