Roman blinds repair

Can anyone recommend someone who can repair a roman blind?

You could try Olivera Babic of Babic Interiors in Ealing W13.  I haven't actually used them but have considered doing do.  You may get a further recommendation!

There is an upcoming Repair Cafe in Brentford on 6 July. Ealing Repair Cafe meets regularly.

Thanks but this is way beyond a diy repair!

Back to the Olivera suggestion then!

I've used a company called Broken Blinds. They weren't cheap but they did the job (broken chain mechanism)https://brokenblinds.co.uk/I first used a local woman who said she could fix the chain more cheaply. The fix lasted a couple of months. The Broken Blinds repair has now lasted 4 years and hopefully will last a lot longer.

thanks very much Jane. The fabric is torn so this is more complicated than a chain. I will try them and see what they say

That company look promising.  It's great that we can now send photos online more easily.  Or take photos as we go along when dismantling something.I suppose that company might be able to help with the very long blind I have which when finally unpacked to put up (about 15 years later - don't ask) didn't have the right bits to go with it so doesn't roll up and down!  Not yet a priority though.
