People often ask us what blinds cost. The honest answer is that it depends on a handful of things, and the quickest way to a real figure is a measured quotation. Here is what moves the price, so you can compare quotations fairly.
Size
Bigger windows use more fabric and bigger mechanisms. A wide patio door costs more to dress than a small bathroom window, whatever the style.
Type of blind
Roller, vertical, Roman, wooden, pleated and day and night blinds are built differently, so they price differently. See roller or vertical blinds for how two common styles compare.
Fabric
Fabrics vary by weight, finish and performance. Blackout, thermal and wipeable fabrics are made differently from simple light-filtering ones. Choosing blind fabrics explains the categories.
Controls and extras
A chain, a cordless spring system or a motor all affect price. Blind controls explained and motorised blind basics go through the choices.
Fitting and the window itself
Awkward shapes, bays, tall windows and roof windows take more care to measure and make. Perfect Fit and roof-window blinds use specific frames or kits, covered in Perfect Fit compatibility.
How to compare quotations
- Check each quotation covers the same windows, fabrics and controls.
- Ask whether measuring and fitting are included.
- Ask what happens if a measurement is wrong.
- Ask how long delivery takes.
