I had black out blinds in the bedrooms installed and panel blinds in my living room a while ago…read more It was a couple that had brought me the swatches for the honeycomb style blackouts as well as the varieties of colors for the panels too. I picked out 5 track for the panels to have the blinds open up on each side. Once fully closed, they overlap nicely. While open they aren't exactly lined up on either ends. The blackout blinds had to be broken into 2 sections due to the height of the windows, they were 8 feet tall, the solid wasn't ideal but doable. The bigger section from the start would get stuck while trying to close to the ground and will often get stuck about 2-3 inches off the ground. The panels have to be carefully closed or they will bend and fold onto each other as they close over and pass the tracks. The right side must be closed over first and then the left. Sometimes I have to fix them so they don't bend as they go over the previous panels to nicely lay as planned. The panels are a bit more money but they look cool and give a nice shading, but not too much. All told, it was under $5k. The blackouts still leave gaps to the walls and soffits.

Neil and Ross Disney (a father-and-son team) visited our house to review and recommend various options, taking precise measurements for each window. We ultimately ordered roller blinds, honeycomb shades (including blackout), and SmartDrapes for over 30 windows of varying sizes. Additionally, we chose battery-operated shades for our living and dining rooms to achieve a clean, cordless look. The Disneys delivered and professionally installed all items on time and to our satisfaction. Subsequently, we ordered a few more honeycomb shades for additional windows. As mentioned, everything was completed on time and met our requirements. We were delighted with their work and would rate our customer service experience as 5 out of 5 stars. An accurate measure of any business is its after-sales service. In May 2024, nearly three years later, we encountered an issue with one of the honeycomb shades (one of the cells separated) and a malfunctioning battery for the power shades. On both occasions, a simple email to Budget Blinds initiated their customer service process. Thankfully, both items were covered by Budget Blinds' lifetime warranty for original owners. The Disneys promptly ordered the replacement items and professionally reinstalled them within days of our contact. We wholeheartedly recommend Budget Blinds of Birmingham (the Disneys) and consider them our go-to business for blinds, shades, and SmartDrapes. Thank you!

I was trying to get my blinds in dining room fixed since early October, call after call, promised Thanksgiving then Christmas then..after numerous calls n messages they don't even know who I am in mid January. They had multiple blinds to fix. Early December they finally came to install, I paid in full for one installed blind the others had numerous incorrect parts so more delays. Began the weekly phone call, Ignored again. Finally mid Jan they have the parts. Now I can only call it as I felt but I was being blackmailed by a man named Dan. Never ever met him I don't even know his position. I do know He berated me over and over, demanding a made up $85 fee for a 2nd trip. It was their error they had to come back. I attempted to explain, but told to stop talking, he didn't care to listen, kept saying he knew everything. Confused and mad I refused the fee. He begins to ramble on in an anger attack, about me talking and then, blames us. Yes, we are the real problem. We didn't buy some verticals from them and he is furious . I guess he must be going broke. My small job is nothing . Months of calls delay, zero customer follow-up, now blackmail. They have my parts, they broke several clips and nothing good from this experience.

Debi and Hartley came out to our home and were wearing masks and all practiced COVID-19 precautions. Always great working with them! They take their time, give advice, and try to work within your budget and your wants. They actually talked us out of getting a more expensive window treatment option and I am so glad we listened! We placed our order and they measured our windows. We received a discount for being repeat customers and a few other discounts here and there - which is always appreciated. We were quoted 6-7 weeks out but to our surprise our window treatments were ready in about 4 weeks. Bill was our installer and he was just as helpful and professional. He kept us in the loop on when he could come out and where he was the day of our install. A door wall and 6 bedroom windows only took about 45 minutes to install. Very happy with the results and it is so nice to have good quality blinds that will last - they also offer a lifetime warranty! I'd recommend time-and-time again - great product and great company.

We had been wanting and needing window coverings for our loft for some time, but were stymied when it came to knowing where to go. Then I found the booklet, and was pleasantly surprised to find out this business was just a few blocks from our home, so we went to check it out. The shop is owned and operated by Doug Scheibner, and not only is he a window covering guy, he's an interior designer. But the great thing about Doug is that he really listens to what you want, and then he comes to your place and sees what you need, and then he comes up with a plan to make you totally happy. Prices are very reasonable for custom made window coverings. And service is beyond compare ... Doug goes the extra mile for his customers. He is truly a nice guy and a pleasure to do business with.

I strive to support local businesses, especially when I have large home projects to complete (e.g. ordering a few thousand dollars worth of window coverings). I called It's Your Window, spoke to Doug (seemed friendly) and we discussed two potential days for a home visit. He didn't want to schedule right then (which I would have preferred). Instead we agreed he'd call back that Thursday. Never happened, nor did the home visit - not even after I called Doug one more time after being blown off. The best I got was an accidental butt dial the day I called the first time. Things come up, which is why I'm giving 2 stars. Perhaps there was a family emergency (I really hope not). Or maybe he was busy with clients he deemed more important than a new one. Regardless, knowing my need was immediate and my time off was rare, Doug could have cordially declined the job - or offered to schedule another time. Instead he wasted both of my days off by saying he'd come out on one of them, which kept me from scheduling with an another company because I was expecting him. It was very unprofessional, unkind and uncool.
