Corner Windows and Curved Rods Though I have done many curved drapery rods in the past, this is the first time I recall doing them in a video and blog post. It is a very basic video, but if you have a corner window, then you will be interested in seeing how it works. Custom Drapery Rods Overcome Issues This blog is about overcoming challenges when doing draperies or curtains.
There are many options when it comes to your Reno window coverings. Many homeowners prefer the softness of draperies while others enjoy the practical aspects of blinds, but there is nothing that can match the old world charm and craftsmanship that shutters bring to a room. Poly core shutters also offer the same light control aspects of blinds.

We had existing Norman shutters on about half of our windows. Because we love our view we weren't sure what to do on the large living room window and sliding glass door. Paul exactly matched the off white color. The sliding door along with windows in the house and garage came out perfect. So nice to work with a perfectionist. Paul and April do amazing work and such a pleasure to work with. Five stars for sure!

We love our shutters. The sliding glass door along with all the windows look amazing. We were matching a few windows that already had Norman shutters and you can't tell the existing from the new. Great color match! What a pleasure to have a perfectionist order and install. He and his wife are by far the best for window treatments. Thank you Paul and April. Five stars!

Paul came highly recommended, I can see why! Very personable great enthusiasm and confidence in his products that he recommends! I have two large window 70 x 80 approximately and I am very pleased with my remote control blinds he professionally installed! I had him going in every direction trying to pick out blinds that I would like and he helped me narrow each and every one down with pros and cons to fit my needs and motif!
I am exceptionally pleased by his good eye and great judgement in helping me to select! Perfectionist Paul is your person if you want a good honest product and job well done!

We have been lucky enough to work with Paul on 4 separate occasions in Reno and Incline Village. Paul's greatest attribute is he is personally involved with all of his clients right from the first visit to final installation. He knows all of his product line extremely well and is a wealth of knowledge and innovation. Great to work with someone so committed and knowledgeable.

I definitely recommend this business, the owner Mr. Kempler goes above and beyond to make his customers happy. In addition, we loved the roller shade we got from him. He gave us a product that was unnoticeably damaged in shipping from one of his clients. And we he made sure we got the product functioning right. Five stars professionalism and quality. Thank you Mr. Kempler.

Paul has a wealth of ideas and experience and listens carefully to clients' preferences and needs. His work is precise and the results last. I continue to be very pleased with the window coverings he installed in one room seven years ago and am delighted with the wood blinds he installed in another room today.

Just had some drapes installed, and couldn't be more thrilled! we have a smaller, older home with wood paneling (yes, it's still around!) around the large living room window, and hard wood floors. it was a choice of replacing the patterned sofa and wool rug - that we both love (and we think beautiful!) - or getting new drapes. wow! new drapes were the right choice! paul is so experienced (i think he said he's been doing this for 27 years) and knowledgeable! i wanted lighter weight drapes so the room didn't feel so closed in, and something that would bring out the colors in the sofa and rug. perfection! paul is great to work - he's fun, relaxed, and easy to talk to! i didn't feel intimidated by his knowledge and my lack thereof - he listens to what you're saying, describing, and if you're not sure what you want (me!) he tosses out ideas, suggestions. goes thru material types, backing - end result? beautiful! again, wow! thank you, paul!

Paul Kempler makes a series of very informative and useful videos on YouTube about window blinds and various treatment options, including on very unique products. One of these videos piqued my interest, but I am from out of the area. I contacted the company and got through to Paul right away; he explained the product I was interested in was no longer available but consulted with me on the phone about my situation and requirements and suggested alternative products I hadn't considered (despite considerable research already done on my end) that could meet both my functional and aesthetic requirements.
Extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and just a nice guy. Much nicer than the people I had already contacted in my local area who had been out to my home and described themselves literally as "the WORLD'S foremost expert in blind motorization" or other people who blew off appointments. I would work with him in a minute--he has a keen eye, wide variety of options, and focuses on function not just selling you some specific brand.

We have a large 12 foot wide sliding glass door. We called Paul Kempler After other companies told us it was just not possible To do plantation shutters on that door. Paul Arrived when scheduled and knew exactly the correct solution for our shutters. Paul kept us informed of the status of our order and expected delivery date. He installed our shutters with care and we couldn't be more pleased. They look great and Paul was a pleasure to work with.

