Questions to Ask Your Curtain Supplier

The curtains you choose can make a big difference in the look and feel of the room. Whether you want dramatic drapes for a cosy atmosphere or lightweight curtains that keep the space feeling bright, there are lots to pick from. Going to a curtain supplier is a great way of finding a bespoke window covering that suits your requirements, but what questions should you ask to ensure you’ve got everything covered?

Can you measure for me?

It’s always worth asking the curtain supplier whether they can measure for you as not every supplier offers this service. If not, ask them how to measure the curtains especially if you have unusual size windows, that way you’ll get the perfect fit.

Do you provide tracks and poles?

Without tracks and poles, you won’t be able to hang your new curtains, so double check if the supplier can provide you with this too. It might be better to purchase everything from the same place, however, if they do not supply these accessories they may be able to suggest somewhere that does.

What kind of materials do you stock?

The great thing about custom made curtains is that you can choose which materials you like. Many homeowners like to pick materials that match their decor or enjoy the idea of having completely unique curtains. Make sure you have a good look at the materials available so you can see whether they match your requirements.

Which curtains do you recommend for my space?

Curtain suppliers are experts in window coverings so there’s no harm in asking for recommendations. Bring a photo of your room with you for reference and the suppliers should be able to make suggestions and guide you through your options.
