Roman Blinds — cost & prices: what we look for
Honest pricing for blinds and shutters is hard to find online — most sites either hide the numbers or quote a single 'from' price that bears no relation to what you'll actually pay. Here's what really drives cost, and the realistic range for a typical East Kent home.
- Price is driven mainly by window size, material, and operating system — not by brand markup.
- Plantation shutters typically run £250–£450 per panel fitted; quality roller blinds £90–£220 per drop.
- Bay windows, motorisation and blackout cassettes add a predictable percentage rather than doubling the bill.
- Every quote we send is itemised per window so you can see exactly what each line costs and adjust spec if needed.
On a Hamstreet survey, this is what we look at
- Catalogue sizing forced into a non-square reveal — gaps you can see daylight through.
- Wrong fixing into render or lath-and-plaster — brackets pull within months.
- Cord-and-chain installs without break-away tensioners — fails current child-safety regs.
- Recess-fit on listed windows where face-fix was the right call — heritage issue waiting to happen.
The non-negotiables, every Hamstreet job
- We never quote without measuring.
- We never substitute a fabric or finish without showing you first.
- We never leave site until every blind or shutter is operated and checked.
- We never charge for site visits during the warranty period.