So met Paul and April in 2003 at a home show and had them do the blinds for our new house. Fast exceptional service and got what we asked for in an affordable, quality product. Fast forward 17 years and needing some blinds in a new house. Only person I called was Paul. Fast, friendly service and superior attention to detail. Stellar work Paul and April. Thank you for all you have helped us through over the many years.

My new Hunter Douglas blinds were just installed by Paul and Lee. I am thrilled! I needed blinds for my sliding glass doors in both my kitchen and bedroom and they are beautiful. Perfect! Paul worked with me to accommodate my dog door in the kitchen and blackout blinds in the bedroom. Having moved to Reno/Sparks recently from a more rural area, I started my search for new blinds 6 months ago.
Not being familiar with big box stores, I started there. It was a nightmare and I finally required the cost they had charged me returned. The process with Kempler Design was easy, very personal, and so satisfying. Don't bother with anyone else.

I have been meaning to write this for a few weeks. I cannot thank Mr. Kempler enough for his HONEST consult! This is very rare and hard to find these days. We wanted to take the window coverings from previous owners down, and put up a white cornice board til we knew what to do. We were ready to write him a check, but he was so honest with us and encouraged us to really think about it before spending the money on something he thought would not look as good compared to what already existed.
We thought about it, and he was so right! Once we are ready to change the current design we will definitely be calling him. It was just so refreshing to gave someone turn down a job in our best interest. I highly recommend him if you want honesty and expertise design!

Paul Kempler is an amazingly talented mathematician with a creative eye. He fixed problems created by another designer that I had contracted to build my custom draperies. He was on-time, professional and corrected mistakes left from another designer which took him a long time to correct but he did so cheerfully and professionally. He ordered just the right look for my home.
His installation is strong and will hold up for a very long time with the amount of special care he provided. I am amazed that he took so much time to get it right. I will refer him to my friends and to my family. He cared enough to do it correctly! He was cordial, polite and most certainly he has done this for many years. Thanks Paul!

We've been looking for these special Hunter Douglas shade parts for months. This sort of thing is completely not what Kempler does, but they were kind enough to do a special order for me, very quickly and inexpensively. It's the little things that make a huge difference! Very much appreciate Paul for going above and beyond for us when no one else has. Once were ready to update, he's going to be who we call.

Paul Kempler at Kempler Design is truly a Window and Door Fashion Expert! Following our 14 month complete home renovation, Paul arrived at our home with his awesome attitude, ready to "design" and ready to make us smile. And smiling we are! Paul drove over an hour to meet us at our home. We never felt pressure or the typical sales pitch. Paul took into consideration our budget, and provided us with a comfortable, contemporary style that we will enjoy for many years! Thank you, Paul!

Paul Kempler finished our "whole house" installation last night after working in to the evening hours just to accommodate us with regard to guests coming in from out of town. Our installation date was scheduled for next week, but he went to extraordinary efforts to see to it that our shutters and draperies were installed before our guest's arrival.
It gets better.what an outstanding job of fit and finish; everything was perfect! The sign of a true professional. I would certainly recommend Paul Kempler Design; and feel so lucky that moving in to a new area we were able to find him.

We had particular difficult sky light Windows that needed covering to reduce the temperature of the house in summer in our solarium. It was a very difficult installation. Paul really took good care of us. He designed it perfectly. We had a couple other window treatment designers look at the project. Paul was very knowledgeable and we are so happy with the outcome. The temperature in the room dropped 25 degrees. Thanks Paul Kempler for your help.

July 2016: Paul Kempler showed up to give us a "Free Estimate, " but it turned out to be an annoying waste of our time. In short, our experience with Paul led us to feel he is: Useless. Overpriced. Pretentious. not to mention Condescending. Apparently, our budget displeased Paul and he slapped his tablet shut and dismissed the appointment. We were told, "Well, if that's your budget then I have nothing for you." We had been very clear when sched an appt with Paul that only one room needed treatments, but he still insisted he wanted to come over to do an estimate. We wasted over an hour of our mid-day time on this pompous jackass when we could have been watching our astroturf grow.

After researching and reviewing other companies over the web and in person, we came across Paul Kempler. I set up the initial meeting for an estimate in which Paul spent a lot of time in person explaining the differences in materials, design, colors combinations etc. In our experience Paul went the extra mile and was always professional. His workmanship and attention to detail was very appreciated.
We have no idea what "E.S" was referring to in her negative review, but we have nothing but positive things to say about Paul Kempler! He did an amazing job that we are very pleased with the and will not hesitate to hire him again on future projects. Thank you so much Paul and company!
