Fitted blinds/curtains - recommendation please!


Recommended Posts

Hi all. I've bought a new property in the area and am looking to get blinds (or maybe curtains) measured up and fitted. I was going to go to Hillarys until I saw the shocking reviews online as well as the Watchdog coverage etc. Can anybody recommend anyone, either locally or nationally, who provides this service? And does so in a profesional and cost effective manner?! All help appreciated!

I used Tuiss online company because I liked the Sabine Reinhart prints. Quality is good, only thing on the roller blind I would have liked the screw fixing area to have had a cover so you can't see the screw heads but only a minor niggle. I also ordered vertical blinds for our bi-fold doors that unfortunately 2 of the slats had oil marks on but customer services dealt with it promptly and efficiently and I'm being sent a complete new set. They review well online, and these things do happen, so think I was just unlucky!

I highly recommend Jennifer from Rolls and Rems in Lewisham, she is great, offers a 10% discount if you quote East Dulwich Forum. She great at doing curtains, and she has someone who does blinds.

If you like contact her on 07838382722

Thanks

I was in the same situation as you last Autumn. I had used Hillarys to fit shutters in my previous property & they were fine.

In this property I used Bromley Blinds Ltd to measure, supply & fit a variety of Venetian blinds and roller blinds. I think they also do made to measure curtains.

They have good reviews & recommendations via EDF and I was very happy with the quote and with their service.

Here's an image of one of my blinds that I made for a client from the forum, there are other recommendations from some of my clients on this forum if you do a search. I am busy at present, so can't start immediately, but if it's not urgent, feel free to contact me on

Hi


If you are interested in roman blinds I make made to measure ones and am based locally. I am just starting my business but have made dozens of high quality,hand finished blinds and can send photos or you can view a few on my Facebook page. I have a textiles background and have been trained by my mother in law who has over 35 years experience in soft furnishings (BTW she has had to re-make some dreadful ones from Hillarys recently!). I am very reasonably priced and have an opening for next week, depending on the size of the project I can turn the job around in a week. I am based in Peckham but have family and friends in East Dulwich so am often around the area and can come and measure and do a free quote.


My link is below, if anyone is interested please contact me.

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
