What type of blinds should I get?

When it comes to blinds, the right choice depends on your space, your style, and what you need them to do.

• For privacy without blocking the light: Go for roller blinds or Venetian blinds - great for bathrooms and living rooms.

• For a modern look with easy operation: Vertical blinds or integral blinds work well, especially in larger spaces and sliding doors.

• For fully shutting out the light and keeping the heat in (or out): Blackout blinds or Roman blinds are a good choice for bedrooms.

• For managing glare in a home office or TV room: Day and night blinds or wooden blinds can help balance light and privacy.

Still not sure? Reach out to a blind supplier in or near your local area, who can show you samples and help you weigh up the options that’ll work best in your home.

How long does it take to install blinds?

A straightforward blind installation usually takes 30 minutes to 1 hour per window - but it depends on the type of blinds and how many you’re having fitted.

• Simple roller or Venetian blinds are quick and easy, only taking half an hour or so.

• Motorised or made-to-measure blinds might take a bit longer, especially if you need to drill into tricky surfaces.

The good news? A local blind fitter will be able to give you a rough idea of timings upfront. No hanging around. No unexpected delays.

Should I get blinds or curtains?

It’s not always a straight swap between blinds and curtains - each has its perks.

Blinds are great for:

• Clean, modern lines

• Controlling light levels

• Small or awkward spaces

Curtains are ideal for:

• Softening a room

• Insulating bigger windows

• Creating a cosier feel

Many homes now use both - say, blackout blinds for function and curtains for style. A blind supplier can help you decide what works for your space and budget.

Can I install my own blinds?

Yes, you can. For many types of blind, all you need is a drill, a tape measure and a bit of patience. 

Once you’ve chosen your blinds from a blind supplier, you can either install them yourself or hire a blind fitter. Many companies offer both blind supplying and fitting as an all-in-one service. 

There are some advantages to getting your blinds installed by a fitter:

• It ensures a neat finish, especially if they’re made-to-measure blinds that need accurate fitting

• Blind fitters generally have more experience installing them in complex windows, such as bay windows or conservatory blinds

• It’s often quicker, as a blind fitter has all the know-how and tools at their disposal already

How much do blinds cost?

According to our figures, the average blind costs somewhere between £30 and £127. 

The exact price you pay will depend on a number of factors, in particular the type of blind and the size of your window, and whether it needs to be custom made. Bear in mind too that this the cost to supply a blind - fitting carries an extra fee.
