Which is Best? Real Timber or Faux-Timber Blinds

Real timber blinds and faux timber blinds both have their own unique benefits. Real timber blinds are made from natural wood and offer a warm, traditional look that can add a sense of elegance to any room. They are highly durable and can last for many years with proper care and maintenance. Faux timber blinds, on the other hand, are made from synthetic materials that mimic the look and feel of real wood. They are an affordable alternative to real timber blinds and can also be an excellent option for people who want the look of wood but do not want to deal with the additional maintenance that natural materials require.

 

The Benefits of Real Timber

 

One of the main benefits of our Timber Blinds is their aesthetic quality. Wood is a timeless material that can add character to homes, no matter if they are traditionally decorated or ultra-modern. Our real timber blinds come in a variety of finishes, but all are unique, as wood is, with grain patterns. We custom-make blinds to fit any window size, using the best quality materials and components.

 

Another benefit of real timber blinds is their durability. Wood is a sturdy and long-lasting material that can withstand daily wear and tear. Real timber blinds are also resistant to moisture and humidity, making them a great option for bathrooms and kitchens. They can also be refinished and repainted, which means that they can look like new for many years.

 

The Benefits of Faux Timber

 

A key benefit of our Artwood Blinds is their affordability. Often less expensive than real timber blinds and coming in a wider variety of styles and finishes, you have more choice and can save money too! This makes them a great option for people who want to add the warmth and character of wood to their home without breaking the bank.

 

Faux timber blinds are also easier to clean and maintain. They are resistant to fading, cracking, and warping and do not require regular treatment; just a frequent clean.

Both our Timber Blinds and Artwood Blinds come with a fantastic finish, durability and the power to enhance any room in your Auckland home. We believe in them so much Total Look Blinds offer a 3-year guarantee on all components and workmanship on timber blinds.

We had double roller blinds installed in our new house. The price was much more reasonable compared to other shops, and their service was reasonably fast. The staff were friendly and helpful!I can't say much about the quality of the material since the blinds haven't been installed for long, but we hope they will be as good as the service we received!
WYNN RIECHELMANN
Absolutely love our TotalBlinds shutters! They have transformed our bedroom. Service from measure up and quote was excellent and communication with the TotalBlinds team was a pleasure! They took half the time than was quoted by another supplier and although they were a bit cheaper, the shutters are very good quality. Plus they are NZ made! Highly recommend!

Bhavika n Divesh Kumar
We used Total Look Blinds in 2005 for our family home. After 19 years of wear and tear we needed some parts and couple of vertical blinds track needed fixing. Took a drive to Takanini and was greeted by the office lady Jo who was very helpful and was amazed when she pulled out our 19 years old invoice from their record. The team manage to fix the track within a day and got the parts i needed at a fair price. Highly recommend them if you want quality products and a fantastic after sales service. Great company to deal with 😊

Kambiz Radman
Could not be happier with my new sun screens and blinds, look awesome. The material seems nice and hopefully durable (I'll update you on that later)."Terry" is a positive Rep who speaks clearly. He measured well but didn't explain some installation details, which confused me afterward. However, "Carolyn" came to the site and explained everything very well. Roger is a professional installer who did a quick and clean job. Thanks "Jo" for admin updates and following up. 101% recommended.
Melissa Slater
