Vertical blinds and panel blinds, because they draw sideways and you can walk through them. Vertical blinds give tilt control; panel blinds look cleaner and more contemporary.

Aluminium venetians, faux wood venetians and roller blinds in moisture-resistant fabric. Avoid real timber and unlined fabric near steam.

We professionally clean outdoor blinds. If you're not sure whether we can clean yours, contact us and ask.

Each blind is quoted by its size (width × drop). Tell us how many blinds you have and roughly how big they are, and we'll confirm the price with you before we book a visit.

Multiply the blind's width by its drop (height), both in metres. A patio blind 3m wide with a 2.5m drop is 7.5m².

Rinse outdoor blinds with clean water every few weeks, and have them deep-cleaned when grime, pollen or cloudiness builds up. Homes near the sea need it sooner, because salt collects on the blinds.

Rinsing and gentle washing with mild soapy water, yes. Scrubbing clear PVC, using solvents or rolling blinds up while wet can scratch, cloud or mark them, so a deep clean is safer done professionally.
