Custom Drapes & Automated Roller Blinds

I just had an AMAZING experience in all respects with Jasmina as my design consultant and also Raj and his wife wife as measurement and installation experts. My project was complicated for a variety of reasons and Jasmina managed it perfectly. The fabric selections were incredible and now all my new windows look absolutely incredible from the outside and the inside! I can't recommend Oakville Shades of Home enough. As an aside - the project was installed before the promised time frame. I have not experienced that at all in the last 18 months of renovations.

Custom Drapes

We'd recommend this company to everyone. Jasmine took our order , she was really helpful, efficient and friendly, guiding us through the process, we'd never had custom drapes made before.
The installers, a husband and wife team were amazing, so quick, efficient and friendly, I can't praise them enough, put drop cloths down, no mess whatsoever, and so happy with the drapes. Thanks W & A Baillie.

Window shades purchase and installation

I would recommend Shades of Home if you are in the market for any shades or window coverings. Sales representative Marie was very knowledgeable and helpful in choosing the right coverings for a number of different windows in my home including a bow window, kitchen windows, bathrooms and hallway window in stairway.
The quote was reasonable and comparable to other retailers. Once the order was placed it arrived within the timeframe that was given. Installation was completed in a timely and professional manner. The shades all look great. All in all a great experience.
I am not disclosing cost in this review.

Hi Vanessa

I'm glad we could help you. The black Hunter Douglas wood blinds look stunning.
I hope we can revisit the coverings for the patio door in the future.

It was my pleasure helping you.

Motorized blinds, roman shade, upholstery

The team at Shades of home provided excellent service and product.
Marie was our contact person who guided us through the process of choosing motorized blinds, a roman shade and the upholstery of an ottoman.
Her installation team arrived promptly and completed the work quickly and with care.
We will, no doubt, contact Shades of Home for future projects.
A very positive experience.

Great service, great product

I want to thank Marie and her team at Shades of Home. I have never ordered drapes before and she took such good care of me. Her replies were quick, she told me exactly what I needed and walked me through the process, even though what I needed was a little unusual! The drapes were ready BEFORE the estimated delivery date. Raj, the drape installer came quickly and did a fabulous job installing everything. I can’t thank you all enough. I’m so happy with the final product!

Shades/Blinds installation

We are very pleased with our new blinds. Jasmina at Shades of home was very helpful in her suggestions for window coverings. She listened to what we needed and provided helpful suggestions with no "upselling". Steven went above and beyond with the installation. He communicated with us well and offered to come sooner than planned when the materials came in. He was prompt, professional and courteous. The installation was completed earlier than expected. We felt very comfortable with Jasmina and Steven following Covid protocols. I would highly recommend this team.

Great service and design advice. Competitive prices.

Friendly team that helped us with design options for our entire home. Very helpful to be able to see the blind and drapery options in the Toronto showroom. Even though we decided to install ourselves given COVID concerns, the installer that delivered gave us detailed installation instructions and some good tips. Overall we were very pleased with the service, quality of products and end result. Thanks!

Hi Colin
Thanks for the review. It was a real pleasure helping you select the right treatments for your new home.

I hope you enjoy the drapery/sheers for the master bedroom. I thought it was the best option for the garden doors. I hope you did too.

Thanks again and if there's anything else we can do for you or your friends, we'd be happy to help

Thanks again

***

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.

Sincerely,
Stephen Poxon
