A handyman with a carpentry background would be perfect for this job and cheaper than a carpenter . A reasonably simple job to put a baton on a wall Fell free to contact me John- The Man Handyman

You will need to locate the joists if your hanging from the ceiling, normally you would hang from above the window, a good diy person should be able to do this

You would really just need a property maintenance person just care to be taken when drilling to the ceiling in case on hidden pipes or cables, hope this helps, Tim
