Know When to Replace or Repair Your Window Blinds

Windows are a cherished commodity in your home, which is why you probably made a wise investment in quality window treatments. And just like any other major feature in your home, window blinds can easily become dated by design trends or worn out and damaged from constant use in busy households. It's important to know when its time to repair or replace your window treatments – as sometimes you can squeeze more life out of some treatments, while other times it may be time to get rid of them.

Here are a few things to consider before deciding whether you want to replace or repair your window blinds. Our team members at Ida’s & Norma’s Draperies are well versed in window blind knowledge and can help you through the process of either replacement or repair.

Time to Replace

Design trends come and go like a drop of a hat. It can be hard to stay current, especially if you are on a budget. When it comes to window blinds, you want to really consider your options as a consumer. Here at Ida's & Norma's Draperies, we proudly carry Hunter Douglas window treatments, and we can help you decide if you need to upgrade to a more current window blind style.

If you find that your window treatments don’t match your style anymore, or are looking a little worse for wear, then it may be time for you to replace your window treatments. You may want to consider wood or faux wood blinds for a new contemporary look. Or, You may want to go for a sleek, sophisticated look with modern precious metal blinds. Either style is sure to bring elegance to your home.

Another time to replace your blinds is if your current blinds are not safe for children. Older blinds may not have automated operation, so considering upgrading to motorized blinds is a wise option.

Time to Repair

If you have an overly busy household, window blinds can take a beating, especially if you have children. With constant use, the slats can become dented, twisted, cracked, or faded.

If you have fabric blinds, the material will fray, ravel, and stain. Cords can tangle, weaken, or break, making it impossible to raise your blinds – all of these are good reasons to consider repairs for your window treatments.

If you still like the way your window treatments look in your home and are happy with their functionality, consider just getting them repaired instead of replaced entirely.
