What affects the price
- Job size and scope — bigger or more complex jobs move you up the ranges above.
- Access and condition — hard-to-reach areas, older properties or neglected maintenance add labour time.
- Materials and quality level — where materials are involved, the grade you choose often matters more than labour.
- Urgency — same-day or out-of-hours work usually carries a premium.
- Where you live — large metros in Cyprus typically run above the national range; smaller towns below it.

Frequently asked questions
What is the child-safety rule for blind cords?
Looped cords and chains strangle toddlers, and most countries now regulate them: new blinds must be cordless, have inaccessible cords, or ship with tensioners and cleats that must actually be installed. If you have young children, choose cordless or motorized — and retrofit tensioners on existing corded blinds today.
Are motorized blinds worth it?
For hard-to-reach windows, large arrays, and anyone standardizing on smart-home control, yes — battery motors have made retrofit easy with no wiring. The premium per blind is real, so many homes motorize the living areas and keep manual controls in bedrooms. Check app/hub compatibility before buying.
How much does blind installation cost?
Installers charge per window or per hour, with the product itself the bigger cost. Simple roller and venetian fits are quick jobs; bay windows, tall stairwell windows, motorized blinds and plantation shutters cost more to fit. Supply-and-install packages from blind companies usually beat separate labour on price.
Can curtain rails and heavy curtains go on any wall?
Tracks and poles need proper fixings: into studs or with appropriate anchors in masonry, and heavy blackout or velvet curtains multiply the load. Plasterboard alone won't hold a loaded pole — pull-outs are the most common curtain-fitting failure. Concrete lintels above windows need a hammer drill.
How do I measure windows for blinds?
For recess fits: width and drop at three points each, using the smallest; note obstructions like handles and tiles. For face fits: add overlap each side and above. Millimetre precision matters for made-to-measure — which is exactly why supply-and-install retailers include measuring in the price.
Should blinds be fitted inside or outside the window recess?
Inside (recess) mounts look neatest and suit deep windows; outside (face) mounts block more light around the edges and hide shallow or uneven recesses. Light-blocking priorities decide: for bedrooms, outside-mounted blackout blinds or blinds with side channels beat recess fits.
How long does blind installation take?
A straightforward window takes 20-40 minutes; a whole home of 8-12 windows is usually a half-day to a day. Add time for masonry drilling, tall or awkward access, and motorized blinds that need pairing and charging.
What do curtains and blinds cost in Cyprus?
Roller or venetian blinds land €60-200 per window supplied and installed; a living-room curtain set €300-900. Handyman fitting of ready-made products runs €10-25 per window.
