Where’s the job?

Scope of Works

• Inspect the Roman blind headrail, tapes, cords and fabric to identify faults

• tighten or replace wall brackets and headrail fixings

• replace or re‑thread broken cords, tapes and weights and re‑balance folds

• repair or replace headrail components, cord locks or pulleys where possible

• resew or replace lining and bottom weights when damaged or distorted

• test operation, fit safety devices (cord tidy/breakaway) and advise if full replacement is recommended

Typical Cost

Time on Site

Most single Roman blind repairs take 30 minutes–2 hours on site depending on fault and access; full headrail replacement or re‑lining may take 1–3 hours and multiple blinds increase time

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

• Do you have experience repairing Roman blinds and the specific headrail type I have?

• Can you show photos of similar repairs and confirm any warranty on parts or labour?

• Will you need to remove the blind for workshop work or can most fixes be done in situ?

• What parts might be required and how long will ordering add to the job?

• Do you carry public liability insurance and will you need permission to work at height at my property?

• How do you charge for travel, call‑out and additional labour if more faults are found?

How to Avoid Surprises

• clear the area under the blind and remove fragile items

• check and tell the tradie about high windows or awkward access and whether you can provide a ladder or parking nearby

• have the blind model or photos ready and note any previous repairs

• advise the tradie of pets, children and where power sockets or electrics are near the blind

• agree who supplies ladders or scaffold and confirm insurance for working at height
