Cambridge Awnings is the dedicated awnings division of Cambridge Blinds, a family-run business with over 30 years of experience helping homeowners across Cambridge and the surrounding villages improve their homes.
While Cambridge Blinds has built its reputation through thousands of successful installations and customer recommendations, Cambridge Awnings focuses exclusively on helping customers choose the right awning solution for their home and lifestyle.
Many of our customers obtain multiple quotations before making a decision. The feedback we hear most often is surprisingly simple:“We felt comfortable.”
Our goal has never been to secure a sale on the day.
Our goal is to help customers make the right decision.

We believe customers deserve transparency.
Our quotations clearly explain what is included, the available options and the associated costs.

Posted on Google Lynzey MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Cambridge Blinds. Cameron fitted an electric blind in my bedroom and a shutter in my en suite, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Cameron was professional, friendly, and clearly knew what he was doing. The installation was done efficiently, with a lot of attention to detail, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. Both the electric blind and the shutter look fantastic and work perfectly. The quality is excellent and has really improved the look and feel of both rooms. I’d happily recommend Cambridge Blinds, especially Cameron, for anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality service.Posted on Google Chris LuptonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cameron was professional and kept me informed throughout the process. Turned up on time and did an outstanding job fitting the flyscreens. I can highly recommend the product (Centor) and his service.Posted on Google Michael OTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have ordered a substantial size awning from Cameron. Entire process was smooth and very professional. Installation was a breeze (thanks to the fantastic team) and we could not be happier with the overall service. Thoroughly recommend it.Posted on Google one2culinarystewTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic service from Cameron who has the experience and expertise to order the part needed to repair a broken blind mechanism. The part had to be ordered from another country and he kept us updated every step of the way. He personally came to the house to carry out the blind repair and was done in a flash! We highly recommend Cameron and Cambridge Blinds.Posted on Google Thomas William WhiteheadTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Well, where to start…. I had recently completed a major and long-term restoration/renovation at my house. This included many relatively new technologies and smart systems throughout. Among these were numerous and varied automatic curtains and blinds, operated in three ways; In the case of the curtains, by physical touch (a gentle pull in one direction or the other, thereafter completed by the automation). Remote control. Voice operation. There were also blinds of one sort or another throughout the property, including one blackout blind in a bedroom and two very large, heavy specialist acoustic curtains in a small cinema room. Unfortunately, for reasons unnecessary to go into here, the installation was less than perfect and problems had been present from the start. We couldn’t get all of the units to speak to the same hub, one unit would operate whilst triggering another elsewhere in the house, handsets that should’ve been present were missing, one unit was completely non-operational et cetera et cetera. This issue had been ongoing for many months over the course of the renovation and was indeed one of the last problems to be resolved. Several people other than the original installer, all of whom had opinions which were at least worth listening to, had looked into it and while some ground was made, there were still many problems... Enter Cameron. My intelligent systems technician found our noble protagonist on the Internet and things immediately got better. On his first visit, he was able to immediately identify one of the core problems which had eluded everybody, including the original installer. Motors in some of the units were mismatched to the control units and hub, therefore stumbling the connection and communication process and further more hindering setting up parameters, such as at what points curtains and blinds should stop, et cetera. Furthermore, he was able to flag up that two handsets were missing and two others were not really appropriate for the job I was also able to ascertain, with his accumulated wisdom, that a second hub I had been erroneously advised to purchase by another individual, was surplus to requirements and in actual fact making things worse by creating a conflict of communication… As an added bonus to that particular cock-up, he was even able to advise me where best I might manage to sell said item, in the hopes of recouping most of my unnecessarily spent pounds. In short, I was well and truly up the creek with this whole system, facing weeks, if not months, of painstakingly slow research and discovery by both myself, my electrician, my intelligent systems technician, et cetera et cetera, to work out what Cameron breezed through and nailed in about an hour and a half in total, over the course of two visits. On top of that, my mother immediately warmed to him and was hugging him and giggling cheekily almost immediately. 🙄 Do I need to say any more people? I cannot begin to describe how much I wish I had come across Cameron at the beginning of my job, all those many months ago now. Not only would it have made my life so much easier regarding that element of my own renovation, I am by profession a property developer at a small scale and could’ve used his services on several of my projects in the past. I’ve spent most of my life, both as a child and adult, around the building profession in one way or another, through my father’s endeavours and latterly my own. I know a straight shooter when I meet one and I know high quality workmanship, knowledge and application to task when I see it. I’m very glad to have added him to my list of tradespeople and if you have any requirements that his skills could address, I would very strongly suggest you do the same! Don’t be like me people. Get him in at the beginning of the job and do it right from the start, rather than getting him in at the end to fix everyone else’s cock ups!Posted on Google Patricia BoulhosaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding product, outstanding service. Cameron and his team are friendly and professional. I highly recommend them.Posted on Google James WaterworthTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Cameron and Cambridge Blinds for our beautiful new Weinor awning. Your level of service and professionalism is second to none. Always responsive and helpful, you have explained everything keeping us informed throughout the entire process. Today's trouble-free installation is the cherry on the top. Absolutely brilliant!Posted on Google suki mannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had several large electric blinds and venetians installed. This company is the finest that I've ever dealt with. Cameron is an artist. Great guy. Brilliant service.Posted on Google Romeo ValentineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cameron from Cambridge blinds is one of the nicest, honest and genuine companies I've had the pleasure of working with. Always upfront and on time with great communication. Hope to work with you again on our next large project.Posted on Google Nigel HornerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A really first class job fitting an outside blind system to keep the heat out of the house in the summer. It was fitted in one morning and works perfectly, many thanks Cameron and crew.
We ordered a nice awning from Cambridge Awnings and have now just had it fitted. Time from order to completion was very close to the time scale quoted. We found Cameron Brookes very helpful and the entire fitting went smoothly despite a challenging job to get the awning to the fitting site. We chose this awning as it was the only one that could supply the case and brackets in a colour that matched the surrounding woodwork. We can throughly recommend this firm they are very efficient.

It was lovely to work with Cameron Brookes from Cambridge Awnings. He was prompt in his visit to discuss and measure what we wanted. He had excellent advice on the materials and colour matched perfectly. Follow up of the paperwork was great. Due to accident at the supplier, there was a delay, but this was all communicated promptly. Installation was efficient and the result is just what we had hoped for. We now have a high quality, fab awning; all we need now is for the weather to improve! Thank you so much. I would very much recommend.
