Why We Come To You

Your Light, Not A Showroom's

Jess Linnell started this business from one van in 2015, after too many customers brought back blinds that looked nothing like they had under store lights. A gray that looks warm in a showroom can look blue in a north-facing bedroom. So we bring the samples to the room, hold them up at the window, and measure while we're there.

  • ✓Samples held up at your windows
  • ✓Measured on the same visit
  • ✓One person from quote to install

Good To Know

Made For Busy Homes

Cordless Everywhere

Cordless lifts are standard on our blinds and shades, so there are no loops for kids or pets to reach.

Bedrooms That Stay Dark

Blackout cellular and roller shades with tight side gaps for shift workers and early sunrises.

Evening Appointments

Visits until 7 PM on weekdays, so you don't need to take time off work.

Shopping At Home

What You Skip

1

Guessing Colors

You see every sample at your own window, in your own light, before you choose.

2

Measuring Yourself

We measure, so if something we measured doesn't fit, we remake it at our cost.

3

Carrying Boxes Home

Your order comes to us, and we bring it and install it.

Just Moved In?

Do The Whole House In One Visit

New homes often come with bare windows or builder blinds that are already cracking. We'll quote every window at the kitchen table, then install the bedrooms first so you can sleep in the dark from night one.

  • ✓Every window quoted in one visit
  • ✓Bedrooms installed first
  • ✓Old blinds hauled away

With two kids and a dog, getting to a store was never going to happen. Jess came on a Tuesday evening, held samples up in every room and measured while the kids did homework. Cordless blinds in the whole house three weeks later.

I'd ordered blinds online before and measured wrong twice. This time somebody else measured, somebody else installed, and they all fit. I wish I'd done this first.

We bought a house in Waukee with no window coverings at all. Linnell quoted all nineteen windows at the kitchen table and had the bedrooms done before we moved in.
Questions

Mobile Blinds FAQ

Is there a charge for the visit?

No. The visit, the samples and the measure are free, and you're under no obligation to order.

How much do blinds cost if you come to me?

The same as if you came to us. Faux-wood blinds start around $85 a window and cellular shades around $110, measured and installed. You get a written quote at the end of the visit.

How long does a visit take?

About an hour for a typical home. Bigger homes or lots of rooms can take longer; we'll ask how many windows when you book.

Which areas do you cover?

Des Moines, West Des Moines, Ankeny, Urbandale, Waukee, Johnston and Clive. Ask us about anywhere else in Polk or Dallas County.

Can you replace just one broken blind?

Yes. We measure and replace single blinds too, and we can usually match the style of the rest of the room.
