Curtain Rod Fixer :-)

Hi all - I am looking for someone who can fix the curtain rod at my flat.
I have tried doing it myself a few times but it seems to keep falling off so thought I better get some help.
What sort of a person should I be looking at to do these kind of odd-jobs to help me and where?

Many thanks

  • Hi

    Where in the country are you? There might be someone who has used a decent curtain fitter,or good handyman.

    Ideal job for a competent handyman. I would have jumped at the job during my handyman period.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

  • I am based in Bournemouth so my best bet is to search for a "handyman" on yell.com?
