What Happens During a Free Home Blinds Consultation?

Booking your first appointment can feel like a big step. Here's exactly what to expect, from the moment you book to the day your blinds are fitted — across Peterborough, Leicester, and Luton & Bedford.

Advisor visiting a customer's home for a blinds consultation

Every order starts the same way, whether it's a single roller blind for a kitchen window or a full house of made-to-measure shutters: a free, no-obligation visit to your home. No call-centre quote, no guessing your own measurements — just an advisor, your windows, and a set of real fabric samples to compare in your own light.

Before Your Visit

You book online or by phone, choosing a time that suits you — including evenings after 6pm or weekends, available on request. There's nothing to prepare beforehand: you don't need to measure your own windows or clear the room in advance, although moving furniture away from the window does help the visit go faster.

  • No obligation to buy — the visit itself is completely free
  • Morning, afternoon, evening, or weekend slots available
  • No need to measure anything yourself beforehand

During the Visit

Your advisor brings full fabric swatch books so you can see and feel real materials against your own walls and lighting, rather than guessing from a screen. They take exact professional measurements of every window you're covering, and talk you through which product and operation style suits each room. The average visit lasts 30 to 60 minutes, and you'll leave with an instant, no-obligation quote valid for 7 days.

  • Professional measurements taken for you, on the spot
  • Full swatch books, not just photos or a catalogue
  • Instant quote, valid for 7 days

After the Visit

If you're happy to go ahead, a minimum deposit of 50% confirms your order, paid by bank transfer or PayPal (we don't currently accept cheques). Your blinds are then custom manufactured to your exact measurements in 7 to 14 working days, and fitting is typically arranged within 1 to 4 weeks depending on the product and season. An adult over 18 needs to be present at fitting to approve the work and settle the remaining balance.

  • 50% deposit by bank transfer or PayPal
  • Manufactured in 7 to 14 working days
  • Fitted within 1 to 4 weeks, balance paid on the day
