John's Blinds is the nearest and largest curtain supplier and fitter serving Wickford and surrounding area. Buying/Replacing House Curtains is not a cheap purchase by any means, wherever you buy them from. It's up to the customer to decide in his or her case whether they feel John's is a tad overpriced or not, taking account of quality and the fitting etc. I've taken one star off because I just don't know the answer to that, as we only had the one quotation from John's (we did receive a price concession as we placed a double order).
What I can say is the choice from the Shop on 'Wickford Industrial Site', is very good and the staff are helpful. The fitter is a very nice young, good looking lad called 'Bob', who knows his job inside out, and I am sure will be very popular with the ladies.

I have used John’s Blinds twice now for blinds and shutters. It’s great to find a local company whose knowledge and expertise you can trust. The showroom is set out with all their products and everyone I have dealt with there is helpful, friendly and efficient.
A special mention to Steve who has fitted my blinds, he does a really professional job, friendly, warm and he cares about his work.
I would advise anyone to not be taken in by internet ads or special offers from online companies. Go local, go to John’s and get the right advice by talking to real people who understand that you are making an investment in your home.

Excellent service from start to finish. Kept us informed of status of order. Fitting on the day was fantastic. The quality of the shutters is brilliant and we are so happy with the result.
All the staff were super helpful and friendly from start to finish.
They were patient with all the questions we had, gave advice and did not rush the process.
This was the second time we used Johns Blinds and am planning to use them again.
Everyone from their showroom staff, ladies that answer the phone and fitters were professional and friendly and it was overall a great experience using them. Thank you

We have used Johns blinds a couple of times and couldn’t be happier with our new blinds. All the staff are really friendly, professional and ever so helpful with great advice on what blinds were best to suit the size of our windows. They come out and measure up for you so that you can be safe in the knowledge that they will fit like a glove. We also found that they were reasonably priced. Do not use any other company!!! We will be recommending this company to friends and family and will definitely use Johns blinds in the future. Thank you, from two very pleased customers.
This is the second time we've used John's Blinds in the past year and we've had the same fantastic service both times. The staff in the showroom have been so helpful in finding examples of material for our 2 Roman Blinds, and ordered a range of samples for us to see in situ. The measurement and fitting service has been exemplary and any mess made must have been cleared up as the place was spotless when completed. I'd thoroughly recommend John's Blinds.
We are so, so glad that we used this local company (for the 2nd time.) John's Blinds are the best.
They recently installed beautiful shutters in our bathroom. Their service, from ordering, to measuring, to fitting was EXCELLENT. A big shout out to Lorraine, Matt and Steve who all did their individual jobs perfectly making the whole process seamless.

Great experience, from day of quote until fitting the whole process ran smoothly.
The technician Steve who fitted the shutters, was informative and a perfectionist.
Shutters look amazing, durable and very easy to use.
I would recommend to anyone looking to purchase shutters.

I have used Johns Blinds & Curtains for many different types of high quality window coverings over the past 6 years. I’ll always recommend them based on build quality, price and customer service. My most recent shutter is amazing and just finishes the room off perfectly! The installer so are so friendly you could talk to them for longer than an install takes.
We had the back bedroom shutters fitted by Steve who was very professional and did a fantastic job of installing the shutters. Steve answered any questions I had and left the room clean after the work was complete. I would highly recommend John's blinds and curtains again and especially Steve who's friendly approach is a great asset to the company.
Fantastic service as always!! Very happy with my new Roman blinds for my office. I’ve been using John’s Blinds for about 10 years, blinds, curtains and matching cushions throughout my whole house, won’t go anywhere else! Thank you so much!
From visiting the showroom, to having Matt come to measure our windows, to Steve fitting our blinds earlier this week, we experienced an efficient service.
Matt and Steve were knowledgeable, courteous and respectful of our property.
We could not be more impressed.

