Vertical Blinds in Selly Oak
£994 vertical blinds fitted
Each blind up to 1 metre wide × 1 metre drop.
Walk down almost any road off the Bristol Road and you will see the same thing: a wide front window, a net curtain that has seen better days, and a room behind it that gets either too much street or too little sun. Vertical blinds solve that particular Selly Oak problem neatly. The louvres hang straight down from a slim headrail, rotate to angle the daylight, and slide back into a narrow stack so the glass is almost entirely clear when you want it to be.
Where vertical blinds work in Selly Oak homes
In B29 we fit a lot of them in student houses and lets, because a vertical takes knocks well and a single damaged louvre can be swapped rather than the whole blind thrown away. Families in Selly Park and Weoley Castle tend to choose them for back doors onto the garden, where the louvres part in the middle and you can step through without fighting a fabric panel. For bay fronts, each pane is measured on its own so the run reads as one tidy line from the pavement.
Four verticals fitted for £99 is the offer most Selly Oak households ask about first. Each blind can be up to 1 metre wide × 1 metre drop, and at the measure we check your windows and show you the fabrics included. That bundle stands alone: the BN-14 online discount does not stack on top of it. If a window is outside the offer, you get a written price for it before anything is ordered.
One practical note for landlords: a vertical in a pale, washable fabric hides the marks of a busy tenancy better than you would think, and weighted bottom chains keep the louvres hanging straight when windows are left open in summer. We can fit to the ceiling, the wall above the frame or inside the recess, depending on what the plaster will hold.

Questions we hear at the measure
What does the £99 vertical offer include?
Four vertical blinds, made to measure and fitted, each up to 1 metre wide × 1 metre drop. The fitter checks your windows and explains the included fabrics during your free measure.
Can one broken louvre be replaced in a rented house?
Usually, yes. If the fabric is still in production we can supply single louvres, which is often the cheapest way for a B29 landlord to tidy a blind between tenancies.
Do verticals work on a back door to the garden?
They are one of the easiest options for that. We set the louvres to gather on the side away from the opening, so you can step outside without moving them first.
