Paragon Shading: Local shading solutions

Posted on June 30th, 2025 in Harlow Business Case Study

Harlow-based entrepreneur Jonas Paulauskas has transformed years of industry experience into a thriving new venture: Paragon Shading. With a background in both large-scale corporate projects and bespoke home improvements, Jonas brings a wealth of hands-on expertise in indoor and outdoor shading solutions.

Frustrated by an industry with little attention to customer care, Jonas launched Paragon Shading to operate from a realm of competence—where integrity, transparency, and exceptional service were core values. Paragon Shading pride themselves of foundation of reliability and professionalism. Jonas told us:

“I was working 12-hour days and wasn’t happy, I thought, if I’m going to work this hard, I’d rather do it for myself and make a real difference for clients. I’ve always believed in doing things the right way—being honest, reliable, and delivering great results. In my opinion too many businesses operate under the same failing paradigm, neglecting staff training and prioritizing profits over people,” Jonas explains. “This leads to endless frustration for clients and, ultimately, the downfall of those companies. We’re here to change that.”

Paragon Shading offers a comprehensive, end-to-end service—from expert consultation and precise measuring to sourcing, manufacturing, installation, and aftercare. Every project is backed by a warranty, ensuring peace of mind for clients.

The company specializes in both interior and exterior shading solutions, with a wide range of products including curtains and blinds (manual and electric), awnings, outdoor shutters, external Venetian blinds, insect screens, pergolas, and more. Whether it’s a compact home or a large commercial space, Paragon Shading customizes every solution to fit perfectly—no window is too tricky, and no project too big or small.

“We pride ourselves on fast, personable service,” Jonas said. “I run the business the way I’d want to be treated as a customer—quick responses, clear communication, and no unnecessary delays.”

One of Paragon Shading’s standout features is its visual communication approach. Clients receive detailed documents with design drawings and transparent quotes, helping them easily visualize how their new shading will look in any space—from kitchens to patios.

The team includes skilled fitters, installers, sales professionals—and even Jonas’s wife, who has joined the growing business. In an exciting development, Paragon Shading is now building a design showroom at Greenway Business Centre, offering customers a hands-on experience with products, colours, and finishes.

Jonas has big ambitions for the future.

“We aim to become the UK’s leading indoor and outdoor shading company—offering the best in price, service, and speed. We want every customer to be thrilled with our work and proud to recommend us.”

Whether you’re refreshing your home with new blinds or creating a shaded outdoor retreat, Paragon Shading is ready to help. They also welcome commercial projects and partnerships, offering expert advice and a seamless, full-service experience. For a friendly chat or to get started, contact Paragon Shading today.
