We Started Buy Home Blinds Because Your Home Should be Better Than a Big-Box Store
BuyHomeBlinds was established with a single conviction: each homeowner in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC deserves to have access to beautiful, high-quality window treatments – without the inflated prices or the runaround that comes with having to deal with large national chains.
We are a family owned, local window treatments company, located in Beltsville, Maryland. We have been having a simple mission since day one, which is to bring premium custom blinds, shades, shutters and even drapery to your house at a price that actually makes sense – and support every order with what we call the kind of personal service that you can only get with a local expert.
We carry and install products of the most trusted names in the industry – Norman, Hunter Douglas, Alta, and others – and we take the time to help you find the right fit when it comes to your windows, your style and your budget. You are looking to shop online and add a quick DIY upgrade or you are looking to have someone come to your house, measure all your windows and get the full installation done.
You are not acquiring a call centre when you deal with BuyHomeBlinds. You are getting a real person who picks up the phone, arrives on time and makes follow up after the job is done.
Meet Marcus Forrester – The Specialist Behind Every Consultation
Central to BuyHomeBlinds is Marcus Forrester, our founder and our main window treatment consultant. Having over 10 years of real-world experience in custom window coverings throughout the Maryland, DC, and Virginia region, Marcus has assisted hundreds of homeowners in finding the right solution to their windows, whether it is a simple, cordless roller shade or a full custom plantation shutter.
Marcus is not someone who picks up the phone. It is he who comes to your home, sits down with your family to explain what you are seeking, takes some very accurate measurements, helps you select products that will work with the light, the style, and privacy considerations of your room. He then makes a follow up to ensure that all is okay.
What distinguishes Marcus is the attitude he takes in all his jobs: they are patient, honest, and thorough. He has been caught spending an hour with a client simply discussing options since he believes the right option is more valuable than a quick sale. Customers who called him in 2014 and are still calling him today, are precisely the type of trust we have established this business on.
Marcus’s areas of expertise include
- Tailor faux wood and hardwood blinds
- Plantation shutters (with energy-efficient options that qualify with the 30% Federal Tax Credit)
- Insulation and sound mitigation with cellular and honeycomb shades
- Motorized, smart home-interested window treatments
- Specialty windows – arches, skylights, French doors, and sliding glass doors
- Full-room design consultation regarding the choice of colour, fabric and finish
“Marcus is just the best professional in the field of blinds and drapes on our windows. He is sincere and honest, and gets all the work done before the time. We have been working with him since 2014.”

Our Promise to Every Customer
We have created BuyHomeBlinds due to the fact that we felt that homeowners were being overcharged, underserved or given products that did not match what they were shown in a showroom. This is what we promise each and every customer:
Honest pricing. We do not impose any unseen charges or charge high prices when we pay you a visit. You have a transparent, line-by-line estimate at the point of sale – and we strive to undercut the price that you will see in the large box retailers to the same quality products.
Real expertise. We do not market things that we are unfamiliar with. All products in our product line have been researched, tested and chosen because we think that it will deliver real value. When we prescribe something, it is because it is right in your home – not because it has the best margin.
One on one service, end-to-end. You call the same person when you make your first phone call to the time when you install it. No miscommunication, no hand-offs. Nothing but the steady, dependable service of one who is familiar with your project, inside and outside.
Work we stand behind. A limited lifetime warranty applies to all of our products to the original buyer. When we are not doing it right, we make it right. That is our guarantee – no exceptions.
Products from the Names You Can Trust
We collaborate with the most renowned manufacturers in the window treatment business to deliver to you products that are built to last, designed to impress, and priced to be affordable.
With our supplier relationships, which have been built over a history of more than a decade, we are able to offer you competitive pricing on the same high-end brands that you would find in the up-market showrooms, but at a fraction of the cost.
Our trusted brand partners include:
- Norman Window Fashions
- Hunter Douglas
- Alta Window Fashions
- Springs Window Fashions
- Phifer Sheerweave (solar shade fabrics)
- Regions Bank financing (for larger projects — 0% interest options available)
You need the coziness of real hardwood blinds, the sleek lines of faux wood, the energy efficiency of cellular shades, the traditional elegance of plantation shutters, we have the entire assortment – and we can assist you in taking a sample, before you leap.
