Verdict
Overall sentiment for ScreenAway Blinds is largely positive, with many customers expressing satisfaction with the quality of the blinds, the effectiveness of light and heat blocking, and the professionalism of the installation and sales teams. However, a minority of reviewers experienced notable frustrations regarding post-installation service, communication gaps, and difficulties with warranty support or repairs. Prospective buyers may benefit from clarifying warranty terms and post-purchase support procedures prior to finalising their purchase.
Fantastic experience from start to finish. From initial visit and quote from friendly chap explaining full process and showing examples, to constant communication from Peta in the office and finally Grahame who did the install so quickly and professionally I was always confident of the wonderful outcome. On top of this the product was so much… Read more
better than the one we had installed 10 years ago yet the cost was less, unbelievable, thank you everyone at ScreenAway Blinds. I highly recommend this company.
EDIT: DO NOT USE. Non-existent customer service. Continuous cancellation to fix multiple problems. DO NOT BUY. Waste of time and money. Original review: I cannot in good conscience recommend Screenaway blinds. Less than 3 years after purchasing four blackout blinds for $5600, three of the four had to be replaced due to being faulty. Every few… Read more
months, we have had to get someone out to resolve an issue, whether it be a broken string, a misalignment issue, or the frame moving and the blind sticking. I am currently waiting for a phone call back to rebook, AGAIN, a service tech to come and fix another two issues. This service call has already been cancelled twice in the past two weeks. It seems that once they get your money, they don't seem to give a damn about providing any sort of customer service.
The only reason I have given them 2 stars is because, WHEN they work, they actually work very well. But honestly, more trouble than they are worth. Do your research, and find a company that has good reviews for their after-sales service.
The blinds are excellent and completely block out the light which is perfect for our bedrooms and home theatre. The company communication, support and installation was all to a high standard. I highly recommend ScreenAway. Show details

Great service all the way through and amazing quality! Truly blackout and the sheer blinds behind make the room feel so warm and modern. Love !

Absolutely stoked with my new flyscreen. The whole process was extremely easy and really quick. Jeremy consulted with us to provide a quote and was super helpful. Pat installed the screen and again was fantastic and the job looks great! Show details · 1
As a previous customer, I was impressed by their block out blinds. This time I’m purchasing viewtek screen for my new house and French doors, which are difficult to buy fly screens for. Kathryn is fantastic, easily ordered for me, great price too! Show details · 1
From the first contact to fitting I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Spiro the company representative arrived on time and spent enough time with us to know exactly what was needed. He was so pleasant and easy to deal with that he started to feel like an old family friend. Secondly we were visited by Mark the fitter to do a final measure… Read more · 1
up. So friendly and always sending a message when he’s on the way. The waiting time till fitting date was spot on and again Mark was in touch and did a beautiful job of fitting. The quality of the job and actual product exceeded our expectations. Good job ScreenAway
Absolutely fantastic experience with ScreenAway. We had been told by several other companies that installing a blind on our balcony door would be too difficult because the door opens outwards. ScreenAway came up with the perfect solution, and the result is honestly better than we expected. The blind looks beautiful, is extremely easy to use, and… Read more · 1
when it’s not in use you barely even notice it’s there. The installation was clean and professional, and everything fits perfectly. Really impressed with both the product and the workmanship. Highly recommend ScreenAway, especially if you’ve been told your door or window is “too difficult” for blinds. 5 stars – couldn’t be happier with the result.
We have our fly screen installed very quick and the team were very helpful and efficient and professional We are so happy with the outcome Show details · 1

We recently had blackout blinds installed by ScreenAway in our daughter’s nursery and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The whole process was smooth from start to finish — great communication, professional service and the installation was completed beautifully. The blinds look amazing, fit perfectly and have made such a difference to the… Read more · 1
room, especially for daytime naps and bedtime. The installer was friendly, efficient and left everything clean and tidy afterwards.
Highly recommend ScreenAway to anyone looking for quality blinds and excellent service!

I would not recommend the View tek retractable screen door. They employ pressure sale tactics, It's way over priced for product and installation is rough. You have to pay in full before installation and company will talk in circles if there's a… Read more
problem so I can't imagine the very short 2 yr warranty is worth much. Dispute stating they will look into my concerns after posting review there has been no contact since.
Follow-up · They sent message via product review only, no personal contact saying they would investigate but been no more contact.
I recently had ScreenAway install their ViewTek product at my place. It’s a great alternative to traditional fly screens - minimal, modern, and blends well with our home. The best part is how durable it is. Our dog has crashed into it a few times,… Read more
and it just pops back into place easily. Really happy with the product and the installation.
Update (6 months later): Unfortunately, I've had to revise my rating. About 5 months ago I noticed an alignment issue with one of the screens and reached out to ScreenAway for after-care support. Despite multiple follow-ups, I'm still chasing a resolution. The after-care service has been really disappointing - slow responses and no clear timeline for a fix. The product itself is still great, but the lack of follow-through on warranty and service issues has let the whole experience down. I'd find it hard to recommend them until they sort out their after-sales support
Follow-up · Good news - I finally got through to ScreenAway and they replaced the entire frame. No issues since, three months on. Glad they got there in the end.
Thanks for the great feedback! We’re glad… Read more
Just had our block out blinds installed. Absolutely love them. Our rooms are now dark, perfect for sleeping and keeping the cold air out. Show details · 1
Follow-up · It blocks out alot of the noise, and keeps the cold and hot weather out. They are self-cleaning but even now and then I vacuum the dust off the bottom. The installation was very fast and easy as they were pre-made to fit the windows.

