Overview
Blinds and curtain fitting in Hither Green SE13, explained
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Hither Green, blinds and curtain fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 64% of Hither Green's 3,309 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE13 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How blinds and curtain fitting works in Hither Green
Five steps, the same on every SE13 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — and with 30% one-person households in Hither Green, 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 Hither Green customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Hither Green wall.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Narrow terraced streets, level crossings and permit bays near the station.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Hither Green (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE13 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Hither Green walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SE13, with metal stud partitions between rooms, with 20% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SE13, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Hither Green gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, the reality on the streets around Manor House Gardens.
Fixed prices
Blinds and curtain fitting prices in Hither Green
Fixed prices for SE13 and the rest of Lewisham. 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 Hither Green
The same scope across SE13, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

- Brackets matched to sash boxes, lintels, dot-and-dab or uPVC, noted on the Hither Green job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Hither Green: bS EN 13120 child-safety device on every corded blind, timed against the walk in from Hither Green (Southeastern)
- On SE13 jobs: old poles removed, holes filled flush, packaging taken away, agreed on the doorstep in Hither Green before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Made-to-measure blinds ordered to the wrong size — we re-measure and reorder, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE13
- Structural alterations, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, outside the fixed price on Hither Green bookings
- Hard-wired mains blind circuits — notifiable work for a registered electrician, handled by London Borough of Lewisham 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.
