Overview
Blinds and curtain fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2, explained
Blinds and curtain fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Westminster, most of them period conversion. 3,927 households sit inside this WC2 patch, 95% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Royal Courts of Justice rather than a London average.
How it works
How blinds and curtain fitting works in Temple and Aldwych
Five steps, the same on every WC2 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, as the Temple and Aldwych stock goes, where 28% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year 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 Temple and Aldwych customers book us
What follows is specific to Temple and Aldwych: its walls, its access and the paperwork Westminster agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are within 48 hours, with evening and Saturday appointments available. Temple (Circle, District) is the nearest station, so a WC2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Temple and Aldwych walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — which is what a 95% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Temple and Aldwych actually produces in WC2, 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 — the pattern behind 3,927 households inside the WC2 neighbourhood.
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 Temple and Aldwych
Fixed prices for WC2 and the rest of Westminster. 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 Temple and Aldwych
The same scope across WC2, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On WC2 jobs: reveal survey before drilling — depth, square and lintel type, agreed on the doorstep in Temple and Aldwych before anything is unpacked
- In Temple and Aldwych: brackets matched to sash boxes, lintels, dot-and-dab or uPVC, timed against the walk in from Temple (Circle, District)
- BS EN 13120 child-safety device on every corded blind, noted on the Temple and Aldwych job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Westminster bookings: old poles removed, holes filled flush, packaging taken away, allowing for the 44% of WC2 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, and we will say so before the WC2 visit rather than on the day
- Structural alterations, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, outside the fixed price on Temple and Aldwych bookings
- Hard-wired mains blind circuits — notifiable work for a registered electrician, quoted separately if you need it arranged in WC2

I had a deep cleaning service done at my home on Sunday, and I am extremely impressed with the results.

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Temple and Aldwych — the numbers that actually change a blinds and curtain fitting quote.
Walk Temple and Aldwych from The Royal Courts of Justice outwards and the period conversion pattern is obvious: 95% of the 3,927 households in WC2 live in flats, 5% in houses.
Owner-occupation runs at 28% in Temple and Aldwych, so alongside the 44% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Temple and Aldwych substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — which is what a 95% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Temple and Aldwych actually produces. 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 — the pattern behind 3,927 households inside the WC2 neighbourhood is the mistake that costs a WC2 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Temple and Aldwych knows the pattern near The Royal Courts of Justice: barristers' chambers, King's College buildings and the crescent of Aldwych. We plan the WC2 visit around it. Temple and Aldwych 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, embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times — one reason one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds. Fitters travelling in use Temple (Circle, District).

How much does blinds and curtain fitting cost in Temple and Aldwych WC2?
Single roller or venetian blind starts at £45 in Temple and Aldwych, with 44% of WC2 homes being privately rented — and this being a short walk from Temple (Circle, District), and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Window count and reveal type set the price.

Can you fit blinds without drilling into a uPVC frame in Temple and Aldwych WC2?
Usually yes — no-drill tension brackets keep the window warranty intact for Temple and Aldwych (WC2) addresses, with this being a short walk from Temple (Circle, District), which matters in Temple and Aldwych where 44% of homes are privately rented. Heavy wooden venetians and blackout Romans still need a fixed bracket on the streets near The Royal Courts of Justice, with 28% owner-occupation locally, and we say so before you buy.
Do you fit bay window poles and tracks in Temple and Aldwych?
Yes — it is the job we do most around The Royal Courts of Justice on this side of Westminster. Bays here are rarely symmetrical, so each angle is measured and the track bent or the blinds cut to individual drops in Temple and Aldwych, with 3,927 households on this patch. 5 hours from £120.
What are the window reveals like in Temple and Aldwych?
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — which is what a 95% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Temple and Aldwych actually produces in WC2 on this side of Westminster — and 5% of Temple and Aldwych homes being houses, with 95% of homes here being flats, and that decides the fixing: timber sash box, concrete lintel or a plasterboard reveal bridged into the blockwork behind.

Who books blinds and curtain fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 44% of Temple and Aldwych privately rented and 28% owner-occupied, roughly half the WC2 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door around Temple (Circle, District) — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, with 44% of WC2 homes being privately rented.
How quickly can you reach Temple and Aldwych from your Westminster round?
The Royal Courts of Justice is the marker we route to in this 95% flats neighbourhood, with 46% one-person households here — and 3,927 households on this patch, and embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times.
