I was lied to about the final price of the project. After agreeing to a final price I put down $1000 and was to pay the rest after the project was finished. At the end of the project, Marcus charged an extra $250 than what I was originally quoted. Not only that, I was charged the remainder without them notifying me. I was expecting a final bill. When I inquired about the extra $250, I was told that his boss could not do it for the price we agreed on. So, he was never going to tell me about the price increase until I asked about it, and he just charged my card the extra cost without my knowledge. The customer service and value for the money rating is low is because I was lied to about the cost. The blinds look fine, but they had to come back a second time because they did not have the blinds for two of the windows.

This was the worst experience I have ever had with any company. The owner definitely over promised and under delivered. The owner was so unprofessional when he could not deliver on the what was promised at the time of the sale. I went custom because I wanted a quality product and what I got was cheap blinds and hooks that came from Home Depot. The aggravation I got from the owner during the entire process so unbelievable and so unprofessional. Oh and the price was not cheaper as he advertised so I do not know where the 40% less than his competitor came from. I had to continue to follow up with him instead of him contacting me. All I can say is *buyers beware* of this company. I guess that is why he only has a 3.0 Rating. I am so disappointed unfortunate this business gives the small business owners a bad name.

Marcus the owner us very rude and sexually inappropriate. After receiving deposit, I never received a call with an update and scheduled installation date. They just showed up at my house. And left blinds, I did not have another option and they are currently working on this project. The installers are professional, the problem was with the owner.
Response from Home Blinds of America
"This is a preposterous comment and full of inaccuracies. Customer was told her Blinds will come in on Friday or Saturday and she said the first available, so my installers went to the home Friday evening, she said she was not available, we went back on Saturday, she then demanded 1,000 off from the blinds due to being late, she refused my installers to install the blinds twice on Saturday. Custom blinds are final sale, so we left the blinds at her home front driveway. After several days of conversations she finally agreed to allow us to install the blinds on Monday, after installation she commented how great the blinds look. Then I notice this negative comment about me, clearly because we did not give her 1,000 back or refund. In regards to the claim about sexual inappropriate comment, I asked her several times what was the sexual inappropriate comment, all i can recall saying was about her lovely fireplace colors and how nice it would look at nights. If that is a sexual inappropriate comment that is preposterous and is just trying to slander my name because we did not honor her request for 1,000 off the blinds due to being later, after she refused us to install the blinds and also not being home on Friday. when our installers came to her home. This is damaging comment to me and will be dealt with legally. This is considered as slander and i have contacted our attorney to deal with this public negative comment about me and my business. I ask her to take down this comment about me immediately, if it is not we will take actions to get this addressed with her in a formal forum.. Marcus Forrester, owner home blinds"

Consumers! PLEASE PLEASE use someone else. I paid over $600 for motor blinds that they installed May 2019 and I still can not use them. I have called so many times and asked for someone to come out and troubleshoot and repair them and I continue to get the run around. Every time I call, Marcus says he is going to send his son and crickets! Months later and still crickets. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! I am sure I will not get a call after this message but it is not as if they were coming back out anyway!

Home Blinds of America was the first company to contact me. Very proactive. We met that same day and I was very impressed. I waited two days to hear from the Louvre store and never heard from the third company. I also had a quote from Next Day Blinds who were twice as much as Home Blinds if America, a locally owned family business.

Overall the entire process went smoothly. The owner contacted me immediately and scheduled a time to come in and estimate. It took about 2 weeks after the estimate for the blinds and shades to arrive and schedule a time for installation. The crew that came in for installation was extremely polite and considerate and tried their best to keep my house clean and tried to keep the mess to a minimum.

The company was slow to schedule the appointment to install the blinds. I had to contact them twice and they weren't really apologetic about why they didn't contact me. But once the appointment was made, everything else flowed smoothly. The installer was courteous and did an outstanding job of installing my blinds.
Response from Home Blinds of America
"Not sure why the apology was needed new years day holiday was the reason for not calling, its a national holiday I was not working that day and did not make calls. but its ok, you cant please everyone, the install went great and customer is satisfied that what matters most. thanks"

I did not like having my appointment days and times changed several times.
Response from Home Blinds of America
"Sorry, it happens sometimes when prior appointments get delayed or cancelled, it rarely happens. This was due to prior appointment delays."

Marcus called shortly after I submitted the inquiry through this website. He did an on site estimate and walk through a few days later. We ended up going with a combination of solar shades and plantation shutters. He is very knowledgeable about the business and worked to get us a product (and a price) that we were happy with. Shades were installed a week and a half after ordering and the shutters were installed 3 weeks after the initial order. Installation took 1-2 hours for each and we are very pleased. I definitely recommend this company.

Horrible experience. Literally, they had to reinstall one set of blinds 6 times before it was the right size. Took about 4 months to complete a 1-day install. Had we not stayed on them for the right product, we'd likely have one blind that covered half the window. Only got their attention when I revoked a charge and withheld money. Also, horrible customer service. They would just randomly show up without calling. Can't recommend AGAINST them more highly.

I had a great experience with Home blinds at first ! Very friendly and helped us agree on what was best for our budget. Way cheaper then going to lowes. For 15 Big windows all over the home and a sliding door was 1,180 with installation taxes and all. It would have cost us 2,900 with another company. But I had to be on top of them to give me a date for when we had a delivery and installation we got the date. But the installer ended up in the hospital so I understood life happens. So we rescheduled for the following week. The installer was late but everything went smoothly expected they got the measurements for one window incorrect still waiting on that one. After all this there was a clerical error and they ended up withdrawing $400 out of my bank account without my knowledge I called and they tired to get it fixed but charged me another $400 soo $800 out of our account without my permission needless to say I was furious! In the end it took 4 days to fix the error thank God we had the money in the bank if not I don't know what would have happened to someone that didn't have that money. Needless to say based on my experience I do not recommend this company.

Very polite. I had to call and see if my blinds were in after I ordered them only to find out they were. I don't know why they didn't call to set up an installation date. However, they installed them within a week of speaking with them. They hung them promptly and cleaned up thoroughly. Very pleased.

9/7/09, I signed a contract with Home Blinds ordering wooden blinds and draperies. When the salesman visited my home, he was very helpful to me when selecting drapery fabrics. The blinds were installed 10/15/09. Home Blinds contacted me 7 weeks after the contract was signed and stated they made a mistake in the price. That is no fault of mine!!! When I attempt to find out the status of the order, I feel as if I've been given the "run around". It's been almost three months and I still have no drapes. I cannot, in good conscience" recommend Home Blinds of America to anyone. I have contacted an attorney on this matter.

Although my blinds have not been installed yet, the initial consultation was exceptional. The representative was professional, informative and very patient. Even after the free in-home estimate he answered questions by e-mail, phone and update estimates based on requested changes. I would highly recommend Home Blinds of America. Thanks for a job well done.

I would like to warn as many people as possible about the professionalism of Home Blinds of America. We hired Home Blinds of America to provide a service, but, instead the experience turned into a nightmare. 1. The company took FIVE months to complete a ONE month project. 2. The company constantly lied to our company about having materials, therefore, putting our company in jeapordy of losing a contract due to the lies that were told to us. 3. Home Blinds of America lastly, BUT, most importantly did not complete the job. We had to find another contractor at the last miniute to finish the job and saving our companies reputation.
