I emailed the company on a Saturday and promptly received a phone call Monday morning from the owner Larry Thomas. We set a repair time for the following Thursday at 3 p.m. He called at 3:15 and said he was running late and arrived at 3:45. After looking at the blind, he said the problem was the lock mechanism so he replaced that along with the 3-cord string with the broken cord. He did not recommend replacing the working cords on the other two blinds which saved me a lot of money. I am very happy with the results and would not hesitate to use his company again. He even told me that delivering the blind to the company for repairs there would've saved more money.

Larry came to my home and was able to replace it with in stock parts. He was obviously experienced and was able to fix it quickly. I wish I had found him years ago. I used a repair service that sent the Duettes back to the manufacturer and charged me almost double for the same repair. I strongly recommend City Blind Repair.

In preparation for listing my house for sale, I needed to repair 2 sets of mini-blinds that were pretty old.  The owner called me back promptly and set an appointment with me.  He didn't have the parts and had to order them.  He had them fixed when he said he would and returned my blinds in time to list the house right on time.

The service went great. He came out for an estimate and then came back out for the service within a few days. He even did some small repairs the day he came out for the estimate. I was very pleased with Larry's service. He was very meticulous and detailed. I had no problem scheduling the service and he was very prompt. I was happy he took such great care of me even though I only needed him for a small service.

I called Larry of City Blind Repair and the experience was great from start to finish. Not only did he respond to my phone call, he was very communicative and followed through with what he said he would do - and that was to call me back to arrange a time for me to come to his shop to get my blind repaired. When I met Larry, he was very kind, professional, and humble. I would definitely use his services and highly recommends his company.

I called Larry, he came out and took a look at some blinds I was having trouble with. The cord was in a million knots and couldn't be used. He took the blinds to his shop and returned less than a week later with them fixed and ready to hang. They're perfect. He also went upstairs and fixed a small problem I was having with some other blinds (at no charge!). The guy is a magician! I know I'll be calling him again. What a great service!

The blinds in our tall living room window were hanging unevenly at the top and we were no longer able to tilt the slats with the cords. I called City Blinds this afternoon and they were out about an hour later to take the blinds down and diagnose the problem, which turned out to be a broken part. They went back to their shop, picked up the part, came back and repaired my blinds, all for $67.50, which I thought was quite reasonable. I would definitely use them again.

I called Larry who said he could swing by to look at my blinds, but he was currently working on a project and it would take approximately a week before he could do this. He asked if this was ok and I replied yes. I called him approximately a week later and we set a date for him to come by to look at my blinds. He walked in, I explained the problem and he made a few adjustments and Viola - my blinds were working again! Of course, at this point, I felt like a blithering idiot but I really didn't know what had caused them to stop working. Larry explained how easy it is for window blinds to become restricted in their movements and showed me how to do this step myself in the future. As luck would have it, I hired yet another cleaning company to clean my townhouse because my townhouse needed a touching up before going on the rental market. The second company did a much better job and when I went to inspect their work - the same thing happened with my vertical blinds - only this time, I knew how to fix the problem. I would definitely use Larry again if I need blind repair, both in my residence and rental property. Thank you!!

My second time to use this service, and it was just as good as my first experience which is reported here. In home blind repair by a knowledgeable prompt guy at a reasonable price. Is this not perfect?

I called City Blind Repair on Monday and Larry Thomas made a visit that same day and repaired part of my Hunter Douglas up/down shade - he didn't have all the parts he needed on the first visit. He came back today (Weds). and put in the new part and adjusted the whole shade, untwisted cords, showed me how to use it, etc. It is like new! Super experienced – family used to own a hunter douglas production plant – knows how things go together… Very nice man to deal with. He repairs all kinds of shades!

Vendor was great. Showed up and inspected mechanism determined that it could be repaired, ordered parts and returned to make it good as new. I thought the charge was very reasonable. Couldn't have been any better.

I called City Blind Repair initially because I was hoping to repair, not replace two expensive wooden blinds. They had become difficult to open and shut, but were otherwise in great shape. Mr. Thomas came to my home, inspected the blinds, ordered the parts needed, and returned a week later to install the parts in my home. Took him about a half hour to fix both blinds. While he was here the first visit, I asked him to measure two bathroom windows and purchased mini blinds from him. He also assisted us by re-installing a 7 foot wide duette shade that needed more support. I cannot say enough good things about the experience of working with City Blind Repair. Mr. Thomas is friendly and professional. It was wonderful to find someone who will travel to your home to repair blinds, instead of just tell you "bring them in and we will take a look at them". We did not have to spend any time with the windows uncovered.

I called all over the place trying to find out if someone closer to my home could do this work - to no avail. The only person who said they might be able to do something would have sent them off to be fixed. That was an option until I looked at the blind and found that they were an off-brand and weren't handled by that contact. I was so relieved when I found City Blind repair. Even though I had to drive all the way into downtown Houston from League City, it was worth it! Fast, good quality, low cost; you couldn't ask for better service or a better price.
