jgregorie · January 2007

hey

i need some serious help. I had a cheap blind form target installed in my bedroom, but unfortunately i had to install it into my ancient plaster wall and now its starting to fall out after a years worth of wear and tear.

can anybody recommend a place that will make and install custom blinds in brooklyn? i own my apartment so im willing to spend some money.

thanks

Make sure you hire a black Midwestern Lutheran: they know all about that sort of thing.

We dealt with Pintchik on Flatbush and Bergen for our blinds, very helpful, great blinds, nice people, not the quickest re installation - maybe 'cos they're busy, which is a good thing, right? Definitely recommend them.

cool thanks

did they come to your place to install them? i swear if i just look at my plaster wall it starts to crumble, i really need a professional.

Got mine from Pintchik -- not speedy, but good selection -- they came & measured & icame back & installed for a fee as I didn't want to screw it up myself--measuring is harder than seems. One came in too short & they were very nice about replacing it.

This is a great juxtapostion to the "alright, dude, i can see your penis... (butler pl!)" string just above...and please, whatever you decide to do, take doctorj's advice! But just know that you have plenty of PH neighbors hoping you never find an answer to your posted question...

We got ours at Lowes. They contract out someone to measure and install. The guy really knew what he was doing. The blinds were shipped directly to our house... we just d to inspect them to make sure they all look okay. There was a problem with one of the blinds... but Lowes just shipped out a replacement, no questions asked.

We got ours from Pintchik as well. Just another vote in favor of them.

cool thanks pintchik it is

can you give me a ball park on how much you paid? for the blinds and installation.
i have just 2 windows that need blinds, they are both 34" wide x 72" high

im not looking for anything too fancy, just something clean and functional.
