The Trusted Saskatoon directory team are excited to welcome and give the ' Thumbs Up' to the latest Saskatoon Window Coverings expert  , and it is a business we are very familiar with - Made In The Shade Blinds Saskatoon.

The owner of the Saskatoon Made In The Shade franchise is Heather Boyko, and before starting her business in September 2013 she was the Trusted Saskatoon consultant! 

When she was out and about visiting business owners as their Trusted Saskatoon consultant Heather saw a gap in the Saskatoon window coverings market, which she believed she could fill. As Saskatoon continues to boom and grow,  new houses are being built on every corner of the city and each of them require window coverings! As people improve, renovate and re decorate their homes they are surprised how many options are out there for blinds & other window coverings,  and as shopping for those the traditional way from store to store is very time consuming Heather felt a mobile service was definitely the way to go ....at Made in The Shade they come to you at home, and fit in with your busy schedule, and as there are minimum overheads the savings are fantastic!!

 Heather knows what it takes to be a Trusted Saskatoon partner and as soon as she had served 25 clients she applied to be a Trusted Saskatoon partner. To be a Trusted partner the businesses must pass a strict verification process, which includes the Trusted team speaking and surveying clients ( pass or fail - we are looking for excellent not average), checking licenses and insurance and looking at other reference sources. Made In The Shade Saskatoon passed with flying colors and Heather's clients expressed their admiration for the high level of customer service they experienced, read testimonials from her clients here on the Made In The Shade website. Heather knows that service is the most important part of her business and when combined with great prices it really is a win win situation for her clients!

Preferred Collision and Glass shares a tip on What to do when you are in a Collision: 

When experiencing a collision, sometimes life can become very stressful and overwhelming when you are least expecting it to. 

Sometimes they can occur when driving conditions are poor, such as when the roads are icy when there is black ice present, and when there is a snowstorm, or when it is very windy.

When traffic collisions seem to happen so quickly, it can be hard to recall the details later. 

The most important thing to do in the case of a traffic collision is to remain calm, although sometimes this is a task that is easier said than done. If someone is hurt, if you think any other driver may be guilty of a Criminal Code offence, such as drunk driving, or if there is significant property damage, you must always call the police.

In the case of an accident, if no one is hurt please try to move your car to the side of the road where it will not obstruct traffic. If your car is not mobile, turn on your hazard lights or use cones, flares, or warning triangles.

When the collision occurs, write down as much information as you can about the accident so that you don’t forget it when you are asked to repeat it later. When filing a claim with your local SGI insurance outlet, you will be asked at that time to recall details about the incident. While speaking with the other driver or drivers, if one or more was involved, write down their contact information, such as name, phone number, and address, as well as their insurance broker if applicable, and if there were any witnesses, write down their information as well. If you can, you may sketch the accident, noting the position and directions of the cars, or use a disposable camera if you have one.

Though it can be difficult and stressful to be in a car accident, remember that these accidents can and do happen to anyone. Always be vigilant and watchful of unsafe road conditions, and do not drive if you feel uncomfortable doing so.If you are involved in a collision, please call SGI. Once SGI has done all the preliminary paperwork,we can help you with all your collision repairs and needs. Please call us or simply bring your car down to the shop at 659 51st St E and we’ll handle the concerns of your vehicle. We can’t prevent an accident, but we can make your vehicle look like one never happened.

Preferred Collision and Glass shares a tip on Icy Road Conditions:

This time of year, road conditions-in Saskatoon and rural Saskatchewan-can be very icy and sometimes, it can even be tough to walk on the road without slipping and falling. Imagine what being on the road with a car is like! A car is both fragile and rugged. One wrong move on an icy road without the proper winter tires might have you in a fender-bender (or the ditch), but as well, a car must be winterized to survive in harsh winter weather conditions.

Driving on interchanges require extra-special attention and focus while driving because these often get salted and sanded less frequently than other main roads. While driving on main roads, such as the downtown core, that are often frequented by pedestrians, take extra care and go slowly in these areas, as these are often the iciest of areas. Sometimes leaving a few minutes early for work in the morning will get you ahead of the morning traffic rush, but sometimes it’s also necessary, for driving slow on icy roads so you’re not in a collision.

When on an icy road, if you feel yourself start to skid, don’t brake and don’t panic. If it is slippery, make sure you pump your brakes, also called “threshold” braking, until you come to a complete stop. Trying to see where black ice is, which is invisible, can be hard to do, so please make an effort to drive slowly and carefully at all times. Remember that if you are in a collision to remain calm
