Rugs & blinds

The finishing touches

Rugs to soften hard floors and blinds measured to fit your windows.

Rows of carpet rolls in the Cefn Carpets showroom

A rug can define a seating area, add warmth over laminate or vinyl, and bring colour into a neutral room. We can also make up rugs from your chosen carpet with a bound or whipped edge.

Blinds finish the job. Tell us your windows and we'll help you pick a style and colour that works with your new floor.

Bespoke rugs

Made from your chosen carpet, edged to suit.

Over hard floors

Warmth and softness where you need it.

Made-to-measure blinds

Clean lines and a proper fit.

Colour matching

We'll help tie floor, rug and blinds together.

Choosing yours

Know your options before you buy

01

Bespoke bound rugs

Choose any carpet from the showroom and we will cut it to your size and finish the edge with a colour-matched cloth binding. A tidy, tailored look for a fraction of a designer rug price.

Best in: Under dining tables and seating areas

02

Whipped-edge rugs

A hand-finished wool overlocked edge that looks softer and more traditional than binding. Ideal on wool and wool-rich carpets.

Best in: Lounges and bedrooms

03

Runners

Long, narrow rugs made to your measurement for hallways, kitchens and the foot of a bed — perfect for protecting the busiest strip of a hard floor.

Best in: Hallways and galley kitchens

04

Roller blinds

Simple, neat and available in blackout, dim-out and moisture-resistant fabrics. The most practical choice for bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms.

Best in: Bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms

05

Vertical and venetian blinds

Verticals give you precise light control across wide windows and patio doors; venetians in wood or aluminium suit smaller windows and add real character.

Best in: Living rooms and patio doors

06

Roman and day-night blinds

Soft folded fabric for a warmer, more dressed window, or a layered day-night blind for privacy without losing daylight.

Best in: Living rooms and dining rooms

How we do it

From first call to finished floor

  1. 1

    Pick your fabric or carpet

    Browse rug-quality carpets and blind fabrics side by side in the showroom, so your floor and windows are chosen together rather than by guesswork.

  2. 2

    Measuring

    For blinds, a few millimetres matter. We measure each window individually and confirm whether a recess or face fit will look and work best.

  3. 3

    Made to measure

    Rugs are cut and edged to your exact size; blinds are manufactured to your measurements. Nothing is trimmed on site to make it fit.

  4. 4

    Fitting and delivery

    Blinds are fitted and adjusted properly, brackets set level, and cords or chains made child-safe. Rugs are delivered and laid where you want them.

  5. 5

    Pulling the room together

    Bring a cushion, curtain sample or photo of the room and we will help match tones between the floor, rug and window so it all reads as one scheme.

Looking after it

  • Rotate rugs a couple of times a year so wear and any sun fading stays even.
  • Use a rug underlay on hard floors to stop slipping and protect the surface beneath.
  • Vacuum rugs on a lower suction setting and avoid running a beater bar over bound edges.
  • Dust blind slats regularly with a soft cloth or brush attachment; most fabric blinds can be spot-cleaned only.
  • Keep blind cords and chains secured out of reach of children and pets.
  • Wipe moisture-resistant kitchen and bathroom blinds occasionally to prevent build-up.

Good to know

Questions we get asked a lot

Can you make a rug from the carpet I have chosen?

Yes — that is one of our most popular services. Any carpet we supply can be cut to size and bound or whipped, so your rug matches the rest of your flooring exactly.

What size rug should I buy?

As a rule, a living room rug should sit under at least the front legs of your sofa, and a dining rug should extend far enough for chairs to stay on it when pulled out. We are happy to advise from your room measurements.

Do you fit the blinds as well as supply them?

Yes, we measure, supply and fit. That way if anything is not hanging quite right, it is us who puts it right.

Recess fit or face fit?

Recess fitting sits the blind inside the window opening for a neat, minimal look; face fitting mounts it on the wall above and blocks more light. We will recommend the better option for each window.

Are your blinds child-safe?

Yes, blinds are supplied with the required safety devices for cords and chains, and we fit them correctly at installation.

How long do made-to-measure blinds take?

Lead times vary by fabric and style, but most orders are ready within a couple of weeks. We will give you a realistic timescale when you order.
