SOVA Shades – Returns, Remakes & Warranty

Returns, Remakes & Warranty

Shopping for custom window coverings online should feel clear, transparent, and supported. Because most SOVA Shades products are custom made to your measurements and selections, our policies are designed to balance the nature of custom manufacturing with fair and practical customer support. If something does not seem right, we are here to help.

Custom-Made Products

Most SOVA Shades products are custom made specifically for your order, including drapes, curtains, blinds, shades, rods, tracks, hardware, and selected accessories. Because these products are made to your selected size, fabric, colour, and options, they cannot be resold or restocked. For this reason, custom-made products are generally not eligible for return, exchange, or refund unless there is a confirmed manufacturing defect or an error made by SOVA Shades.

Before You Place Your Order

We encourage customers to carefully review measurements, product selections, fabrics, colours, mount types, operating systems, and hardware options before placing an order. If you are unsure, our team is happy to provide guidance before you order.

Order Changes & Cancellations

Orders may be modified or cancelled within 24 hours of purchase, provided production has not started. Orders cancelled before production begins are eligible for a full refund. Once production has started, changes, cancellations, refunds, or exchanges are no longer possible.

Measurement Errors

If incorrect measurements are submitted by the customer, the order is not considered defective because products are manufactured according to the measurements provided during checkout. If a measurement error occurs, please contact us. Depending on the product and situation, a discounted remake may be available at our discretion.

Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Products

Please inspect your order immediately upon delivery. Any damage, manufacturing defect, incorrect item, missing component, or shipping-related issue must be reported within 48 hours of delivery. To submit a claim, please provide your order number, clear photos of the product, and clear photos of the packaging. Claims submitted after 48 hours may not be eligible for review.

Manufacturing Errors

If a product is found to contain a manufacturing defect or if SOVA Shades made an error in production, measurements, materials, colour, hardware, or order processing, we will review the issue and arrange an appropriate solution, which may include replacement parts, repair guidance, a remake, or a replacement product at no additional cost.

Colour, Fabric & Natural Material Variations

Colours may appear different depending on screen settings, natural light, room lighting, wall colours, flooring, and surrounding furnishings. Fabric dye lots may vary slightly between production batches. Natural fading over time and minor dye lot variation are normal characteristics of textile products and are not considered manufacturing defects. Colour variation, dye lot variation, natural fabric characteristics, and personal colour preference cannot be used as reasons for return, exchange, or refund.

Installation Responsibility

SOVA Shades is an online custom window covering company. Customers are responsible for confirming that they are comfortable with measuring and installation before placing an order. Installation-related issues resulting from improper installation are not considered manufacturing defects and are not covered under warranty.

2-Year Limited Warranty

SOVA Shades provides a 2-Year Limited Warranty against manufacturing defects in materials, workmanship, hardware, and operating mechanisms under normal residential use.

5-Year Limited Motor Warranty

Eligible motorized products include a 5-Year Limited Warranty on the motor system against manufacturing defects under normal residential use.

What Is Covered

Our warranty covers manufacturing-related issues that occur under normal residential use, including:

  • Defects in materials or workmanship
  • Faulty operating mechanisms
  • Defective hardware components
  • Manufacturing-related motor defects during the applicable warranty period

If you believe your product has a manufacturing issue, please contact our team with photos and your order details. We will review the situation and help determine the most appropriate solution.

What Is Not Covered

Our warranty does not cover issues resulting from circumstances outside of manufacturing quality or workmanship, including:

  • Incorrect measurements provided by the customer
  • Incorrect product selection
  • Change of mind or personal preference
  • Improper installation
  • Accidental damage
  • Product misuse or neglect
  • Unauthorized modifications or repairs
  • Normal wear and tear
  • Environmental conditions or exposure
  • Natural fabric fading over time
  • Dye lot variation between production batches
  • Colour differences caused by lighting, screen settings, or surrounding finishes

These situations are not considered manufacturing defects and are therefore not covered under warranty.

Our Commitment

If something doesn't seem right, please reach out.

We understand that custom window coverings are an investment in your home, and ordering online requires trust.

While custom-made products cannot always be returned or exchanged, we believe every situation deserves a fair review.

If an issue results from our workmanship, manufacturing, or order processing, we will take responsibility and work toward an appropriate solution.

Our goal is simple: to help you make confident decisions and enjoy a better experience from start to finish.
