Cost to Fit Blinds



Job
Description   (These prices assume that you are buying the blinds)
Labour
1Fit one blind……. He will charge half a day because once the instructions have been read, re-read then chucked away, the blind hung and possibly tensioned, he will be a nervous wreck.
£100
2Now he’s an expert, so he can hang 2 more blinds before lunch and 4 afterwards.
£190

“Labour” at £175 a day (tradesman) £100 (labourer), includes incidental fixings etc. and tipping charges. “Materials” if mentioned, are larger things (a boiler) and stuff only you can choose (tiles etc).  Also VAT must be added all round.

Information Sheet on Fitting Window Blinds


We are pricing for the sort of blinds that have a roll at the top, are pulled down and stay where they are left. Is there another kind?

There are probably 20 different designs of blinds and we are keeping 
well out of any decision-making processes, regarding which ones you decide on.

In fact the person who 
will make the decision isn’t actually asking her husband what he would like when she consults him, she’s simply bouncing ideas off him. So matey, just stand there, absorb the flak, (there will be flak), admit it’s all your fault (there will be blame) and make sure you measure the window accurately or that’s £85 down the swanny!
