Curtains Caringbah

Caringbah splits into two fairly different halves. North of the Kingsway you've got established family homes close to the shops and the light-industrial strip along Captain Cook Drive, and south of it, in Caringbah South, the streets run down toward Port Hacking with a mix of older waterfront homes and newer architect-built houses that make the most of the water. The Curtain Lab fits custom curtains and blinds across both, made to measure in Sydney, with a free in-home measure and quote before anything is ordered.

The waterfront end near Port Hacking brings a set of problems that don't come up as much further from the water: reflected glare off the water in the afternoon, higher humidity that some fabrics handle worse than others, and in a few of the newer builds, floor-to-ceiling glass that needs proper weight and drop to sit right rather than a standard off-the-shelf curtain. Further north, closer to the Caringbah Leisure Centre and the main shopping strip, the housing is more standard brick and weatherboard, and the main issue is usually just privacy from a busier street.

Curtains for Caringbah homes

Blockout Curtains | The Curtain Lab
For the waterfront homes in Caringbah South, we get a lot of requests for sheer curtain fabric, which keeps the water view intact through the day while cutting down the glare that comes off the water in the afternoon. Bedrooms in both halves of the suburb typically go with blockout curtain fabric for the obvious reasons, darkness, insulation and a quieter room if you're near Captain Cook Drive. In the newer architect-built homes with tall glass doors, our wavefold curtains hang cleanly without the bunching you get from a standard track, and they suit that more contemporary style of home well. For the older brick homes further from the water, pinch pleat curtains tend to fit the room better than a more casual style.

Blinds for Caringbah homes

Roller blinds cover most of the requests we get here, fitted in sunscreen fabric for rooms that need the glare cut without losing the light entirely, which comes up often on the water-facing side of Caringbah South. Venetian blinds in timber or aluminium give more precise control over light through the day, useful in home offices and studies where screen glare is an actual problem rather than just a comfort issue. Roman blinds work well in the smaller bedrooms typical of the older housing north of the Kingsway, adding some texture without taking up the space a full curtain would. If you're after something more permanent for a waterfront property, it's also worth asking about our plantation shutters, which hold up well against the higher humidity near the water.

Why homeowners in Caringbah use us

We manufacture everything here in Australia rather than importing pre-cut sizes, which matters in a suburb with as much variation in window size and style as Caringbah has between its older brick homes and newer waterfront builds. Jobs are generally measured, made and installed within about ten days, and we back every installation with a five-year warranty. With more than fifteen years in the trade, we've fitted enough waterfront homes near Port Hacking to know which fabrics actually cope with the humidity and which ones will need replacing within a couple of years. Have a look at our completed projects for examples of similar work.
