With so many styles of blinds and shades to choose from, finding the right one for your needs can sometimes feel a little overwhelming.

However, using their vast knowledge and expertise, Lucas and his business partner Chris can help you find the perfect window covering.

Since launching their business, North Blinds, in 2018, the team have commissioned and installed thousands of blinds.

Their unrivalled customer service has earned them hundreds of five star ratings on review sites including Google and Trustpilot.

Personal approach

This is thanks to their personal face-to-face approach, which includes bringing their unique 'mobile showroom' to customers' homes.

Lucas said:

"We bring the showroom to customers, so they don’t need to leave the comfort of their homes.

"We, as an independent family business, have got large collections of books of different swatches and types of blinds, so they can see what the actual material or fitting is going to look like against the wall or against the furniture.

"This really helps customers to find what they are looking for.

"We are always friendly and our free no-obligation consultations are carried out in a relaxed way. We keep the best interest of our customers at heart."

Lucas, Chris and the team personally offer advice on what blinds would be suitable for customers' needs.

For example, a heavy wooden blind might not necessarily be suitable for a large window and a motorised blind might be a more preferable option for a skylight.

Lucas said:

"Using our expertise and our experience, we advise them so they get the results they want. Sometimes as a customer, you have something in mind but you don't know the full range or what options you have. So we can help solve this."

Lifetime guarantee

The company also offers a unique lifetime aftercare service. As well as a standard two-year warranty on all blinds, North Blinds stay on standby to help customers with any future issues.

Lucas said:

"Our lifetime aftercare helps you to keep your blinds in tip-top shape, even when they get accidentally damaged. So if your dog took too much of a liking to your bone print kitchen blinds, we will fix the damage for free. We only charge for replacement parts if needed. You can't say fairer than that!

"We focus on the experience and the customer service so they feel they have got value for money. We want to take away all the stress of ordering blinds, fitting them and making sure they are ok."

North Blinds is based in Skipton, however they offer their top-class service across the Harrogate district, including Knaresborough and Ripon.

The firm works with the best manufacturers to supply a complete range of blinds, including blackout blinds, motorised, 'perfect fit', pleated, Venetian, roller, day and night, conservatory, skylight Roman and vertical. As well as the huge variety window blinds on offer, the business also offers a wide range of curtains and shutters.

Lucas added:

"Customers expect excellent quality materials, a high-level of workmanship, professionalism and excellent customer service, and that’s exactly what we believe in too."
