🛠️ Why You Might Want to Repair a Blind

1. Saves Money

  • Repairing costs way less than buying a brand-new blind or full set.
  • Simple fixes (like a broken cord, tilt mechanism, or slat) are often under $20.

2. Extends Lifespan

  • Most blinds are designed to last 5–10 years (or more), and repairs can add years to that.
  • Great if the rest of the blind is still in good shape.

3. Keeps Everything Matching

  • If you only have one damaged blind, replacing it might mess with the look and color match of your room.
  • Repairing keeps your window treatments looking consistent.

4. Reduces Waste

  • It’s the eco-friendly move — keeps your blinds out of the landfill.
  • Especially important for high-quality materials like real wood or composite.

5. Faster & Easier

  • Many repairs can be done DIY with kits or parts (clips, cords, tilt wands).
  • No waiting for custom replacements or scheduling installations.

🔧 Common Blind Repairs

  • Broken or tangled lift cords
  • Non-tilting slats
  • Snapped valance clips or brackets
  • Warped or bent slats (can sometimes be swapped or straightened)
