Great customer service and very professional. The plantation shutters are beautiful. Ordered for 2 rooms in our home and did such a great job ordered for another room. Installation went great and the installers cleaned up behind themselves. After installing I was given an overview of how to properly open and close the shutters and how to keep them clean. I would recommend to anyone who wants professional service.

Benchmark Blinds, Shutters & Shades Inc. is the best. If you are not sure what to do with your window treatment you should go ahead and work with Benchmark! Clint's customer service, knowledge about window treatments, professionalism is absolutely top notch. He was always so quick to respond to emails and every interaction with him was a so nice. In addition, Billy, who installs the window treatment is also top notch. Billy will make sure that his installation is *perfect.* He was so careful and thoughtful with the installation and our blinds look FANTASTIC as a result. We love Benchmark!

Benchmark Shutters & Shades did an extraordinary job at our home! Clint Chambers the owner is honest, professional, punctual and priced just right. Mr. Chambers was wonderful to work with on our project - we went the 4" vein Silhouettes in the front and master bedrooms and Ever Woods in our guest room. The window treatments are so beautiful and the installation done by his installer Billy are perfect and I mean perfect! We are simply thrilled!! We will be recommending Benchmark Shutters&Shades to our new neighbors and friends!! Theses are just so beautiful!!! Belinda&Dave DiMarcello.

We are beyond thrilled with our new Plantation Shutters that were recently installed, they completely changed the appearance of our house inside and out! The customer service that we received from this company was outstanding, they even offered to clean up the dust from installation! The attention to detail is what I loved most about Clint, he was such a huge help with deciding what to do with our oversized window! I can't wait to have more installed in the near future. I would and will use this company again and would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a professional, friendly and personable staff! Thank you for making my living room and kitchen beautiful!

We recently got our Hunter Douglas Parkland Wood blinds from Benchmark Shutters and Shades Inc and it has been one of the best decisions we've made. Having moved into a new build, one of the stressful things to think about - other than the actual move itself with two kiddos under 3- was getting window treatments. Clint was super friendly and very thorough in taking measurements and getting us everything we needed to make a timely decision. On top of it, the blinds were made and installed in two weeks!!! Billy, the installer, was incredibly friendly and did an excellent job. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Benchmark to anyone. Truly an outstanding experience!

I can't say enough great things about this company. I have used them multiple times for my home and have refer them to all of my clients for their homes as well. They are punctual, meet deadlines and offer outstanding customer service. I am lucky to have found this company and will continue to use and refer them to everyone I know.

I could not be happier with the shutter I had installed by Benchmark Shutters. They are very professional, and did an outstanding job installing them. I am glad that I went with a local business, and I know they will stand behind their work.
