Pacific View Window Coverings

All the five star ratings are deserved. We wanted more privacy for our picture window. Problem was complicated by the blinds in place, as well as the crooked floor that old houses have. Mitch spent time with me figuring out a really lovely solution — I love the colors and the softness of the new look, as well as the privacy we wanted. Delivery team was great too. Mitch is the greatest!!!

Pacific View Window Coverings still has my back after all these years! I purchased shades in 2003. The motorised track has started to fail. The shades themselves are still in pretty good shape. Mitch came out and assessed the problem. We have a workable solution. My loyalty to this business is steadfast.

I wish every service company had a person like Mitch. He was super nice and very responsive with questions and emails. I highly recommend Pacific View for their customer service.
The strings of the roman shades in our apartment had broken, so our landlords handy man took them here. I am not sure if Pacific View had previous relations with the handy man, but Mitch took the initiative to work with him with my available times to install the repaired shades.
I am not entirely sure if their pricing is competitive ($ 330 for restringing one large and one small roman shade), but if you’re like me that likes to pay for convenience versus shopping for prices, this is the place, as Mitch will take care of you!

Mitch is very customer service oriented and I have been very pleased with his goal for customer satisfaction. My experience has been great with Pacific View Window Coverings.

Mitch was incredible, it was very easy working with him, he has a wonderful manner of suggesting ideas and clearly explaining different costs. Final product is exceptional.
SUPERB

All of the glowing reviews are absolutely true. Mitch is your man for window treatments.
My custom drapes were finally installed today, and I cannot be happier about how the entire process went. I recently moved into a new top-​floor unit with 16-​foot+ ceilings and floor-​to-​ceiling angled windows. I had some estimates for window treatments done prior to calling Mitch, and everyone definitely agreed it was going to be a challenge (and quite costly, to boot). Mitch came in initially for a free in-​home evaluation, and the estimate was more than competitive. Once I decided to move forward, he came back for detailed measurements and fabric selection (Mitch is a fountain of excellent design advice). He kept me updated while the fabric and hardware was out on order, and was always prompt and responsive via phone and email. Everything came in under schedule, and his installers were efficient, knowledgeable, and professional. Mitch came in the morning of the installation to get things started, and came back afterwards to inspect the final work. The drapes look fantastic. Mitch is a class act all the way. Don’t look any further!

Mitch gives A+ service and awesome decorating advice! After a large remodeling project we realized that we were late in thinking of window coverings prior to moving back home. After telling Mitch about our hopes of getting new drapes up prior to a housewarming/​charity event we were hosting in 7 weeks, Mitch made things happen on our tight time line. His installation guy was also very good.
We love our new window coverings. For the first time in my life, I have blackout drapes in the bedroom. It makes such a big difference in getting a good nights rest.
Custom drapes are always going to be more pricey than big box stores, and one has to be realistic about the cost of going custom. Mitch did try to work within our budget and overall, we are glad we went to Pacific View.
Thanks Mitch!!! You are AWESOME!!:)

Mitch just finished installing custom window treatments throughout our new home in San Francisco. We love them! The first thing I should say about Mitch is that he is extremely responsive, exceptionally professional and LOVES windows. He was always on time for our meetings and wrote frequently with updates regarding our timeline for installation etc. We’d never done custom window treatments before and he guided us through the process perfectly. He listened to us describe our taste, stayed within our budget, and gave great advice. One window in particular was very difficult to design for– he went out of his way to ensure that the arched window was covered perfectly and professionally (with a giant flat roman). We could not be happier with Mitch and Pacific View Window Coverings!

Wow, Mitch really is a great guy. I just called to ask about getting an estimate, and he was very helpful about giving advice on whether I even need custom blinds, as opposed to whether it was something I could handle myself. It’s pretty impressive to run across a business owner with the confidence to give a potential customer a complete picture of the options. I would always give my business to someone like Mitch because I feel like I can trust him now.

