Handyman & Assembly Services · Sandwell, West Midlands · B65
Roller, venetian, vertical, roman and perfect-fit blinds, plus curtain poles, tracks and bay-window systems. Bay windows are the West Midlands speciality problem — Edwardian and Victorian bays across Kings Heath, Moseley and Sutton Coldfield need a bent or jointed pole set out to the actual angles, not an off-the-shelf straight run. One-hour minimum then 30-minute increments, no call-out fee, and £2m public liability cover on every West Midlands visit.

Local knowledge
Rowley Regis market town of Victorian miners' rows and 1950s Council estates. That housing mix shapes every blinds & curtain fitting job we run in B65 — access, parking and the volume that actually comes out of a property.
Crews know the routes around St Paul's Church, Blackheath and the Rowley Hills, plan loading where residents' parking is tight, and work to the collection windows your street or building allows.
Day to day that means working around Blackheath town centre traffic and station parking, using the main A-road links rather than narrow B65 back streets, and booking council recycling-centre slots in advance where waste has to be tipped. Fine granite dust from the historic quarries still coats south-facing walls in dry easterlies.
Not listed? We cover the whole of the West Midlands — ask and we'll confirm the next available slot.
On the ground in Blackheath
A blinds & curtain fitting in Blackheath is priced on time and access, but it succeeds or fails on the fixing. With staffordshire blue engineering brick dominant across Sandwell, that is not a detail we leave to chance on site.
Blackheath landlords and letting agents book us between tenancies for bed frames, wardrobe repairs, re-hung blinds and re-fixed shelving — the small defects that hold up an inventory sign-off.
Blackheath properties are predominantly staffordshire blue engineering brick: Black Country terraces and workshops built from Staffordshire blue engineering brick — near-vitrified, low-porosity and famously unforgiving. That means SDS-plus rotary hammers with tungsten-tipped bits, resin anchors for anything structural, and slow speeds so the bit does not glaze over. Get it wrong and a standard combi drill and masonry bit will skate across blue brick, burn out the bit and leave a shiny crater instead of a hole. On load, once anchored, blue brick is the strongest substrate in the region — it will out-carry the bracket every time. Our handyman carries the full fixing range in the van, so the substrate never turns into a second visit.
Fine granite dust from the historic quarries still coats south-facing walls in dry easterlies. For outdoor furniture, garden structures and anything fixed to an external wall in Blackheath, that dictates the sealant, the ground anchor and the corrosion grade of the fixings we use.
Blackheath's terraces sit on a steep gradient with stepped entrances, so we allow additional carry time on anything over 30kg.
Every Blackheath visit is billed from a one-hour minimum then in 30-minute increments, with no call-out fee. If the list finishes early you pay for the time actually worked.

Blackheath (B65, Sandwell, West Midlands) is rowley Regis market town of Victorian miners' rows and 1950s Council estates. St Paul's Church, Blackheath and the Rowley Hills anchors the area, and the streets around it are built largely in Rowley Regis granite setts (quarried on the doorstep), blue brick and grey concrete.
That matters for blinds & curtain fitting: fine granite dust from the historic quarries still coats south-facing walls in dry easterlies. Roughly 40% of the housing stock here pre-dates the war and 56% is flats or terraces, so our crews plan for stair turns, shared entries and tight kerbside loading rather than assuming driveway access.
We work Blackheath alongside Cradley Heath, Oldbury, Halesowen, Dudley, which keeps travel time short and lets us hold morning and afternoon slots in the same B65 run.
Our Blackheath crews are Black Country crews. They know that locals name the town, never the borough: it is Tipton or Cradley Heath, not Sandwell or Dudley, that boots off in the front room, van kept off the entry so the neighbours can still get their bins out, and that a blinds & curtain fitting booking in B65 is judged on turning up when we said we would. Everything below is written the way the job is actually described on the doorstep here.
