What they say…

Shades By Design is fantastic! They are professional and reasonable with their pricing. They are A+ communicators end to end. Renato came to do the installation, he was 10/10. Hanna and Gil spearheaded the whole project. I would definitely recommend

Working with Samar at Shades by Design has been a pleasure. She has been creative, responsive, caring and professional throughout the project. She is a positive, can do kind of person and made it any easy experience. Sam and Joe, their installers were also terrific. They showed up on time, were very nice and professional and good at what they did. Overall a great experience. There was a small stain on one of the cornices when it arrived from production but the manager has been advised and I’m waiting to hear back.

Shades by design had to remove and then reinstall my shades ( bought from them) due to my having hurricane glass installed everywhere. The technician , Renato, was terrific, efficient and did a spectacular job, leaving everywhere he worked immaculate. They’re not inexpensive but they are very good.

We just had black-out shades installed in our bedrooms. Hanna Mourani was friendly, professional and kind. The initial visit was for measurements, which took only minutes. During the second visit, he confirmed the initial measurements, and brought his team member Pedro to ensure that everything was ready for the installation (also very quick). Today the shades are in, and they look great. Pedro did a fantastic job. He even removed and disposed of the old window treatments, along with cleaning up his work space. Thank you Hanna for making this processes so easy!

Shades By Design was amazing. Their team installed 3 full bedrooms worth of shades in just one day by working efficiently and professionally. The entire team was very kind and worked flawlessly. Will definitely hire them for all future shade work! Couldn’t say enough good things about this company.

The people I dealt with were professional and courteous. The installation had to be postponed a few times due to my scheduling conflicts, but the agent was patient and ultimately the installation took place on the day and specified.
