Living with unusually shaped glazing, especially in places like a bedroom or a conservatory can leave you wanting shade and privacy. Although it can be difficult to visualise shading solutions in your head. People often require example photos of similar work so they can trust we’ve completed complex work like theirs before. However, we go above and beyond to make sure you know what you’re getting and will be 100% satisfied with your custom window shades. How do we do this? With a free quotation appointment which includes a home visit.
What do we do at our Custom Window Shades quotation appointment?
Once you enquire with us then your local sales advisor will be in touch shortly to book a date with you. You can enquire via our website, over the phone or via social media.
On a date that works for you, your sales advisor will come to you and help you discuss all your options. Showing you a selection of fabrics and colours. But we don’t just talk at you, we show you how they work and how they would look against your glazing. Below is a demonstration of a sales advisor showing how our gable blinds operate.
By showing you the fabrics in person, you can compare them to other furnishings to see what looks best. If you’re looking to block out the sunlight, we can recommend you dim-out blinds. On the other hand, if you’re struggling to shade a unique window then we can explain and show you how we would help. Additionally, if you find your conservatory too cold then you can install our Duette® thermal blinds that have a honeycomb texture to trap heat and insulate your home. In person we are also able to show you how different fabric colours can change the light in your room, for example a yellow coloured fabric will give your room a warm tinge when it’s bright outside or red fabric will show the light filtering through as red.
Measuring Your Custom Window Shades
Our sales advisors take measurements of the glazing in your home, then come back to you with a price. These prices can vary depending on how many blinds you would like. As well as motorisation preference and the type of blind e.g. gable or lantern roof. Therefore the home visit is not only important to help you visualise the custom window shades in your home, but to give you an accurate price.
As you can see from the video below, we can fit blinds for triangle window shapes, standard large windows and customise them to whatever motorisation you would like. Whether that is remote control shades or simply manual literise® blinds.
