Indoor: shutters, rollers, curtains
Plantation shutters, blockout and sunscreen rollers, verticals, sheer and blockout curtains, fitted by the same hands. Quoted per job.
Cafes and commercial
Clear screens that let a cafe trade in the rain, and blockout rollers for offices. Quoted with your trading hours in mind.

The call-out fee
Servicing and repair visits carry a call-out fee that covers getting Shelton to your door. It depends on how far you are from Altona (under 50 km, 50 to 75, 75 to 100, or 100 to 150 km), and it is quoted by distance when he calls you back, before anything is booked.
Installation and supply jobs are priced as above; ask Shelton whether travel applies for your address.
Where he goes
Based in Altona, Melbourne's west. Melbourne, Geelong, the Mornington Peninsula, Ballarat and Bendigo are all inside the 150 km radius. Every area, with its real distance.
Common questions
Do you really repair blinds you didn't install?
Yes. Most installers will only service or repair what they sold and fitted themselves. Shelton services and repairs blinds he installed, and blinds someone else did. That is the whole point of Blinds GP.
How much is a typical outdoor blind?
Supplied and installed, $2,000 to $2,300 for a typical 2.5 m to 2.8 m outdoor blind. If you already have the blind, installation is $200 per blind. Both are a guide until Shelton has measured.
Who turns up?
Shelton. He quotes, measures, supplies, fits and comes back. There is no sales rep and no separate install crew.
