Draperies

We recently purchased draperies for our front room and we could not be more pleased with the service we received from Shades of Home. Hilary came to our house with samples so that we could see how the fabrics would look with our furniture and was able to suggest solutions that fit with our budget. Ben, who came to install the new draperies and rods, was very professional and meticulous, making sure that the draperies hung properly.
We were so satisfied that we ordered custom drakes foe our dining room as well. Once again, the service from both Hilary and Ben was perfect. We highly recommend Shades of Home.

We moved into our house in November and had our shutters and blinds installed before Christmas.
Steve and Marie were great to work with and would highly recommend Shades of Homes.
They were helpful in deciding our needs and have so many products to choose from. We wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Living and Dining Room Draperies

I had been looking for a company to provide custom draperies for my living and dining rooms and saw the reviews for Shades of Home. I popped in there one day and met Marie who, although she had been heading out the door, spent some time with me showing samples based on the description of what I was looking for. I set up an appointment for a few days later and Marie came to my home with fabric samples. We found the perfect fabric for side panels and found a complementary fabric for sheers. I placed my order and was advised that delivery would be in four weeks. The draperies were delivered and installed right on schedule last week. The workmanship is great and the draperies are exactly what I was looking for. Needless to say, I am very pleased and will not hesitate to use Shades of Home again!

Living and Dining Room Drapery

Shades of home provided invaluable in-home advice on dressing windows in our living and dining rooms. The project included two bow windows (which present some challenges) and two single casements. The treatment and fabrics suggested were perfect. The draperies were beautifully sewn and the installation carried out in a most professional manner. I would not hesitate to recommend Shades of Home, Oakville.

Window Coverings - design and installation

When we were looking for a professional designer's touch in choosing new window coverings for our home, we chose Shades of Home because they carried brands we were interested in and offered free in home design service. It was the perfect choice for our needs! Marie came to our home with a carload of fabric samples and had a great eye for suggesting solutions. She listened to our needs and respected our ideas and helped us coordinate our blinds and drapes. We are thrilled with the results.

Blind and drape installation

We've had a great experience working with Shades of Home. We had several windows and sliding doors that required blinds throughout our home. Marie's design suggestions worked well both functionally and aesthetically. Steve made the installation easy and efficient. A minor issue with one blind at the manufacturer is being dealt with in a timely and professional manner. I would not hesitate to recommend them or work with them again!

Blinds and Shades for our New House

We recently moved into our new house, and were looking for blinds and shutters. We saw the positive reviews with Shades of Home and decided to get a quote; the end-to-end experience was excellent. Marie and Steve are down-home, no pressure, and easy to work with folks. Our California shutters were manufactured in the GTA - it's nice to see local production.
Highly recommended.

Shutter and shade installation

My wife & I had purchased a new condominium in Oakville and were in need of window coverings so on a weekend drive we decided to drop into the "Shades of Home" showroom in Oakville. We had no previous history with this company so we really didn't know what to expect. We were greeted by Steve, one of the owners who very quickly gained our trust and respect. We discussed our requirements and came up with a game plan. The entire process from start to finish was seamless and professional. They delivered on their promises and the end result was a fantastic installation !
It was a pleasure to deal with a company that truly appreciates your business and we would recommend "Shades of Home" for your window covering requirements without hesitation.
Sincerely,

It was a real thrill to help you with the window coverings for your condo. I know how important it was to maintain the beautiful view of the lake while providing privacy in some of the windows and I know Marie and I had fun, you were both great to deal with.
Plus you have one of the nicest suites in the Bluwater condominium on the lake with fantastic views of the Hamilton and Niagara skyline.
Thanks again for the review!
