Jim was fantastic - efficient, good eye for detail and cleaned up as he went. He was very patient with my 5 year old asking lots of questions. I also felt very comfortable having him in my home. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Jim to others and rebooking him in the future. (Note: I asked for the sheers to be hung two different ways so I can see what I prefer as I live with them).

Top Curtain Rod Installation related questions

The average cost of a curtain rod installation service can range from $40 to $55. But your service might cost more or less depending on the number of curtains, the type of curtain rod, and how long the job is likely to take. Specify the type of blinds and curtains you need to install,  and get the best quotes from curtain rod installers in your area. 

There are well over 30 different types of blinds and curtains, all with different types of rods and tracks. Your installer can advise you on the best curtain track options for your window curtains and space.

Curtain rods should be long enough to cover your window, plus some extra length, depending on if you’d like to install them inside the frame, on the architrave, or just outside the frame. It also depends on the type of blinds and curtains you’re installing.

Curtain installation will usually take anywhere between 20-45 minutes per curtain. Some window coverings (like vertical blinds) will take longer than others.

Research different types of curtains and blinds to get an idea of what type of curtain you’d like. Measure the windows and discuss the measurements and your preferences with the installer prior to their arrival.

If curtain rod installations aren’t perfectly straight and professionally finished, the result could be an unsafe or unattractive wall covering. Plus, your professional will be aware of legal requirements for adjustment chain length to ensure child safety.

What does a curtain rod installation service include?

New blinds or curtains can uplift the beauty and privacy of your space. If you're planning to have new curtains or blinds installed, Taskers can help with the job. Curtain installers can help you set up different types of window treatments. Whether you prefer Venetian blinds, vertical blinds, roller blinds, traditional curtains, eyelet curtains, classy drapes, or simple shades, your Tasker will apply their expertise and recommend the best solution when installing blinds and curtains in your home.


Here are the most common services you can get from professional blinds and curtain rod installers in your area:

Curtain installation

Your professional installer will measure and mark where the curtain brackets will go, making sure that the curtains will completely cover the window. Next, they’ll secure the brackets in place with screws and place the rod on the brackets, checking that the rod is level. If your Tasker is placing the brackets between wall studs, they may use plastic screw anchors to prevent the screws from coming out and damaging the walls. Finally, they’ll add the curtain rings to the rod, then secure the rod in place with more screws.

Curtain track installation

While there is a variety of curtain tracks available, most installations will start by measuring the space to determine where to fit the brackets. They’ll screw the brackets into place and fit the curtain tracking, ready for installing your curtain.

Shades/roller blind installation

It’s common to book blind and curtain installation together if you need both types of window coverings. For shades, also known as roller blinds, your installer will first measure and mark the area where the mounting brackets are going to be placed on the window frame. Next, they’ll drill holes into the marks before securing the mounting brackets on the marked area with screws, making sure that the male and female pieces go on the correct sides of the window. Finally, they’ll click the shades into place and fix in a tensioning device to secure the adjusting chain.

Curtain rod repair

Broken rods may be repaired or replaced, depending on the type and extent of the damage. If the rod bracket has been pulled out of the wall, your repairer will start by removing the curtain rod and drilling holes through the wall above and below where it was mounted. They’ll place small plastic anchors through each of these holes, before reattaching the curtain mounts to these anchors. Alternatively, your contractor may choose to repair the hole and re-attach your curtain mounts in a slightly different spot. If the curtain rod has been bent, your handyman may also be able to straighten it out using tools before re-hanging.

Curtain Track & Curtain Rod Installation

$150

Flagstone QLD 4280, Australia

8th Jul 2026

Looking for an experienced handyman to install a curtain rod and two IKEA VIDGA curtain tracks in my home. You will need to bring your own tools, including a hacksaw/pipe cutter to trim the VIDGA tracks to size. The job includes: 1. Front Living Room: Install 1x standard curtain rod above the window. 2. Sliding Doors (x2): Install IKEA VIDGA curtain tracks above two separate sliding doors. Each sliding door opening requires a track length of about 240cm. Because VIDGA tracks come in standard 140cm pieces, you will need to cut and connect multiple pieces together using the IKEA joiners to achieve the 240cm length for each door. Please let me know your availability when making an offer. Thanks!

CURTAIN ROD BRACKET REPAIR

$10

Sanctuary Lakes VIC 3030, Australia

13th Jun 2026

Task 1 – Curtain Rod Middle Bracket Repair & Remount I have a black curtain rod in my home theatre room where the centre support bracket has pulled out of the drywall, taking some of the wall compound/paper with it. I need someone to fix this properly so it holds heavy blackout/theatre curtains securely. Photos of the damage are attached. What needs to be done: • Remove the loose/damaged bracket cleanly • Patch and repair the damaged drywall area so it’s smooth and paint-ready (ideally by cutting out the damaged section, backing it with a timber noggin behind the plaster, then patching, sanding, and finishing) • Remount the existing bracket using heavy-duty wall anchors (into a stud or with solid backing) • Ensure the curtain rod sits level and is strong enough to hold heavy theatre curtains without pulling out again I’m also open to a quick-fix option (preferred way) if it can be done cleanly and strongly: remove the damaged anchor screws, fill the old holes, and install new heavy-duty anchors in slightly repositioned locations — no full wall patch needed if the result is solid. Please let me know in your quote which approach you’d take. Task2 I also have a small chrome wall-mounted holder (photo attached) that has come off the wall. The mounting plate has two screw holes. I just need someone to screw it back securely into the wall using appropriate anchors. Suburb- Point Cook Thanks

Absolutely fantastic service! The tasker was punctual, professional, and did an excellent job fixing my curtain rods and handling the mounting work. Everything was done neatly and securely, and he made sure I was happy with the final result before leaving. Communication was easy and friendly throughout. I highly recommend his services and would definitely book again in the future. Thank you!
