Return Window: You have 15 days from the exact date you receive your item to request a return.

SECTION 2 - MADE-TO-MEASURE PRODUCTS (Custom Curtains & Blinds)
Our made-to-measure curtains and custom items are individually tailored and handcrafted to your exact custom specifications and specific measurements. As such, in compliance with UK consumer law regarding personalized goods, we follow strict industry guidelines:
-
No Change-of-Mind Returns: We are strictly unable to accept returns, offer exchanges, or provide refunds if you change your mind, are unsatisfied with your fabric/color selection after production, or if incorrect measurements were provided to us during ordering. We highly encourage utilizing our fabric details and ordering free samples before finalizing your order.
-
Faults or Order Errors: We will gladly accept returns, structural alterations, or issue a full refund only if the product arrives with a manufacturing fault, is damaged in transit, or does not match the exact specifications and measurements confirmed in your original order. In such cases, please notify our customer service team within 7 days of delivery at support@sophialiving.co.uk, providing clear photos and a description of the issue. Sophia Living will cover 100% of the return shipping costs for faulty custom items.
🌟 Exclusive 3-Year Warranty on Custom Curtains
We stand firmly behind the premium quality of our work. All of our Made-to-Measure Curtains come with an exclusive 3-Year Warranty covering manufacturing defects, stitching integrity, and fabric faults under normal household use. If your custom item develops a structural fault within 3 years of purchase, please contact us immediately so we can arrange an efficient repair or replacement at no additional cost to you.
SECTION 3 - HOW TO INITIATE A RETURN
To return an eligible standard item, or to report a fault under warranty, you must follow our authorized return process:
-
Request Authorization: Email our customer service team at support@sophialiving.co.uk with your Order Number and the reason for your return. Do not send items back without prior written authorization.
-
Pack Safely: Once authorized, secure the item in suitable, protective packaging to avoid any damage during transit. Please write your Order Number clearly on the outside of the return package.
-
Ship Your Package: Post your item to our dedicated Returns Department at the address verified below. We strongly recommend using a tracked or signed-for delivery service, as Sophia Living cannot be held responsible for items lost or damaged in transit.
SECTION 4 - REFUND PROCESSING TIME
