Wish I had bought these for the rest of my house!
These blinds are literally exactly the same as the ones I had made and installed by Blockout Blinds (and I was unimpressed with their "service guarantee"). Only these were made and delivered within 1 week (not 1+ months) and a fraction of the cost. It took me about 40 minutes to install 4 blinds and I'm a perfectionist, so I took my time. They're even replacing a chain for me because it's not quite the length I want in exchange for this (honest) review. Very impressed. I would not hesitate to recommend or use these guys again.

Excellent product and service
Purchased block out blinds (Balmoral in concrete) for our home prior to the Christmas break and we are extremely happy with the quality of the product and the service we received. We had the blinds measured and installed by the diy team and they could not have been more accommodating and professional. The blinds were fitted over existing blinds and they were installed perfectly. Would definitely be purchasing blinds again from the DIY store in the future! Thanks guys!

Love my new products!!
I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with the team at DIY blinds twice now. And on both occasions they have been amazing to deal with. Shannon’s help made my buying experience one to remember. She is knowledgeable and helped guide me through the different options for my mountain chalet. The product arrived quickly and looks great in my chalet. Thanks Shannon and the team at DIYblinds. Because of you its going to be a great winter in the chalet.

A really professional outfit! I now can't wait to do my shutters in the summer!!

Price Beat Guarantee Not Honoured
I am writing this review because I am sick and tired of these empty price beat guarantees used to reel you in and when the company is called upon to deliver on that promise you get a barrage of excuses.
I invested time in getting samples from DIY and researching their product as I was comforted by their Price Beat Guarantee as shown on their website, screenshot below. I was about to order and thought really should get another quote so I did. Got samples from other companies and checked I was getting a good deal.
DIY was $500 more expensive fo...Read more
r exactly the same set of blinds, exactly the same fabric etc. Only variance was motorisation brands. But both were a reputable brand name and both had a 5 year warranty for the motors along with 5 yr warranty for blinds. DIY would not honour their Price Beat Guarantee, wouldn't even look at their pricing at all let alone match or beat as advertised on their website. Just heard excuses, none of them made any sense either. SO buyer beware, shop around, compare and hold them to their promise and if they don't honour it write a review like this so other people know.1 comment

What a Fantastic Company and Staff
What a fantastic team at DIY Blinds online
So easy to deal with. Measuring was a breeze with their online help. The order was processed quickly and efficiently and they were able to build a long vertical blind (4.88 mts) that nobody else would do in one length. To top it off, we were about 7 months, after supply, before fitting the last vertical only to find it was too long.
Contacted DIY Blinds and they tracked down the error in production, made us a new track and shipped all for free. Not so sure other companies would have been so accommodating.
Definitely recommend this company to anybody after widow furnishings for fast, efficient and truly professional service.
Also saved hundreds of dollars. What a bargin.

Long Lead Times but Great Products
I am extremely happy with the product and quality of the shutters I have had installed. Great price and great service. I ordered a large amount of the polylux shutters due to the quick lead time. Website says custom built in Australia in 10 working days however mine took nearly 6 weeks. Then there were a couple that they had to redo due to being sent incorrectly and it has still taken 3 weeks to make them plus time to get delivered. Bit disappointed in the lead times as it has taken so long. So from when I ordered them to all being installed it has taken 10 weeks pending they arrive next week.

Hi Nicole,
Thanks for your review and your patience. Just to give context for why this job is extending past our usual lead times; the shutter you're after is not going on a window but rather a cavity... Read more

beautiful and aesthetic curtains
First discovered DIY Blinds through instagram, and their sheer curtains and rollers were the exact aesthetic that we were looking for in our new home! Ordering samples from the website was super easy and they arrived within the week. And compared to other brands, pricing was super affordable. Very satisfied with my new sheers! So much that I’ve recommended DIY Blinds to all my friends. Thank you to the team at DIY Blinds

Exactly what I was after
I wanted to purchase white sheer curtains that were the whole length of my living room wall so custom was really the only option. I ordered samples and was thrilled with the choice I received and the online order process was very easy. My installation was done by Marcelo and he was lovely and efficient. Overall the DIY company really care about pleasing their customers and providing a great product and as a customer there’s nothing better than that! I’m thrilled with the result.

Love my blinds
We love our shutters. They finish off our home and we couldn’t be happier. The quality and the price was outstanding. We got our shutters installed in 2 weeks and others were quoting 8 weeks for almost double the price. Thanks Ray!

Shutters and rollers blinds both perfect and could not be happier
Loved the website and knew pretty much what I wanted in our new home which is old and with bay windows and solid brick not so easy to measure and install ourselves. After talking with Chris he sent out a team member to measure up and bring along the blind fabrics for me to look through, and in 3 weeks I had a transformed home with beautiful shutters and motorised roller blinds that unlike our last house are almost silent. The lithium battery do not require an electrician drilling into the brick walls etc. We are so very happy with the product and the service from Chris in office, to measure and install was exceptional. Thanks again :)

Shutters are perfect and so easy to install
We have wanted our house windows in plantation shutters for a while and after having several quotes done they were just out of our price range. We found Evan and DIY blinds and haven’t looked back. We are now on the last two windows and the transformation in each room is incredible. It was easy to measure and surprisingly easy to install the shutters.
The only issue we had was due to the transport people being a little rough but after a phone call to Evan he was straight on to replacing the shutter that had been damaged.
We can’t praise Evan and the team enough and equally important we can’t fault the quality of the shutters.
Would recommend to anyone all aspects of DIY blinds.

Perfect for my clients and my family
As an architect I thought I had great trades and great prices. But it wasn’t till I discovered Evan and the team at DIY blinds that I’ve realised I’ve been paying through my teeth for quality window furnishings.
They have amazing prices, and the quality is sensational. My team and customers couldn’t be happier.
Ps if you’re a designer or architect you’ll be pleased to know you can speciify different fabrics to their existing range, and they pass on trade prices from Westbury, Warwick, zeppel and Charles Parsons.

Questions & Answers
Arnelle Battistaasked
Do DIY blinds do motorised blinds as well??
1 answer
Evan M.DIYblinds.com.au
Hi Arnelle,
we sell motorised blinds as well :)
They're not available online yet, however we're hoping to launch them early in September. With that said we've sold thousands of motorised blinds already, and if you can't wait till September, we can manually quote your blinds with either Somfy motors, or Acmeda motors. Simply email the team at [email protected] or ring 1300 918 390. Depending on where you live we could possibly come out to measure and install for you also.
Thanks Arnelle.

Re quote no 13023783 [name removed] 13/01/16. I cannot keep my cable guide awnings from flying up and down the cables when windy which is common here in Maroubra. I wanted them as a slight rain blocker and this is not happening. they need to be weighted down somehow? The salesman [name removed] told me over the phone last week they are only for sun relief not a rain barrier. This is a different story to what he told me at the time of the quote. Have I been lied to just to get the job? The blinds were very expensive and operate electrically by motors. Please offer some help as he was not interested in suggesting anything. Thanks Sharryn

Hi Kittens, I think you're mistaking us for a different blinds company? We don't sell out door blinds and that quote number doesn't correlate with our quoting system.
Good luck Sharryn.
