    “Disaster Guy,” a new television series on A&E Networks, is not your average home makeover show. When disaster restoration expert Steve Frasher, who has spent a lifetime rebuilding houses destroyed by tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and fires, brings together an army of builders to resurrect homes destroyed by natural disasters, the race to rebuild lives begins. To help support the renovation effort, YourBlinds has teamed up with A&E Networks to provide custom window shades and blinds for all the homes showcased in season one of “Disaster Guy.”

    In the pilot episode of “Disaster Guy,” which premiered September 10, Frasher and his team of builders connect with the Cameron family whose Brownstown, Michigan home was destroyed by fire after being struck by lightning. With only seven days to completely rebuild the home, the “Disaster Guy” team relied heavily on its suppliers to deliver on time and to specification.

    “When A&E approached us about donating blinds to deserving homeowners in need, we felt compassion for these families and wanted to help give them back some of the peace of mind that the natural disaster robbed them of. YourBlinds is excited to donate to these families this season," said Linda Lee, CEO. "Even though this is the first season of Disaster Guy, this show has the makings of a very special, heartwarming connection with families across the country.”

    Kevin Weinstock, designer for Disaster Guy enthusiastically endorsed YourBlinds as he said, “YourBlinds was easy to work with and very professional. From beginning to end, I would request what I needed and within the week’s time it was here. The product quality was phenomenal and installation hardware was super simple to use, which made my job easier at final crunch time. I will definitely use YourBlinds for my own home as well as in my clients’ homes. I would highly recommend YourBlinds to anyone looking for window coverings.”
