Blinds, and Kitchen Flooring
We have been very fortunate to have benefited from the services of Kingsway Carpets & Blinds on several occasions. We first met George and Maria in July of 2007 when we were looking for some window blinds for a new room that had been added to our house. We saw the store on East Mall & North Queen and went in. George was very helpful presenting us with both suggestions and recommendations for various styles, material and colours. He then came out to the house to make the measurements. An installation date was set, and honoured exactly on time. The blinds just made the room look perfect. Our next encounter was in about 2012 when we were looking for a replacement for our kitchen linoleum flooring. We went and saw George for some suggestions. He loaned us several samples to bring and try out. Many were nice, but not just right, since there was at western facing window and also a small door window on the landing. George said he would keep looking. We also checked out other companies that other friends has suggested. While being out west, we found out about a tile that we thought might work well, so came back to see if George could get it. George found out where it was manufactured and let us know yes he could order the same product. Again, he came to do exact measuring and then arranged for the installation. When the installers came, they were very efficient, caring and thorough in their work. One of the closet doors had to be slightly shaved for the tile to fit. They cleaned up every part of the job. One of the difficult parts was having a partial circular staircase from the kitchen to the lower landing and back door. George and the installers thought, discussed and planned how best to deal with the odd shape, and also install secure edging. A perfect job and fit. Our most recent involvement was needing some repair to a basement rug (installed by another company in 2003) which had been buckling for a few years. Again, George and Maria from Kingsway Carpets and Blinds, came to our rescue. Maria arranged for installers to come, move the furniture (including an oak desk), stretch and trim the carpet, return the furniture - all at a very reasonable rate.
So for any blinds, tiles or carpet work, we HIGHLY recommend George, Maria and their family at Kingsway Carpet & Blinds. at 100 The East Mall (at the corner of North Queen - around the corner from Walmart, down the street from Lowes. )
