Who this is for — and who it isn't
The window dressing has to be safe by design (not just "safe with the cord tied up"), it has to survive sticky fingers and porridge, and the bedroom needs to actually get dark at 7pm in June.
Parents with under-fives, expectant parents and families extending or reconfiguring for a new baby.
In Lymm (WA13) that translates into sandstone cottage and listed dam-side home, mostly along the A56 / B5158 corridor.
What actually matters — in the order it matters
Every young families survey we run in Lymm lands on the same short list:
- Cordless by design — no cord anywhere the child could reach, ever
- Wipeable finish that survives felt-tip, food and yoghurt
- Blackout for nap time — proper darkness for a 1pm sleep
- No small parts that can be pulled off and swallowed
- Quiet operation for after-bath tilt down while the toddler is drifting off
Where in Lymm we've been recently
Conservation-friendly shutters across the village and out to Heatley. Practical route via M6 J20 — 4 min; 12 min from stockton heath.
We group young families surveys around Lymm with the nearby villages — Warburton, Little Bollington, Oughtrington — so a whole run of properties can be done on one visit day.
Why us for this brief
Every product we specify for a room a child sleeps or plays in meets BS EN 13120 for child safety — that's a legal requirement for rental properties and a common-sense choice for a family home.
Window-blind cord strangulation is one of the most common preventable household hazards for under-fives — every product we recommend for a child's room removes the cord entirely, not just tucks it out of reach.
What's different about a young families job
The survey is done at a time that suits nap schedules — most family bookings sit at 10am or 1pm on a weekday. Fitting is quiet, planned around one room at a time so the child's bedroom is never out of use overnight.
Lymm survey days are grouped so travel stays tight — the workshop is 12 min from stockton heath, on the M6 J20 — 4 min corridor.
The budget conversation — up-front, not on the doorstep
Typical spend £480–£720 for a nursery shutter, £900–£1,600 for a nursery + master bedroom + landing package. Fabric-only refresh options exist for tighter budgets.
Whole-house Lymm projects in this bracket usually sit within the £2,000 – £6,500 band. Every figure on our quote is fixed and 90-day valid — no follow-up phone call to "re-cost".
