What actually matters in a en-suite
Every Handforth en-suite project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:
- Very small window sizes (600mm and under)
- Shower steam right on the glass
- Obscure-glass privacy that still lets light in
- No space for reveal-fit — face-fit only
PVC or aqua faux-wood. Perfect-fit clips into the beading — no drilling into a fresh tiled surround.
What we usually specify
Across Handforth en-suites we mostly fit:
- Perfect-fit waterproof roller
- PVC venetian
- Blackout roller for master en-suites
Perfect-fit avoids drilling into new tile grout — the fastest post-refit spec.
Cassetted PVC rollers wipe clean of shower splash.

Which blinds suit a 1930s semi en-suite?

Do you fit en-suite blinds in Handforth?

Will it survive being right next to the shower?

There's no reveal depth — can you still fit shutters?
Yes — face-fit shutters bracket to the front of the frame. We measure the fixture surround on survey day. In Handforth, that's the answer for the 1930s semis and 1980s estate detached we survey most weeks.
