FAQ · Costs & Budget

How much do custom blinds actually cost?

Enough that the "from $X" banners mislead — that starting price attaches to a tiny size, and your real cost depends on the window’s dimensions, the fabric, the lift, and the options. The only honest way to compare is per window at a stated benchmark size: we quote representative windows (a standard 35×48 and a wide 72×48) so sellers and products line up on the same footing, dated to when we checked, and prices move over time. When you shop, price your actual windows in each seller’s configurator and compare the carts, not the ads — a seller that looks cheapest on the headline can lose once fabric, cordless lift, and a valance are added. Budget the remake policy in too, since custom orders are generally not returnable.