Positive reviews
We have 2 bedroom windows that had double roller blinds which still let in an insane amount of light and heat, making sleep impossible. The difference the installation of Screenaways blockout blinds make is phenomenal. Wish we had installed them originally. Initial Quotation, follow up and installation was excellent. Show reply
I had such a great experience with Screen Away! From my initial phone calls to the flexible service options, everything was top-notch. They were incredibly professional and made the whole process so easy. Plus, their pricing was good for great quality products, which was a huge bonus. I'm really happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend them! Show reply
Blind quality is fantastic, true to what their videos show. Great quality materials and yes it is totally blackout when the blind is completely down!!! Prompt from first contact to installation Show details · 1

Very Disappointing Customer Service – Avoid if You Need Repairs I am extremely disappointed with the customer service from Screen Away Blind. When you are a new customer, they seem very quick to respond and provide service, but once you need a repair, the experience is completely different. I waited three months to get my blind repaired. I was… Read more
willing to pay for the repair, yet my appointment was cancelled three times on the day of the scheduled visit. On one occasion, I even took a day off work and waited for the technician, only to receive a text message in the morning saying they were coming—after all the previous delays and cancellations.
This has been incredibly frustrating and has caused me to waste both my time and money. Good customer service should not stop once the sale is made. If you are considering using Screen Away Blind, I would strongly recommend thinking twice, especially if you expect reliable after-sales service and support.
Very poor after-sales service and extremely disappointing customer experience.
Hi Neha, thank you for your review. We would… Read more
Its evident something has changed at Screen Away and the post install Customer Service has gone to virtually being non existent. You spend all this money to have someone only need to come out again to do repairs after just a short time of operating, then they come and say they need to come back for the exact same time the following week, only to… Read more
not show up at all after being inconvenienced yet again by being 'Available' at home for their supposed visit. Everything from the first consult was off. Made to feel like we were idiots and getting a special deal and special treatment, when the phone speaker to the ear was loud enough to hear exactly what was being said. You try to call as an existing customer only to be met by hold music and no one who ever answers. Finally tried by called as a 'New Customer' and wow, they are quick to answer the phones then. Horrible experience and we are ultimately at a point now where they can come and take their product away and refund the full amount. Not worth the stress and unreliability of the business. And please do not comment asking ME to email YOU. Good customer service is the business following this up directly and not just showing for the public to see you are offering an email address to contact you, probably only to be left without a response. We want no phone calls, everything is to be strictly in writing.
Thank you for your feedback. We'd genuinely… Read more
I have been loath to write my review regarding this company, as I was warned not to be too critical. All I can say is the product I purchased from ScreenAway was not fit for purpose, the upside down blind, which seemed perfect for my purpose, but… Read more
kept breaking down at at a cost of $180.00 every 12 months to get repaired just did not seem worth it. I note that they no longer advertise this product on TV and I was told it has been withdrawn from production for this very reason. No offer of compensation. The blind was only 2 years old when it first broke. Cost me $120.00 to have removed. Cannot recommend this company, due to their lack of customer service and responsibility.
Follow-up · I did take this matter to Consumer and Business Affairs to mediate. Nothing come from that either. I think this organisation is a toothless tiger. Customer Service at ScreenAway did reach out to me, but nothing came of it. So, no blind and no resolution.
Hi Polly, thank you for your review. Can you… Read more (+3 replies)

The worst product and even worse after-sales service. We paid a small fortune (3.6k) for blinds that look nothing like the seamless, fitted product ScreenAway advertises. We were left with obvious gaps, and even after attempts to rectify them with silicone, they still look terrible. Had we been shown an accurate representation of the finished… Read more
product, we never would have purchased them.
I was ignored for months until I lodged a complaint with consumer affairs. That woke them up and now they just want to fill the gaps with more sealant. I did not pay 3.6k to have bathroom sealant all over my windows
Would absolutely not recommend. Do not do it. They changed their product design mid 2025 to save dollars and the new frames now leak light and do not do their job as advertised.
Waste of a LOT of money. First pic I could find but it’s WAY worse than what’s pictured however a much more accurate depiction of the product they actually install.
Hi Stephanie, We are sorry that you remain… Read more
There were 3 visits to complete the service from beginning to end. Each visit was efficient and the two representatives were excellent, being timely, pleasant and knowledgeable. I think the design is great and looks good on the window. Jun, the installer was very good. Show details · 1
