We moved into a new build house a few weeks ago and shopped around for window treatments. We knew we wanted Norman shutters as we had an excellent experience with them in another home. After calling around we found 2 companies in our area who could accommodate us. They each came to our home within a few days. We requested they bring samples as we wanted to be sure the product hadn’t changed over the few years since we last purchased them. Brad, owner of Made in the Shade, arrived with samples and a breadth of knowledge. He showed us configurations we hadn’t thought about which made more sense for this style house. He explained that as owner he would be with us every step of the way from measuring through installation of the shutters. No extra appointments dealing with middlemen. Today was the day and we couldn’t be happier! Brad and his team did an OUTSTANDING job installing our new shutters! They were on time, were respectful of our home by wearing shoe covers, were polite and worked diligently and efficiently. They estimated 4 hours to install 24 shutters and they were done in that time frame! Why did Made in the Shade win the job? Brad knows his products, he came to the initial meeting prepared and he was with us every step of the way! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Made in the Shade to anyone looking for a way to turn their house into a home! Thank you Brad, Matt and Nolan! It was a pleasure working with you on this project! Response from the owner: Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed and kind review! It was truly a pleasure helping you design and install your new Norman shutters. I’m so glad everything worked well for your new home, and that you’re pleased with the results. We take a lot of pride in making sure every project runs smoothly from start to finish, and your feedback means the world to us. Enjoy your beautiful new shutters, and thank you again for choosing Made in the Shade! Read this review and more like it on our Google Business Profile

Our windows look so amazing. We couldn't have picked a better company to go with. Nolan and Matt were awesome and so professional. They were precise and very careful while installing our blinds. I have never been more pleased with someone doing work in our home than I was today. If I ever need them again I'll will definitely be requesting Nolan and Matt. Thank you for being willing to do our shades and blinds. Carolyn bought many samples for us to look at she helped us decide the perfect privacy shades . She went above and beyond by providing us temporary shades . To ensure we had privacy while waiting for our order to be placed . Carolyn you are definitely a blessing, keep doing what you are doing, and this company will go far. We truly appreciate all your hard work to make our home beautiful.
