How a Roman blind is made

Every blind is made by hand in our workroom: the fabric is cut square to the pattern, lined, fitted with rods and cords, and checked before it comes to you.

Our making charge plus fabric, plus VAT. Everything is measured and fitted by us. As a guide, a Roman blind for a standard window is around £490 to £600 including a good fabric at about £45 a metre, and a pair of lined curtains for a standard window around £545 to £675. You can choose any fabric, or use your own. We measure before anything is made and confirm the price first.

Questions we are often asked

Do you come out and measure?

Yes. Once the guide price works for you, we book a free measuring visit. We measure up, help you choose fabric and then send you a confirmed price.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Sussex, including Brighton, Hove, Lewes, Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, Eastbourne, Seaford, Worthing and the villages in between. Further afield, just ask.

How long does it take?

Usually three to four weeks from accepting the price, depending on the fabric. We will give you a date when we order.

Can you make blackout or interlined curtains and blinds?

Yes. Every curtain and blind can be lined, blackout lined or interlined for extra warmth and a fuller look.

Can I use my own fabric?

Often, yes. Tell us what you have when you book the measuring visit and we will check there is enough and that it suits the job.

Do you fit poles and tracks?

Yes, when we are making your curtains. The pole or track is supplied at cost plus a small margin, with a fitting charge per window.
