Window Covering
Recommendations
-
Juan Guzman for window tinting. Efficient,
inexpensive and detail oriented. Provides warranties for product and work
performed. Works independently as well as subcontracting for another
business. He has access to all types and products, including Vista which was
the latest written recommended product per HOA (510) 506-0836-cell and
(510) 351-3206-home. (July, 2005)

Optix - Expensive, but I've found them really nice, they keep the place
cool, while keeping the view. Basically sunglasses for the windows.

We purchased our window shades
from Berkeley Shade. They have a wealth of experience at BYL including
working with the slanted windows in the solarium. Price is very competitive
and is a little more straightforward that dealing with Home Depot for example
because it's a smaller company. Staff is very knowledgeable and professional.
Installer was a little overworked and brought his son with him.....Hope this
helps. (April, 2004)

I bought mine at Home Depot. They have worked great for
several years. I installed them myself. They were inexpensive. Highly
recommended for the do-it-yourselfer who wants value for the dollar. (April,

Window Accents at 836 Francisco Rd in San Rafael
(415-459-7838) has done a lot of windows at the landing over the years. We
were quite happy with the work they did for us. There are a number of
different ways of dealing with the solarium windows. (April, 2004)

When I lived in Seattle I worked
for a company that was a sublet company for Costco. They are here in the
Bay Area too. All you have to do is call their 800# (1-800-25DECOR ?) I
think that was the #.... Costco would be able to confirm that. They send a
decorator out. She helps you pick colors & style, then they send someone out
to measure & then someone to install. Price was extremely reasonable...I
would suggest Hunter Douglas shades...they may be a little more $ but well
worth it in the long run. I've seen the kiosk in the Costco in Richmond one
off Central. I'm not certain who the decorator is that has this area but
everyone in the Seattle area was great. (April, 2004)
