Meet the owners

Rich & Tina Sumampow

The Blind Biz, LLC is a Michigan-based business, family owned by Rich Sumampow. Since starting in 2002, The Blind Biz has doubled in size almost every year. Rich handles every aspect of the business, from the initial call to the installation and beyond.

Rich grew up in Gaylord, Michigan, and graduated from Michigan State with a degree in advertising. After working for the family blind business, he learned everything about window treatments and has grown The Blind Biz into one of the most referred window treatment businesses in Metro Detroit.

In July 2011 he married the love of his life, Tina. Together they enjoy life and have fun with their three kids.

Our story

A family business that does the driving to Warren

Since 2002, The Blind Biz has worked the way a lot of Warren families appreciate: straightforward, no frills, and no paying for things that don’t make your windows better. We never opened a showroom. Instead, we load up sample books and full-size samples and bring them to your living room, where you can hold a slat or a fabric against your own walls and see how it looks with the light that actually comes through your windows.

Skipping the showroom is only part of how we keep prices down. We don’t pay decorator commissions, and we don’t send your order to a subcontractor to install. Our own in-house installers do every job, and installation is free. Those savings are why we can promise the best value in Metro Detroit, guaranteed.

We carry 11 product lines, from simple aluminum mini blinds to motorized shades. We are a Hunter Douglas authorized dealer and a Norman Window Fashions certified partner. Every visit includes free laser measuring and an itemized quote on the spot, with no pressure to decide that day.
