**★★★★★ — Nancy Singer, Jan. 2018**

> Even before we started building the house, I attended a home show where Blazeks had a huge display.  Having had blinds in our old house, I had an idea of what didn't work so well for us and started asking them questions.  I was blown away by the expertise and thorough knowledge of their products and willingness to work to customize just what would work well for us.  When the house was built, I didn't even think about going anywhere else.  I called and Harold came out and spent the better part of the day helping us choose what would work best for the 42 windows and 2 sliding glass doors in this house.  He helped us choose the right colors, light opaqueness and power controls for the individual rooms based upon their purpose and use.  The blinds were delivered when promised.  Harold and Marilyn came to install them, and they couldn't have been more professional, yet warm and engaging.  We love what Harold helped us purchase.  I feel as though they became friends in the process as they really wanted what was best for us.  I would recommend them highly.

**Comment from Blazeks Home Furnishings:**

> Thank you so much for your very nice review, It was a pleasure working with you and we will see you soon.
> And always if we can help in the future we would be happy to.
> Thanks again
> Marilyn and Harold

**★★★★★ — betsyshilo, June 2016**

> After first shopping at a big box blind store, I called the Blazeks for an estimate.  Their pricing was comparable & their customer service was top notch..Harold called to say he was running late & arrived when he said he would.  Installation was flawless.  The Blazeks are true professionals.

**★★★★★ — Jo Marie Gagala, May 2016**

> It could not have gone better.  They arrived early to our home and worked until the job was complete.  They explained the products to me and demonstrated how everything worked to my satisfaction.
> We spoke to Harold at a home show and he was quite informative.  It was such a pleasure to have the person you talk to, be the one to measure, discuss, suggest and then come out to install.   Ons stop shopping for sure!!!
> The price was fair and the products fantastic.  Our home looks beautiful, they were very neat and very considerate to our home.  They left nothing behind, and we cannot wait to work with them once again
> Thank you Harold and Marilynn Blazek

> Description of work:
> Harold and Marilyn were fantastic.  Harold did it all, came promptly to our home to measure, discuss and actually provided pricing on the spot.  He offered suggestions and was just awesome.  Came today to install, he and Marilyn did an awesome job.  Our home looks fantastic, his suggestions and ideas were great for our home, our family and our needs.  They were a pleasure to work with and the price was right.  This work was done in our Lake home and everything just works with the environment.  I cannot wait to work with them again in our primary home.  Thank you Harold and Marilyn!!

**★★★★★ — malcpnmmm, Dec. 2015**

> Harold and Marilyn Blazek are very knowledgeable about the Hunter Douglas products that they well.  We had them install blinds on all of our windows.  Harold was very patient with his measuring and then the installation of the products.  I asked Marilyn to come visit to give me ideas on what to do with an upstairs bedroom window that we wanted a room-darkening shade installed on.  She designed a beautiful cornice which is covered with padding and a beautiful material to match our bedroom comforter set.
> Very professional and they truly believe in what they do!!! Would recommend them to anyone.

**Comment from Blazeks Home Furnishings:**

> Thank you so much for you review. I have posted 4 pictures of your window under the cornices heading.

**★★★★★ — stoutenhoofd, May 2015**

> My husband and I bought window coverings from Blazek's Home Furnishings a few years ago.  We bought Hunter Douglas window coverings, as well as a drape for our patio door.  We were so satisfied with the results that we asked them back again to purchase drapes, cornices,  and matching bedspreads for two of our bedrooms.  Again, we are more than satisfied with the quality of their installations of the window shades, cornices, and drapes.  Marilyn Blazek was extremely helpful with bringing drapery samples and helping me select fabric for the drapes, cornices, and bedspreads.  Harold Blazek installed everything within a few hours and left no mess behind.  My husband and I could not be more satisfied with their work and professionalism.  Needless to say, we highly recommend Blazek's Home Furnishings to anyone who plans on buying new window coverings.

## Community Q&A

**Q: what is the louver size of the shutters in this photo ?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the louver size of the shutters in this photo ?

A: This is a 2 1/2&quot; louver by Hunter Douglas

**Q: best place / suggested quotes for shutters for our windows please!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Hi we are interested in buying window shutters for 3 windows: 
Downstairs: 150 x 105
Upstairs (1/2 window): 82 x 105 (2 windows) 
Is this something you can help with? What would an indicative cost be?

A: Hi Tom
Please give me a call for an approximate price at 847-844-9944
Thank you

**Q: my window frames are dark Frey on the exterior and pale cream on the I** *(in Photo Questions)*

My window frames are dark grey externally and soft cream internally / I would like to use shutters on the front window - what color should I choose ???

A: I would stand back and look at the entire exterior colors. Then stand inside the house and look at the entire color of the room. I would guess that the more neutral color will be the soft creme. 
What are the colors of the other window treatments facing the exterior of the house. Most coverings such as honeycomb shades use a white color for exterior to keep the exterior neutral.
Some neighbor hoods have rules that all coverings are white or very light creme to the exterior.
Hope this helps. Any other questions feel free to call me at 847-844-9944.
Thank you
Marilyn Blazek

**Q: bay window** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love the shades. Our bay window looks identical, yet we were told those shades would not work because the top of the shades would stick out past the wall. Do you know why this wasn't an issue for you?

A: We are master installers that both sell, measure, and install....It does make all the difference in the way the product looks when it is finished. If we can help you please call 847-844-9944.

**Q: What is the vane size in this photo?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: These veins are 4 1/2 inch veins with a rear tilt

**Q: What is the best size shutters for Franch doors in living room** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the best size shutters for French doors in large living room with high ceilings

A: The shutters are a nice answer to sleek clean look. They do not require any addition fabric treatment around them to make them look finished.
The shutters we used are Faux finished so they can be wiped with a damp cloth and they also have a rear tilt bar so they are easier to wipe and will not break.
