    Blind supply and fit

    Posted 28 March

    The quality of work was good; however, getting hold of the tradesman to book the appointment after I paid a deposit was a nightmare. I'm not sure if they had too many jobs or what had happened. Please do better regarding booking appointments, as that part was stressful and unprofessional. I shouldn't have to chase up an appointment if I paid a deposit.

    Response from Ballantines Blinds & Awnings Ltd

    Hi Sheila, Sorry again for the confusion over your order. We have a new member of staff and there was a mix up our side over dates. It’s not our usual practice to book things in this way and I’m sorry again you were caught up in this error.

    Both Stef & Mark were wonderful to work with, friendly & helpful. They both gave us specialist advice & helped & guided us through the process of installing curtains, voiles, blinds, poles & tracks in are new home. Nothing was too much trouble, they did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend.

    Fitted a blind in the en-suite and also the main bathroom

    Posted 24 December 2023

    Mark arrived as agreed, and it was late on a Friday afternoon and he still had one more job to do. He was very efficient, did a an excellent job and tidied up afterwards. We would definitely recommend Mark to you.

    Two replacement window blinds

    Posted 18 December 2023

    Excellent professional advice by Stef in the shop, who understood our requirements. A site visit followed this up with further good advice. We were also impressed by Mark who expertly fitted both blinds in less than an hour. He is obviously very experienced

    New Motor to existing Markilux 915 (original installation 2005)

    Posted 29 September 2023

    From start to finish the whole experience has been fantastic - even if we had to wait a few weeks for the motor to arrive from Europe. We were kept informed of the situation throughout which we appreciated. Installation today went brilliantly and we even given more information about how the system worked than from the original installer 17 years ago. Would definitely recommend Ballantine Blinds and Awning. 10/10
