What does a Venetian blind repair service include?

There are a number of issues that Venetian blinds are prone to - from bracket problems, cord breakage, tangling, slats, and sizing problems. Your blind repair person will assess the problem and recommend the best solution, whether replacing a part of making some adjustments. Here are some of the most common problems and solutions:

Venetian blind cord repair and replacement

Venetian blinds cord repairs can range from totally replacing the string to make a simple adjustment so it can pull smoothly again. If the string is broken, your technician will source a suitable replacement string. They’ll remove the caps and pull out the old cord, using this to measure and cut the new cord before restringing your blinds and testing them. If the cord was broken or frayed, they’ll also be sure to check for any sharp edges that might wear down the cord and ensure these are covered, sanded back, or replaced. If the blind isn’t staying up even though you’ve locked it in place, your Venetian blind repairer may need to replace the lock or reactivate your tension device. Or if your blind isn’t raising evenly or easily, it’s likely an issue with the lifting strings, so your repairer will replace these.

Slat replacement

If your slats are bent, warped, or broken, they’ll need replacing. Your blind repairer will take the plugs off the bottom rail and undo the knots before pulling the string through to the damaged slat. They’ll remote this slat and slide on the replacement piece before rethreading the cord back through each hole. Finally, they’ll re-tie the knot and replace the plugs.

Remounting or adjusting
If your Venetian blinds are hitting something or fall out of the box brackets, they might need readjusting. Your repairer will remount your brackets so they’re the right distance apart and so that your blinds have enough clearance from obstacles. Or if you want to move your blinds to another window, your technician will be able to help. They’ll unscrew the mounting brackets and re-attach them to your new window frame - either inside the recess or above - depending on your preferences.

Venetian blind trimming

Maybe you’ve bought some new Venetian blinds that you need to be installed but they’re not quite the right fit? You can get your blinds trimmed to fit your window size or your technician can install the blinds so they sit in front of the window frame, rather than inside of it.

Blind tilter replacement

If your tilt mechanism isn’t working anymore, your Venetian blind repairer will be able to fix it. If the slats don’t tilt, the gear mechanism has failed and they’ll replace it. Or if the tilt wand is stiff, they may either replace the gear mechanism or switch it to a cord for easier adjusting.

Install Venetian blind

$200

Flemington VIC, Australia

9th Jan 2025

I have a Venetian blind I need installed in my kitchen. I have already purchased the blind. The blind dimensions are 1800mm X 1500mm drop. I would like the drop to be shortened to 1100mm once fitted. There is a fixed cornice it is to be fitted behind. The cornice width 100mm wide x 1810mm long. So, it's a bit of tricky space to fit into. As per photos attached, there already a roller blind in position, which I will remove before hand.Thanks

Mitchell did a great job and I am very pleased with his work. Highly recommended.

The cord for my blinds was chewed through by my pet, and now only one side of my blinds will pull up. Looking for someone to replace the cord. Ideally you can tell me what materials I will need to get, or can supply your own (happy to arrange costs). Price is just a guess, if it turns out to be more complex than I thought just let me know.

Mohammed did a great job repairing my Venetian blinds, and went above and beyond to ensure the same problem didn't happen again.

Re-house venetian blind fittings

$200

South Melbourne VIC, Australia

13th Apr 2024

We have some venetian blinds that are attached to the metal door frame of a sliding double door. We're intending to temporarily remove these, to provide space for the installation of a sliding screen which the doors currently lack. We'd like to replace the same blinds, just slightly recessed into the room after the screen installation. Possible complications include the weight of the blinds and available supports in the roof (plaster almost certainly won't hold them by itself). Suggestions for solutions that distribute the weight effectively would be welcomed. Please note that this job will require two visits on separate days. The screen installation has been booked for the 23rd. So, the first visit, before the 23rd, to help remove the blinds / assess the mechanism and supports. Then again after the 23rd to re-install them.

I really appreciated Mason's contribution to the job, especially his advice about what outcomes were/weren't possible and what of those he could help with.
