Privacy, glare and a good fit

Those three things come up in almost every conversation we have with Milton customers, so this page is organised around them. We haven't made claims about the village's housing; that's something we'd look at in person.

Privacy

If you'd like daylight without being seen, look at Day & Night blinds, sheer and voile curtains or café-style shutters. Each keeps the view out in a different way, and some work well together. Our page on street-facing privacy goes further.

Glare

Low sun can make a room uncomfortable and screens hard to read. Internal blinds help, and for large or very sunny glazing it's worth reading about heat and glare before deciding. We'll be honest if external shading would be more effective than an internal blind.

Fit

A blind that's a few millimetres out can rub, leave light gaps or sit crooked. We measure every window ourselves, check for handles and obstructions, and fit to the frame or recess that suits it best. If you've had problems before, common installation mistakes explains what usually goes wrong.

After fitting

We'll show you how everything operates, including any child-safety devices. All internal blinds we supply are made to meet UK child-safety requirements.

Replacing blinds you already have

If you already have blinds that aren't working, we can look at them during the survey. Sometimes a crooked roller or a stiff mechanism is a fitting problem that can be corrected. Sometimes the fabric or components have simply reached the end of their life. We'll give you a straight answer on which it is. Our guide on how long made-to-measure blinds should last covers what affects their lifespan.

If we think repair is realistic, we'll say so, even though replacing is the bigger job for us. Where replacement makes sense, we'll explain what should last longer this time.

Questions we get asked

Will an internal blind stop a room overheating?

It can help, but internal blinds are limited because the heat has already come through the glass. For some windows, external shading is more effective; we'll say so if it is.

Do you fit the blinds yourselves?

Yes. We measure and fit, and show you how everything works, including the child-safety devices.
