Curtain rails and blinds fitted
A curtain pole sags when the end brackets are in the wall and there is no support in the middle. A three-metre track needs a centre bracket — that is the whole secret.

- Routine work 24–48 hours, emergencies often the same day
What the job includes
- Measuring the window and marking the fixing points
- Fitting the pole, track or blind dead level
- Ceiling and wall fixing, with backing where the ceiling is plasterboard
- Adjusting roller and pleated blinds
How we do it
We measure from the window opening, not from the existing pole — the old one is often in the wrong place. In a plasterboard ceiling we find the channel or use a through-fixing. Every track goes up with a spirit level rather than by eye: a crooked curtain is the first thing a visitor notices.
Good to know
If you are planning a blackout blind, check first whether it fits inside the reveal or has to sit on the wall. Get that wrong and light leaks down the edges, which cannot be fixed afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
Can you measure beforehand?
If you are ordering the blinds yourself, send a photo of the window and we will tell you how to measure. For larger orders we come and measure free of charge.
How long does one window take?
20–30 minutes per window. With several windows the price per window drops.
