Where Toronto homeowners buy blinds
1. Crazy Joe’s Drapery & Blinds
Custom blinds & drapes · Mississauga showroom, in-home across the GTA
Family-run since 1970. Every blind is made to measure: a consultant brings samples to your home, measures every window, quotes on the spot and installs. Joe will beat a written quote for the same product, and installation is free on orders over $988 for a limited time.
2. Hunter Douglas dealers

Hunter Douglas sells through independent dealers who measure and install. A good choice if you want that specific brand; compare dealer quotes.

FAQ
What is the best store for blinds in Toronto?
It depends on your windows and budget. For standard windows and a quick fix, big-box stores work. For condos, tall or wide windows, motorized blinds or a finished look, a custom blinds company that measures and installs gives the best fit.
Is it cheaper to buy blinds online?
Often per blind, but you measure and install yourself, and a measuring mistake is yours to fix. With a custom company, the fit is guaranteed by the people who measured.
Does Crazy Joe’s come to my home?
Yes. We bring samples to your home anywhere in Toronto and the GTA, measure and quote on the spot. Free.
