Beautiful shutter blinds fitted by Gary. Really nice bloke, came and did the measuring up, then fitted them perfectly. Gary cleared up the little bit of dust from from the fitting. Hayley was lovely and very helpful. Would recommend Capricorn Blinds and will go back to them for future blinds.

We had a positive experience with Capricorn blinds. The gentleman who came to measure up and fit the blinds Richard was a lovely man who took pride in his work. Hayley in the office was very helpful and got us a good price on the blinds. We are happy with the end result.

We've used Capricorn a couple of times now. We've always found Sam is easy to deal with having needed to re-work different quotes for us until we settled upon the perfect shutters we wanted for our new home. Gary who fitted them did an amazing job and takes real pride in his work, we gave him a key and let him get on with it - that's not something we do on a whim. The shutters we've gone for really make the house look special and are helping to keep it warm/cool (depending on how they're adjusted) as we'd hoped. Overall, we've had a really positive experience, in fact this was the only part of our house renovation that's gone without a hitch and hence we wouldn't hesitate to use Capricorn Blinds again or indeed recommend them to anyone looking to purchase blinds or shutters for their home.

Hayley provided great service in helping us decide which blind would best suit our bathroom. Measuring was completed a couple of days later and modification suggested to our selected blind to suit our installation. Fitting was just over two weeks later to suit our schedule. The installer was very quick and tidy, even when having to deal with tough porcelain tiles. The blinds look great.

Capricorn Blinds were fantastic from start to finish. They visited the office within a couple of days to measure all windows and then provided a quote within another couple of days. When it came to installation, they were super flexible around our busy office schedule and get everything done in 1 and half days! Thank you so much. Blinds looks fantastic and of great quality. 10/10 would highly

"Very pleased with the service I received today. Explained well how to best use my blinds and they look lovely. Fitter was very friendly and patient. The fitter also went that extra mile as I had some new french doors fitted and my old verticals needed changing to open doors from other side. He very kindly adjusted that for me. Thank you."
