The Home Depot offers custom window treatment installation and blind installation.
The only drawback is customers have to pay a small fee to have old blinds removed and hauled away.
Returns are generally easy with Amazon, but each brand may have their own policy.
Customers can expect free shipping for most orders, as well as an option for professional installation.
I’d recommend this retailer particularly for easy, non-custom swaps if your current blinds are discolored or dusty.
Many retailers do put more return restrictions on custom items, in particular.
Theres no professional installation available, but the retailer offers an option to book a TaskRabbit assembly.
It features a mix of mid-range and high-end blinds.
The retailer has a lot of really fun designer co-ops, and great customer service.
There are also gorgeous toile-inspired blinds fromSheila Bridges.
The major caveat with this retailer is that it doesnt accept returns.
The website is intuitive, with straightforward options broken down by material and punch in.
Plus, there are hundreds of color and fabric choices, as well as smart shades with automation.
And for those looking for an alternative to blinds, it also offers a selection of wood shutters.
One drawback is that some options and styles are not available for online order.

Measurement and installation services are available.
Theres also a lifetime warranty on any blinds that are custom-made.
To find the right option for you, its key to consider a few traits of blinds and shades.
In addition, you may need to consider selections that apply more to the installation of the blinds.
Professional Installation and Measurements
When it comes to installing blinds, you have to be super precise.
For that reason, many retailers offer at-home consultation and measurement services.
Again, measurements are everything, so before ordering anything see to it youre precise in your calculation.
