Gavin came out to my company’s San Francisco office for a quote very quickly after I had initially contacted him. He is very professional and friendly and very knowledgeable. He went over all of our options and gave us really wonderful suggestions. We decided to do the sheerweave blinds with a motor. From quote to install was quick and the install was done in a morning in just a few hours. The crew did a beautiful job and not only are the blinds fantastic, but they cleaned up and left the place looking better than when they came. I highly recommend Gavin and his team for any shade/​blind work you need done. You will not be disappointed.

I recently had them make roll down shades (1% open) for my apartment’s 6 windows and am very happy with the finished product. They are great to deal with, polite and professional.
Highly recommended with a competitive price.

Cutting Edge Drapery did my office in the Embarcadero Center’s shades. The job was done quickly and the interactions I had with the technicians were very professional. I was impressed that they were sensitive to a casual meeting I was having in a conference room and made sure it was ok to come in and install the last shade of the job. It was no problem AND it took no time at all. I was surprised at how quick they worked and after having the shades for a few months I can say they are great quality. Will definitely be a repeat customer!

We can attest that Cutting Edge Drapery is the only company we work with, trust, and would recommend – for any job. We have been working with them since 2010, when the current chief engineer at the Ritz Carlton highly recommended them for the job we were doing in their hotel. We have been working with Cutting Edge ever since. In fact, we just completed work on a $ 300 million winery facility, and they did all of our window shades. They are also currently helping us on a $ 14 million dollar private residence. Although they specialize in commercial shading, they do some large scale drapery and soft goods as well. We can say we wouldn’t work with anyone else. Furthermore, even when we have had to provide alternate bids, they still come in the lowest. Finally, they are all great to work with. Dennis is always there to field our calls, and Gavin is brilliant and knows what to recommend and no project is too difficult. They have never let us down, and we only hope they have no plans to retire soon!

Cutting Edge Drapery has installed shades in my last two homes and are currently working on our 3rd and final remodel. Not only have they always done great work but they have also made recommendations that we would have not otherwise known. For example, we recently finished remodeling our master bath, my wife wanted shutters. When Dan came out to measure he pointed out something we completely over looked and why shutters were not the best option for our situation. Dan showed my wife an alternative that she ended up loving more then her shutter idea. Once the house is done, Cutting Edge will finish all the windows. As a REALTOR, I have referred cutting edge to many of my clients. I am giving Cutting Edge 5 Stars and recommending them to you too.

I needed some replacement parts for some roller shades at my house. Alex and his crew were very helpful, found exactly what I needed, and instructed me on installation back at my home. Their product worked perfectly and I now have fully functioning window shades at my house again. These guys rock.

Recommended to us by an architect in town as the folks who know their business best and deliver. Professional, helpful, efficient, superb design, install, and post-​install support. After seeing our unit, they stepped out of their box a bit to give us some design advice when we asked. They clearly «got» what we were trying to do, and proposed a few design changes that were simpler (and actually less costly than what some other folks had proposed). Their pricing was competitive vs. others with no need for back and forth. Their install was flawless and professional. The folks we worked with were all very personable and helpful. They came out twice, very quickly, for warranty support when one roller shade failed over two years, no questions asked. Could not recommend a contractor more highly.
For those who care, they installed several motorized shades with wireless control and timers on 10’x10’ windows in sunny SOMA location. They came up with some interesting ideas for floating panels of solar shade fabric in one location that met our design needs, took us to their showroom when we were navel-​gazing over some small issues, and gave us good advice not to install boxes around our roller shades. They helped negotiate spousal agreement with good analytical advice!

Thanks again Cutting Edge Drapery! My last client that I referred to you just called to thank me for the second time. The automatic roller shades that guys recommended and installed look great! They love that at a flip of a switch will lower and/​or raise coverings on all 15 windows.
I have been a Realtor here in San Francisco for over 14 years and have had the pleasure of doing business with Cutting Edge drapery at least a dozen times. They have done everything from large commercial projects, all the way down to a single covering for client of mine. The guys down at Cutting Edge run a tight ship from Gavin or Dan that give the estimates to the guys that do the install. On time, courteous and always professional.
I should also mention that after I saw an installation they did for a client of mine. I had them come in, design and install a «James Bond» fully remote roller shade set up for my home. My family and I love the work they did!
Always a pleasure,

A couple of months ago I needed a couple of drop down shades for my home theater room. I had setup a projector with a large screen, and the room needed to have better light control during the day.
I contacted Dan @ Cutting Edge and he promptly came out, measured the windows and offered me an amazing deal.
Originally, since these windows were about 20 feet off the ground I had asked Dan for shades with electric motors. However, Dan took the time and explained the most cost effective solution — chain control. He could have certainly made a lot more money if he went with my suggestion, however, he went out of his way to find the most cost effective solution to solve the problem.
In the future I will not hesitate to use Dan and the crew at Cutting Edge for my window covering needs.

I am surprised to see such a low rating for Cutting Edge. I have used them to put blinds and roller shades in my home twice. Once when we moved initially moved in and then after a remodel. I believe the actual owner came out to measure all my windows and sliding doors. This even before he new I was going to be a customer. There was no speak of a charge for coming out to give me a quote. I have to admit that I was very wishy washy about what I wanted and what my exact budget was. You know filet mignon taste with a spam budget (LOL). He was very patient and allowed me to keep quite a number of sample books at my home until I made up my mind. When I made up my mind (finally), his prices were very reasonable, especially for the level of service I received. The installers were friendly and professional, they cleaned up after themselves. (My pet peeve about contractors of any kind). I will use them again and most definitely for any business I would own.

Response to Cutting Edge Drapery:
***Thank you for apologizing in the email, but Unilocal is an outlet where an individual can review a business on the basis of what the business provides. It defeats the purpose if I change or remove a review. Your company did the job well, but the way that it was carried out was below my standards. Looking at the reviews that followed mine, it seems that they’ve had a better experience with you. That is the case from time to time. I do wish your company the best. I have other thoughts, but I think I’ve said all I have to say.
1. Businesses usually do not charge to come out and give a quote. For instance, I currently have carpet cleaning done at the office and they came from San Mateo to San Jose to give a quote. No charge or talk of charge. How is it fair that you charge for assessment only if we were to use your company? So the other companies that call out for a quote, you do not charge them if they do not use you? Is this correct?
2. Your business is to repair a job, not to annouce to the world that it fell down because we placed a screen on it. To be perfectly frank, that is not the reason why it fell. So please keep this professional.
3. Vans, labor, gas, auto insurance, medical insurance, tools, screws, and rent. Understandable that a business has to conduct within their financial means. Just please don’t say one thing and do the other. I base this on onsite arrival and installation. When your men came, it literally took them 30 minutes to put half the screen back up. You can say it lasted an hour, but you were not here installing it.
4. To clarify further, you said this was a 1 hour job. Shouldn’t it be only $ 250 still?
***I am writing a review on my experiences with your company. Plain and simple. No biases.
