"I am delighted with the shades and installation provided by Made in the Shade. Ernie could not have made the entire experience any easier. He came to my home on a Saturday, he measured the windows I wanted to cover, I selected the shades, and two weeks later he was back with the installer. I knew what I wanted before he came so the selection process was quick, but he has an extensive selection of styles, colors, and price points to choose from. I strongly recommend this company."

"I cannot comment after the project is installed."

I am a semi retired builder/contractor providing handyman services to complete those odd jobs that linger or he or she don't want to do. Professional quality work and we clean up after ourselves.

"I am so happy with my Made in the Shade experience. Will is great at what he does, he made the whole project so easy. He is knowledgeable about all different types and brands of blinds, and he helped me decide what would be best for our house. He was professional and friendly, he did a great job cleaning up after himself during the installation, and the price was way better than I could find anywhere else. I would highly recommend using Made in the Shade if you re looking for blinds or any other type of window coverings!"

"Work has not been installed yet but experience was professional and friendly."

"I used MA Design & Construction for my kitchen remodel. Raquel and Marc were very helpful in going through the options from painting the existing cabinets through to full replacement. We started with more modest changes but after debate ended with essentially their initial recommendation. The workers throughout the project were professional and I never felt uneasy with them being around the family. As the project progressed there were recommendations that Marc or Raquel would make which led to a better outcome. Marc would also pick out imperfections in the work and insure they were addressed which was appreciated. We're very pleased with the outcome and would not hesitate to work with them again."

"We were pleased with Brenda and her services, for three reasons. First, she has excellent design sense. She proposes things that are a little provocative, but she does not force her tastes on you. She's very quick to respond to comments and concerns. Second, she delivered what we wanted in the way of a green project. Because of her very detailed construction spec, the job was "clean and green," with a minimum of dust and disruption in other parts of the house and a minimum of outgassing from construction materials. Third, she was essential during construction. Sometimes she'd play "good cop" when we played "bad cop," and vice versa, when contractors were looking to cut corners or depart from the spec. She visited frequently during construction, and stayed ahead of problems. It gave us real piece of mind to have Brenda sweat ALL of these details. There was only one area in which we were weren't happy. Whether it was because "green" designs are unconventional (by the standards of the bathroom-renovation industry), or because Brenda's spec was too unusual, it took many months for us to find even one contractor who would bid on our project. Traditional renovators had no experience with Brenda's proposed methods or materials, and thus they refused to bid. The one contractor whom Brenda suggested considered our project too small. All of this resulted in a substantial delay to the start of the project. It also meant that when we found (on our own) the only contractor who'd bid on the project, we had no leverage in negotiating a price. Thus, in addition to the project starting late, our $25K-$30K bathroom project ended up over $40K. While we don't blame Brenda for the fact that green construction is new and more expensive, we think Brenda should have warned us more about the timing and cost consequences of going "green," particularly on smaller home-renovation projects. We still might have proceeded as we did, but at least we would have been prepared for the final price."

"Absolutely thrilled with the new blinds installed at my shop! The quality is top-notch, and the installation was seamless. Francisco was professional, efficient, and courteous, ensuring a perfect fit and finish. The blinds have transformed the space, and I couldn't be happier! Five stars and highly recommended!""
