The Houses We Know Best
What matters most about Window Works in Swansea is how well we know the houses around the store. The Ocean Grove and Gardners Neck cottages near Mount Hope Bay have bay-facing rooms that take hard afternoon light and salt air. Many of the older cottages have short, wide windows set close to the ceiling, which leaves little room for a headrail and little height for a blind or shade to stack into. The Hortonville farmhouses inland keep taller, traditional windows with trim worth showing off, and the post-war ranches along the Route 6 corridor mix wide picture windows with standard bedroom windows and sliding doors.
Each of those windows gets a treatment made to its own opening. That is the point of a specialist store: tailored solutions that enhance and complement your space, rather than the nearest stock size.

What We Make
Every window treatment is made to measure, and each has its own page with more detail.
Custom blinds
Wood, faux wood, aluminium and vertical blinds, with slats that tilt to set the light and privacy at each window.
Plantation shutters
Interior louvred panels fitted to the frame, a classic finish for capes, colonials and farmhouses.
Roman shades
Soft fabric folds, flat, hobbled or relaxed, that raise and lower smoothly.
Cellular shades
Single and double cell honeycomb fabric that holds air, so the room holds its heat.
Drapes and curtains
Our genuine specialty: custom drapes made from fabrics you choose in the showroom.
Custom fabric decor
Pillows, duvet covers and some upholstery, made to tie in with the fabric at your windows.
A Showroom Worth the Drive
The showroom is where most of our customers start. You can see and handle blinds, shutters, shades and fabrics before you choose, and talk to the people who will measure and install them. Draperies, pillows, duvet covers and some upholstery are made from fabrics you pick there. The showroom also carries the Norman range of blinds, shades and shutters.
Anyone curious about Window Works in Swansea is welcome to come in and look around, with or without a project in mind.