This is a caveat to Unilocalers that I don’t have much experience with window covering shops (unlike restaurants) – only three before contacting Pacific View Window Coverings who outperformed the rest. I usually stick with a good supplier, but my original window coverings firm moved farther down the peninsula and stopped servicing San Francisco. I was not very pleased with two others after that.
The last before this, a prominent store on Polk, provided a glib and affable salesman who recommended I go with a more expensive product because it was «made in USA» and would be ready 3 weeks earlier. After 2.5 months the only response I could get from the store was that it was at the mercy of the East Coast manufacturer and there was no ETA on my window coverings. After that, the shop’s installer, who was based in north Marin, did a good job, but left behind all the packaging and upset my remodeling contractor.
Not wanting to call that shop again I resorted to Unilocal.It was easy to find the favorite window covering shop in San Francisco. Although skeptical I made an appointment and Mitch, after phoning from his car to let me know he was within 10 minutes of my address, showed up with a heavy bag of samples. He did not carry the brand I had read about, but explained the differences – primarily that the other was for commercial use, bulkier and contracted in a different way. Mitch was able to address each of my concerns and brought up others I had not considered. My windows are aggregated in one wide band that faces east. I like the view and wanted to minimize blocking it. We discussed options for materials, insulation, colors and spacing and he talked me out of my preference for greater transparency.
I was concerned when Mitch explained that he would not be involved in the installation. That reminded me of the previous firm I engaged – the disconnect between sales, supply and service. He assured me that the person who would do the installation was professional, thorough and would not mind lugging everything up 6 flights of stairs (the window covering components we decided on being too long for the elevator).
On installation day I was worried about all that could go wrong. Edgar, the installer, arrived and asked to see the elevator to double check the dimensions. After confirming that his components were too long he did not complain about having to carry everything up the inhospitable emergency staircase. Once inside he was indeed professional as well as pleasant and, similar to Mitch, conversational and knowledgable (even about good places for breakfast). Before finishing he showed me where he thought indicators on the pulls should go and wanted my agreement. He even demonstrated how to operate them – not too quickly or roughly.
This happened nearly 2 months ago, so my review is tardy. But the interval has given me an opportunity to confirm that Mitch was right to talk me into a more opaque material. It’s translucent enough for visibility, but reduces sun penetration to an acceptable level. From hereon my first choice for window coverings is Pacific View with its excellent duo of Mitch and Edgar.

Mitch rocks! Hands down the best vendor we used when we were renovating our home. His prices were better than the competition, the quality of stuff he recommended is impeccable and he has a fantastic taste. If you are serious about window coverings, this is the only guy to call.
We ended up using him for a living room and four bedrooms. We get daily compliments from people about how beautiful our curtains look. I wish everyone we dealt with were as good as Mitch when it comes to taking their jobs seriously.

I searched on Unilocal to find someone to put up custom drapes in my bedroom. Saw the great reviews for Pacific View and called to make an appt. Mitch came over and showed me all the options, I ordered, and now have awesome drapes with blackout lining in my bedroom. I’m looking forward to sleeping in this weekend now that the light will be snuffed out! Mitch is highly recommended.

Mitch truly takes pride in his work and is so organized. He really has a great eye for what will work and understands people’s budget constraints. I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable his fees were and he and his workmen did a fantastic job with the installation given how crooked and janky my windows are. I would recommend him highly to anyone. In retrospect, I wish I had splurged a bit more and got a «premium» fabric for my window shades, however, I am super happy with how they look as-​is. Mitch is super cheerful and friendly — very high energy!

We have gone to Mitch twice — the first time for our very first home as a married couple back in 2001, and again in a new house in 2007. Well, we are now in our third house (family has grown) and I plan to give Mitch another call. He is the only person I would trust with my window coverings!

Mitch is the most talented, professional and caring window treatment designer… or any kind of home décor designer I’ve ever worked with.
He is meticulous and will go to any lengths to make sure you are happy.
I would never consider using anyone else!

Mitch helped provide the right window coverings for three apartments we own. From start to finish, very professional. Good salesmanship to help me find the right product for each situation, excellent ordering/​processing of the custom products, and good and flexible installation to meet deadlines. Overall a good experience; will use Mitch again when the need arises.

Mitch is an extremely professional and courteous seller and installer of window treatments. Mitch installed custom roller shades in my loft. He always arrives on time, is well prepared, has excellent suggestions, and explains exactly all the important little details. If you are a novice at ordering custom shades or curtains, you should definitely use Mitch. He will make sure you are well informed and satisfied to the very end.
We had a minor glitch with our shades shortly after install, totally operator error, and Mitch came out at no charge to fix it and explain what happened.
I tried going with another company before Mitch and the difference was night and day between the two. I strongly recommend him!

Mitch came recomended from a friend and the experience with him was excellent all around.
We bought a new home and basically needed window coverings in most every room. We had an idea of what we wanted but Mitch had great ideas for options that we didn’t even concider. He was also very open to staying within the budget and even recommended Ikea or BB and Beyond in a few cases where it made more sense.
When the installer came, he was right there with him, ensuring the job was done correctly. In one room, he came back to fix what the installer did wrong! Seriously, great service and would use him again every time.

Mitch was really great in helping us pick out our drapes and then making sure they were perfect! The drapes did have to be altered after the first installation, but the alterations were rushed and the installers came back within a week.

I recently bought my very first apartment and promised myself I wasn’t going to cheap out on anything. And so for the first time in my life, just duct taping a sheet over my windows wasn’t going to cut it. I turned to Unilocal and decided on Pacific View Window Coverings.
Thank you Unilocal and Mitch of Pacific View.
Mitch makes everything custom for your windows, needs, and taste and even figured out a way not to drill into our window frames, which is a rule at our condo and very hard to work with. He turned our order around in no time and his prices were very competitive. Plus, he’s a joy to be around.
I turned to him after trying to go with Home Expo. They had the worst customer service and were very pricey.
I can’t recommend Pacific View enough.
