Blinds Galore & More is the only team you need to call for your window treatment needs. We shopped around at all the local and big box stores in the Venice, Florida area. None of them can compare to the service and attention we received from, Kathy and Rick. They were our last call, but wish they had been our first. The whole process, from their first visit to the final installation, was seamless. Choosing the right treatment for your home can be overwhelming and exhausting, but Kathy and her team made this experience relaxing and enjoyable. We are so happy with her recommendations! The plantation shutters and Hunter Douglas blinds we chose have transformed our home. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We are beyond ecstatic on how Kathy completed the tropical plantation oasis we envisioned for our brand new dream house. From the initial estimate to the final installation, she and her team ensured that our satisfaction was seen through in the entire process. Which wasn’t easy given me and my husband are very particular with details (and very hard to please indeed lol). Their product speaks for itself, its quality speaks for itself, and having seen it for myself Kathy really stands by her product. 14 windows, one slider, on time, and on budget - truly a great job Kathy and your team. We’re sure to cherish this fabulous addition to our home for a lifetime!FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!

We had chosen Blinds Galore because of all the great reviews and I have to say they went well beyond our expectations. We wanted plantation shutters for our new home and they look beautiful. From the first meeting to the last one we were provided with exceptional service and the installation went very smoothly. We are very happy we found Blinds Galore and would recommend their services to anyone.

We are extremely satisfied with our purchase! We were building a new home and wanted Plantation Shutters. Our project manager recommended Blinds Galore and More and we contacted them. Kathy worked with us throughout the process and was always in contact with updates. Product was installed on time, professionally done – they were neat, clean and even gave us a tutorial on use and care. The shutters are beautiful and very high quality! Made in the USA of the finest quality materials. I highly recommend this family owned and operated business. Thank you, Kathy and Rick! You guys helped us make our new house a HOME!

I am so thankful that I found Kathy. She held my hand and helped me get out of an unfortunate disaster with another window company. Because of her caring personality she went above and beyond for a stranger who called needing guidance. Once I was able to resolve my issues with other business Kathy and her husband Rick helped me get the proper window treatments which are perfect for my home. After waiting almost 6 months for window treatments, my order from Blinds Galore were installed under 30 days of ordering!!!! And they’re perfect! Rick and Charlotte were here at the exact time they told me, and so professional/efficient. I will tell everyone about Blinds Galore! They are more than just a business, they certainly care about people. Love you guys!

We called and Kathy and Rick came to our house even before we moved in. Gave us a quote which was reasonable. They were highly efficient and were able to get our plantation shutters in 2 weeks. Others were saying months. Installation went beautifully. Rick did the installation on time and was in and out quickly. We love the look and the obvious quality. We love the fact the plantation shutters are manufactured locally, too!

First of all, Kathy Brown is great. She explains everything in detail. She works with a great team and they are wonderful. All of her materials are made in the USA. My shutters are gorgeous and I love them. The vertiglide on my sliding door is magnificent. You can tell by the workmanship that Kathy, her husband, and her team love what they do. We are very happy.

Absolutely a great and beautiful addition to our home. Excellent and well made shutters transformed the house completely. Great customer service. Very knowledgeable and professional installation. I will be doing business again with them for other products in my home and will refer as many people as I can to do business with them. I am greatly satisfied....1000%👌😃

Kathy, Rick and the Blinds Galore & More team are exceptional! We found them online and after reading all of the rave reviews, we called them shortly after moving to FL. Although yes, we did spend more than we originally planned, we are confident that made the right decision. Not only are the shutters great quality and made in the USA, but the attention to detail when installing them are unlike any other business. The shutters were ordered and installed within two weeks, and our house looks so beautiful! There was one small mix-up on the sidelights, but they ordered replacements without question or hesitation, and they were installed with no additional charge. They truly stand behind their work, and we couldn’t be happier! We will use Blinds Galore & More again in the future and we are truly grateful to Kathy, Rick and their team!!

Our new plantation shutters are wonderful! Kathy, Rick and the crew were so wonderful to work with. The product is top quality and the installation was done top notch. The shutters are so well made that they almost completely block out the Florida sun if you are trying to sleep in or take an afternoon nap (we retirees need these, lol) If you are looking for a company that knows their stuff look no further. I have a background in construction and would say that they are the best!

