Fitting & Finishing Services for Harborne homes
We run a dedicated Birmingham handyman rota through Harborne from the streets around Moor Pool Estate (1907, Grade II conservation area) outwards. With mature Metchley limes deposit heavy tannin-rich leaf drop each October, we let paper and carpet acclimatise in the room before fitting so nothing shrinks back at the seams. Book the list rather than the item: an hourly slot in B17 usually clears three or four jobs, priced up front.

Every fitting & finishing job we do in Harborne
Each service below has its own Harborne page with local pricing and booking. Combine several in one visit and you pay a single call-out.
- Poles, tracks and blindsBlinds & Curtain Fitting in HarborneRoller, 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.From £45 →
- Feature walls and full roomsWallpaper Hanging in HarborneFeature walls and full rooms papered in standard, vinyl, textured, grasscloth and paste-the-wall papers. Preparation is most of the job: older West Midlands plaster needs filling, sanding and sizing before anything goes on it, and skipping that is why paper lifts at the seams within a year. High-rise and apartment work around the city centre is handled with lift bookings, floor runners and out-of-hours slots on request.From £90 →
- Carpet, underlay and vinylCarpet Fitting in HarborneCarpet, underlay, vinyl and runners fitted to rooms, stairs and landings. Stairs are the test — West Midlands Victorian and Edwardian staircases have winders, irregular risers and out-of-square landings, and a fitter who only does straight flights will leave you with visible gaps at every turn. Handymen run from depots covering Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry, Dudley, Walsall and Wolverhampton, so most lists are booked same or next day.From £80 →
Fitting & Finishing Services in Harborne — FAQs
How much do fitting & finishing services cost in Harborne?
Harborne (B17) pricing starts at £120 room carpet fit. You get the full figure in writing before the fitter sets off — there is no travel surcharge inside Birmingham and no on-the-day extras.
How quickly can you get to Harborne?
Most B17 bookings are filled within 3–5 working days, and we hold same-week slots for urgent jobs. Our Birmingham rota runs Monday to Saturday.
Do you work on older Harborne properties?
Yes. Village-in-the-city with Georgian townhouses on the High Street and Arts-and-Crafts closes off Metchley Lane. Our fitters are briefed on warm buff Victorian brick, Yorkstone kerbs and imprinted concrete and carry the fixings and blades that suit it, so we're not improvising in a listed or conservation-area home.
Which Harborne streets and postcodes do you cover?
The whole B17 outward area and the neighbouring Birmingham districts, including everything within reach of Moor Pool Estate (1907, Grade II conservation area). If you're on the boundary, send the postcode and we'll confirm in writing.
Do you supply the carpet, blinds or paper?
We fit what you've bought. If you'd rather we sourced it, we'll recommend Birmingham suppliers and fit within the same visit window.
How do you measure a bay or reveal?
Three measurements across the width and drop, taken in the room — essential in Harborne, where original reveals are rarely square.
Can you fit carpet on stairs?
Yes — £220 for a straight flight up to 14 treads, quoted individually for winders and the split flights common in B17 conversions.
What's included in the Harborne fitting & finishing services hub?
Blinds & Curtain Fitting, Wallpaper Hanging, Carpet Fitting — each with its own Harborne page, pricing and booking slot. Combine any of them in one visit and you only pay one call-out.
