Last night I got a look at our new drapes. The installers had tied them up to "train them". I think he said to leave it like that for two weeks. However, we had company today so I took the ties off them last night. They are beautiful, we love them! I wasn't sure I would like the red bands on them but it looks real nice! And, of course, goes well with our colour scheme. Thanks so much for this wonderful product. We are super happy with the chair coverings also.

We were pleasantly surprised when the blinds came within one week of your measuring visit. The fellows that did the installation were very courteous and diligent in their work They had to make the best of our “crooked” walls and window frames so that everything would look great. We are very pleased with everything that your firm did for us and would be pleased to provide a reference if you ever find yourself in need of one.

I obtained several quotes for custom black out drapes for my master bedroom. Elite Draperies' prices were competitive and they provided excellent service. Designer Veronique came to my house to take measurements and suggested choices of fabric. The drapes were done in a timely manner and professionally installed by the company. I was fully satisfied with the results and my drapes are gorgeous!

We recently moved to a new condominium with large floor to ceiling windows facing East and West. With 10 4'X12' windows, the thought of having to manually open and close blinds was forbidding. We contacted Elite and met with Greg who had a solution for us: motorized blinds. Greg was very attentive to our needs. He assisted us in the selection of appropriate blinds to suit our design. The installation was prompt and, when the blinds or motors needed adjustment, he or members of his team were readily available to make the adjustments necessary. We are extremely pleased with the products provided and with the attentive service we received. We would not hesitate to recommend their services to others.

We had great challenge on how to cover our windows for style and function for our TV room that had a variety of windows...after consulting other custom drapery stores we felt it was impossible. Mary Birtch consulted and solved our problem easily, with style and function! We love our room, thanks to Mary.

Received excellent service from Elite - we did all the windows in our condo (2014) & got great help re choosing window coverings (including electronic blind) as well as installation & follow-up service re a small change to electronic blind. Very happy to recommend Elite (people are really friendly too).

Mary and Greg are fabulous to work with! The Elite team did a great job designing and installing 18 motorized blinds in our new loft style condo. They showed tremendous attention to detail and follow up to make sure everything was just right. We couldn't be more pleased.

Very professional and prompt with service & delivery. Mary and Greg are a great team; bringing expertise from all angles of the 'blind & curtain' business. Our new window coverings are wonderful. We love the remote control for the blinds. What fun is that!

Elite draperies have been dong our window coverings for over 14 years. They are one of the most professional companies we have ever worked with. They have installed all of our window dressings for our home. From drapes, to blinds. Both Mary and Woody always listen to our tastes and needs, which can be rare these days. Elite has also installed all of our blinds in my private school, we have been in the same location now for 12 years and have never had any problems, which I find amazing considering that we have an age group of 12 months to 6 years of age at times helping to open and close them all day. Not only is their professionalism a plus so is the durability and quality of product. We are in the middle of moving now from our home of 24 years and I to a condo, we again are putting our full trust in Elite to cover our 12ft. Windows throughout our new home. Would t choose anyone else in the city.

My experience with Elite Draperies and Home Decorating has been amazing. This is the second time I have hired this company for a decorating project. For both projects I worked with Veronique. She was professional, easy going, and worked within our budget with no pressure or awkwardness about it. All other staff I encountered (admin, delivery people) were so courteous and efficient. Veronique had so many good ideas and listened to what we liked/disliked. The blinds and seating they made for our kitchen were such good quality and really finished off the room and made it unique. She made my dining room stunning; people actually comment on how beautiful the room is when they first see it. It's my favourite room in the house now! Veronique has a real gift for mixing fabrics in a room and I was really impressed with all the high quality furniture, lighting, and fabrics she found me. I literally can't think of one negative thing about my experiences with Elite. I will continue to use them for any future decorating projects I have.

Elite was hired to provide comprehensive consultation for a new home build. This included selection of kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, counter tops, tiles, flooring, paint , lighting achieving a complete finished look. In addition, window treatments , furniture and, bedding for living room and bedrooms were produced and delivered by Elite. The end product exceeded my expectations and is both functional and stylish. Elite provided excellent service and was very responsive and respected budget targets. I would highly recommend Elite for a new home build as this type of project can be quite overwhelming and the professional support is well worth it and it shows in the end product.
