Curtain shortening, lined curtains and voiles

We offer curtain shortening and alterations for unlined and lined curtains, alongside voile hemming. Bring your existing curtains or your own fabric: we will assess the material, size and finish required and explain what is possible before confirming a quote.

For voiles made from customer-supplied fabric, contact us first with your window measurements and the finish you would like. Fabric width, pattern and heading requirements affect how much material is needed.

What to bring

  • Your curtains or fabric, plus the number of panels.
  • The finished length you need and any relevant window measurements.
  • Details of the lining and heading, and your preferred completion date.

If you are unsure how to measure, ask us before cutting or ordering fabric. We will confirm which measurements we need. Please contact the studio to arrange an assessment before bringing bulky items.

Curtain alteration prices

Our current guide lists curtain shortening from £40, lined curtains from £50 and voile curtains from £10. These are starting prices; the final quote depends on size, quantity, lining, heading and the work required. We will clarify the total for your items before proceeding.
