blinds & awnings in Looe
East and West Looe — Local Blind and Awning Specialists on Your Doorstep
blinds & awnings in Looe, serving Cornwall since 1910
Looe is one of south Cornwall's most enduring and genuinely charming coastal towns, a working fishing community split across two sides of the Looe River and connected by a medieval bridge that frames one of the most photographed views in the county. East and West Looe each have their own character, but share the same qualities that draw visitors and buyers: authentic Cornish charm, a thriving fishing harbour, beautiful surrounding countryside in the Looe Valley, and easy access to some of the finest beaches on the south coast. The properties here range from tightly packed fishermen's cottages in the old town, through Victorian seafront terraces and guest houses, to modern detached homes and rural farmhouses in the valley and villages beyond. Rogers Blinds and Awnings serves Looe and the wider south east Cornwall area from our Saltash base, just eighteen miles up the A38.
made to measure blinds in Looe
Looe's housing stock reflects its history as a fishing and seaside town. The older properties in East and West Looe are characterised by small windows, thick walls, and deep reveals that demand precise made to measure fitting. Plantation shutters are particularly popular in the fishermen's cottages and period properties of the old town, providing excellent light control, privacy, and a finish that suits the character of the building. For the Victorian seafront properties and guest houses, Roman blinds in quality fabrics and real wood Venetian blinds bring a more formal quality that complements the proportions of the rooms. In the modern detached homes and rural properties of the Looe Valley and surrounding villages, including Polperro, Seaton, Hessenford, and Widegates, our full roller blind and motorised range handles contemporary glazing cleanly and efficiently.

patio awnings & outdoor shading in Looe
Looe's south facing harbour and the sheltered gardens of properties in the Looe Valley make this an excellent area for retractable awnings. The town enjoys good sunshine hours on the south Cornwall coast, and a quality Rogers awning extends outdoor dining and garden use well into the autumn. For properties directly on the seafront or harbour, we specify full cassette motorised awnings with marine grade fabrics and wind sensor protection, ensuring your awning is automatically retracted when conditions off the water demand it.

frequently asked questions — blinds & awnings in Looe
Do you serve Polperro and the villages in the Looe Valley?
Yes. We cover Looe, Polperro, Seaton, Hessenford, Widegates, and all surrounding rural villages and farms in the Looe Valley area. There is no travel charge for the free home survey anywhere in this area.
Can you fit blinds to a fishermen's cottage in the old town?
Yes, and these are exactly the properties where made to measure matters most. Old Looe cottages often have small, irregular windows with deep reveals in thick stone or cob walls that no standard sized blind will ever fit properly. Our surveyors will measure every window with precision and advise on the right product for your specific building.
Do you work with holiday let and guest house owners in Looe?
Yes. Looe has a thriving holiday and guest accommodation market and we work with a number of property owners in the area. We can work around your letting calendar, specify durable products suited to regular guest use, and provide a quick, efficient service that minimises any disruption to your income.
Are your awnings suitable for the seafront properties in Looe?
Yes. For seafront and harbour side positions we always recommend full cassette motorised awnings with marine grade fabrics and wind sensor integration. The full cassette protects the mechanism and fabric when retracted, and the wind sensor ensures automatic protection when conditions off the water change quickly.