We have used other local companies but Kathy and Rick are the best. We’ve never experienced any other company that goes above and beyond like they do. We have used them for plantation shutters and just used them again for privacy screens. They had our shutters in right after we moved in. And then when we decided on the privacy screens the turn around time was very fast. And our house was cleaner than when they got here! I can’t say enough about Kathy, Rick, and their team. They are professional, friendly, and will do whatever they can to please. They also have quality products. We will never use anyone else. Thank you Kathy, Rick, and team!

Review №16

After shopping for new shutters online and big box hardware stores, I was never happy with the price and overwhelmed by options and concerned what selections would be the best fit. After one year of debating this, I called Kathy and was immediately convinced that I needed her expertise. This is an expensive treatment and one mistake would cost me hundreds of dollars. Kathy quoted me a ballpark, which of course, was higher than the dot com shutters, but it wasnt unreasonable. Especially considering they would be expertly installed and any mistake would fall on her. She showed me samples of extremely well made composite shutters and knew exactly what frame would be best. BTW--I would have picked wrong making an online selection. The shutters came one week later which online was 6-12 weeks. They are beautiful and look twice the cost. They make the rooms gorgeous. The installation was expert and perfect in every detail. We are doing three more bedrooms just because I feel they add tremendous value to my home. Worth every penny, dont make the mistake I almost did by ordering online. Get it right the first time.

We are as thrilled with Kathy & Rick as we are with our Plantation Shutters and Vertiglides meticulously installed today. We had read multiple company online reviews before making our free estimate appointments with 3 different businesses. From our initial call we knew Kathy could not and would not be out done. We more or less just got out of the way as Kathy & Rick walked through our home measuring and deciding what would function best, and also enhance what we wanted, and what fit best with our home decor and lifestyle. Not only did we have an estimate in hand before they walked out the door, but Kathy & Rick also shared a plethora of helpful information about the community we had just moved into. We were confident in Kathys knowledge of window treatments, the products construction, pricing, and the installation process. When I say meticulously installed I mean, Rick & assistant Charlotte, laid down padding to protect our floor, vacuumed all drill fragments, wiped off each panel on each shutter, used a flashlight to check for any flaws....., and completely finished up in an amazingly brief time! We have nothing but rave reviews for Blinds Galore And More, Kathy & Rick (& Charlotte)!

I was overwhelmed with different ideas on window treatments but Kathy came in and in less than an hour solved all my issues and now my new house is finally a “home”!!

I had a great experience with the Blinds Galore Team. After building and moving into our new home in Venice, I called Blinds Galore to get a quote on installing plantation shutters in all the windows...I spoke with Kathy the owner. She was extremely helpful and very responsive to my request. She came over the same day, measured my windows, made suggestions and gave me a quote. We agreed agreed on the price and the estimated time of installation and everything went as promised. Rick and Charlotte were very professional and precise with the installation and the explanation of the proper use and care of the shutters. I can highly recommend this company, with confidence, for all your window treatments.

I had a great experience with Blinds Galore and More. The company is customer service focused and has a very warm family vibe. Kathy has a great eye and quickly helped me make decisions for several window and door openings. The custom shutters for the eyebrow curved window pictured here are so beautiful (the pelican loves them too). They hold out heat and sun or open at any desired angle to let in the natural light. The room darkening shades recommended for sliders are also beautiful and easy to open and close at desired levels of light and privacy. Rick did an amazing and quick job on perfect installation of these very different treatments, and his assistants Charlotte and Diane were also wonderful. Amazing how the right window coverings really transform a house into a home. It was surprising to me too that a full service small company like this one still exists in a cookie cutter world. Thank you Kathy and Rick and Charlotte and Diane!

We just moved and had no window treatments. At our previous house Blinds Galore and More installed plantation shutters in the whole house. We were so pleased with the prompt and courteous service that it was only natural that we would call them again. Yesterday they installed shutters in the new location. They were prompt and cleaned up again so completely. I would highly recommend using them and would call them a third time if we were to ever move again.

I recently purchased my living room blinds from Kathy and Rick Brown at Blinds Galore and More. Having only seen only a sample of the blind material, I put my trust in them when they said the Hunter Douglas products are exceptional. Well, I have to say the end product is absolutely beautiful. It literally completes my living room! Kathy knows her stuff. I highly recommend her company and Hunter Douglas!

