Very professional service from start to finish. We wanted new blinds for the whole house. Thomas measured for us, provided a quote and fitted our blinds. Delighted with our new blinds. Would definitely recommend.

In May I ordered a full house set of blinds 5x large wooden Venetian, 2x velux, 1x roller and perfect fit for patio doors. to be fitted in June. I paid £1890.
When they came to fit, 1x roller was missing and 2 velux were the wrong size. Perfect fit not perfectly fitted. I was told it would be rectified 1 week. After chasing and chasing I was finally given a date for 3 weeks after original fitting date. They didn’t show up and when they finally arrived another 2 days later some of the blinds were still the wrong size.
No show 27/06 & 28/06. Excuses given. Agreed to come out 10.30am 29/06. 2x velux were the wrong size…again. Complained assured be handled with urgency & handed £50 cash as a good will gesture.
Chased for update on 06/07. Excuses made chased again 21/07 told blinds arriving 26/07 & will arrange fit date. Chased again! 29/07 - agreed to fit them on 04/08 between 1pm-5pm. 04/08 arrives, 2x perfect fit are wrong size!! Promised to call on 08/08 with new update!! No call& I had to chase AGAIN on 12/08. Was this time told be in on 16/08 & fit next day, then another call later & they are now not arriving until 19/08!! supposed to have someone out Saturday 20/08 to sort it all out…
Everyone in the office I have spoken to have been extremely helpful, the most recent lady helped me out so much. The fitter however, or sales guy Craig, whatever his role is this week. ! Please do not be fooled by anything he says. I have said I won’t allow him back in here to fit after how I have been treated by him. The lies & the attitude yet he blames the office staff! No care taken when in home either! Shocking! & better yet, the owner knows & said he didn’t care, I mean why would you when you making that much money!!
I know that the blinds come from a supplier so they can only ask that they come quicker but other that that, service has been shambolic to say the least from the company.

BUSINESS RESPONSE: Thanks for bringing this to my attention. We came out to measure your house and gave you a excellent deal. When the blinds arrived there was a couple of issues with our suppliers. We had this amended as quick as we possibly could. You requested 2 blinds for your small patio windows that are under the smallest allowance we can guarantee but we made them as you wanted all your patio to be the same. When they arrived they were running off slightly so we left them up and ordered replacements which are now installed and working fine. We also gave you a £200 compensation for the issues you had. Craig tried his best to rectify any issue as quickly as possible. I feel this is an unfair summary of our service. You had your windows covered and was only a minor problem. Also the picture you have put up is of the blinds bay, they are now fine. All the best.

Really disappointing experience. After a year of going back and forth still left with blinds that are different colour.
Been told it is the lighting but there is nothing different about the lighting or shading at the window. Blinds are directly next to one another, literally cms apart, in exact same direction.
Poor product
Poor service
Poor attitude to putting it right

Business Response: This review is very unfair and is not accurate. We installed your blinds and weeks later you called to say 1 was a different shade so we ordered you another blind and came and installed it. You were happy, then you called us back a few days later saying the problem was still there. When we returned our estimator took both blinds off and showed you the fabric was identical and moved them from window to window. We discovered that from where the light filters into the room there is a dark spot which creates the look that 1 is darker than the others. With brilliant white fabric this is a possible outcome. We can’t be responsible for Mother Nature. We are very sorry this has a happened but it’s only a slight colour difference that can’t be avoided. All the best.

Very happy with the work that was done. The price and quality of the blinds were very competitive and the installation went smoothly due to the friendliness and expertise of the installer.

Just getting around the leaving this review for blinds we had fitted the week leading up to Christmas. We had I’m sure his name was John and his son for both fitting and delivery/ installation and each time they provided amazing service. They were so professional whilst friendly and it was lovely to have them completing this job, will defo continue to recommend and use in future!
