FAQ — blinds & curtains Newtown
What blinds work best for privacy on busy Newtown streets?
Venetian and blockout roller blinds give precise privacy control — useful on ground-floor front rooms facing Pakington Street. Plantation shutters suit street-facing bay windows.
Can you custom-fit blinds to Newtown's older window sizes?
Yes. We measure on site and manufacture to your exact openings — including out-of-square frames common in period homes.
How do I clean blinds and curtains?
Most blinds wipe clean with a damp cloth; honeycomb and fabric Romans may need occasional vacuuming. We provide care instructions at handover.
What's best for energy efficiency in Newtown?
Honeycomb blinds and lined blockout curtains reduce heat transfer — a practical upgrade for older glazing and west-facing glass.
