Overview
Blinds and curtain fitting in Nunhead SE15, explained
This page prices blinds and curtain fitting for Nunhead SE15 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 20% privately rented and 7,127 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Southwark permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How blinds and curtain fitting works in Nunhead
Five steps, the same on every SE15 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, as the Nunhead stock goes, which is what a 58% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Nunhead actually produces 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 Nunhead customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Nunhead wall.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Nunhead (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Nunhead walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SE15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — and with 30% one-person households in Nunhead, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.
Fixed prices
Blinds and curtain fitting prices in Nunhead
Fixed prices for SE15 and the rest of Southwark. 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 Nunhead
The same scope across SE15, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SE15 jobs: reveal survey before drilling — depth, square and lintel type, agreed on the doorstep in Nunhead before anything is unpacked
- In Nunhead: brackets matched to sash boxes, lintels, dot-and-dab or uPVC, timed against the walk in from Nunhead (Southeastern)
- BS EN 13120 child-safety device on every corded blind, noted on the Nunhead job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Southwark bookings: old poles removed, holes filled flush, packaging taken away, allowing for the 20% of SE15 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
Not included
- Made-to-measure blinds ordered to the wrong size — we re-measure and reorder, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE15
- Structural alterations, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, which we refer on to the right trade in Nunhead
- Hard-wired mains blind circuits — notifiable work for a registered electrician, handled by London Borough of Southwark or a specialist contractor instead

Nunhead SE15 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Nunhead — the numbers that actually change a blinds and curtain fitting quote.
The SE15 stock around Nunhead Cemetery is mainly Victorian. ONS records 58% flats, 42% houses and 7,127 households in Nunhead.
Private renting sits at 20% and owner-occupation at 41%; the first group books blinds and curtain fitting at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Nunhead is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — and with 30% one-person households in Nunhead, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Anyone who knows Nunhead knows the pattern near Nunhead Cemetery: cemetery, hill views and a quiet village green between Peckham and Brockley. We plan the SE15 visit around it. Nunhead sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
On access, steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station — one reason one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Fitters travelling in use Nunhead (Southeastern).

Common questions
Blinds and curtain fitting in Nunhead SE15 — your questions.
How much does blinds and curtain fitting cost in Nunhead SE15?
Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Nunhead on the streets near Nunhead Cemetery, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood, 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 this side of Southwark, with 30% one-person households here.
Can you fit blinds without drilling into a uPVC frame in Nunhead SE15?
Usually yes — no-drill tension brackets keep the window warranty intact on the Nunhead rounds, with Southwark parking rules in play, which matters in Nunhead where 20% of homes are privately rented. Heavy wooden venetians and blackout Romans still need a fixed bracket on SE15 jobs, with 58% of homes here being flats, and we say so before you buy.
Do you fit bay window poles and tracks in Nunhead?
Yes — it is the job we do most around Nunhead Cemetery across SE15. Bays here are rarely symmetrical, so each angle is measured and the track bent or the blinds cut to individual drops around Nunhead (Southeastern), with 42% of Nunhead homes being houses. 5 hours from £120.
What are the window reveals like in Nunhead?
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SE15 across SE15 — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, with 30% one-person households here, 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 drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — and with 30% one-person households in Nunhead, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site on this side of Southwark — and 39% social-rented stock nearby, with Southwark parking rules in play.
Is same-day or evening blinds and curtain fitting available in Southwark?
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available in this 58% flats neighbourhood. Nunhead sits close to Nunhead (Southeastern), with 42% of Nunhead homes being houses, so we can usually add a SE15 job to an existing Southwark round at short notice on this side of Southwark.
Do you handle difficult access in Nunhead?
Steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station across SE15. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Southwark it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the Nunhead rounds, with 41% owner-occupation locally — and 42% of Nunhead homes being houses.
Are your fitters insured for work in SE15?
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 on the Nunhead rounds — and 58% of homes here being flats, with this being a short walk from Nunhead (Southeastern). That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat across SE15, with 20% of SE15 homes being privately rented.
