Some of our items are returnable should you no longer require them. Any item that has been custom made, made to order or cut to your required width/length is non-returnable. Please see below for more information:

Please check the guidelines below and then simply post the item back to us with RETURNS and your order number clearly labelled on the outside of the packaging, e.g. 'RETURNS #100000111' Please post all returns to our distribution office;

Please just make sure;
- You contact us within 14 days of receiving your order.
- The items are returned to us within 30 days of receiving your request to return.
- The items are returned to us in perfect condition and packed back in their original packaging so that the item is re-sellable.
- The packaging must be intact as we would love to sell the item again.
Postage labels must be attached to outer packaging (ie. A mailing bag or brown paper) and NOT the packaging that is specific to the item as this renders it damaged and not re-sellable. A refund may be denied if the item specific packaging is damaged.
We recommend using a tracked service when sending items back to us.
We are sorry but no postage costs will be refunded unless an item is faulty.
Hardware & Ready-Made Products
Products that fall under this category are as follows:
- Ready-Made curtains
- Ready-Made Net & Voile panels
- Ready-Made blinds
- Unopened Complete rolls of Net & Voile
- All Accessories that have not been customised.
- Any other item that is a pre-made product that is not cut, made to order or customised in any way before despatch.
PLEASE NOTE: This excludes any ready made panel that has been customised, such as an altered drop or heading, track or pole cut to length and any Custom Made, Express or Made to Order items. As soon as a ready made product is customised, it is treated as a fully bespoke order and is non-returnable. Any Ready Made, Made to Order or Hardware Item that has been altered by yourself or anyone acting on your behalf is not returnable.
*Please be aware, items (such as tracks, poles and blinds) over 120cm will incur significant return postage costs as they cannot be sent via Royal Mail or My Hermes. We can arrange a courier collection from your selected address for long length items. Please contact us if you would like us to provide a quote for this for you, this can either be paid for upfront or deducted from your refund. Please be aware that you would need to ensure that these items are packed suitably for the courier to collect.
Please make sure the item is not visibly open, damaged, marked in any way with pen or grease, washed, smells of smoke or washing powder, or is in any condition that we deem renders the item unsaleable.
The customer is responsible for the item being returned to us so please make sure you take adequate steps to ensure the security of the contents during transit back. We cannot be held responsible for exchange or refund if reasonable steps are not taken. All items must be returned with all relevant swing tags, labelling, branding, packaging, inner packaging and any accompanying marketing material specific to the item.
The items must be in their original condition and will be inspected once we have received them. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.
Cut (Express), Custom Made & Made to Order
When an order is cut or sewn to your specifications from our express or custom made range this then makes the product non-returnable. This is also applicable to our Made to Order products and any tracks or poles that have been cut to the length requested.
We therefore cannot accept returns due to personal taste or mistakes with incorrect sizes on any made to measure, made to order or cut to order item. If you are unsure of whether you will be happy with your fabric/design choice, we strongly advise that you request a free sample before you place your order.
You can do this by:
Email: hello@netcurtainsdirect.com
Telephone: 02380844714
or by filling out our Contact Us form on our website.
You can select up to 5 designs/colours of your choice and we can dispatch them the very next day, if ordered before midday!
This will ensure the fabric, design and/or colour is what you are expecting. We would advise you to hold the sample in the place it will be hung in daylight. Although every effort has been made to photograph each and every product with accuracy, we cannot guarantee that your device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products correctly. Please note that due to the nature of fabrics, colours can vary slightly between batches, however, we do endeavour to ensure our samples are kept up to date with our current collections.
Unfortunately, windows come in many different shapes and sizes which would make it extremely difficult for us to re-sell any custom made orders, therefore anything customised is non-returnable and non-refundable.
This complies with the current applicable Consumer Contract Regulations.
Products that fall under this category are as follows:
- Custom made Net & Voile curtains
- Any Express Net & Voile curtains (all are cut from the roll to the desired widths)
- Made to measure curtains

- You contact us within 7 days of receiving your order.

Once we have received notification from you:
- You will be asked to provide photographic evidence of any fault or issue, so that we can resolve the error as quickly as possible with our workroom. We will advise as to what photos are required depending on the - issue.
- It is highly likely that we will request that items are returned to us (this may initially be at your cost) or we may provide you with a pre paid returns label (if in the UK).
We recommend using a tracked service when posting items back to us.
If an item is believed to be faulty it is likely, that once we have received images, we will require the item to be posted back to us for assessment by our workroom prior to any remake or remedial action being taken.
We will not be liable for any returns postage costs incurred by yourself should you choose to post the item back without having discussed this with us.
If we can confirm that there was a fault present when we originally despatched the order you will be entitled to whichever we see fit, either a replacement or full refund, including postage charges via your original payment method.
We endeavor to ensure every order is inspected prior to dispatch and in the unlikely event that your custom made order is faulty (after the above details have been adhered too) we will ensure we will either remake the order to a satisfactory standard or fix the current order in an efficient and timely manner thus ensuring that we adhere to The Sale of Goods Act 1979. This states that if goods are not as expected then a consumer can request a repair or replacement.
Please be aware that we are unable to deem an item as faulty if repairs or alterations have been made by yourself in an attempt to remedy any faults or measuring errors. This is also applicable if an item is found to be faulty by yourself after any alterations have been carried out.
PLEASE NOTE, most of our rods and tracks are sent with a courier and the following procedure must be followed if the package/item is found to be faulty/broken upon receipt of delivery:
- If the delivery is signed for as 'clear', when the packaging looks intact, but the product inside is found to be damaged once opened, this must be reported to us as soon as possible on the day of the delivery for us to escalate further.
Cancelling Orders
If you change your mind once you have placed an order and have not yet received your goods you may be able to cancel your order. We need written confirmation of cancellation from you, so you’ll need to contact us at hello@netcurtainsdirect.com quoting your order number as soon as possible.
This will only be applicable to the following scenarios:
- We have not cut or prepped any of the fabrics or materials to make your order
Once we receive your cancellation request, we then need to speak with the workroom to ascertain as to whether your order has been started. We aim to have this response within 48 hours.
If we have started to cut and/or sew your custom made order it cannot be cancelled.
If we have already despatched your ready made order you must follow the above returns procedure.
International Returns
All international customers are responsible for the costs in sending items back to us.
