What blinds for conservatory roof?

We have an ugly lean to conservatory with plastic roof panels that have seen better days.

We are doing a full refurbishment of the house but can't afford to change the conservatory for another year or two so looking at ways of making it look more presentable.

Does anyone know of any suitable blinds (sheer preferably) that could be permanent hung to conceal the ceiling panels?

We got sail blinds from a company called shadeplus
We are really happy with them

That sounds like the sort of thing we are looking for.

Did you order from them and fit yourselves or did the company fit?

They look fantastic - badders were they horribly expensive?

We had 3 rather large ones (large Victorian style conservatory) and they were £1200 in total
It would have cost another £300 to have them fitted
Much cheaper than any other blinds we looked at
Got a quote of £7000 from Sandersons!
They have a 10 year guarantee and block UV light and you can take them down to wash them
Great solution for us
The company were very good - Skype appointment and they go through different designs on a CAD machine
Lots of colours to choose from but we went with white

Op - if it's a lean to you could have one large sail blind - would be about £300?
