Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Canary Wharf, blinds and curtain fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 98% of Canary Wharf's 3,528 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E14 shape the slot length we hold.
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. Estate permits from Canary Wharf Management, booked goods lifts and loading docks below ground.
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR) is the nearest station, so a E14 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 — and with 41% one-person households in Canary Wharf, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in E14, 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 — a median age of 31 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
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 Canary Wharf
The E14 stock around One Canada Square is recent new-build. ONS records 98% flats, 2% houses and 3,528 households in Canary Wharf.
Private renting sits at 59% and owner-occupation at 27%; the first group books blinds and curtain fitting at short notice, the second plans it.
Canary Wharf substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — and with 41% one-person households in Canary Wharf, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. 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 — a median age of 31 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a E14 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Canary Wharf knows the pattern near One Canada Square: tower cluster of banks, malls and high-rise apartments on the old West India Docks. We plan the E14 visit around it. Canary Wharf 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, estate permits from Canary Wharf Management, booked goods lifts and loading docks below ground — one reason one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Fitters travelling in use Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR).

Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Canary Wharf around Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR), with this being London Borough of Tower Hamlets territory — and Tower Hamlets 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 this side of Tower Hamlets, with 3,528 households on this patch.
Usually yes — no-drill tension brackets keep the window warranty intact on the streets near One Canada Square, with 15% social-rented stock nearby, which matters in Canary Wharf where 59% of homes are privately rented.

Bays here are rarely symmetrical, so each angle is measured and the track bent or the blinds cut to individual drops in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 27% owner-occupation locally. 5 hours from £120. Near One Canada Square that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — and with 41% one-person households in Canary Wharf, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in E14 around Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR), with 41% one-person households here — and 27% owner-occupation locally, and that decides the fixing: timber sash box, concrete lintel or a plasterboard reveal bridged into the blockwork behind.

All three. With 59% of Canary Wharf privately rented and 27% owner-occupied, roughly half the E14 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on E14 jobs — and 15% social-rented stock nearby, with One Canada Square a few streets away.