Fantastic service from John’s Blinds & Curtains. We had shutters fitted and roller blinds and the service on all of the fittings was just brilliant. So much care and thought was taken when carrying out the fittings to make sure everything was perfect. Steve and Matt left everything tidy and were both cleaning up as they went along fitting the shutters. We love the shutters that they have fitted and also our roller blinds in our bathrooms which were also fitted so well. There were so many options on material and colours for the roller blinds which was great. We would definitely recommend John’s Blinds to those looking for new blinds/shutters. Thank you!
A high quality service.
John's Blinds & Curtains were a similar price to Blinds2Go. However, the service was priceless. All windows were carefully surveyed, finding some window openings were not square. The fitting dealt with that. In addition the fitter was lovely and completely cleared up.
I will be recommending John's Blinds & Curtains to friends and family.

Absolutely fantastic service from ordering the blinds and curtains to the guys who did the work. Steve was meticulous and ensured that the blinds were perfect - he also kept my 6 year old entertained whilst doing the job - fantastic guy. Bob - again, what a great guy. Did a super job on the curtains - we love them - and a bonus to have an awesome chat with him about football. Highly recommend.
My parents had a fantastic experience with John’s blinds from start to finish. Sam came round to measure and discuss options and Steve fitted them. They were both extremely professional and friendly and really helped them choose the right options. The blinds are perfect! They wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them.
Excellent service from start to finish and our blackout blind has exceeded all expectations. Our fitter was amazing bearing in mind he had to fit the blind whilst standing on a bed as there was no room to mover it! Highly recommended.
We had bedroom curtains fitted today and are very pleased with the finished effect, they really complement our recently redecorated room. There was a slight problem with tie back hooks but once we talked to Lorraine in the office, Bobby came back within 10 minutes and sorted out the problem for us. Very pleased and would recommend this company
We have just had venetian blinds fitted today, in 5 rooms. Highly recommend John's blinds from Sam coming out to measure our windows and advising us what would look good, with no hard sale.
The lady in the office booking everything in for us, advising us on how long we would need to wait for them and how long it would take to fit on the day. Everything we were advised happened in the timescale.
Bobby who fitted them all perfectly and hoovered as he went along. All our old blinds were taken down and away for us.
We absolutely love our new blinds they have made our house look so much fresher and lighter.
Nothing was too much trouble for this company and everyone we dealt with were all lovely and friendly. We will definitely be recommending them to all our friends!

We recently had two shutter blinds and a roller blind fitted by John’s Blinds and Curtains, and we couldn’t be happier with the result! From start to finish, every step of the process was handled with absolute professionalism and care.
The team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, double‑checking every dimension to ensure a perfect fit.
Communication throughout was fantastic. I received prompt updates on production timelines, and reminders ahead of the installation date (thankyou Sue!), and clear explanations of what to expect on the day.
When the fitters arrived, they were brilliant (Steve I think!)
The end result is stunning!

We’ve bought several products from John’s Blinds over the years and have always been delighted with the attention to detail and quality of staff and product. Family and friends have also bought and have similar experiences. Their nature is to get the best product, at a good price. We’re also interested in their commercial arm supplying custom fit blinds to our offices in the West End. I’ve never felt “sold to” and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.
Just had 'perfect fit' blinds added to my french doors, service was impeccable. Sam was very friendly, thorough and advised on every aspect without the pushy sales approach. Would highly recommend to anyone. Very competitive prices and excellent quality.
This morning had a lovely roller blind fitted at my kitchen window, which I am well pleased with. Took next to no time to do. Fitter was pleasant & friendly, as was guy who came to measure & brought samples. Will definitely be using again quite soon to have the rest of the place fitted out. Would highly recommend. 👍
Great service from start to finish. The fitter was extremely polite, cheerful and efficient. Blind fitted in next to no time with no mess or hassle. Would definitely use again. 100% recommended. Thanks very much.
Amazing service from this local company. My daughter was moving today and needed a motorised roller blind. The blind was manufactured in incredibly short time and was delivered and fitted ahead of schedule. The whole process was worry free and everyone I dealt with was friendly and professional. No high pressure sales and I genuinely felt like they really cared. Thanks to everyone involved from Sam in sales to Steve who completed the fitting.
Excellent vertical blinds, very happy with the colour and the attention to detail by Steve who spent a lot of time fitting them just right !
Great service, prompt, clean and today and just what I wanted. Friendly staff who cared for my property
Really happy with a great service from helping to choose the best options and the stress free fitting. Everywhere left spotlessly clean as well. Recommended.
I cannot recommend Johns Blinds and curtains more highly. From the friendly helpful staff at the showroom to the fitters there is nothing they could do better. I have had vertical and Roman blinds made and fitted by them and the product quality is superb.
We've used John's Blinds for various window blinds over the last couple of years.
Service has always been great, both in the showroom and at measuring and fitting appointments, very pleasant and helpful.
The blinds have also always been good quality and well fitted.
Highly recommended.

