Harrow · HA3 · Blinds and curtain fitting
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Kenton fitters · Fixed written pricesKenton HA3 is a regular stop on our Harrow round. Uniform interwar semis between Harrow and Wembley, quiet and residential, so blinds and curtain fitting here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £45, in writing, with insured fitters, brackets matched to the reveal, child-safety devices fitted and the old holes made good.
Overview
This page prices blinds and curtain fitting for Kenton HA3 specifically: inter-war stock, 26% privately rented and 6,923 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Harrow 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
We expect timber stud partitions inside in HA3, cavity brickwork outside — and with 26% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in HA3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in HA3, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — and easy — driveways and wide roads on almost every street.
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.
One fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Easy — driveways and wide roads on almost every street.
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Kenton (Bakerloo, Overground) is the nearest station, so a HA3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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 →

Kenton substrates run to timber stud partitions inside in HA3, cavity brickwork outside — and with 26% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.

Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Kenton, with this being London Borough of Harrow territory, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked.
