Before you hire
Most blinds and curtain businesses in New Zealand measure, make and install, so the quote you compare is for the whole job, not the fabric. Ask whether measuring and installation are included, what the lead time is from order to fitting, and what happens if a made-to-measure blind arrives the wrong size, because custom goods are hard to return. If you have young children, ask for cordless or wand-operated blinds: a mandatory safety standard for corded window coverings was announced in June 2026 and will apply to new products after a one-year transition.

Installers leave sites tidy, and the quote-to-installation timeline is short enough that several customers noted the turnaround as a standout.

Before you hire a blinds and curtain installer on the North Shore
Drawn from 227 customer reviews collected for this page. The first answer is what it costs.
What do made-to-measure blinds and curtains typically cost in New Zealand? expand_more
Basic made-to-measure roller blinds run roughly $80 to $200 per window installed, with sunscreen and blockout options sitting at the affordable end. Blockout or dual roller blinds with better fabric quality push into the $150 to $350 range per window.
Lined curtain pairs for a single window land between $200 and $600 installed, with premium fabrics, pinch pleat heading, and longer drops adding significant cost. Plantation shutters are the most expensive option, from around $800 to $1,500 per window for PVC or composite, with timber costing more.
What protects me when I order custom blinds or curtains, and are corded blinds safe? expand_more
Made-to-measure goods are still covered by the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, meaning the product must be of acceptable quality, fit for the purpose you described, and match any sample shown, but you cannot return a correctly made item simply because you changed your mind. Before paying a deposit, confirm in writing the exact measurements, fabric, colour, and which side the controls fall on, and ask the supplier directly what they will do if the blind arrives the wrong size.
On cord safety, a mandatory product safety standard for corded window coverings was announced on 30 June 2026 by the Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, to be made under the Fair Trading Act 1986, accepting Australian, Canadian, EU and US standards, with a one-year transition period once regulations are finalised, but it is not yet in force. Eight children have died from cord strangulation in New Zealand since 2008, so MBIE Product Safety guidance recommends cordless, wand or motorised blinds where young children live, and fitting cord cleats or tensioners on any existing corded blinds.
How do I choose between blinds, curtains and shutters for warmth and light? expand_more
Lined curtains hung close to the wall and fitted with a pelmet deliver the most heat retention for the money, making them the practical insulation upgrade in older New Zealand homes where draughts around the window frame are the main problem. Blockout roller blinds work well in bedrooms where you need darkness and a neat profile, but reviewers who had them fitted to sliding doors noted that fit at the edges matters, and a poorly fitted blind leaves a gap that lets in both light and cold air. Sunscreen rollers suit living areas where you want glare reduced without losing the view, while shutters are the durable long-term option that handles condensation better than fabric because moisture does not sit in the material.
What are the warning signs of a blinds or curtain company you should not use? expand_more
- –A consultant who fails to reply to emails, calls or texts for weeks after a home visit is a reliable sign the project will be poorly managed through to installation.
- –Hidden fees that only appear after you have committed to a deposit should prompt you to walk away and seek an itemised written quote elsewhere.
- –Blinds or curtains arriving the wrong size or in the wrong fabric, met with a dispute rather than a prompt no-cost remake, signals the business does not stand behind its measuring guarantee.
- –A sales representative who gives incorrect installation advice and then responds to your complaint by immediately offering a refund rather than a solution suggests limited product knowledge and no interest in resolution.
- –Unexplained delays well past the quoted lead time, with no proactive communication from the business, often precede further problems at installation.
- –A company that drills into surfaces or makes structural changes without explicit written consent from the customer is one to avoid.
What should you ask before ordering blinds or curtains? expand_more
- –Ask whether the quoted price covers measuring, supply and installation as a single figure, or whether any of those are charged separately.
- –Confirm the lead time in writing and ask what the business will do, and whether there is any cost to you, if that deadline slips.
- –Ask what the remake policy is if a blind or curtain arrives the wrong size or in the wrong fabric, and whether that is written into the agreement.
- –Check whether the blinds are cordless, wand-operated or motorised, and if corded, ask whether tensioners or cleats are included, particularly if children live in or visit the home.
- –Request a full-size fabric sample to view in your own home lighting before you finalise the order, since showroom lighting changes how colour and opacity read.
- –Ask what the deposit amount is, when the balance falls due, and whether the business can provide references or examples of work similar in scale to your project.

How are the top blinds & curtain installers on the North Shore chosen? expand_more
We build this page from Google Maps results for blinds & curtain installers on the North Shore. Each one is scored on its public rating and review record. Businesses outside the area, or whose reviews describe a different line of work, are left out, and a business whose main Google category is a different trade is held back until a person has checked what it does. A business whose website no longer resolves and that has had no Google review for six months is treated as dormant and left off the page until either changes. Every category and city is rechecked on a rolling cycle, about every two to three months. A location with a subscribing business is rechecked every month, and the whole page updates with it. See how we rank for the full method.
