Early Morning Preparations

The day starts early for our MarQi installation team. By 7:00 AM, team members gather at our Elk Grove Village corporate office, located at 1620 Jarvis Ave. After a quick team meeting to review the day’s schedule and discuss any special instructions for the installations, the crew prepares their tools and equipment. Each member checks their inventory of blinds and shades, ensuring that everything is ready for the day’s installations.

Loading the Work Vehicle

Once the meeting is complete, the team loads their work vehicle with the necessary materials, including various types of blinds such as roller shades, zebra shades, and motorized systems. The crew takes special care to secure the products during transit, ensuring they arrive at each location in pristine condition. The team is equipped with all the tools they need, from drills and screwdrivers to measuring tapes and levelers, ensuring efficiency on-site.

First Installation: A Modern Home in Oak Park

The first stop of the day is a modern home in Oak Park, where the team has been contracted to install custom motorized shades. Upon arrival, the crew is greeted by the homeowner, who is excited to see the transformation of their living space. The team takes a moment to discuss the installation process with the homeowner, answering any questions and ensuring they are comfortable with the plan.

After measuring the windows to confirm dimensions, the team carefully unpacks the shades and prepares for installation. With years of experience under their belts, the crew works efficiently, installing the motorized shades with precision. They connect the Somfy-powered motorization system, demonstrating how the shades can be controlled via a remote or smart home system. The homeowner is thrilled with the results, and the team takes a moment to show them how to operate their new window treatments.

Second Installation: Commercial Space in Downtown Chicago

Next, the team heads to a bustling commercial space in downtown Chicago, where they have been tasked with installing blackout shades in a conference room. Upon arrival, they are greeted by the property manager, who emphasizes the importance of light control for presentations. The installation team quickly assesses the space and begins the process of installing the shades.

Working together, they measure and cut the shades to fit the windows perfectly, ensuring a sleek and professional look. The team pays close attention to detail, making sure that the blackout shades meet the client’s needs for energy efficiency and light control. Once installed, they test the shades to ensure they function smoothly and provide the desired blackout effect. The property manager is impressed with the professionalism and efficiency of the installation.

Lunch Break and Team Reflections

After a busy morning, the team takes a well-deserved lunch break. They often gather at a local eatery, sharing stories about their installations and discussing techniques for overcoming challenges they encountered. This camaraderie not only strengthens their teamwork but also fosters a supportive environment where they can learn from each other’s experiences.

Final Installation: A Family Home in Schaumburg

In the afternoon, the team travels to a family home in Schaumburg, where they are set to install light-filtering screen shades in the kitchen and dining area. The homeowner has expressed a desire for a bright and airy feel while still maintaining privacy. After discussing their options, the team selects the perfect shades that will meet the homeowner’s needs.

As they work, the team emphasizes safety, using child-safe cordless designs to ensure that the environment is safe for the homeowner’s young children. The installation goes smoothly, and the team takes the time to explain the functionality of the shades, ensuring the homeowner knows how to operate them effectively. Once again, the satisfaction of the homeowner is evident, and the team leaves with a sense of accomplishment.

Wrapping Up the Day

As the sun begins to set, the team heads back to the MarQi Blinds corporate office to unload tools and equipment. They take a moment to reflect on the day’s successes and any challenges they faced along the way. Each installation is an opportunity for growth, and the team understands that their work contributes to the overall satisfaction of their clients.
