Common Blind Service Questions

If you want to avoid taking the blinds down, cleaning them weekly with a microfiber duster or vacuum can help take care of dust and dirt before they turn into stains. Otherwise, hold the blinds to keep them stable and go over them with a damp microfiber cloth. If you need to use diluted vinegar or a mild detergent, dip your cloth, wipe them down, then follow up with a clean, damp microfiber cloth.

Window blinds have adjustable slats that allow you to control light levels and privacy by twisting a wand. Blinds can either be vertical or horizontal. A shade is a window treatment that consists of a single piece of material that allows you to control privacy and light by moving the entire unit up or down. Both blinds and shades may have cords that allow you to "open" and "close" them. However, manual designs are also common because cords pose safety risks in households with children and pets.

Repairs typically take 1-2 hours, depending on the issue and blind type.

It’s usually worth it to repair minor damage to your vertical blinds as long as they aren’t at the end of their lifespan. Vertical blinds cost $65 to $350 per window treatment—but it could cost more depending on the size, quality, and added features. The average repair costs around $125, but you may be able to DIY a fix for cheaper.

Costs depend on blind type, cleaning method, labor, and additional stain treatments.
