Restringing and lift system repair for pleated, cellular, Roman and wood blinds, replacing worn cords, locks and spring mechanisms so treatments lift evenly and hold their position.
A shade that hangs crooked or will not stay up usually has a worn cord or lift. Restringing can bring it back. Homeowners in Nashville call us when a favorite shade sags on one side or drops by itself.
We open the headrail, inspect the cords, locks and pulleys and identify where the system has failed. We replace cords with the right type and length, re-thread them through slats or fabric and reset the tension so the shade lifts evenly. For spring-assisted and cordless systems, we explain what can be replaced and what may need a new shade. Where safety is a concern, we suggest converting to cordless or motorized options. Lift systems fail slowly, and most owners put up with a lopsided shade for a long time. A restringing visit is often short, and the difference is immediate. We explain what we found inside the headrail and what we changed, so you understand the repair. Then we show you how to avoid stressing the lift in daily use.
The headrail is opened and the cords, locks and pulleys are examined to find the failure.
New cords of the right type and length are threaded through the treatment and tied correctly.
Lifts are adjusted so the treatment raises evenly and holds position.
If cords are a safety concern, we show conversion options such as cordless or motorized lifts.
