Excellent service and a great experience!…read more Rick from Rick's Custom Shutters and Blinds helped me fix four blinds at my home in Irvine, and I couldn't be happier with the work. Rick arrived right on time, quickly identified the issues, and completed all four repairs in about 30 minutes. The workmanship was excellent, the price was very reasonable, and there was no pressure to replace anything unnecessarily. It's hard to find someone who is quick, professional, reliable, and reasonably priced. I'm very glad I found Rick and would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs shutter or blind repair. Great work, fair price, and excellent experience!

We first worked with Rick 6+ years ago when we moved into our home. He installed shutters in our bedrooms and office, and they've held up beautifully. I remembered how professional and on top of everything he was, so I reached out again when we needed blinds for our bedroom. Jeremy and Parker came out for measurements and made the whole process incredibly easy. They walked us through options, gave thoughtful suggestions, and provided an estimate. All in about 10-15 minutes. About two weeks later, they returned for installation and were done in under 5 minutes. Everything was seamless. The best part is how it turned out. It's exactly what we envisioned, if not better. We now have automated blinds in our bay window that give us privacy while still letting in light, and they look so clean in person. They even upgraded us to a system without a visible battery pack, which made a big difference aesthetically. Truly some of the best in the industry. Friendly, efficient, and trustworthy. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you, Parker and Jeremy!

I reached out looking for a specific 4 panel sliding system & they responded almost immediately. Instead of trying to sell me something that wasn't right for my home, they were completely upfront that their current products probably wouldn't meet the style I was looking for. That kind of honesty is rare. No pressure, no sales pitch, no wasting my time. Just fast, professional communication and straight answers. Sometimes you learn more about a company by how they handle the sale they can't make than the one they can. Excellent customer service and integrity. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend giving them an opportunity.

Great customer service and everyone I spoke with was very nice and professional…read more However, I am extremely unhappy with the actual installation and final product. First, the installation team left without addressing the cracks/damage to my windowsill. They obviously saw the damage but did not mention it or let me know that someone would be scheduled to come back and fix it. I had to call the company myself and send pictures before they sent someone out. When they came back, all they did was sand down the damaged area and fill it in. I am also very disappointed with the fit of the shutters. I was told afterward that the shutters are not custom-sized and that the gap around them is "industry standard" because of the sizing of new-build windows. The gap is large enough that you can actually see the screws, which makes the shutters look like they were not properly sized for the window. What makes this even more disappointing is that their website advertises "custom shutters" and describes their shutters as having a "perfect fit." Someone came to my home to measure my windows before I purchased them, so I was under the impression that the shutters would be custom measured and ordered specifically for my windows. I was also told that I would have to wait weeks for the shutters because they needed to be ordered in the correct size. The final result does not look or feel like a custom, perfect-fit installation. When someone finally came out to address the damaged windowsill, I was also told that if I wanted to cover the large gap, I should purchase a weather stripping product from Amazon and install it myself. I was very surprised that after spending $1,500 on two windows, I was being directed to purchase something myself to make the shutters look properly finished. Had I known beforehand that there would be a noticeable gap, visible screws, and that I would essentially need to add my own weather stripping to make the installation look finished, I would have purchased from a different company. I spent approximately $1,500 on shutters for just two windows, so I expected a much better fit and finish. I understand that some clearance may be necessary for installation, but the large gap and visible screws are not what I expected from a company advertising custom shutters and a perfect fit. Overall, while the customer service was pleasant, I am extremely disappointed with the final product and the way the installation issues were handled. I wish the expectations regarding sizing, gaps, and installation had been made clear before I made the purchase.

The initial visit to their showroom was completely stress-free. There was no pushy salesperson trying to upsell us. Instead, their staff walked us through all the available options, answered every question we had, and gave us the time we needed to look everything over and make an informed decision. Once we selected our door, the scheduling process was simple and seamless. They kept us well informed about the delivery timeline and were very accommodating with our schedule. On the day of installation, our installer, Danny, arrived right on time and was a pleasure to work with. He was extremely professional, worked efficiently, and delivered excellent quality. He also left the area as clean--if not cleaner--than he found it. We truly couldn't be happier with our new door. I've already recommended Hometime to a few friends and will continue to do so. If you're in the market for doors or windows, this should absolutely be your first stop--you won't be disappointed.

