Why ProBlinds Does It Differently—And Saves You Money
When it comes to buying window treatments—blinds, shades, or shutters—it’s easy to get overwhelmed by brands, inflated prices, and flashy showrooms. But behind the scenes, the industry operates in a way that often leaves customers paying more than they should.
At ProBlinds, we’ve been in the window treatment business for nearly 40 years. We’ve seen every side of it—starting as installers, then moving into sales, becoming manufacturer reps, and now owning our own company. That experience gives us a unique insider’s perspective on how the industry really works.
And here’s the truth:
Most of what you’re paying for when you buy from national brands or big box stores isn’t the product—it’s the overhead.
Big brands have huge costs to cover:
➡️ Pricey advertising and branding campaigns
➡️ Placement fees just to get their products on showroom floors
➡️ Massive machinery and production costs
➡️ Franchising and showroom expenses
➡️ And often, outsourced manufacturing overseas
All of that gets passed along to you, the customer—in the form of higher prices and fewer real choices.
At ProBlinds, we do it differently.
We partner with medium-sized, American-based manufacturers who make high-quality, custom window treatments using the same components as the big names—but without the bloated costs. These are the quiet leaders in our industry. They focus on craftsmanship over marketing—and that’s why we trust them.
What this means for you:
✅ Lower prices
✅ Better products
✅ Truly custom options
✅ Lifetime warranties
✅ And no middleman markup
Plus, we don’t carry the burden of franchise fees or retail storefronts. We bring the showroom to you—right in your home. That’s how we keep things simple, personal, and affordable.
So if you’re ready for a smarter way to shop for blinds, shades, or shutters, give us a call. We’ll give you an honest look inside the industry—and help you get exactly what you need, without overpaying.
