Client Satisfaction
Wonderful service! Our 2nd story motorized blinds were super hard to access to change their
batteries. The Better Blinds team came out and figured out a great solution for us! They are
efficient and a pleasure to work with.
Great to deal with from beginning to end. Mark, Kate and their team were on the ball in a time when customer service is not always up front and centre. They return calls, show up when they say they will and return with a helpful hand whenever needed. Excellent business that showcases customer service which is much needed in businesses today!
We recently had a great experience when Better Blinds installed the blinds in our Condo. Service was professional and patient with us as we chose everything we wanted from their vast selection.
Community
& Philanthropy
For Mark and Kate, giving back isn’t a marketing slogan — it’s a core part of who they are and how Better Blinds & Drapery does business. As lifelong Windsor-Essex residents, they believe that a strong community is built when local businesses invest in the people who live here. Over the years, they’ve proudly supported dozens of organizations — from the Canadian Red Cross and Cystic Fibrosis Canada to the Windsor Spitfires Foundation and Make-A-Wish Canada. Each partnership reflects their belief that success means more when it’s shared. For Mark and Kate, community involvement isn’t just about writing cheques; it’s about showing up, lending a hand, and helping Windsor thrive — one good deed, and one window, at a time.

Do you have a showroom that I can visit?
Absolutely! We have a large, modern showroom that features the latest in window fashions! We’d love you to come visit and have a chat with us!
Where is your showroom located?
We’re on Howard Ave in Windsor, between E.C.Row and Edinburgh St.
Are you part of part of a chain?
You can only find us in Windsor, Ontario! We’re proudly local, independent, family owned and operated!
Do you offer appointments in my home or work?
Of course! While we do have a lovely showroom, many clients prefer to make the final selection from their home/office, because each product is made specifically for your windows. Therefore, it’s very important to check the fabric, style and operation. Because of the complexity of custom drapery, we almost always complete the order in the client’s home/office.
How long is a typical shop at home appointment?
Typical appointments with our designer are approximately an hour in length; however, it all depends the needs of the client. Some clients are very sure of what they’re looking for or are only covering a room, and others have just purchased or built a new home and are looking for extensive design assistance. Let us know what you’re considering and we’ll build the experience around you.
Is there a charge for a shop at home appointment?
Not at all! Working within the custom service world is a much different experience than big box ready-made products. We recognize that an appointment with our designer is a crucial step in the decision-making process; therefore, it’s just business as usual for us!
