Curtain pole and blind fitting

Curtain & Blind Fitting in Eastbourne

Curtain & Blind Fitting

Measured carefully. Fixed securely. Finished neatly.

Fitting curtains and blinds properly is often less about the fitting itself and more about knowing what you are fixing into. Dmytro can measure carefully, assess the wall or window area and choose a suitable fixing method for a secure and tidy installation.

A careful installation

The fixing behind the curtain matters

Curtain poles, tracks and blinds need to be level, correctly positioned and securely fixed if they are going to work properly and stay in place.

Different walls require different fixings, so Dmytro takes the time to consider whether he is fixing into masonry, timber, plasterboard or another surface before starting.

What I can fit

Curtains, blinds and window fittings

Curtain Poles

Measuring, positioning and securely fitting curtain poles to suitable walls.

Curtain Tracks

Installation of curtain tracks where appropriate for the window and room.

Roller Blinds

Careful fitting and alignment of roller blinds.

Venetian Blinds

Installation and adjustment of standard Venetian blinds.

Other Blinds

Other straightforward blind systems where suitable fixings and instructions are available.

The way I work

Measure first. Drill second.

A good installation starts with checking the position and the wall rather than simply drilling where the bracket happens to land.

Wall type matters

Not every fixing works in every wall

A masonry wall, timber frame and plasterboard wall all require different fixing methods. Choosing the right fixing is an important part of making sure a curtain pole or blind stays secure.

Masonry Use fixings suitable for solid brick, block or similar surfaces.
Timber Secure directly into suitable timber where available.
Plasterboard Use an appropriate fixing method for hollow or boarded walls.
Position Check that brackets are level, correctly spaced and securely supported.

Before the visit

A few things help the job go smoothly

Have the fittings ready

Keep the pole, track, blind, brackets and supplied hardware together.

Know where you want it

It helps to decide roughly how high and wide you want the fitting before work begins.

Send a photograph

A picture of the window and surrounding wall is often useful before the visit.

Send product details

A link or model number can help Dmytro understand the fitting before he arrives.

Need curtains or blinds fitted?

Send Dmytro a photograph of the window and the fitting.

That is usually enough to start discussing the job and whether any special fixings may be needed.
