PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
1. WE HAVE A 1 CM TOLLERANCE WHEN WE REDUCE THE DROP OF A CURTAIN. Curtains are also NON RETURNABLE once customisation has been done. If in doubt, please see our returns policy.
2. When customising from Pencil Pleat to Eyelet heading, the heading tape remains on the custains and the eyelets are punched through. This helps with strengthening the top of the curtain and enhances the hanging appearance of each curtain.
How to change the heading from EYELET to PENCIL heading:
This is a more complex procedure, but is possible given specific criteria: ie, if your curtains are long enough, as you will loose at least 5 inches when this is done. To make this process easy for you, please initially call us on 01622 813935 for an initial discussion which will allow us to gather the information we require to help you.
Customisation lead times are normally around 7-10 days. During October and November, these can be extended to 15+ days. For an accurate, up to date lead time, please call us on 01622 813935
