Overview
This page prices blinds and curtain fitting for Sands End SW6 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 36% privately rented and 4,346 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Depth, square and drop measured at both ends, and we confirm recess or exact-fit sizing.
Step 2
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 levelled for the headrail weight and packed where the reveal runs out of true.
Step 4
Blind or pole hung, drops squared, mechanism cycled and the child-safety device fixed 1.5m from the floor.
Step 5
Old fixings removed, holes filled and sanded ready for paint, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
One fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts and estate loading bays on the riverside blocks.
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Imperial Wharf (Overground) is the nearest station, so a SW6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SW6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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.
Fixed prices
| 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
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
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. They made sure there was no dirt or marks… Read in full →

Working in Sands End
The SW6 stock around Imperial Wharf and Chelsea Harbour is mainly Victorian. ONS records 89% flats, 11% houses and 4,346 households in Sands End.
Private renting sits at 36% and owner-occupation at 37%; the first group books blinds and curtain fitting at short notice, the second plans it.
Sands End substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a SW6 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Sands End knows the pattern near Imperial Wharf and Chelsea Harbour: riverside Fulham — old gasworks land rebuilt as apartment quarters beside Victorian terraces. We plan the SW6 visit around it. Sands End is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts and estate loading bays on the riverside blocks — one reason one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Fitters travelling in use Imperial Wharf (Overground).

Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Sands End on this side of Hammersmith and Fulham — and 89% of homes here being flats, with this being London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham territory, 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 Hammersmith and Fulham bookings, with 4,346 households on this patch.
Usually yes — no-drill tension brackets keep the window warranty intact on Hammersmith and Fulham bookings, with 89% of homes here being flats, which matters in Sands End where 36% of homes are privately rented.