Had such a wonderful experience working with Kathy and Rick. My shutters are so beautiful and Kathy suggested a vertical honeycomb shade for my patio door. I was a little skeptic, but I absolutely love it. Kathy has a flair for interior design so, her ability to help you select the perfect products for your home is such a plus.Also, Kathy is an avid dog lover which I love because I have two dogs of my own. Rick is such a gem and was really good with the installation of my shutters and shade. If you’re looking for new window coverings and a company with great customer service...look no further call Blinds Galore and More.

Extremely satisfied with our purchase! We were in the market for Plantation Shutters. They came to our house within 24 hours, took the measurements, gave us the quote on the spot (very fair pricing) and they were installed within 1 week! They even installed temporary window coverings for free so that we werent living in a fish bowl while waiting for our new shutters. The shutters are beautiful and very high quality! Made in the USA of the finest quality materials. Great craftsmanship and dust free! If youre in the market for any type of window covering, I highly suggest skipping the big box stores and letting this family owned and operated business meet your needs! Thanks Kathy and Rick! You guys make a great team!

I did my homework...I questioned a lot of companies and researched a lot of products. So many are made in China, made of cheap plastic or hollow. Some companies advertise major brands and then come out with inferior substitutes. I asked all the right questions and, in the end, Blinds Galore was the best product and the price was extremely fair. Installation was flawless and Im confident that I made a great decision. Thanks Kathy for all your help!! I know that I was a bit of a pest with all my questions but you had all the right answers. Buying a true Made in America product from a family run business is the best. Oh, and by the way...they installed in 10 days!!

Review by Beth Jones-We are new residents in the area and knew we wanted plantation shutters due to the mostly western orientation of all the windows in our villa. But who should we buy them from? After reading ALL the reviews online, it was overwhelmingly apparent that Blinds Galore was the winner, hands down. And from my first conversation on the phone with Kathy, I understood why. It is a DELIGHT when you have the opportunity to do business with someone who is not only EXCELLENT at what they do, but PASSIONATE about going above and beyond in service to their customers! From installing paper blinds at the measuring appointment, to coming back to measure an additional window after moving boxes were removed, to the very prompt delivery, to the meticulous installation and clean up by Rick and Diane, the customer service can’t be beat! PLUS all the local vendors and professionals that Kathy has recommended for other needed services is priceless. We are thrilled with the beauty and quality of our shutters, and our experience with this wonderful family business. So happy our paths crossed! Thank you Kathy, Rick, Charlotte and Diane!

We are new residents in Venice Florida and were not convinced to get plantation shutters vs drapes.A neighbor recommended to call Blinds Gallore and more in North Port for Lanai vertiblind.Cathy Brown and Rick her partner convinced us to get the plantation shutters in addition to the vertiblind.The house looks fantastic. We are so surprised how bright and open it looks to enjoy the beautiful sunsets.The manufacturer at the last minute found a defect in the trim we selected. Kathy fought for us and got an upgrade at no additional charge.The installation process with Diane and Rick was seemless. Exemplary customer service and the look changed our house. We would highly recommend Blinds Gallore and More in North Port and can see why they are preferred by most in our development.

I am so incredibly happy with Kathy and Rick!! I called and they were able to come out the same day. Kathy was very honest about what would work best with my windows/doors and since I have pets, made recommendations according to them. Everything took a week to get installed but there was a holiday and likely would have been even sooner! I was not expecting such quick service. Rick is so sweet, I work night shift and had my mother over so he could install the shutters and have someone awake. He kept my room for last and has zero issue with my schedule. I found an imperfection and gave them a call. The same night, I received a message saying they would be there to repair it almost next day. I would recommend them to everyone for many reasons and I’m so very thankful for everything they did!!

Very impressed with Kathy Browns (sales) professionalism, and Ricks installing and his helpers. The solar lanai roll up shades match all perfectly. You can see out but not inon their #3. So glad I took her advice and not some of my other estimates who were trying to suggest another color different from more than likely my HOA. Also the others stated it would be 4-6wks when since these are made here in America plus the screens are sturdier and delivery was 1 week! Impressive. I definitely recommend them. Rita P.

