WHO WE ARE - over 25 years in the window covering business

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

CALIFORNIA SHUTTERS: We provide Custom Wood Shutters, Eclipse Vinyl Shutters, MaxXmar Wood & Vinyl Shutters, Hunter Douglas Vinyl & Hybrid Shutters and Richwood Engineered Wood Shutters. We will recommend the right shutters at the best price for everyones specific requirments.

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 - 25 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 some 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.

Sincerely,
Stephen Poxon
Owner

Marie brought numerous samples to my home and helped me with the decision and I am very pleased with the end result. The installation team were very professional but also very personable and did lovely job installing the blinds and sheers. They also took away all the wrappings and left everything neat and tidy. Thank you to all involved. Wonderful people to work with and highly recommended.

Hi Donna

Thanks for taking the time to right this review. Our installers, Raj and his wife are an awesome team and we get compliments all the time on their workmanship, cleanliness and professionalism. Great products installed properly makes all the difference in the world to the end result.

Thanks again. It was a pleasure helping you.

Loft Living

Hamilton

3 months ago

We bought a loft with floor to ceiling windows in the living room and bedroom. Both rooms face south and are directly across the street from an apartment building. Besides wanting privacy we also needed a little shade from the heat of the sun. We opted for dual shades in both room to solve both issues.
Steve was extremely helpful, not only from the initial online enquiries, but with the in-store visit to organize the details.
And then there was Raj, the installer, who makes it look like the shades have always been there. Great attention to detail!

The photos of the end result are Stunning! The Maxxmar double roller shades in the grande cassette were the best solution for your wide and tall windows.

I'd also like to thank you for sharing the photos of the finished work with me. If you have a chance, please post them here so others can see what they look like.

Thanks again.

Whole House New build

Builders review in

6 months ago

Our experience with Shades of Home was fantastic. We walked into the Toronto showroom with little to no ideas for our build. Marie gave us great ideas for our whole house. The install team was as professional as they come, explaining their plans from the moment they got in the door. We couldn't be happier with the results. The curtains and shades all look and feel amazing. Highly recommend.

Thank you Dave.
For us it was an enjoyable experience as well.
Thanks so much for letting us look after your window treatments.

Hunter Douglas Sonnette Blinds for Bedrooms

We recently purchased Hunter Douglas Sonnette motorized roller blinds from Shades of Home for both our bedrooms (3 windows in all). Steve met us at our home and clearly guided us through the process of selecting the best blinds for our needs as well as a suitable colour for our decor. He carefully measured the window frames, suggesting just how the blinds should best be placed within the frame, and his measurements turned out to be absolutely accurate. He provided very competitive pricing on the product and kept us up to date on the order delivery time from Hunter Douglas. Steve was also very thoughtful and accommodating in arranging an installation time that fit with our schedule. The installation itself was done by Raj and his assistant and went flawlessly.

Hi Robert

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with Shades of Home.

The Hunter Douglas Sonnette Shades were perfect for your home.

Thank You for reaching out to us, letting us supply and instal them for you.

They were on time, tidy, very experienced, detail oriented, efficient and very respectful of our home (i.e. the walls and flooring). Thank you again to all. Well worth thd investment. We would surely recommend Shades of Home as well as their installation team (Raj and co.) to all. N &S

Excellent service and product

Green Products & Services review in Toronto

Marie at Shades of Home attended to me on my search for just the right window covers for windows of odd sizes. She showed utmost professionality and understanding of my needs, and made the purchase feel easy and affordable. The installers were fantastic and absolutely exact. From start to finish, I couldn't have been happier.
I have waited for a while before writing this review in order to settle in with my new window shades so I can say from a place of conviction: I highly recommend Shades of Home!

Hello Ursula

Thanks for the kind words. We try, with every customer, to have the same outcome.
Marie is my Star and all of her customers love her.
And what can I say about Raj? He does an excellent job and the clients really appreciate his professionalism.

Thanks again,
