Cleaning blinds around the house usually takes about one to two hours, depending on the number of blinds, amount of cleaning required, and what type of blinds. Lightly dusting can take as little as 10 minutes. However, a deep cleaning of heavily soiled or greasy blinds may require taking the blinds down and scrubbing them. Drying time will also add to how long it takes to clean your blinds.
