Let the Light In

Personalize Your Home's Lighting with Classic Blinds and Shutters

Whether you're one to throw open the drapes and let in the sunlight every morning or you prefer to match the lighting to the mood, Classic Blinds and Shutters has a window solution for every lighting preference. Shop the local showroom or hire them for an installation to enhance your space's practicality while keeping things stylish.

"Our goal is to be the premier window covering company in the Atlanta area and beyond by educating our clients on all window covering options and building relationships that last even after installation," says co-owner Andrea Zare. 

Owners Andrea and Sean Zare have been working in the window covering business together since 1996 and haven't stopped since. Their passion and expertise combined with their brilliant partnership led them to open their own business and offer a more personalized experience to their loyal client base. While the business started with a "Shop At Home" concept that followed them up until 2009, they eventually encountered unprecedented growth and made the necessary decision to expand.

After over a decade of success thanks to their first showroom in Alpharetta, GA, Classic Blinds and Shutters expanded again to a second showroom in Marietta, where they reside, in 2023. All new customer journeys should start in the newly remodeled gallery showroom in Alpharetta where potential clients can see, touch and operate the entire line of shades, blinds, shutters and drapery. The team can also demonstrate the many automations and motorization features included with most window coverings nowadays to help customers make a choice that better fits their lifestyle.

Those who find something that fits will then begin the installation process, starting with a complimentary in-home consultation where Andrea and Sean will bring the samples to them. After choosing the best option for them and signing off on a quote, the client can sit back, relax and be hands off for the remainder of the project while the professional, certified installers take over.

The character of Classic Blinds and Shutters is to listen and understand all client needs, whether they be related to privacy, sun control, light efficiency, energy efficiency, child and pet safety or operational features. 

"We want clients to feel comfortable when making a decision and investment in their window treatments," says Andrea Zare.

To start using your home's natural lighting to your advantage, contact Classic Blinds and Shutters by visiting one of their showrooms in either Marietta or Alpharetta, or visiting the website classicblindsandshutters.com.
