Overview
Blinds and curtain fitting in Ealing W5, explained
This page prices blinds and curtain fitting for Ealing W5 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 41% privately rented and 18,588 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Ealing permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How blinds and curtain fitting works in Ealing
Five steps, the same on every W5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — which is why London Borough of Ealing kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded 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 Ealing customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Ealing wall.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) is the nearest station, so a W5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Ealing walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 45% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Ealing gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 63% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Ealing actually produces.
Fixed prices
Blinds and curtain fitting prices in Ealing
Fixed prices for W5 and the rest of Ealing. 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. |

I had a deep cleaning service done at my home on Sunday, and I am extremely impressed with the results.

Ealing W5 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Ealing — the numbers that actually change a blinds and curtain fitting quote.
In Ealing (W5) the split is 63% flats to 37% houses over 18,588 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The renter-heavy mix here (45% owned, 41% privately rented) means a W5 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 45% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in W5. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Ealing gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 63% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Ealing actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
The Queen of the Suburbs — Walpole Park, the studios and a busy Broadway. That character decides the practical detail of blinds and curtain fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Ealing is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) is the nearest station, and one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds.

Common questions
Blinds and curtain fitting in Ealing W5 — your questions.
How much does blinds and curtain fitting cost in Ealing W5?
Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Ealing on the Ealing rounds, with Ealing parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 on the streets near Ealing Studios and Walpole Park, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory.
Can you fit blinds without drilling into a uPVC frame in Ealing W5?
Usually yes — no-drill tension brackets keep the window warranty intact on W5 jobs, with Ealing parking rules in play, which matters in Ealing where 41% of homes are privately rented. Heavy wooden venetians and blackout Romans still need a fixed bracket on the Ealing rounds, with 32% one-person households here, and we say so before you buy.
Do you fit bay window poles and tracks in Ealing?
Yes — it is the job we do most around Ealing Studios and Walpole Park on W5 jobs. Bays here are rarely symmetrical, so each angle is measured and the track bent or the blinds cut to individual drops around Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District), with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood. 5 hours from £120.
What are the window reveals like in Ealing?
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork on Ealing bookings — and Ealing Studios and Walpole Park a few streets away, where 45% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W5, with 18,588 households on this patch, and that decides the fixing: timber sash box, concrete lintel or a plasterboard reveal bridged into the blockwork behind. The mistake we undo most here is Ealing gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs in this 63% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood — and 18,588 households on this patch, which is what a 63% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Ealing actually produces.
How quickly can you reach Ealing from your Ealing round?
Ealing Studios and Walpole Park is the marker we route to on the Ealing rounds — and Ealing Studios and Walpole Park a few streets away, with 63% of homes here being flats, and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. A W5 slot added to an existing Ealing round usually lands the same week rather than the next on W5 jobs, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory.
Is same-day or evening blinds and curtain fitting available in Ealing?
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available on this side of Ealing. Ealing sits close to Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) across W5, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood — and 14% social-rented stock nearby, so we can usually add a W5 job to an existing Ealing round at short notice.
Do you handle difficult access in Ealing?
Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks on W5 jobs. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Ealing it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the streets near Ealing Studios and Walpole Park — and Ealing Studios and Walpole Park a few streets away, with 14% social-rented stock nearby.