Review №66

Blinds Galore is absolutely the best business in this area to head to anytime you’re in the market for plantation shutters. I know they do a lot more than just shutters, but I can only speak from my specific product experience. We could have gone anywhere else and purchased the less expensive “Made in China” shutters, but opted for the quality solid louvers and frames made in the USA would provide us with. We love the added ambiance and style the new shutters have given our home and could not be more satisfied.Major home improvement purchases require significant product research, reliance on word-of-mouth testimonials, local references, and occasionally just plain good luck with finding a great business to work with.When I am searching for somewhere to do business, I expect three very important areas to be addressed:1. Product: I look for quality before quantity and always opt for the best within my price range.2. Installation: There is an expectation of efficiency and skilled workmanship devoid of flaws or camouflaged mistakes.3. Customer Service both pre-sale and post installation is critical and often very elusive in this day and age. This is perhaps the most important area of all since a business with great customer service will almost invariably install a quality product they can stand behind.I am never spent this much time giving a review, but when it comes to product, installation, and customer service, Blinds Galore is impeccable. If I could give Kathy and Rick Brown more than a five star rating, I would.

Kathy and her crew were wonderful to work with. Her attention to detail was great! She gave good honest opinions based on what she has seen before and based on her eye for knowing what will look perfect! Some other places, it seemed, would tell you only what you wanted to hear and I feared that with those approaches the project would turn out fine instead of fabulous! Also Kathys patience and wanting you to be happy before the ordered was made also topped others. Definitely recommend Blinds Galore to family and friends, and anyone else out there looking for blinds!

So grateful for Kathy and Rick! We had plantation shutters, solar shades and vertiglides installed in our home. Everything exceeded our expectations. They are beautiful! Rick made sure each window treatment was perfectly installed, worked properly and explained how to operate and care for them. Kathy’s recommendations for types of treatments and color were spot spot on! This was a big job that was stress free for us. Kathy went above and beyond and helped us with an issue we had been dealing with. I can not thank her enough. I highly recommend Blinds Galore and More for the best possible experience. Save time and trouble and go directly to them for all your window treatments.

Awesome company to do business with. We purchased plantation shutters from them and love the look they give our condo. They dont simply sell you a product and thats the end of the story.

I wouldnt hesitate to use them again should the need arise.

We are new to the area so needless to say, we did some shopping around for our window treatments. We love to deal with local business owners so we called Blinds Galore and More. We were immediately impressed with Kathys knowledge and experience in her field. We also love that the installation is done by Rick. Nothing like a family owned business who sells the product and installs it as well. Reputation is everything to Kathy and Rick. We are pleased with their professionalism and their perfectionism. So glad that we came across each others paths.

Review №73

We recently bought a new home. I was referred to Kathy at Blinds Galore and More by my friend who was very happy with her plantation shutters and vertiglide blinds. Kathy was very helpful by answering my questions about plantation shutters, so I scheduled a meeting. Her and Rick came to our home after i needed to cancel our first appointment at the last minute due to a medical issue. They brought their samples and described the quality in the products she sold. We were very happy and placed an order. Kathy suggested we cover our windows as we were leaving town and placed paper covers up until our shutters arrived. They hung our shutters when we were out of town, and knowing how excited we were to see them, sent us many pictures as they were installed. Two products that arrived were not up to Kathys standards, so she promptly returned them and had replacements installed when we were back home. Rick and his helper were here to install the rest. They installed them, and were quick to make sure everything was perfect! They then made sure to clean up anything left behind in the install. We are extremely happy with the quality and all of Kathys service. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering shutters. Oh wait, I already did refer them to friends who have also ordered from Kathy. She is great!

Kathy & Rick make sure everything is as requested and done right. Kathy has a good eye and listens to our visual goals and desired quality. When something wasn’t quite right she sent it back and quickly replaced to our specification. The additional gem on the team is Claudio, the tech wizard, who installed the wired motorized Duette shades quite nicely and got everything set up and walked us through the options for the app!Now I can tell Siri it’s morning or press a button on my watch and I’m all set!

