Blind fitting in London
Silver Saints fit roller, Roman, Venetian, blackout, vertical and day and night blinds across London. You supply the blinds and brackets. We bring the fixings, tools and the fitting.
Plus fixings. No call-out fee. Saturday at the weekday rate. Estimate before we start.
What we fit
You buy the blinds. We fit them level, secure and tested. Most single windows are done inside the first half-hour.
Roller blinds
Fitted inside or outside the recess, depending on reveal depth and blind width.
Roman blinds
Bracket height set so the fabric stacks cleanly when the blind is raised.
Venetian and wooden blinds
Aluminium or wood, levelled accurately so the slats tilt and close properly.
Vertical blinds
Header track levelled and supported along its length so the carriers do not sag.
Blackout and day-night blinds
Wider and heavier units, fixed with anchors rated to the blind weight.
Bay window blinds
A separate blind per pane, each reveal measured on its own.
Recess or face fitting
We advise which suits the reveal depth and the condition of the plaster.
Lath and plaster reveals
Short screws into the lath or the stud, not plugs that pull through thin plaster.
Child-safe cords
Cords and chains kept out of reach or fitted with a safety device.
We fit roller, Roman, Venetian, wooden, vertical, blackout and day and night blinds. We fix into lath and plaster, plasterboard, solid brick, tiled and concrete reveals, using the right anchor for each. You supply the blinds and their brackets. We bring the tools, the wall fixings and the specialist bits.
Curtains rather than blinds? See curtain rail fitting. Different job again? See hanging pictures and mirrors, fitting shelves, and draught proofing sash windows.
What it costs
Labour only, charged by time. Fixings are on top and you get an estimate before we start. The times below are typical, not fixed prices.
Where we cover
We cover all London boroughs plus the TW, KT, CR and BR postcode areas. London walls run from Victorian lath and plaster to new-build plasterboard and post-war concrete, so we carry fixings for all of them. Engineers cross central London by motorcycle and scooter, which means faster arrival and easier parking.
Landlords and letting agents
Between-tenancy blind replacement is one of the jobs we do most. We arrange access with your tenant or collect keys from your agent, so you do not need to attend.
Account invoicing and pre-approved spend limits are set out on our landlord services page.
Child safety and the standard
Corded blinds fitted in a home should meet BS EN 13120, the standard for internal blinds and child safety.
It requires cords and chains to be kept out of a child's reach, or fitted with a safety device such as a cleat, tensioner or breakaway.
In practice we fit the safety device supplied with your blind and set the cord clear. If none was supplied, we will tell you what the blind needs.
Why Silver Saints
Blind fitting FAQs
Can you fit blinds today in London?
Often yes. Silver Saints usually has same or next day slots for blind fitting in London, and every booking carries a one-hour arrival window.
How much does blind fitting cost in London?
Most single windows are done inside the first half-hour, so from £60 plus VAT in labour. Silver Saints then charges £30 plus VAT per half-hour.
Can you fit blinds on lath and plaster reveals?
Yes. Silver Saints fixes into the lath or the stud behind it, because standard plugs pull straight through the thin plaster of a London period reveal.
Can you fit blinds in a bay window?
Yes. Silver Saints fits a separate blind to each pane, measuring every reveal on its own, because bay panes in London are rarely the same width.
Can you drill a tiled window reveal?
Yes. Silver Saints uses diamond-tipped bits at low speed, or drills the grout joint where the bracket allows, to fit blinds in London bathrooms safely.

Yes. You supply the blinds and their brackets. Silver Saints brings the wall fixings, the specialist bits and the fitting to your London home.

Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Silver Saints gives a 12-month guarantee on labour and on parts we supply for blind fitting in London, against faulty workmanship or failed parts.

