Professional curtain pole repair for sagging, broken, or loose poles and brackets. We fix poles securely, replace damaged brackets, and ensure curtains hang properly and operate smoothly.
Curtain pole repair services across Exeter and Devon. Sagging curtain poles are common problems - heavy curtains, incorrect bracket spacing, or poor wall fixings cause poles to droop or pull away from walls.
We diagnose curtain pole issues and provide lasting repairs. This typically involves replacing pulled brackets, adding additional central support brackets, upgrading wall fixings, or repositioning brackets for better weight distribution. We ensure poles are level, securely fixed, and can handle your curtain weight.

What to Expect
1. Diagnosis - We examine pole, brackets, and fixings to identify the problem. We check wall condition and curtain weight to determine the right repair approach.
2. Repair work - We remove failed components, install new or repositioned brackets with appropriate wall fixings, rehang the pole level and secure.
3. Testing - We test pole strength, check curtain operation, ensure everything is secure and level, then tidy up completely.
🔧 DIY Tips
Bracket spacing - Curtain poles need brackets every 100-120cm maximum. Long poles with only end brackets will always sag under curtain weight.
Wall fixing depth - Brackets need to be fixed into solid wall, not just plaster. Use wall plugs rated for the weight and ensure screws penetrate at least 40mm into solid material.
Curtain weight - Heavy lined curtains create significant load. Consider pole diameter and bracket strength when choosing curtain poles.

Good to Know
If brackets have pulled out multiple times, it often indicates weak wall areas or insufficient fixing depth. We may need to reposition brackets slightly or use specialist fixings for your wall type. We'll explain options and recommend the most secure solution.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does curtain pole repair cost?
Curtain pole repair costs £60 for the first hour, covering most single pole repairs including bracket replacement and refixing. Complex repairs may require additional time at £50 per hour.
Why is my curtain pole sagging?
Common causes include brackets pulling out of walls, too few brackets for pole length, heavy curtains, or brackets fixed to weak plaster rather than solid wall.
Do you supply replacement brackets?
We carry common bracket types and can source specific replacements if needed. If your pole is unusual, we may recommend bringing a bracket for matching.
Can you repair poles that have pulled out of the wall?
Yes, we refix using appropriate wall fixings for your wall type. Often we need to use new fixing points slightly offset from failed holes for secure mounting.
