yeah my dad works for Hillarys blinds they are a good company to deal with . been in business nearly 40 years & largest company in uk. They don't offer cheap materials but the quality repays initial cost in longevity. Call their freephone no in yellow pages or get back to me if you are local to Accy/Blackburn for local contact.

We bought ours from a place on Rossendale Rd industrial estate in Burnley (Turn right at Rose Grove traffic lights and its on your right just past the garage), don't know the name of the place but they have a good showroom and good selection to choose from

I got those a few years ago for the terraced house i lived in. The blinds was really good. Was fitted in around 5 minutes. I got two blinds for about £80. Pity they were too short in width for my flat.

cheers for the info folks - will look at all options given & keyco - I presume you slightly biased towards any blind company thats not hilarys blinds cos your dad works for them??
nothing wrong with it but I dont want to spend too much cash on a couple of windows..

harwood red · 08-01-2006, 01:33

Hilary blinds do give competitive prices. Pm big all and get a price, if it's more than you want to pay, thats fine then shop around but you will def get quality from hilarys/ I'm not biased cos he's not my dad, ha ha

sorry you had a bad experience with them, I've had mine up for a few years now and found them fine. The guy was really helpful to as it was a tricky shape and size.
