Fitting & Finishing Services for Selly Oak homes
We run a dedicated Birmingham handyman rota through Selly Oak from the streets around University of Birmingham Old Joe clock tower outwards. With student-let front gardens gather leaf mulch that stains sandstone within a season if left, 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 B29 usually clears three or four jobs, priced up front.

Every fitting & finishing job we do in Selly Oak
Each service below has its own Selly Oak 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 Selly OakRoller, 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 Selly OakFeature 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 flat 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 Selly OakCarpet, 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 Selly Oak — FAQs
How much do fitting & finishing services cost in Selly Oak?
Selly Oak (B29) 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 Selly Oak?
Nine in ten B29 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 Selly Oak properties?
Yes. University quarter of red-brick terraces, HMOs and post-war semis around the Bristol Road corridor. Our fitters are briefed on victorian pressed brick, concrete driveways and Marshalls block paving and carry the fixings and blades that suit it, so we're not improvising in a listed or conservation-area home.
Which Selly Oak streets and postcodes do you cover?
The whole B29 outward area and the neighbouring Birmingham districts, including everything within reach of University of Birmingham Old Joe clock tower. 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 Selly Oak, 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 B29 conversions.
What's included in the Selly Oak fitting & finishing services hub?
