A local, family-owned business backed by the No. 1 provider of custom window coverings in North America might just be the perfect pairing. Add a comprehensive, locally fulfilled warranty, exceptional customer service and industry relationships that ensure a wide range of styles, features and price points, and you've really got an ideal match.
In short, you've got Budget Blinds serving Ridge Meadows, Surrey, New Westminster and Tri-cities.
And while "budget" might be in the name, the truth is, you'll find options in virtually every price point and style.
"We like to follow a 'good, better, best' philosophy," explains Clay Tierney, who with wife Lacey owns Budget Blinds. "If you have a specific budget, we'll find the best products for your home and needs within that budget."
Key to that is the partnerships the company has with its vendors – including some who only work with Budget Blinds, Clay notes. The result is a wide selection that allows you to find the right style, material and price point for your home and family's needs, whether you're looking for options to bring better sleep, enhance your home comfort, or simply modernize with style.
In fact, it's safe to say that if you haven't purchased new window blinds, shades, shutters or draperies, for some time, the options might surprise you – why it's always good to book a free, in-home consultation.
Innovation & style
Beyond aesthetic changes, automation and motorization are really behind today's innovations, letting you quickly and easily control your blinds and window coverings through a smartphone app or remote control. There are even retrofit options for existing blinds you love – a great way to get rid of cords that pose a choking hazard for children and pets. Other innovations have come in blinds that help keep your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter, enhancing your home's energy efficiency and reducing your heating bills!
For Lacey and Clay, the opportunity to work with local families to create an inviting, beautiful and functional home is a rewarding enterprise – a passion reflected loud and clear in numerous five-star reviews commending the quality of both their products and service, from initial consultation to installation to follow-up.
And that follow-up is an essential part of the Budget Blinds package, Clay notes. "We offer a full five-year replacement warranty on all our products, no questions asked – that's pretty unheard of," he says. "On motorized components, the warranty is seven years and it's a local, '604' number you call. We take care of everything."
As local business owners, the Tierneys and their team extend that philosophy into the community at large. Committed to giving back, close to home, initiatives include various event sponsorships, plus fundraising commitments for local food hamper programs and BC Children's Hospital, a cause close to their hearts after their youngest child experienced their expert care, Clay notes.
If it's time to bring out the best in your home – and through Sept. 30, you can even get 30 per cent off faux wood and vertical blinds!