Review №76

Impossible is not in Kathy’s vocabulary. My husband and I were convinced we’d have to settle with plain window coverings (or nothing at all) in our mid century modern home that has a combination of jalousie windows and hurricane doors that are difficult to deal with. Within minutes of meeting Kathy and Rick I knew our worries were over. Kathy listened to our wishes and came up with a custom design using shutters and blinds that look beautiful in our home. Our order was placed, delivered and installed quickly and Kathy has been incredible about following up making sure everything is just right. I am so pleased with my experience and would recommend Kathy, Rick and their team of experts to anyone!

Contacted Company because of the reviews. I was not disappointed. Kathy and Rick are a pleasure to work with. Kathy helped a lot in picking proper window coverings for the type of home I have, she said that I would not be disappointed and I would have a WOW opinion when completed. She was spot on, Rick is very meticulous on installation and they kept everything so clean. Very responsive, respectful and very customer oriented. I look forward to ordering several other window coverings and I would only choose Blinds Galore and More.

Kathy and Rick are truly wonderful and genuine people! They both have helped us transition to the Venice area in countless ways. We consider them friends and deeply value all they have done for us! Our first introduction to Kathy and Rick began with the absolutely beautiful plantation shutters they installed in our new home. They made sure everything was ready the very first day we moved in. They took care of it all...measuring, ordering, and installation with great efficiency and professionalism! I can honestly say that their work was flawless in every way....wish we could say that about every other aspect of our move!!We highly recommend Kathy and Rick not only as an amazing business team, but as people who go above and beyond in ways that we will long remember!

We are so very happy to have contracted with Kathy to install Vertiglides on our two sets of sliders in our new home! Kathy is so knowledgeable and personable. She helped us select the perfect product. Her installation team Rick and Charlotte are exceptional. They make sure the job is done to perfection. Excellent communication throughout. Will be using Kathy again when we are ready for some Plantation shutters.😊

I just had Blinds Galore & More install a Plantation Shudder in my master bathroom. It is an unusual size window and I contacted 3 other companies who all said it could not be made. I saw an advertisement for Blinds Galore and More and decided to try one last time. I spoke with Kathy who was knowledgeable and professional and said she could do it. She arranged for Rick her husband to come over to my home that afternoon and measure more accurately the window and showed me various options. Less than a week later I have my Plantation Shutter installed and I am completely satisfied. I have already and will continue to recommend Kathy and Rick of Blinds Galore & More...

This is the second time I have used this vendor in two years. Great response in coming out to measure us up for blinds and shutters. Had some real good solutions to some of our problems. Ordered plantation shutters this time and they came in only ten days. They installed them today and did an outstanding job. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.

My wife Val and I worked with Kathy Brown and her team from Blinds Galore and More LLC. Kathy helped us make perfect selections for our new home in Venice, FL. The price was right and the products and installation were exceptional and on time. We love our purchase. Our Hunter Douglas blinds are wonderful -- perhaps our favorite feature in our new place.More importantly, Kathy Brown, I presume as a result of her fine reputation, helped us in so many ways well beyond our dealings with Blinds Galore and More. For example, when our closing on our new home was delayed at the last minute without warning, and our furniture truck arrived for delivery from PA, we were in a real jam. Kathy Brown made quick work of resolving our dilemma, not the least of which was magically securing six air conditioned storage units for our furniture until we could secure an occupancy permit.Val and I would recommend Kathy Brown and Blinds Galore in a heartbeat. She is so connected, extremely conscientious and genuinely helpful, and a friend for life. Thank you Kathy!Dave Straight (and Valerie)

Great company! Kathy and Rick were both great! My plantation shutters were made in the USA and they look wonderful. The shutters were installed quickly and they left my home spotless! If you need window treatments give Blinds Galore and More a call, you wont be disappointed.

Kathy and Rick visited the house and quickly gave suggestions for window treatments that would work with the house. We told them what we wanted and figured out what worked best. They promptly ordered the treatments and set up the installation. We actually made some changes which they took care of immediately. Rick installed the shutters and veriglides quickly. We even ordered another window to have shutters installed. No problems. Great job.

Stop right here! You do not need to look any further for the best quality, the best service, and the best installation. Kathy, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and very punctual. Kathy will be with you from start to finish, and she always uses top quality products. Do yourself a big favor and call Kathy for an estimate.

