Look for clarity on return policies. Vague quotes hide future charges. Detailed line items allow fair comparison between different local providers easily.
Sticking cords indicate worn or damaged lift mechanisms. Sliding runners need regular cleaning to move smoothly. Dust accumulation inside headrails causes noise. Tighten loose brackets immediately to prevent pulling. If the blind tilts unevenly, check the mounting screws. Regular maintenance extends product life and prevents sudden breakdowns mid-use.
Ask if the pro brings a level and drilling kit. Check for bracket alignment. Uneven fittings cause operational issues later. Verify they use appropriate wall anchors for your specific wall type. Drywall requires different screws than concrete. Poor installation leads to sagging or jammed mechanisms. Inspect the finished bracket work carefully yourself.
Measure the width and height of the window recess precisely. Use a steel tape measure, not a flexible one. Check all 4 sides because walls are rarely square. Note the distance from the sill to the floor. Incorrect measurements lead to returned goods and extra charges. Always record the channel width for custom blinds.
Ask if the quote includes removing old blinds and cleaning up dust. Drywall sanding creates fine particles that settle everywhere. Insist on using drop cloths to protect nearby furniture. Confirm the contractor vacuums the work area before leaving. Failure to clean properly leads to dust settling on electronics and floors, requiring extra effort from you.
Decide if you need a separate liner behind the main curtain. Liners add warmth and privacy without blocking all light. This adds cost and complexity. Measure both widths separately to allow for proper gathering. Confirm whether the quote includes labor for installing two layers of fabric on a single hook system or requires dual rails.
For driven blinds, confirm the motor battery type and expected lifespan. Ask if the system includes a manual crank for power outages. Check the brand of the central controller and app compatibility with your phone. Ensure the technician provides a warranty covering both the motor unit and the remote control device separately.
Minor cord fraying can be repaired with splicing. Broken bend mechanisms usually need replacement. Torn fabric requires professional re-stitching or replacement. Check warranty terms for in-store repairs. Keep original packaging labels for identification. Small fixes cost less than full replacement. Prompt attention prevents larger functional failures later in time.
Dust slats every 2 weeks with a duster. Vacuum sheer curtains gently on low settings. Use mild soap for fabric cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals that strip finishes. Test cleaners on a hidden area first. Misguided wiping fades colors permanently. Proper care maintains texture and color vibrancy over several years of use.
Base quotes often exclude hardware like tilt cords or wand mechanisms. Motorized options add significant expense. Header brackets and side channels cost extra. Ask if removal of old treatments is included. Disposal fees sometimes apply for bulky items. Request an itemized quote to reveal all additional line items clearly before payment.
