| Blind | Humidity | Privacy |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminium venetian | Good | Tilt closed |
| Plaswood venetian | Good, check product | Tilt closed |
| PVC or coated roller | Good | Opaque fabric for full privacy |
| Wood or fabric roman | Poor | Good (not advised for damp rooms) |
Privacy
- Opaque or blockout fabric gives full privacy at night.
- Tilted slats let light in while blocking the view from ground level.
- Top-down bottom-up blinds suit windows overlooked by neighbours.
Positioning
- Keep blinds out of direct shower spray.
- Recess fit on small windows; face fit where frames are shallow.
- Allow ventilation so the blind can dry.
Cleaning
Wipe slats or coated fabric with mild soap. Dry after steamy showers to limit mould.

Ballpark figures, not quotations. Indicative 2026 ranges, rounded, from published South African blinds price guides and Cape Town supplier price pages, checked September 2026. Per-blind figures are mostly supply prices for a window of about 1.2m x 1.5m, and fitting is often extra. Some sources include VAT and some do not, so confirm VAT on every quote. A measure and a written quote set the actual price. See Blinds Prices Cape Town for how these figures were compiled.
What Changes the Price
- Material and size.
- Top-down bottom-up or special controls.
- Number of windows.
Measuring, Quoting and Fitting
- Measure. The supplier measures each window, checks the frame or wall, and notes obstructions such as handles, burglar bars and cornices.
- Quote. You get a written quote per blind: product, fabric or slat, size, control, fitting and VAT.
- Order. Blinds are made to measure after you accept and pay any deposit. Ask for the lead time in writing.
- Fit. Brackets are fixed, the blinds hung, levelled and tested, and the controls explained.
Cape Town Considerations
- Winter damp. Poorly ventilated bathrooms stay damp for months. Avoid timber and natural fibres.
- Close neighbours. In complexes and semi-detached homes, choose fabric or slats that give full privacy.