We had a great experience with Blinds Galore and More located in the North Port area. Kathy and Rick Brown came to our house on the day we called to give us an estimate on Vertiglide blinds. The blinds arrived exactly on the date promised, Rick and Charlotte did a great job on the install. From estimate through installation, all was very professionally done. The entire team was great to work with and we love the blinds! At a time when good customer service is not always part of the buying experience, Kathy, Rick and Charlotte exceeded expectations!

Called companies to get estimates on curtains for my parents house new construction was very hesitant to commit, my wife saw a billboard on 41 heading towards Venice, I called the number and met with Kathy right away, she gave me an estimate right away, was very happy with it, ended up doing my own house as well. Excellent customer service and excellent product & prices. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

We bought a vacation home in Gran Paradiso & wanted to do window treatment that were maintenance free & gave us a Florida feel. I called Blinds Galore & More because of passing their billboard on 41 several times a day! Up until this point I gotten estimates & ideas from other companies but looking at least 4-6 weeks for installation & still not sure what I wanted. When Kathy came out it was an easy decision to go with plantation shutters throughout the whole house, they are USA made, dust repellent, maintenance free, look great & could be installed in 2 weeks! That was a real plus! They were right on schedule, very professional couldnt believe how Rick & the gals worked as a team. They inspected each shutter with a small light to make sure no marks or flaws before they left. Also Kathy recommended the Hunter Douglas vertical slider for doors to lanai & they had installer from that company do it. Knowing we were new to the state & area she sent us list of everything we could ever want from restaurants, doctors, etc,etc,etc!! Kathy & Rick are very caring people. We are sooo happy with our choice. Karon & Terry Dean

Very happy with the entire process. All my questions were answered during the 1st visit and some good suggestions were made by Kathy. After our decision to proceed Kathy and her husband Rick returned for some final measurements. We were told the date the shutters would be here for installation and they were here as promised. Rick and his helper Brian arrived right as scheduled for installation. They were very professional, skilled, extremely tidy and friendly. The installation went smoothly and quickly., Were totally delighted with their work as the Plantation Shutters in our Florida home look great. From beginning to end a job well done by Blinds Galore and More. I highly recommend them.

We had a great experience working with Kathy and Rick Brown at Blinds Galore and More and couldn’t be happier with the results.Kathy’s wealth of knowledge of the industry, products and materials helped guide us to the right product, dimensions and color. Then Rick took over the measuring of each window and we could tell right away how meticulous he is.We were pleased to learn that our shutter materials were manufactured in the USA and built right here in Venice, FL. If anything had gone wrong (which it didn’t) a fix would be just minutes away, not weeks.The installation went like clockwork. Again Rick’s craftsmanship, along with his assistant Charlotte, and their attention to detail resulted in a perfect fit and everything left as neat as when they arrived.Pricing was fair and within our budget. We highly recommend working with Kathy and Rick at Blinds Galore and More.

Kathy and Rick at Blinds Galore and More were both friendly and professional -from the first time we met when discussing window covering options for our home, to the day of installation when the job was complete. Kathy helped my husband and I with (much appreciated) design advice and Rick was able to get our shutters installed within two weeks! Kathy even called once installation was complete to be sure we were happy with the product. My husband and I always try to support small local businesses, and for being a small company, Blinds Galore and More can beat any competitors customer service and price. It was a genuine pleasure working with Blinds Galore and More, and I highly recommend the company to anyone looking to install blinds or shutters in their home.

Team Galore and More, led by power couple Kathy and Rick Brown create one memorable experience after another with your purchase. First priority, they show up on time. Kathy grew up learning from her father who was in the industry and has tremendous experience along with a decorators eye. Rick, her husband is an engineer. He is meticulous as engineers are when measuring, installing and assuring the work is finished to perfection. When my plantation shutters were completed, Charlotte ( one of their exceptional employees), tidied my bed, turned on lights and created the ambiance to show me the shutters. Now who does this? The delivery and installation dates were met as promised as were my vertiglides today. I was notified timely when they were arriving. Kathy and Rick communicate and text frequently to assure you are satisfied or require anything further. They are so polite and stand behind their craftsmanship. Lastly, we are new to the area, so Kathy put together a list of shops, Doctors, restaurants for all new residents to acclimate smoothly to this area. Now thats going above and beyond. My experience was the best to date. Thank you so much Dream Team Galore and More!
