Why we measure rather than ask you to

A made-to-measure curtain is cut to a number, and if that number is wrong the fabric is scrap. Taking the measurement ourselves makes it our responsibility instead of yours — if a curtain does not fit the measurements we recorded, we remake it.

It also catches the things a tape measure does not tell you. Whether the ceiling is concrete slab or plasterboard over a void decides which anchor the track needs, and a bracket fixed into board alone will eventually pull out. Whether there is clearance for a double track decides whether you can have a sheer and a blackout at all. Where the air conditioning vent sits decides how much dust the curtain will collect. None of that is visible in a photograph.

How long it takes

Under an hour for a typical apartment, longer for a villa with a lot of windows. You get a written quotation before the team leaves, itemised, and it does not move afterwards unless you change what you asked for.

How to prepare (you mostly do not need to)

Clear enough space to stand at each window and, if the curtains are going in a room that is already furnished, move anything fragile off the sill. That is genuinely it. You do not need to take down the old curtains, and you do not need to have decided on a fabric — deciding is what the books are for, and it is much easier with them held against your own glass than from photographs of the shades.

If you live in a tower, it is worth checking with building management beforehand whether a work permit is needed for drilling and what hours contractors may work. That is the building's rule rather than ours, and knowing it early saves a second trip — see curtain fitting in Dubai.

What happens after you approve the quotation

The fabric is cut and stitched to your measurements, and installation is booked to a slot the same way the measuring visit was — typically 2–3 days. The team hangs the curtains, dresses the folds so they hang in the right shape from the start, and takes the packaging away. What the price covers, and what happens if something is wrong afterwards, are set out in our price promise and the warranty.

Several properties, or a handover

If you are furnishing more than one unit, or taking handover of a new home and want every window done at once, say so when you book. We hold the four books in our own UAE warehouse rather than ordering per job, so matching one shade across a whole property — and coming back months later for another room in the same fabric — is reliable in a way that one-off imported orders are not.

What it costs you

Nothing. There is no charge for the visit, no charge for the measuring, and no obligation at the end of it. If you decide against going ahead, or want to think about it for a month, that is a normal outcome and nobody will chase you about it.
