He has a professional demeanor and works well with even the most demanding clients (me!). I had special blinds and Plantation style shutters and frames installed along with a special closet door constructed. **★★★★★ — beverleyjoan, June 2014** > I have had Jeff do a couple of jobs for me. > One was an unusual project which other companies said they did not know how to do or could not do. Jeff found the solution and completed the installation to my satisfaction. > His second project for me was more straightforward and he took care of it efficiently and with attention to problem solving and detail. > I would say that the edge that Jeff has is problem solving. > If you have an unusual job 'Go To Jeff'. **★★★★★ — karenhong801, May 2014** > It was a pleasure working with Jeff and his team at The Shutterman to get custom shutters and blinds for my new house. Jeff was extremely responsive and always returned my calls and emails in a timely manner. He carefully measured all the windows in the house and double-checked them all to make sure they were correct. Jeff was easy to work with, straightforward, honest and happy to answer all my questions. What I really appreciated is that he wasn't pushy at all and is clearly very informed about the products and installation. > > My custom shutters and blinds arrived about 6 weeks after the order was put in and were installed in a single day. I love my shutters!! Overall, my experience with The Shutterman was exceptional and I would highly recommend them if you are looking to get some custom window treatments. **★★★★★ — Carlene Gundersgaard, May 2014** > I hired Jeff right after I bought a 4 bedroom home last July. I saw what he did in my friend's condo and liked his work there. In a week's time, Jeff was out to measure and discuss my options. I selected shutters throughout this 4 bedroom home. It takes a few weeks for the order to arrive, but the install went without a hitch. The installers were friendly and very competent. After the install, they reviewed how to open and close the shutters for maximum protection of the shutters and my walls. It was a really pleasant experience and I recommend the Shutter Man without reservations. **★★★★★ — maxbrans, May 2014** > I have been using Jeff Lee, the Shutterman, to install and service shutters in my homes for over 15 years. From the initial installation of a few windows to shuttering the entire house, there was never an issue or even a momentary consideration to use another vendor. About one year ago, I hired Jeff to install shutters throughout a condo I purchased after selling the fully shuttered home in Foster City. I recommend the Shutterman most highly. > > Max G. Branscomb > May 21, 2014 **★★★★★ — minalubin, May 2014** > •Being in the trades myself I am very careful about hiring other trades people to do work especially when it’s for my son and daughter-in-law ! Jeff the Shutterman come out to give an estimate as did three others. Jeff was prompt, courteous, and very informative on the product. He went over various design options with us and was extremely patient through the process, as we ( they ) had a tough time making their decision. I expected the typical "pushy salesman" but was pleased he was not at all pushy. On top of this he knew and explained every aspect of installation. After placing the order I called Jeff and explained that we had forgotten that we wanted then installed a week earlier because of my grandsons’ First Communion. He thankfully moved his appointments around and made it happen. Beautiful shutters and professionally installed. If you want a first class shutter job Jeff the Shutterman should be at the top of your list. **★★★★★ — Builders-Services.com, May 2014** > Jeff was great. Easy to work with and worked around my schedule. We needed blackout shades for the the kids rooms and Jeff gave us options. Originally I thought I only wanted role shades because i didn't want cords in my 5 year old's room, Jeff gave me color match cordless honeycomb shades. We got and valances to match for my 10 year old and Disney characters for my 5 year old. We ended up getting shades and living room and he was able to used our fabric to match them to the cushions on the couch. ## Selected projects - [Shades](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shades-pj-vj~538961) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Patio Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/patio-shutters-pj-vj~957253) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Dining Room Shades](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-shades-pj-vj~957247) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Bedroom Shades](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedroom-shades-pj-vj~957246) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Aluminum Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/aluminum-shutters-pj-vj~538958) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Exterior Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/exterior-shutters-pj-vj~957254) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Custom Shades](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-shades-pj-vj~957248) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shutters-pj-vj~538974) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Cherry Wood Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cherry-wood-shutters-pj-vj~1058572) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Modern Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-shutters-pj-vj~1058552) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Living Room Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/living-room-shutters-pj-vj~957245) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Dark Wood Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dark-wood-shutters-pj-vj~957243) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Shutter Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shutter-projects-pj-vj~1058522) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Plantation Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/plantation-shutters-pj-vj~1058533) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Bedroom Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedroom-shutters-pj-vj~957241) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Custom Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-shutters-pj-vj~1020985) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Custom Shutter](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-shutter-pj-vj~1058511) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 [See all 17 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/window-treatments/the-shutterman-pfvwus-pf~470645661) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
