Made to measure blinds & shutters
Bespoke blinds and shutters for Coventry homes, from post-war rebuilds to Victorian terraces in Earlsdon and new-build apartments in the city centre.
Window coverings tailored to Coventry homes
Coventry has one of the highest concentrations of terraced housing in England, with over 42% of homes being terraced properties, nearly double the national average. These homes typically feature narrower windows that benefit from space-saving solutions like roller blinds, perfect fit blinds, or cafe-style shutters that maximise light without sacrificing privacy on busy streets.
The city's 18 conservation areas, from the medieval Spon Street to the leafy avenues of Earlsdon, contain a rich mix of Victorian and Edwardian properties with original sash windows, bay windows, and period features. Our made-to-measure approach means every blind or shutter is built to the exact dimensions of these characterful openings.
With major developments like City Centre South and Friargate set to deliver thousands of new homes, Coventry is also a city of modern living. New-build properties with large format windows and open-plan layouts suit motorised blinds and full-height shutters that offer clean lines and smart home integration.
Products for Coventry homes
Window coverings recommended for the property types found across Coventry CV1-CV8.
Roller Blinds
Ideal for Coventry's terraced homes where space is at a premium. Compact cassette headrails sit flush in narrow window recesses, and blackout fabrics are popular for bedrooms facing streetlights on busy roads.
Perfect Fit Blinds
No-drill blinds that clip directly into uPVC window frames. A practical choice for the city's newer properties and conservatories, keeping window sills clear and providing a neat, integrated look.
Cafe-Style Shutters
Cover just the lower half of the window to block the view from the pavement while letting daylight flood in above. A popular choice for Earlsdon's ground-floor bay windows on residential streets.
Retractable Awnings
Extend your outdoor living space during summer months. Motorised options with wind sensors are well suited to Coventry's pub gardens, cafe terraces, and residential patios.
