Customer Reviews

Sara Skolaski

We recently had plantation shutters installed throughout our entire home by Solar Shield, and the experience was absolutely 5 stars from start to finish. Adam came out for the consultation and was incredibly knowledgeable - not only about the company’s products and installation process, but also about what design would truly complement our home’s style. He took the time to walk us through options, answer every question, and made us feel completely confident in our decision. Communication was seamless the entire way through, and he really emphasized their company’s commitment to customer satisfaction - and they absolutely stand behind that promise. The finished product has completely elevated our home. We couldn’t be happier with the quality, the service, and the overall experience. I can’t recommend Solar Shield enough!

Sherilyn Weaver

Great experience! Adam was awesome. He showed us all the options, helped select the perfect color, and price was reasonable. In about 3 weeks, he came back and installed 13 shades in an hour. We love the cellular shades! Keeps house much warmer in winter. Highly recommend Solar Shield.

Geri O'Neill

Adam is extremely professional and gave excellent advice as to what would be best for our room. He was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. He was quick and efficient with the removal of our old window treatments and installation of our new ones. We are extremely pleased and will be using Solar Shield for our remaining windows.

Great to work with Adam on our 9 foot wide window. He helped us choose a great powered shade that fits perfect. Really like solar shield order process, quoted same day as measure. Scheduling with office personnel was easy, and quick to respond.
