Overview
Blinds and curtain fitting in West Hampstead NW6, explained
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around West Hampstead, blinds and curtain fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 88% of West Hampstead's 4,309 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in NW6 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How blinds and curtain fitting works in West Hampstead
Five steps, the same on every NW6 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In NW6, Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions — and with 40% one-person households in West Hampstead, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Reveal and drop check
Depth, square and drop measured at both ends, and we confirm recess or exact-fit sizing.
Step 2
Substrate test
Detector sweep for cables and pipes, then a reveal test — sash box, lintel, dot-and-dab or uPVC — so the fixing suits the window.
Step 3
Brackets set
Brackets levelled for the headrail weight and packed where the reveal runs out of true.
Step 4
Hang, square and test
Blind or pole hung, drops squared, mechanism cycled and the child-safety device fixed 1.5m from the floor.
Step 5
Make good and clear up
Old fixings removed, holes filled and sanded ready for paint, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Why West Hampstead customers book us
Four things decide whether a NW6 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
West Hampstead walls, not generic walls
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs; locally that also means with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 21% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in NW6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, which is what a 88% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Hampstead actually produces.
Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every corded blind gets the BS EN 13120 child-safety device, photographed for the job record — the evidence landlords are asked for.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts.
Fixed prices
Blinds and curtain fitting prices in West Hampstead
Fixed prices for NW6 and the rest of Camden. Window count and reveal type set the price. Bays, concrete lintels and shallow sash reveals cost more because the bracket has to be packed or the fixing changed.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single roller or venetian blind | £45 | 20–30 min | Includes the reveal check — face-fix or top-fix changes the bracket. |
| Additional blind on the same visit | £25 | 15–25 min | One call-out and one permit shared across every window in the room. |
| Curtain pole or straight track | £55 | 30–45 min | Lined curtains are heavy, so the fixing must reach timber, lintel or masonry. |
| Bay window pole or bent track | £120 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | London bays are rarely symmetrical, so the track is bent to the real angles. |
| Wooden or made-to-measure venetian | £65 | 40–60 min | Heavier headrail, more brackets, slats squared against an out-of-true reveal. |
| Motorised or electric blind | £95 | 1–1.5 hrs | Bracket, battery or transformer siting and remote pairing, cabling kept in the reveal. |

Scope
What's included in West Hampstead
The same scope across NW6, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In West Hampstead: reveal survey before drilling — depth, square and lintel type, sized for the very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts
- On NW6 jobs: brackets matched to sash boxes, lintels, dot-and-dab or uPVC, blinds and curtain fitting prices included
- Standard on Camden bookings: bS EN 13120 child-safety device on every corded blind, with 4,309 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Old poles removed, holes filled flush, packaging taken away, checked on every NW6 visit
Not included
- Made-to-measure blinds ordered to the wrong size — we re-measure and reorder, outside the fixed price on West Hampstead bookings
- Structural alterations, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, and we will say so before the NW6 visit rather than on the day
- Hard-wired mains blind circuits — notifiable work for a registered electrician, handled by London Borough of Camden or a specialist contractor instead

I had a deep cleaning service done at my home on Sunday, and I am extremely impressed with the results. The team (two ladies and a man) did an excellent job cleaning the entire house, including the kitchen, kitchen hob, window blinds, bedroom wardrobes, and mirrors.

West Hampstead NW6 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers West Hampstead — the numbers that actually change a blinds and curtain fitting quote.
4,309 households sit inside the NW6 neighbourhood covering West Hampstead. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 88% of those homes are flats.
Because 49% of West Hampstead is privately rented and 21% socially rented, a lot of NW6 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect lath and plaster over timber studs; locally that also means with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 21% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first behind the plaster in NW6. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, which is what a 88% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Hampstead actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
West Hampstead sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — three stations, a busy high street and streets of red-brick Victorian conversions — which is why a NW6 quote is not a Camden average.
On access, very tight parking, narrow terraced streets and flats up two to four flights without lifts — one reason one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Fitters travelling in use West Hampstead (Jubilee, Overground, Thameslink).
