Roller Blinds

Measured & fitted across Burscough, Ormskirk, Southport & Tarleton

Roller blinds are a single piece of fabric that rolls neatly onto a slim tube at the top of the window. They are the UK’s most popular blind because they suit almost any room, come in hundreds of fabrics and are one of the most affordable made-to-measure options.

Why choose a roller blind?

When it’s open, a roller blind almost disappears, so you get a clear view and lots of light. When it’s closed, it sits flat to the window and gives privacy without taking up space on the sill.

Because the fabric is one flat piece, it’s a great way to bring in a bold pattern or colour. It also works neatly behind curtains as a blackout layer.

Choosing the right fabric

Fabric is where roller blinds really earn their place. Blackout fabrics block light through the material for bedrooms and nurseries. Dimout fabrics take the glare off a sunny room while keeping a soft glow, and light-filtering fabrics keep a room bright while stopping people seeing straight in.

For kitchens and bathrooms, we have moisture-resistant fabrics that wipe clean and won’t go limp in steam. And because a roller blind is one flat panel, it shows off a pattern better than any other blind, from soft neutrals to bold prints.

Where roller blinds work best

Roller blinds suit almost any window, which is why many customers choose them for the whole house in one go. They’re a great fit for kitchens, bathrooms and children’s rooms, and they sit neatly behind curtains or under a pelmet as a practical extra layer.

They’re also one of the most affordable made-to-measure options, so you can dress several windows without stretching the budget.

Good to know

  • A standard roller blind leaves a small gap at each side, so some light gets in. For total blackout, look at blind screens.
  • Cords are fitted with child-safety devices as standard.
  • Choose blackout, dimout, light-filtering or moisture-resistant fabric to suit each room.
  • A reverse roll brings the fabric down over the front of the roller, which can help it clear window handles.

Roller Blinds: your questions answered

Are roller blinds blackout?

They can be. Choose a blackout fabric and the material itself blocks light, though a little may show around the edges. For a full seal, blind screens are the better choice.

Can roller blinds go in a bathroom?

Yes. We have moisture-resistant, wipe-clean fabrics made for bathrooms and kitchens.

Can you fit a roller blind behind curtains?

Yes. It’s a popular combination: the blind gives blackout and privacy while the curtains add warmth and style.

How much do made-to-measure roller blinds cost?

Roller blinds are one of the most affordable made-to-measure options. The price depends on the size of the window and the fabric you choose, so we give you an exact, itemised quote at your free home visit, with measuring and fitting included.

How do I clean a roller blind?

Most fabrics just need a light dust or a vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Moisture-resistant fabrics can be wiped with a damp cloth. We’ll tell you how to look after your chosen fabric when we fit it.

Should a roller blind roll over or under?

With a standard roll, the fabric hangs from the back of the roller, close to the window. With a reverse roll, it comes down over the front, which hides the tube and helps the blind clear handles. We’ll suggest the best option for your window.

Should a roller blind go inside or outside the recess?

Inside the recess looks neat and keeps the sill clear. Fitting it outside, so it overlaps the window, reduces light gaps around the edges, which is handy in bedrooms. We’ll recommend the best fit when we measure.

Are roller blinds safe for homes with children?

Yes. Blinds with cords or chains are supplied with child-safety devices to meet UK safety standards, and we fit them for you. For children’s rooms, cordless perfect fit blinds are also worth a look.

Will a roller blind fade in the sun?

All fabrics fade a little over time in strong sun, especially on south-facing windows. We’ll point out fabrics that hold up well in sunny rooms.

Can roller blinds go on French or patio doors?

Yes. A roller blind can be fitted to each door. For doors you open a lot, perfect fit roller blinds clip onto the door itself, so the blind doesn’t swing.

Can roller blinds be motorised?

Yes. We offer motorised roller blinds that raise and lower at the touch of a button. They’re ideal for tall or hard-to-reach windows, and with no cords they’re a great choice for children’s rooms.