Curtain rail fitting in London
Silver Saints fit curtain poles, tracks and bay window systems across London. You supply the pole or track. We bring the fixings, tools and the fitting, usually the same or next day.
Plus fixings. No call-out fee. Saturday at the weekday rate. Estimate before we start.
What we fit
You buy the pole, track or rail. We fit it level, fixed into something that holds, and drawing smoothly before we leave.
Single and double poles
Wood, metal or plastic systems on standard wall brackets, set level and to height.
Straight curtain tracks
Corded and uncorded, including glider systems for lined curtains.
Bay window poles and tracks
Flexible or jointed track measured to the real bay angle, then cut or bent to shape.
Heavy-duty rails
Centre support brackets and closer centres for lined, interlined or blackout curtains.
Long-span tracks
Intermediate wall or ceiling brackets where the curtain weight needs more support.
A fallen pole or track
Pulled-out fixings filled and the bracket re-fixed into the stud, not the old hole.
Track repair and replacement
Worn gliders, broken end stops or a bowed track that will not draw past the middle.
Lath and plaster walls
Studs located and fixed into with long screws, because plaster alone will not hold.
Picture rail systems
Where drilling is restricted, curtains hung from the original rail with no wall fixings.
We fit poles, tracks, bay systems and heavy-duty rails, and we repair or replace tracks that have failed. We fix into lath and plaster, plasterboard, solid brick, timber and concrete, including the concrete crosswalls common in mansion blocks. You supply the pole or track system. We bring the tools and the wall fixings.
Blinds rather than curtains? See blind fitting. Different job again? See hanging pictures and mirrors, fitting shelves, and draught proofing sash windows.
What it costs
Labour only, charged by time. Fixings are on top and you get an estimate before we start. The times below are typical, not fixed prices.
Where we cover
We cover all London boroughs plus the TW, KT, CR and BR postcode areas. London walls run from Victorian lath and plaster to new-build plasterboard and post-war concrete, so we carry fixings for all of them. Engineers cross central London by motorcycle and scooter, which means faster arrival and easier parking.
Landlords and letting agents
We fit tracks and poles for between-tenancy turnarounds and new lettings. We arrange access with your tenant or collect keys from your agent, so you do not need to attend.
Account invoicing and pre-approved spend limits are set out on our landlord services page.
Period walls and cornices
Above a Victorian or Edwardian window the wall is usually lath and plaster. A plug in lime plaster will pull out under a lined curtain.
We locate the stud, at roughly 400mm centres in Victorian walls and 450mm in Edwardian, and fix into it with a long screw.
Deep cornicing limits how high the bracket can go, so we set the height before drilling. Where drilling is restricted, a picture rail system is the alternative.
Why Silver Saints
Curtain rail fitting FAQs
Can you fit a curtain rail today in London?
Often yes. Silver Saints usually has same or next day slots for curtain rail fitting in London, and every booking carries a one-hour arrival window.
How much does curtain rail fitting cost in London?
A straight pole or track is usually £60 to £90 plus VAT in labour. Silver Saints charges £60 plus VAT for the first half-hour.
Can you fit a bay window curtain track?
Yes. Silver Saints measures the real bay angle on site, then cuts or bends the track to that profile, because London bays are rarely a standard angle.
Can you re-hang a curtain track that has fallen down?
Yes. Silver Saints fills the failed holes and re-fixes into the stud, so the track in your London home holds under the weight of the curtains.
Can you fit a rail for heavy lined curtains?
Yes. Silver Saints fits heavy-duty rails with centre supports and closer bracket centres, so lined or blackout curtains in London homes draw smoothly across a long span.
Can you hang curtains without drilling the wall?
Sometimes. Where drilling is restricted, Silver Saints can fit a picture rail system in a London period room so the curtains hang without wall fixings.
Do I need to supply the pole or track?
Yes. You supply the pole, track or rail system. Silver Saints brings the tools and the correct wall fixings for your London walls.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Silver Saints gives a 12-month guarantee on labour and on parts we supply for curtain rail fitting in London, against faulty workmanship or failed parts.
