Do you fit blinds and shutters in splay and box bays?

Yes — both are part of standard bay configurations. Splay bays usually need 3 or 5 panels joined at the angle; square/box bays use 4 panels with corner posts. We measure each on-site before quoting.

How are roller blinds cleaned and maintained?

Most need only a soft brush, microfibre cloth, or vacuum-brush attachment monthly. Fabric blinds can be spot-cleaned; shutters and wooden blinds wipe down with a barely-damp cloth.

Will roller blinds work on leaded or stained glass?

Yes. We normally use face-fix rather than recess-fix so the dressing sits clear of the glazing — preserves the leaded panes and makes the install reversible.

What fabric should I choose for a bedroom?

A blackout fabric in a cassette headrail gives the darkest result, with side channels to seal the edges if total dark-out is essential.

Customers in Hythe usually shortlist us alongside one chain and one online quote — and once they've seen the survey difference, the decision tends to make itself.

Roller Blinds for bay windows: what we look for

Bay windows are the trickiest single window type to dress well. Get the panelling, joinery angles or fabric tension wrong and the whole bay looks unfinished — get it right and a bay becomes the focal point of the room.

Each panel or blind is measured individually so the line follows the bay rather than fighting it.
Square, splay and box bays each behave differently — survey decides the right approach.
Lead, sash and uPVC bays all have different fixing constraints to plan for at survey.
Pricing is per panel for shutters and per drop for blinds — we always show a clear per-window breakdown.
