A few useful answers
Before you enquire
Can I request samples before choosing?
Yes. Shortlist up to 12 finish and tape selections and submit them with your enquiry. AdamsBlinds confirms availability, the sample format and any sample or delivery charge before arranging despatch.
Are wooden blinds blackout blinds?
A Venetian blind is not a sealed blackout system. Light can pass between slats, through cord holes and around the edges. Tell us if strong room darkening is a priority so we can discuss the complete window treatment.
Can every finish be made in both slat widths?
No. Essential is listed in 35 mm and 50 mm, and Fauxwood availability varies by finish. Bamboo, Gloss, Perfect Grain and Soft Grain are listed in 50 mm. Each finish page shows its current listed widths.
Can motorised blinds raise, lower and tilt?
It depends on the arrangement. A tilt-only motor changes the angle of the slats. A compatible lift-and-tilt system also raises and lowers the blind. We confirm the exact functions, power and controls for your quotation.
Is the initial estimate free?
Initial estimates by email or WhatsApp are free. Surveys are usually free too. If a survey is chargeable, the £150 fee including VAT is agreed before booking and deducted from a subsequent order.
Do you offer supply only?
Yes. Supply-only orders and UK delivery can be quoted. Confirm the finished dimensions, collection, colour, slat width and controls before ordering. The usual £500 minimum concerns full supply-and-installation projects, with exceptions considered individually.
How long will my blinds take?
Standard blinds are typically estimated at two to four weeks, but the actual product, finish and programme are confirmed with your quotation. Estimates are not guaranteed delivery or fitting dates.
Is an appointment booked when I submit the form?
No. Your submission is an appointment request. The team reviews the project and offers dates; a visit is confirmed directly with you.
Can I visit the Birmingham address?
The registered address is for administration only and is not open to customers. Contact the team to discuss samples or an agreed site visit.
Can you repair a blind bought elsewhere?
Our repair and aftercare service covers AdamsBlinds-supplied products. We can discuss a new replacement blind where appropriate.
