New curtain poles professionally installed in your home. Fitted level, brackets mounted securely, everything working smoothly. Windows properly dressed, house starting to feel like home.
### Get Your Windows Dressed Properly
You've moved into your **new house** and the windows are bare. You've bought curtain poles but they're still in boxes, and you're not sure how high to fit them, how to get them level, or what fixings you need for your particular walls.
Professional fitting means they're up in hours, fitted right first time, and your curtains are hanging properly.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Fit curtain poles before you paint walls if possible. Makes drilling and positioning easier, and the decorator can cut in around them neatly.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Position & Plan I assess each window, advise on pole height (usually 10-15cm above frame), work out bracket positions that'll give smooth curtain operation. ### Step 2: Fit Brackets Measure up, mark positions level, drill pilot holes, mount brackets securely. Right fixings for your wall type - no brackets pulling out. ### Step 3: Hang & Check Poles go onto brackets, finials added, everything checked for level. Test how curtains will draw, make any adjustments needed.

Good to Know
> 🏠 **Full new home setup?** I can combine curtain pole fitting with blind installation, picture hanging, TV mounting - all the finishing touches that make your new house feel like home. One visit, everything sorted. **Bay windows?** These need either bendy tracked poles or angled joining pieces. Let me know when you book and I'll advise what to buy or bring the right connectors. **Ceiling-mounted poles?** Less common but sometimes the only option (window goes right to ceiling, or very deep reveals). I can fit these too - just needs different brackets. **Very high windows?** No problem - I've got proper ladders and work safely at height. Those big Victorian sash windows with poles 3 meters up are part of the daily routine. **Exeter properties:** Old terraces and townhouses often have thick solid walls or quirky plaster. I come prepared with various fixings and the right drill bits for Devon's older properties.
Frequently Asked Questions about Curtain pole installation new in Sidmouth
Do I need to buy the poles first or can you supply them?
Either way works. If you've already bought poles, great - I'll fit them. If not, I can advise on what to get for your windows and pick them up from local suppliers. Most people buy their own from IKEA, Dunelm, or Amazon.
What types of curtain pole can you fit?
All types - wooden, metal, tracked, eyelet, bay window poles, even those ceiling-mounted ones. They all mount differently but I've fitted hundreds of each.
Can you fit poles to any wall type?
Yes - plasterboard, solid walls, old lime plaster, above windows, into reveals. Just need the right fixings for each type. I come prepared for most situations.
How long does fitting curtain poles take?
Single pole takes 30-45 minutes. Whole house (5-6 poles) usually takes 1.5-2 hours. Bay windows or tricky positions add time but I'll estimate once I know what you've got.
Will they be ready to hang curtains straight away?
Yes - poles go up, finials fitted, everything checked for level and security. You can hang curtains same day. I'll even help you get the first set of curtains on if you want.
