“Two quotes were nearly identical and one was two hundred more for the same spec. Went with the middle one, fitted within ten days, no issues at all. Handy having them all come to you rather than traipsing into town.”

Fitting blinds in Limerick
Limerick City has one of the largest Georgian quarters outside Dublin — the terraces around Pery Square, O'Connell Street and the People's Park have tall, elegant sash windows with deep reveals, and many are protected. Recess-mounted romans and shutters suit those. The suburban belt through Castletroy, Dooradoyle and Raheen is conventional uPVC. Along the Shannon estuary at Askeatonand Foynes the exposure picks up, and Adare's thatched and character properties need a light touch with fixings.
Moderate sunshine with fairly high rainfall coming up the Shannon estuary. City-centre Georgian rooms lose a lot of heat through single glazing where it survives.
What this means for your windows
1390 hours of bright sunshine a year puts Limerick around the national average, so a balanced specification works well — dim-out fabrics in living areas and blackout in bedrooms. Mention it when you're getting quotes — it changes the fabric, not usually the style.

What Limerick customers say
Recent reviews from homes across Limerick. Names shortened at the customer's request.
“Protected structure, so I was nervous. He knew the rules, used the existing reveal, and drilled nothing into the original joinery. Slow to make but beautiful when they went in.”
“Business premises, needed it done outside hours and they accommodated that. Good price. Minor mark on one slat which was replaced without argument.”
How a blind installation works in Limerick
From first enquiry to the fitter leaving. Eight steps, roughly three to four weeks end to end for made-to-measure blinds.
Tell us about your windows
Two minutes on the quote form: your county, roughly how many windows, which rooms, and what you want the blinds to do. The more specific you are about the problem — glare, sleep, privacy, heat — the more useful the quotes come back.
Vetted Limerick fitters get in touch
Up to three independent fitters covering your area contact you directly, usually within two working days. You choose who to talk to and who to ignore.
Free home survey and measure
The fitter measures every window individually — width at the top, middle and bottom, drop on both sides — and checks handles, trickle vents and sills. Never accept a quote given over the phone without a measure.
Fabric and style decisions
Samples are left with you so you can see them in the actual light of the room. This matters more than people expect: a fabric that looks warm in a showroom can read grey in a north-facing Limerick sitting room.
Written quote and timeline
You get an itemised, per-window price with the fabric, fitting type, operation and lead time in writing. Compare like for like across your quotes — the spread on identical specifications is often €200 to €400 on a full house.
Manufacture
Made-to-measure blinds take about two to three weeks. Shutters take four to eight. You'll be given a fitting date, not a vague window.
Fitting day
A typical house takes two to four hours. Brackets go up, blinds are levelled and tested, cord safety devices are screwed down, packaging is taken away and the old blinds are removed if you asked for that.
Check before they leave
Operate every blind fully. Check nothing catches on a handle, that each one hangs level, and that every safety device is fixed into something solid. This is the moment to raise anything, not a week later.

Blinds in Limerick — common questions
How much do blinds cost in Limerick?
As a guide, expect roughly €40–€150 per window for roller blinds, €45–€140 for aluminium venetians, €70–€190 for day and night blinds, €90–€260 for wooden blinds and €280 upward for shutters, fitted. Prices in Limerick vary with window size, fabric choice and how many windows you do at once — doing a full house in one visit is almost always cheaper per window than doing rooms piecemeal.
How quickly can I get blinds fitted in Limerick?
Most fitters covering Limerick will survey within three to five working days of your enquiry. Made-to-measure blinds then take roughly two to three weeks to manufacture, and fitting is usually a single visit. Shutters are the exception at four to eight weeks, because each set is made to the exact opening.
Is the quote actually free?
Yes. You tell us about your windows once, and vetted fitters covering Limerick come back to you with prices. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation to book. You are free to take one quote, all three, or none.
Which blinds suit the climate in Limerick?
Moderate sunshine with fairly high rainfall coming up the Shannon estuary. City-centre Georgian rooms lose a lot of heat through single glazing where it survives. That points towards particular fabrics rather than particular styles, and a good local fitter will raise it before you pick a colour.
Do I need to be home for the measuring visit?
Yes, for the survey — someone over 18 needs to be there to give access and to talk through what each room is for. The measuring itself usually takes fifteen to twenty minutes for an average house. Fitting day generally takes two to four hours for a full house.
Can I get blinds fitted to uPVC windows without drilling?
Yes. Perfect fit blinds clip into the rubber gasket between the glass and the uPVC frame with no screws and no holes, which makes them the standard recommendation for rented homes and apartments. Most of the newer housing stock across Limerick is uPVC, so this is available on the majority of windows we quote for.