We ordered a front entry door on Nov 24th for about $6135. Unfortunately we had to wait til…read moreFebruary 4th to have it installed. We were told that the wait is due to the process of the door being made. We explained before they started that we wanted to keep the baseboard of the front door but it wasn't kept. However, the company did reimburse us for $200 for the price of the board & installation. Once we had it installed we thought we were ready to go! However, quickly we noticed within a few days that the door was not closing properly. The handle would not reset when it closed and then within a few weeks it was not working at all. I immediately contacted them on March 7th. I explained the situation and was told to take pictures as requested by Chanel (warranty correspondent). I was told that they had to order new parts from Emtec and it would take a couple of weeks. We had agreed to set it up on Monday April 6th. The service man who arrived came over and immediately noticed that the parts needed to be ordered and the correct part were not ordered. However, I was told that the door should be working. Wow, that was far from the truth because immediately the door stopped working the next day. So we're back to square 1. Our door doesn't close because the handle on the door doesn't work. In the meantime, the only thing that worked and kept the front door closed was the security latch. If not the door would be wide open. I spoke to Chanel again, she said we had to order the part again. Apparently it was not ordered last week. In the meantime, we're paying for our door about $500 each month since February and yet our front door doesn't work. If you decide to work with this company please take the amount of time and the cost into consideration.

He went over the details and did not rush us through the consultation process. We picked out the curtain and shutters, paid the 50% deposit and then our experience started to deteriorate a little bit. It would take a month of no contacts from Mike before I decided to reach out, only to find out our curtains were delayed. He was nice enough to pass on the free shipping discount from the manufacture to us, which is nice. Installation day finally came, and went smoothly for the most part. After they left we realized the curtain assembly rod color might not what we had thought we ordered (by this point we don't remember what we ordered anymore, and the order summary does not give us a color option, it also has a lot of technical terms in the descriptions that we don't really understand). We might have picked this color in the beginning for all we know, so I can't really blame Mike for this. Moral of the story is just take some photos of what you choose when placing the order, since the order summary does not have any pictures or meaningful description on it. The shutters came out very nice, and the quality of the curtain fabric is also excellent. I wish Mike would have been more prompt with his communication and keep us posted during the process. I wish him the best, but I might not go with him next time around.

Nico was professional from the very beginning - polite, punctual, approachable, and genuinely knowledgeable. He absolutely oozes expertise and has an impressive amount of patience when explaining all the different options. We really appreciated that he never pushed his own preferences on us. He also respects your home in a way that stands out; he moves through your space thoughtfully and never imposes. During the free consultation, he meticulously measured four windows and two sliding glass doors, and he provided a quote that same day. The pricing was also extremely reasonable. We interviewed a total of three blinds companies, and Classic Blinds was the clear and obvious choice. Nico made a fantastic first impression, and our instincts turned out to be 100% correct. The vertical blinds arrived right on schedule, and so did Nico and Daniel on installation day. The quality of the blinds exceeded our expectations. We have had blinds before, and these are truly the real deal in terms of durability - and they also happen to be beautiful. After the installation (which took only about an hour and a half!), Nico and Daniel took the time to explain how to care for the blinds. Nico also reminded us of the five-year warranty and encouraged us to reach out with any questions or concerns. From start to finish, we felt we were in excellent hands. This company is the complete opposite of a fly-by-night operation, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-quality, affordable blinds that are also installed the right way. We are already very excited about our upcoming cellular blinds installation in our dining room, and there is no question that we will continue using Classic Blinds again in the future.

Our installers: AKA "The A Team" Enrique, Christian and Carlos came completely prepared and performed the work in a professional craftsmen-like manner with much attention to detail. When you can find tradesmen that do work with attention to detail, respecting your home and investment, they need to be applauded which I extend to this Team! To top it off, Andrew, the owner of Hometime, reached out personally, the same day of the installation, to check on how the job went and see if we were satisfied with the job. To summarize: If you are considering replacing windows and are looking for a quality job with a company that takes pride in their product and work, you need not look further!

Hopefully you can see in the picture they did such a great job and they were installed perfectly. There is no need for painting or touch up on the walls, stucco or trim. We are looking forward to the next few phases of getting new front doors, back doors and also windows. It's great that you can do them in phases and you don't get the pressure to do it all at once. We highly recommend Hometime. Another family member also used them to replace all their windows and a slider and they loved them too.

Although the price was somewhat reasonable, the overall experience reflected that lower cost…read more The installation felt unprofessional and poorly executed. It was a two-person crew and communication was difficult due to a language barrier (mandarin speaking only), which made it hard to clarify details or ask questions during the process. We did use Google Translate but it only went so far. My biggest concern is the inconsistent quality of the roller shade and blind installations. Some blinds operate correctly, but others shift when adjusting them -- the headrail moves up and down whenever the tilt wand is used. Instead of correcting the mounting, a temporary workaround was used that leaves the headrail sticking out about an inch. There were also measurement and fit issues. One roller shade cassette appeared to be incorrectly sized and had to be forced into place. Several shades are not evenly aligned within the window frames, with varying inset depths that are visibly inconsistent. Additionally, one of the roller shades fails to fully close, which suggests quality or installation problems. Overall, I'm disappointed with the workmanship and finish.
