When you’re redecorating a room or moving into a new home, the convenience of online shopping is hard to resist. You can fill your virtual cart with furniture, lighting, and even new window blinds with a few clicks. But a different feeling takes over when you realise you need blinds that truly fit your home and your life.
Blinds are a long-term investment that must be precise, durable, and functional. That is why Excell Blinds, a local blinds shop Liverpool residents trust, offers a personal, local service that an online shopping cart simply can’t match. We serve both residential and commercial spaces across the Northwest, providing an expert service at an affordable price that guarantees a perfect fit every time.
What is the biggest mistake when measuring for blinds?
You might feel confident with a tape measure, but a window is rarely as straightforward as you think. Online measuring guides often give you simple instructions: measure the width and height. But what about the minor differences in your window frame from top to bottom? Or that tiny, almost invisible curve in your window sill? These small details make a big difference, causing blinds to hang unevenly, leave unsightly gaps, and allow light to leak in.
Homeowners frequently run into this issue with DIY blind installations.
An Excell Blinds expert knows what to look for. We provide free home or office visits where a member of our team will expertly measure your space, saving you the hassle. When they visit your home for a free consultation, they don’t just take one measurement. They measure the width and height of each window in multiple places, accounting for any handles, radiators, or other obstacles that a simple online guide might miss. This attention to detail ensures your blinds fit perfectly, with no gaps or alignment issues. You can’t replicate this level of precision on a website.

How can I be sure about a blind’s colour and material?
Buying blinds online means you must choose a material and colour based on a small photo on a screen. This can be misleading. A fabric that looks great on a computer might have a completely different texture in real life, and the colour you picked might clash with your wall paint when seen in your room’s natural light. You also can’t easily judge the material’s quality. You can’t feel the weight of a fabric or the smoothness of a Venetian slat.
With a free Excell Blinds home consultation, you avoid this problem. An expert will bring a wide range of samples with them, allowing you to see and feel the materials in your own space. You can also browse our website or visit our showroom in Liverpool to see our wide selection. You hold up different colours to your walls, feel the fabric texture, and see how the light interacts with the material. This ensures you choose a product that looks and feels exactly right.
How do you choose the right blinds for your home?
Online shopping offers products, but it lacks a problem-solving approach. For example, a website might show you a nice-looking roller blind, but it won’t tell you if that blind is suitable for a bedroom that needs total darkness or a bathroom that needs a moisture-resistant fabric. Choosing the right blind depends on your lifestyle and how you use the room.
The Excell Blinds team offers a consultative approach, asking about your daily routine and what you want to achieve with your blinds. By understanding your needs, they can recommend the perfect blind type, whether it is a blackout roller blind for a perfect night’s sleep, a moisture-resistant Venetian blind for a bathroom, or a decorative option for a living room. We also offer elegant wooden Venetian blinds that add a classic warmth, versatile day and night blinds for ultimate light control, and Perfect Fit blinds that clip directly into your uPVC frames for a seamless look. We even tailor-make blinds and shutters to fit almost any shape or type of window, including large windows, bay windows, Victorian sash windows, and skylights. Our blinds provide privacy, control over light and air filtration, insulation, and add value to your home. A specialised blinds shop Liverpool provides this advantage.
Is professional blind installation worth it?
Even with perfect measurements and the right product, you can find fitting blinds frustrating. Many people try to install blinds themselves only to find that their drill hits a steel lintel or they use the wrong fixings, causing the blind to pull loose. This leads to a lot of wasted time, effort, and even damage to your walls.
Our professional installation service solves this problem. Once your blinds have been made, our team of expert fitters will come out to you and install them completely free of charge. The expert fitters handle everything, from preparing the wall to mounting the brackets and securing the blind in place. They work quickly and efficiently, ensuring your blinds are installed correctly and securely. The professional blinds shop Liverpool gets the job done right, giving you peace of mind.
Why is a local blinds shop better than an online store?
When you’re buying blinds, your decision involves three things: the service, the knowledge, and the peace of mind from choosing the right option. An online store might offer a seemingly endless selection, but it lacks the local knowledge and personal touch that a trusted blinds shop Liverpool provides. Our team has extensive experience helping people find the right blinds solution, whether for a domestic setting or a commercial one. Our service is reliable, affordable, and designed to be fast, efficient, and hassle-free.
We manufacture our bespoke blinds in our Liverpool factory, ensuring quality and a quick turnaround. We offer an average lead time of 10-15 days on all our blinds, from consultation to fitting. We provide honest, expert advice and professional installation to make the entire process as easy as possible. When you choose a local blinds shop Liverpool like ours, you are investing in quality and expertise. All our blinds also come child-safe as standard.
Don’t settle for the generic and frustrating experience of online shopping. Contact Excell Blinds today to book your free, no-obligation home consultation. We will bring the samples, provide expert advice, and help you find a blind solution that is truly made for your home. You will quickly discover why Excell Blinds is the go-to blinds shop Liverpool for so many homeowners.
