Kathy’s diligence and determination assisted her in landing a position at Home Depot as a Home Design Consultant. She excelled while expanding her experience in window covering applications. Her reputation grew and as the demand for her services increased, customers would willingly wait until she was available. Following two successful years with Home Depot, Kathy became a sales account manager for a window covering manufacturer and Budget Blinds was her most significant account. With extensive experience and knowledge of the window covering industry, she became responsible for one of the largest territories in the Bay Area winning many awards for achieving top sales. When the opportunity arose to purchase Budget Blinds of Monterey County, she was finally able to realize her ambitions and make her dream come true. To work and live near the ocean was her lifelong dream and Budget Blinds is a highly regarded company. It was a perfect match!

- August 24, 2024Jon A.Buying blinds and shades seems simple at first but there are so many choices -- color, style, shade vs blind, light filtering, opacity, remote control options, valence, texture, and so on. Kathy made it simple. She looked at the room and gave us a few selections along with her recommendation. I went with that and the final outcome was great. The installers also did a good job -- they were courteous, explained the operation of the shades, and cleaned up after themselves.Budget Blinds of Monterey CountyDear Jon A, Thank you so much for the 5-star review!

- September 20, 2023Dave A.Kathy is great, both very patient and knowledgeable. I ordered two top down bottom up glass door shades. Been very happy with them. About a year ago I had a problem and Kathy was quick to send a gentleman out to fix. More recently I had a self-induced issue, Causing the cord to fray. Kathy quickly contacted the gentleman that does her repairs, since the error was mine I expect to pay for the gentleman's service but was told Kathy most likely will take care of the cost, which she did! Very pleasant Surprise. I cannot ask for better customer service. Kathy/Buget Blinds highly recommend. DaveBudget Blinds of Monterey CountyThank you David! We appreciate your kind words and taking the time to write us a review. We strive to offer the best customer service and going the extra mile is all a part of our values. The top-down/bottom-up Honeycomb shades are an elegant addition to any home and it was our pleasure to repair the cord for you. We look forward to doing more business with you in the future at Budget Blinds of Monterey County.

- August 17, 2023Mukul J.it was my first time trying out Budget Blinds and had to finalize multiple blisds for the entire new house and within our budget and within a short time window. Let me start by saying that Working with Kathy from Budget blind was simply a pleasure! she brought the samples with her, guided me though different options; helped me with her recommendations and we were able to make the final decision within a couple of hrs in the very first appointment. The process took a few weeks to get the blinds manufactured and installed; and Kathy kept me informed throughout on the progress. The House looks so much more beautiful with the blinds we chose and I cant thank Kathy/Budget blinds of Monterey enough for it! I would recommend working w/ Kathy (Budget blinds, Monterey) in a heartbeat; and I would surely be e repeat customer of Budget blinds Monterey if I ever needed blinds again in the future.Budget Blinds of Monterey CountyThank you Mukul!
