The blinds are great and we were really happy with the whole service. The things that made us choose Thomas Sanderson instead of competitor companies were the quality of blinds, the way they operate, the way the blinds fit in the windows and the lack of cords. Also the features that Thomas Sanderson blinds had such as the toggles and pleats – basically the whole technology of the blinds. We had a really good installation – we have a slightly odd shaped roof in the conservatory and the installer explained the issues that we expected to experience which gave us plenty of time to think about how we wanted the blinds to work. Really happy.

17 January 2014

We had a good design service; the designer was very good and showed us examples of all the different blinds and shutters. Lovely installer and he was very, very thorough with the measurements and such a nice man. The blinds are absolutely gorgeous; everyone who sees them says how nice the conservatory now looks. We have got our conservatory back! The blinds have totally made a difference with the glare from the sun and we now feel the conservatory is extra secure as well as looking lovely.

17 January 2014

The window shutters are lovely and really nice. The design service was very efficient. We were very impressed with the installation service. The surveyor and installer were very good. The shutters enhance the room and are really ideal for privacy.

The shutters are absolutely wonderful. We love them. They are stunning and they make the room – so we are extremely pleased with them. We were extremely happy with the whole service – we have been customers of Thomas Sanderson before so we knew what to expect and we weren’t let down

31 October 2013

We are extremely happy with the shutters. The installer was a very clean, neat and tidy worker – he was very efficient and professional. No problems at all. The end result is just stunning…to anyone that sees them it is definitely a wow factor and we havent heard anyone not be impressed with them. No problems with operating the shutters, they are really easy, light and they don’t stick or anything like that.

Window treatments are often chosen to be the focal point around which a room is designed. Interior designers frequently work from the window blinds and interior walls to the middle of a living space. If your room already has a theme, then your designer can help you choose the right blinds for your windows.

Boutique window blinds, with their unique textures, stylish patterns and bold prints are a great way to take advantage of the privacy and light control benefits of blinds and the decorating style of draperies.

Inspiration for the home is often taken from our experiences – either from inspiration from another homes décor, or from our travels; taking in different cultures and colour palettes. Whichever excites us can inspire a breath of fresh air into our home.
