High-Tech Screens & Shades began in 2001 with the mission:
Provide the highest quality screening and shading products and treat people the way we’d like to be treated ourselves.
These are both the core values of founders Rick and Peggy Hutton and staff.
We promote a culture of service — listening, educating, and advising our clients in order to provide solutions tailored to their residential or commercial environment, lifestyle, traditional or contemporary aesthetic, and budget.
Expert Knowledge & Experience
For over 20 years we have worked with architects, engineers, builders, and homeowners throughout the Bay Area. We serve both the residential and commercial markets with a staff of highly competent sales associates and product installers. Their longevity with the company brings in-depth experience and knowledge of our brands to your projects. We are truly experts at “conditioning” environments with retractable shading products for doors, windows, and outside living areas. We are also certified platinum in Somfy motorized systems for screens, shades, and awnings.
Owners Rick and Peggy Hutton are your trusted advisors whose focus has always been to research and source the best in both form and function in their solutions and product brands. Rick’s technical background in the engineering and building industry and Peggy’s customer relations, business, and design expertise bring high value, quality, and versatility to each project.
Customer-Focused
To us, you are Number One. Whomever you speak to, you can be confident our expert team is listening with your best interest in mind. Often multiple product and design solutions can satisfy a client’s project needs. When this happens, we draw from our experience to guide clients in selecting the most fitting, cost-effective options for their investment.
We bring our customers throughout Marin, Napa, San Francisco, Sonoma, CA and beyond unbeatable expertise, service, and our favorite retractable screen and shading products in the industry. Everything we sell is custom-fitted to your space and professionally installed by our skilled technicians.
But there’s more…We ensure your investment is protected by offering the best warranties in the business!

MORE ABOUT THE OWNERS
Rick Hutton wanted early on to make a difference with cleaner water and the air we breathe. He pursued an Environmental Studies degree with an emphasis in Hydrology. After working for two Environmental Engineering Consulting Firms, he knew the demand for screen and shade products would surge with changes in modern architectural trends and energy policy. To serve this growing need, in 2001 Rick opened his business sourcing innovative, high-performance shading products that condition indoor and outdoor living environments. High-Tech Screens & Shades was born.
Peggy Hutton earned a Business Management degree and had a career with a respected Insurance Company as a claims adjuster, helping people put their lives back together. Her Customer Service, Home Damage Assessment experience, Business Management, and natural Design acumen lead her to join Rick at High-Tech Screens & Shades. Peggy serves as chief design consultant.

Green-Oriented
Our slogan, “Living Green with High-Tech Screens,” is integral to our service— helping residential and commercial clients condition their environments for more comfortable, energy-efficient, and glare-free living.
Natural “passive cooling” ventilation and shading that Screens, Shades, and Awnings provide during warm months lower energy use and expense. In cool months, Awnings retract when you want sunshine, and Solar Shades insulate your heated interiors.
The nexus of our collective experience, curated product selection, and service-driven, green-living focus is the difference that sets High-Tech Screens & Shades apart in the marketplace.

Rick and Peggy are extremely professional and provide superb customer service. We installed large motorized awnings for our backyard.
