Nik was professional, polite, poised, personable and patient. He answered my questions and provided I put when I couldn't decide on the type/color of solar screen to have installed. I was pleasantly surprised by the short turnaround and the timelinesses of the entire process. I was completely satisfied by his responsiveness. I had contacted several companies and he responded first and came to assess what I wanted done before providing an estimate.
I will definitely refer him to anyone wanting to have solar screens installed. The best experience with having work done to my home. I just want to say thank you and Jon very well done. CP

Where do I start!?! Personally feel like this is the best value for money upgrade we have ever done on our home. Called Nik, he came over, measured up, counted how many screens needed replacing, went away & built them, 10 days later they were installed. Process is very fast & very simple. Difference between the new & the old are night & day, old ones were shiny and off color, new ones match window color perfectly as well. Great service! Do not hesitate! Price is fantastic!

Nik is so awesome! He's very responsive and great to work with. The whole process was so quick and so so easy, it felt like I blinked and it was done. The screens look awesome and my room is so nice and dark (just what I wanted!) and it feels cooler too for once which is awesome. I highly recommend Nik and his company!

My new screens are working beautifully. 90% block in black. They accents the house nicely and reduced the inside temp at the window ~14 degrees F, on a sunny day (91F). Temp at window, inside, dropped from 105F to 91F. I compared two windows, both in direct evening sun (central Texas). One with the new screen and one is without. Outside temp is 91F and the inside temp at the window is the same, 91F. New, more efficient windows would reduce that temp further.
Our central air conditioner is running less and the temp inside the house is a comfortable 74F. Before we installed these new screens out AC ran constantly and could not reach the set temp of 74F. The price was reasonable and Nik of Southwest Solar Screens did a great job. Prompt and professional! We have another project that will require screens and we will call Nik when we are ready to order.

We wanted to replace some of our solar screens that were mounted in 1/2 in. frames. We needed more durability and Nik, the owner recommended we upgrade to 1 in. frames. He measured our windows and in no time he himself installed our screens that are both beautiful and functional. It has been at least 2 months since the installation and we are quite satisfied with the product. Nik is friendly, knowledgeable and easy to work with. I highly recommend Southwest Solar Screens.

I had a fantastic experience with Nik and Southwest Solar Screens! Cannot recommend him and his work enough. He was super responsive to my initial contact, and even though it was the middle of a very hot summer he made time to come out the same day and take a look at my home. He measured a multitude of windows on our home, and gave us an estimate that was extremely fair based on the research we had done.
He did not charge anything to measure the windows or to provide a consultation, which my wife and I REALLY appreciated. From the day we placed our order, it took roughly a week for the screens to get installed. From beginning to end, Nik was super responsive and transparent. I am so happy to have met and done business with him, and cannot recommend him enough to anyone who is considering solar screens. It has made a really big difference in our home, and the experience we had with Southwest Solar Screens was top notch from beginning to end.

I highly recommend Southwest Solar Screens. The screens made a huge difference in the appearance of this home. Working with Nik encourages me to use Southwest Solar Screens again in the future. He offered excellent customer service and proved how dependable, kind, and trustful this company is. Thank you for the great service!

We found out about Nik and his company from our neighbor who had used him. We already liked the look of his product and when we contacted him, he was quick to respond and schedule a date for an estimate. The turnaround to receive the screens we ordered was quick but I saved the best part to last. The screens we chose were the 90% shade and made our house look amazing. Nik even made sure screens were well secured by adding a couple of extra screws to allow for those extra windy days. I can't say enough how professional and courteous he is and would highly recommend his company for anyone considering solar screens with our Texas summers.

Nik immediately responded to my request for a quote and within 24 hours, we made an appointment for an estimate. He came early, was well-prepared and professional. After measuring the window I wanted screened, he was quick to give an estimate and be on his way. Within a week, the screen was ready and Nik installed in less than 5 minutes. The solar screen looks beautiful.
I got the 90% bronze and love it. I wish I could post a photo because the window looks awesome. Tomorrow will be the first day of more intense heat. I ordered the screen to block out the sun/heat from the room. Thanks Nik!

I had 3 quotes for solar screens - all from contractors recommended by friends - Southwest was one of the lower bids - but that's not why I picked them. Nik was great. Nice guy and very personable - good customer service. That holds a lot of weight with me. He came right out to take a look at my windows and gave me a quote quickly. (One company gave me a quote without coming out but wanted to charge me just to come out to measure to give me a more accurate quote). Nik helped me pick the screen color to go best with my house (I had a hard time deciding). I had my screens within a week. They look great!! Glad I went with SouthWest Solar Screens.

Southwest Solar Screens are awesome, they came over and measured my windows and explained to me the different options that I could purchase. I wanted both privacy and help with keeping my home cool for the Texas summer. The best part was that I could view some of their work and Nik was very professional and knowledgeable about his product.

I just got my new solar screens and roller shades from southwest solar screens. The service was outstanding and very accommodating. I couldn't believe the amount of instant relief of heat it provided my patio. The shades themselves came in every color and are very heavy duty. I would recommend Southwest Solar Screens to anyone looking to shade there windows or patios.
