We are proud to announce that Shutter Envy is now a BBSA Accredited Specialist — formally recognised by the British Blind and Shutter Association (BBSA), the UK’s trade body for blinds, shutters and shading products.

For our customers across Leicester, Loughborough and Leicestershire, this is independent confirmation that we work to the standards the industry itself sets for product knowledge, installation quality and customer care.

What is BBSA accreditation?

The BBSA has represented the UK shading industry since 1919. Its Accredited Specialist scheme is awarded to companies that demonstrate:

  • Sound technical knowledge of blinds, shutters and shading systems
  • Responsible sales and survey practices
  • Professional installation and aftercare
  • Commitment to the BBSA Code of Practice

In short, it is a mark you can trust when choosing who supplies and fits window coverings in your home.

Make It Safe — child safety matters to us

BBSA membership also underlines our commitment to child safety. We follow the BBSA’s Make It Safe campaign, which promotes cordless and safe-by-design window coverings and responsible advice around looped cords and chains.

Every home is different — especially where children or pets are present — and we take the time to recommend solutions that look beautiful and meet current safety guidance. That might mean motorised blinds, wand-operated options, or shutters with no loose operating cords at all.

Why we chose to become accredited

Shutter Envy has spent more than 14 years building a reputation on careful measuring, honest advice and installations we are proud to put our name to. BBSA accreditation was a natural next step:

  • For you — extra peace of mind that we work to recognised UK industry standards
  • For us — ongoing access to technical guidance, training and best practice
  • For the trade — raising standards across blinds and shutters nationwide

We remain the same family-run team serving Leicestershire. This badge simply makes official what our customers have told us in hundreds of five-star reviews.
