What Our Customers Are Saying About Shades In Place

I recently worked with Roger on shades for two rooms as well as a large drapery installation. Roger was amazing and the process was very smooth. I am extremely happy with my shades and this installation.

S. Munroe

Roger installed plantation shutters for us 8 years ago, and I gave him a 5-star review at the time because the quality of his work was exceptional, and we loved the shutters. We recently had an issue and Roger came right away to resolve it. He’s so dedicated to making sure his customers are 100% happy and I could not recommend him more highly!

J. Owens

Cannot recommend Roger’s work enough. I did not even think shutters would be an option for my space but I’m glad he came to our initial meeting prepared with thoughts and ideas. He was efficient, and extremely professional. I am in love with the end product.

A. Plakias

Roger and his assistant were prompt and professional and completed the installation of our many large paintings, framed photos, and acrylic photos quickly and skillfully. Below are just a few examples of Roger and his assistant’s work. Many of our paintings and photos were extremely large and very heavy, and something we wanted a professional to take care of. I will be calling Roger again for another round of art and photo installation.

Shades IN Place has done it again! Our original project a year ago was bedroom Roman shades, but for this go round Roger and crew installed roller shades in my office, the den and garage. I would have vetoed roller shades based on what I remembered from my childhood – white, vinyl and faulty spring mechanisms. Roger showed us the light and the various options updated for todays style and durability. I wish I had more windows for Roger’s Shades In Place to dress.

Our new remote controlled Alta shades look AMAZING! The whole team was professional and made the process easy. My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner so we could have enjoyed more of the light blocking and energy savings over the summer. Will definitely be a repeat customer if we decide to redo shades in other rooms.

**UPDATE** Our home builder caused damage to one of our shutters while doing a warranty repair. I called Roger and he came right out and meticulously repaired the damaged shutter. You will not find better customer service than Roger and Shades In Place from any other provider. Just exceptional always. Steve G. - Lutz, FL This is my 2nd time utilizing Shades In Place, and I couldn't be happier. Roger is meticulous, with incredible attention to detail. The craftsmanship of my new home was not perfect, as the finished window boxes were not completely square, but Roger went to great lengths to ensure my new Plantation Shutters were installed perfectly and completely square. You will not find another installer who takes the time and care that Roger does to ensure a perfect install and a smooth & seamless project. Highly recommend. - Steve G. - Lutz, FL
We’ve worked with Shades in Place on several projects over a decade or so now. Their exceptional professionalism and quality of work is the reason I return (and will return) to them time and time again. Thanks, team!

I have used Shades In Place for all of the windows in my home. They have helpful and creative ideas for windows and especially for my slider out to my deck. If there is an issue with any shade, Roger is quick to respond and resolve the matter. Highly recommend this company.

I had another (yes - we are repeat customers 4x now!) outstanding experience with this company and can’t recommend them highly enough. Several years after my original shade installation, one of my shades was damaged (direct sun exposure without movement for several years caused some minor drying/cracking). Not only did Shade In Place call me back within 24hrs of my reach out, they stood by the quality of their work, AND they also went above and beyond to help me get a replacement. They worked directly with the manufacturer and were able to secure a new shade for me at no cost, even after all that time had passed. Shades In Place’s commitment to supporting their customers is truly exceptional. It’s rare to find a company that stands behind its products with this level of integrity and follow‑through. The workmanship has always been top‑notch, and this experience proved just how much they value long‑term customer satisfaction. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality shades, shutters, and reliable service!

We recently had roller shades installed in our dining room and kitchen by Roger from Shades in Place, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. Roger was professional, responsive, and excellent with communication throughout the process. He even came to our home to help us select materials, which was incredibly helpful and accommodated our busy schedule. He kept us informed on the progress of our order and promptly scheduled installation as soon as the shades arrived. The installation itself was impeccable. Roger and his team were meticulous, kept the work area clean, vacuumed, and thoroughly cleaned up when the job was complete. They also took the time to explain how to operate and care for the shades, ensuring we were completely comfortable with the finished product. What truly sets Roger apart is how much he cares about his customers. He genuinely wants his clients to be happy with both the experience and the final result, and it shows in every aspect of his work. We absolutely love our new roller shades and highly recommend Roger and Shades in Place to anyone looking for quality products, exceptional service, and a seamless experience. We look forward to working with him again in the future!

I can’t say enough good things about Roger Magalhãe and his company Shades In Place Inc. Roger went out of his way to assist with a broken chain while he was on vacation. His customer service is truly exceptional. He is kind, reliable, and always willing to help. The products are excellent quality, and our family has been a loyal customer for the past 14 years for a reason. It’s rare to find this level of dedication and care anymore. Highly recommend!

If I could give them 6 stars, I would. I didn't know who to contact regarding some old, motorized shades that needed repair. While many companies did not return my call or were not interested in the project, Shades In Place Inc. undertook the job with aplomb. Not only were they a pleasure to work with, but their communication with me during the project was unparalleled. I cannot recommend them enough.
I have worked with Roger on multiple projects. He's amazing to work with because he follows up, returns emails and calls, and does what he says he's going to do. His work is top quality and customers are always happy with his finished treatments. He's a trusted partner and our go-to for any window treatment project. If I could give 10 stars I would!
This place is amazing!! I called this morning because after my tenants left I noticed that 2 of my Plantation Shutters were broken. My handyman had no idea how to fix them. I called and within a couple of hours he came out to take a look. When he saw what the problem was he fixed them right then and there. And you would not believe how little he charged. I would highly, highly recommend them.

The owner, Roger went above and beyond on this one. When an enexpected issue came up Roger was great when I had to put the job on hold. After we picked it up again, he came up from Florida to Massachusetts to do the install himself. Can’t recommend him enough. Thank you for a great job
