AP Shutters & Blinds / SHADES reviews
93 The installation and delivery was flawless. A very competent crew and electrician. Very happy with the outcome.
One small negative feedback: it took 2 months and a few phone calls from me between the substantial payment of a 50% deposit and the installations date to confirm the later. Proactive update on the status of my order and on the installation date would have been appreciated, as well as a smaller lead time between order and delivery. You were very diligent however when it came to chase the balance due!:)
I visited 5 curtain businesses till I decided to go with SHADES and I'm glad I did so:)
Hannah, the consultant, had been so lovely to work with. From the 1st showroom visit, the product selection till the installation, she provided so many precious and unique suggestions and she's excellent in communication. This was particularly appreciated when you tried to organize things for your new place while still living interstate. Moreover, SHADES was the only business showing me how many more options you could do around your roller blinds after only hearing "well roller blinds.they are simple and just as they are, not much else! " from all other businesses.
Richard, the installer, was very well-presented and overall just a lovely man to chat with. We were also very impressed with how he always keeps his working area so clean & tidy - he had a pair of shoes specifically for indoor wearing, had blanket under all his tools, handled everything gently and not a single screw or plastic piece left behind after the job is finished! As a client I felt our place was well taken care of by him all the time.
Overall an amazing experience and surely will be back if I ever need more window furnishing!
Love this company and have been using them since before the re-brand to Shades. Lovely staff with a great eye for detail and style.
As an Interior Design professional Shades is the only supplier I trust with my client projects.
Had a great experience with Shades, from first contact with office to measure and quote with Hannah and installation with Con. Well done!
I am very happy with the end products from shades and found the installers to be efficient and professional.
I have had shutters & recently roller blinds made & installed by Shades. They are professional company, timely, efficient and product is of high standard. Would definitely recommend them & also use them again.
It’s unfortunate to have to do this, but I simply can't recommend SHADES to any customer who wishes to be satisfied with their purchase. This disheartening ordeal has extended over months and still yet to be resolved.
After our initial measure and order, the installers came to discover the shutters to be measured out incorrectly and subsequently left without an apology, mentioning they will be replaced in the future. Two follow ups later we discovered that the replacement shutters had not even been ordered and we’ve been forgotten about. We understand that mistakes happen, but feeling ignored after this does not help.
Months later and still no resolution from their non-existent customer service team of whom we constantly have to reach out to on our own accord. After finally getting someone to book in another fitting of the replacement shutters (which took another two phone calls) I was lied to that someone had already reached out to us to book this in, they had not. We tried to believe the sales team at SHADES were going to resolve the issue in a timely and honest fashion but this just hasn't been the case.
All in all, really surprised to receive such unapologetic and inept customer service when there are so many positive reviews here.
We are more than happy with the blinds and curtains at our apartment. We were also happy with the service and work of Hannah and Alex.
Nothing is perfect in life, but we were more than satisfied.
My entire experience using Shades was excellent - the staff were informative, efficient and really pleasant.
I am more than happy with the finished product and I would recommend Shades in a heartbeat.
This is my 7th time I have worked with Shades - and the experience continues to be outstanding. Efficient and they understand how to provide excellent service. Highly recommended.
Always great service and friendly staff. I have been a customer for over 20 years and would recommend Shades without reservation.
This is the third time I have used this company on three of my houses. This company is a good family business. I found this company to be very honest, reliable, very competitive. Do yourself a favour and give them a go.
I couldn’t recommend Patrick, Andrew and the team at Shades more. They were a pleasure to work with, delivered a great service, were competitively priced and flexible with our requirements.
Fantastic company to work with. They offer realistic time frames and deliver within those time frames with good updates in-between check measure and installation. Very friendly and easily contactable. Product is as advertised and good quality, highly recommended.
Ashla was very helpful in helping me choose a fabric and her measurements were spot on.
Alex was extremely polite and even took his shoes of at the from door. There's not to many tradesmen who do that. Alex was very efficient in installing the curtain and left no mess. I'm very satisfied, a great job. Thank You.
Alex did a great job for installing blinds in my bathroom recently. He is polite and professional.
Shades offered a very good service from Alan’s measuring the size to Alex’s installation. Whenever I rang Shades to confirm the progress of the job, their receptionists both Lucy and Sam are friendly.
Magic service and product. Cannot rate them highly enough.
I recommend them to all my friends looking for these blinds.
They leave their competitors on the starting block!
I have just had my second lot of blinds installed and same excellence.
Very happy with my product! Especially grateful for the support from SHADES with the current supply chain issues. Big thank you!
Another wonderful experience with Shades. Quality service and installation. Highly recommended.
