Top Curtain Rod Installation related questions

The average cost of curtain pole installation can range from £5 to £220. But your service might cost more or less depending on the number of curtains, the type of curtain pole, and how long the job is likely to take. Specify the types and number of curtain poles to be fitted to get the best quote and find out if there are any added costs from curtain pole installers in your area. 

There are well over 30 different types of curtains, all with different types of curtain rods/poles and tracks. Your Tasker can advise you on the best option for your curtain and space.

Curtain rods should be long enough to cover your windows, 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 curtain you’re installing.

Curtain fitting 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 for your windows. Measure the windows and discuss the measurements and your preferences with the installer prior to their arrival.

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

What does a curtain rod installation service include?

Curtain installers can help you set up different types of curtains or window treatments, so you can have extra privacy and enhance the beauty of your space. Whether you prefer Venetian blinds, traditional curtains, shower curtains, or simple shades, your installer will apply their expertise and recommend the best solution for your home's blinds and curtain installation service. 


Here are the most common services you can get when booking professional curtain rod installers in your area:

Curtain installation

Your 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 curtain fitters are 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 are different types of curtain tracks, 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 track, ready for hanging your curtain.

Shades/roller blind installation

It’s common to book blinds and curtain fitting 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

Curtain fitters can repair or replace rods, depending on the type and extent of the damage. If the curtain 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, curtain fitters may choose to repair the hole and re-attach the 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.