I have ordered roller blinds and vertical blinds from this company. Always excellent service and very good quality products. They come and measure when they say they are and deliver on time. All their staff are very friendly and helpful with giving advice. I have used this company for many years and would not go anywhere else. Their showroom in Wickford is worth a visit but if you can't get there they will bring samples to you.
The service has been excellent
From the first contact pleasant and friendly, measuring ,choice of styles and fabrics and final fitting has been first class
I would definitely use John's Binds again and can highly recommend their products

Fantastic service! Steve was second to none and we couldn’t be happier with our shutters he installed!
We’ve also had bedroom blinds installed and are very happy with these too!
Would definitely recommend to others!
Thank you again

Excellent service from John’s Blinds - blackout blind outstanding - quality top class as always from this company.
This company are simply the best! we had shutters fitted to 2 bay windows & a box room and also just had remote controlled motorised roller blinds fitted to our bi-folds.
We visited their showroom free parking outside given advice and made an appointment for Matt to come to us in Hornchurch to measure up and give us a free quotation.
Matt (who was a pleasure to deal with) came and measured very thoroughly, answered many questions from my husband and I. We were so impressed with his whole attitude & approach and most importantly there was NO PRESSURE OR HARD SELL.
Also worth mentioning Matt removed his trainers when he entered our house - very impressed and grateful to him. We received a detailed quote later that day by email.
We discussed the quote over the weekend and placed the order on the Monday. Again no sales calls or pressure from this family run business.
When Matt and Steve (both lovely down to earth guys) came to install the shutters they removed their trainers each time they came into our house they were so clean & tidy whilst installing the shutters (hoovering/wiping any dust etc.) that when they finished you wouldn't have known all what had gone into the finished result.
We love our shutters - wish we'd had them installed years ago! Matt & Steve said they treat each client's property like they would want someone to treat theirs. We put an order in for our bi-fold blinds before they left that day as that's how impressed we were.
Steve returned on his own yesterday to install the bi-fold blinds and worked exactly the same - very clean/tidy. We love the bi-fold blinds, will be perfect for when the sun is shining into our orangery.
These two gentlemen are both very knowledgable, helpful and simply why I cannot recommend this professional family business highly enough. Don't hesitate! book a free consultation and transform your home too!

We recently had a venetian blind for the kitchen and a roller blind for the bathroom installed by John's Blinds. We are extremely happy with them both and the super fast efficient and professional service. Both of the fitters were friendly, helpful and just really pleasant. I will definitely use John's Blinds again highly recommend them.
We’re really pleased with our new living room curtains from John’s Blinds & Curtains. There is a vast array of swatches and designs to choose from at their showroom in Wickford. The installation team Sam and Bobby were professional and friendly and did a great job. We highly recommend John’s Blinds and would definitely use them again.
Great experience with Johns blinds. Really helpful having a home visit with books and books of samples, help taking through options and what possibilities were and really friendly fitting service. No pushy sales, no changing of prices. Friendly stress free experience and really competitive fair price. Really pleased thanks ever so much to everyone at Johns blinds 👍
Thank you! Excellent service from start to finish. We had great advice from Sam, the team kept us updated on progress and Bobby did a fantastic job fitting the blinds, absolute delight to have doing the job.
Would highly recommend John's Blinds, and we will be back for sure!
