Blinds often fall victim to household pet attacks, discoloration from the sun or cigarette smoke, and simple wear and tear from impatient folks attempting to adjust them. For these unfortunate events, many people choose to buy new blinds. For those that can’t afford new blinds, it’s time to consider repairing the damage that’s already been done.

Repairs will depend on what kind of damage has befallen the blinds. For discolorations, cleaning agents are the call of the day. For blinds altered by the many attacks of happy pets, it might be necessary to scrap the blinds altogether. Disturbed blinds can usually be put back into place with a moment of patience and care.

To do:

1.Inspect your blinds: Determine what kind of damage you’re up against. Find out exactly where the damage is and what it might take to fix it.

2.If the blinds have been discolored, it’s time to pick a cleaning agent that will whiten them or, if not white, restore them to their original color.

3.Once the method of repair has been selected, it’s time to repair. This often involves a good soak in a cleaning agent that will return your blinds to their usual beauty.

4.Know when to give up: If repair isn’t possible, it’s time to give up. Buying a new pair of blinds the first chance you get will be on your to-do list. Blinds are inexpensive to most, but if you need to wait a bit longer, try replacing the blinds with standard curtains or other instrument, such as a board or blanket.

If you follow these simple instructions, you’ll be well on your way to recovering the former glory of your once-new blinds. If you’re unable to do that and must give up, you’ll still have a new set of blinds to look forward to that will have your privacy protected the way it should be, and add a touch of class to your living quarters.

Blind repair isn’t complicated, but it isn’t completely simple. With a little inventiveness and effort, repairing blinds can be done and can help you feel like a total success at the end of your day.
