Cost to install electric blinds or curtains

We're doing up the living room and thinking about motorised blinds or electric curtain tracks. What's a rough cost to have these installed, including the electrical work?

"Motorised blinds installation: £150–£300 labour per window (plus the cost of the blinds) • Electric curtain track installation: £200–£400 labour per track (plus the cost of the track) • If a new power supply needs to be installed or concealed cabling is required, electrical work is typically an additional £100–£300.
If you can provide photos of the window area and let me know whether the blinds/tracks have already been purchased, I can give a more accurate estimate."

"Hi with the electrical work it would depend on where power would come from. I.E nearest socket. Be it above or below. Potentially floorboards would need to be pulled up if it was above, Potentially chased in the wall compared to surface mounted trunking depending on your preference. This will all change the time taken to complete the work. For my company you would be looking at between £150 (surface mounted) to £250+ (chased the wall) all this would be excluding materials which would be roughly £50. Hope this helps. Other companies could be different."

"Hi Laura roughly £130-£150 for each blind we have to take in consideration where we will need to get the power from for the motor for the blind."
