Where we've earned this pitch
We work with local builders across the WA and CW postcodes and understand build-programme logic — our quote is dated to your practical completion, not our next available slot.
Ordering shutters against a completion date (not after moving in) knocks weeks off the "finished house" experience — the day the scaffold comes down, the windows are already dressed.
Why this page exists
The build is running. You need window dressing quoted from a plan, ordered against a fitting date, and installed the week the scaffold comes down — not six weeks after everyone's moved in and the kitchen is trip-hazarded by delivery boxes.
Homeowners mid-extension, buyers refurbishing before moving in, and self-builders scheduling trades against a completion date.
In Hale Barns (WA15 0/WA15 8) that translates into executive new build and Mock-Tudor, mostly along the A538 Hale Road corridor.
The default spec — before we've even seen the house
Across Hale Barns renovators projects, the short list is short on purpose:
- Full-height plantation shutters — fitted after final decoration, no scuff risk
- Motorised roller blinds for high-level kitchen glazing and lantern rooflights
- Perfect Fit blackout for new bedrooms — clips into the beading, zero paint damage
- Waterproof ABS shutters for new bathrooms and wetrooms
The final pick depends on the room, the light and the openings — decided on the survey, not by a call-centre.
Renovators priorities, ordered
Every renovators survey we run in Hale Barns lands on the same short list:
- Quote from architect's drawings before glazing is installed
- Manufacture ready to fit the week after final plaster paint
- Co-ordinate with the electrician for any motorised or wired systems
- Final measure once plaster is dry — not before, to avoid template shrinkage
- Single accountable trade for every window on the extension
The budget conversation — up-front, not on the doorstep
Typical spend £2,800–£6,800 for a rear-extension full package (shutters + kitchen blinds + rooflight motorised). Multi-window projects are quoted per opening so line items can be moved between budget cycles.
Whole-house Hale Barns projects in this bracket usually sit within the £3,800 – £13,000 band. Every figure on our quote is fixed and 90-day valid — no follow-up phone call to "re-cost".

Why does "quote from architect's drawings before glazing is installed" matter for renovators in Hale Barns?
Priority 1 on every renovators survey. Full brief: quote from architect's drawings before glazing is installed. In Hale Barns — Hale (1 mi), Ringway (1 mi), Ashley corridor — that usually decides which product lands on a executive new build or Mock-Tudor quote.

Motorised cellular or roller blinds on cassette runners — fitted to the reveal, wired to a wall switch or remote. Very common on kitchen extensions and orangeries.
Can you co-ordinate with our electrician?
Yes — for motorised systems we specify the switch location and cable spec on the quote so your electrician can first-fix. We arrive to a house that's already wired for what we're installing.
