New window coverings

I felt welcome the moment I walked into the store. Staff greet you and are warm and helpful. Staff listen and are knowledgeable about their fabrics , products and can help you decide what blinds or draperies will work for you!! Jasmina has great ideas and suggestions....and she understood what I wanted in my home. She keeps in touch to let you know how things are progressing. The installation team is beyond expectations!! They know what they are doing!! Professional and pay attention to detail. I could not be happier!!

New Drapery

We couldn't be happier with Shades of Home. Thanks to Marie we have beautiful living room and bedroom drapes. Marie was amazing and easy to work with as her attention to detail to suggest appropriate colors, fabric texture and matching hardware was outstanding. The new drapery has completely changed the look of our rooms and we love how updated our home looks now. I would highly recommend Marie and her installer Raj if you are in need of new drapes for your home. Thank you again for your help. I couldn't have done it without you Marie!

Sheers and drapes

Were very happy with the sheers and drapes we had made and installed through Shades of Home, Oakville. With Jasminas expertise and guidance, we chose beautiful fabrics, elegant ripple fold style and track.
The panels are well-made, fall nicely and evenly, notably where they meet when closed.
Raj and Sarla did excellent work in measuring and installing the track, sheers and drapes. They advised us on how best to open and close them and made sure they were hanging properly. We very much appreciate their careful attention to detail.

Jasmine was very easy to work with over 2 separate orders. Precise with measurements, patient, helpful and excellent communicator. The blinds were on time and all fit as they should have. The installers they hired were also excellent.

Sheers for the living room and dining room

It was time to replace the sun damaged sheers for the living room and dining room and Jasmine of Shades of Home gave us her expert support and services. Despite issues with supply chains, Jasmine helped us to choose some lovely fabric and came herself to measure and plan for the installation. In a short period of time, our drapes were ready and Jasmine's staff installed them in a quick and professional manner. We are very satisfied with Shades of Home's service and the excellent quality of our new sheers.

Drapery and Cordless Roman Blinds

This is our second time using Shades of Home for our window treatments. From start to finish our experience was completely positive and professional. We are extremely happy with our drapes and roman shades. Excellent quality! Our consultant was very knowledgeable and provided us with an in-home visit and came prepared with fabric samples and listened to our needs, we appreciated her suggestions and honesty when it came to selecting the right cordless roman shade. We never felt rushed to make a decision. The installers are very professional and take great pride in their work. They took the time to show us how to properly utilize these new cordless roman shades. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend their services to our friends and family.

Blinds and Drapes

This is the second time we used Shades of Home, in our house in Toronto and now for our condo! We are extremely happy with their services and love our blinds and drapes. The quality is excellent. They helped with selection and gave their opinions with options. The installers are so professional and take pride in their work. They were very careful and made sure everything was functioning and installed correctly. In addition , we recommended them to our friends who in turn were very happy! You get what you pay for! We definitely will use them in the future.

Wonderful! Friendly, effcient and great result

Highly recommend working with Shades of Home. Very professional and easy to work with. I had blinds installed in my condo. The blinds were ready earlier than planned and they were able to install the next day. Looks great and I'm very happy with the result.

Entire house - New Blinds

Marie at Shades of Home is amazing!
Great customer service.
We had our entire home fitted for new blinds and we could't be happier with not only Marie (sales) but also the installer Raj.
Today it seems there are a lot of companies that just don't provide after sales service, however this company is not the same as most.
We are extremely pleased!

***

WHO WE ARE - over 35 years in the window covering business

We do one thing, and we do it Really, Really Well.

Our DRAPERY SPECIALISTS and workroom can create any soft fabric treatment. Our showrooms carry a huge selection of designer drapery fabrics for our clients to choose from. Many of our drapery clients come to us after we have provided 'functional' window treatments in their homes or in their friends home and others have found our showroom on their own.

MAXXMAR offers some of the most innovative and well priced window treatments in the marketplace today. We offer the full line of MaxXmar window fashions at prices our competition can't beat.

HUNTER DOUGLAS: We have been a Hunter Douglas dealer for over 20 years. Both of our showrooms are SHOWCASE SHOWROOMS meaning you will find every Hunter Douglas product on display with staff who can explain every Hunter Douglas option and our volume pricing ensures that it will be unlikely you will find a lower price on you Hunter Douglas Manual and PowerView shades.

SUNGLOW: Specializing in the manufacturing of Sunscreen roller shades for residential and commercial applications, we offer SunGlow to our clients who are looking for oversized shades not available from Hunter Douglas, Elite or MaxXmar. Their experience in Somfy motorization, linked shades, height and width makes them one of our key suppliers for commercial and condo applications.

ELITE WINDOW FASHIONS: Since 1967 this Canadian company has been offering a wide selection of quality window coverings. Well priced with fabrics similar to Hunter Douglases offerings, including e-motion and Somfy motorization.

MOTORIZATION We have been selling, installing and programming motorized shades and drapery long before it became an entry level option for automating window coverings - 35 years to be exact. Knowledge AND experience is an absolute necessity and all of our staff and technical installers are trained. Not only will the shades be properly installed but also programmed and integrated into a variety of smart home systems.

Our sales approach is one of collaboration. Our staff is hired for their ability and trained to spend enough time with the client to fully understand their expectations, needs and budget. Then we can suggest options and allow the client to make the value decision for themselves.

We spend the extra time with each client to ensure they are choosing the right product that will provide solutions to their needs. We try our best to balance privacy, light control with the right product that fits within the clients budget.

All in all I strive to make the environment and experience as stress-free as possible for my staff and clients.

Stephen Poxon
