What is included
Curtains steamed on their tracks and blinds cleaned slat by slat, without the cost and risk of taking them down. Curtains filter the dust that comes through every window and balcony door. We clean them where they hang, so there is no shrinkage, no rehanging and no bare windows.
- Fault traced: cord, ladder tape, clutch, spring or bracket
- Venetian and roman blinds restrung with cord of the same gauge
- Roller clutches, chains and end plugs replaced like for like
- Cord cleats or chain tensioners fitted where they are missing
How we carry out blind repair and restringing
A blind is taken down from its brackets and laid flat, since most repairs cannot be done properly at the window. On a venetian, the old lift cord is used to pull the new one through the slats and the headrail lock, and a broken ladder is replaced along its full length so the slats sit level. Roman blinds are restrung through their rings and the cord lock or sidewinder is checked. Roller blinds get a new clutch, chain or spring as needed, and the fabric is squared on the tube so it rolls straight.
Cords perish in sunlight. Polyester lift cord on a blind in direct sun goes chalky and snaps at the point where it turns through the headrail, often on several blinds in the same room within months of each other. Fine dust in a cord lock stops it gripping, and a roller tube that sags across a wide window makes the cloth track off and fray at the edge. At the site visit each blind is operated fully, the make and sizes are noted, and slats or fabric too sun damaged to justify repair are pointed out.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site visit and written quotation. A supervisor visits, measures and records every room, surface and extra. The written quotation that follows sets out the scope, with no hourly meter and nothing added on the day.
- Protect and prepare. Lifts, floors and furniture are protected and delicate finishes are logged on a surface register before any product is opened.
- Dry before wet, top before bottom. Dust is lifted with HEPA filtered vacuums from ceilings and fittings downwards. Each zone is then wet cleaned with chemistry matched to its finish.
- Detail work and floors. Tracks, switches, skirtings, handles and glass are finished by hand. Floors are machine scrubbed last so nothing is walked back in.
- Inspection and report. The supervisor signs all fourteen checks, photographs the result and sends you the report within the hour.

Blind Repair and Restringing in Dubai Silicon Oasis: what we plan for
Dubai Silicon Oasis is a free zone technology park with a full residential side. Cedre Villas and Semmer Villas are gated compounds of family villas. Around them stand mid and high rise apartment buildings such as Silicon Gates, Palace Towers, Axis Residence and Arabian Gate, and office addresses including IT Plaza and Dubai Digital Park. Dubai International Academic City next door is made up of university campuses and student housing, and Liwan and Majan are apartment districts in the same part of the city.
Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and the Dubai Al Ain Road meet beside the community, so road facing glass and sills carry a traffic film. Open desert begins just beyond Academic City, and in Liwan and Majan empty plots stand between finished blocks. Sand reaches balconies and AC filters from both.
Cedre Villas and Semmer Villas have gatehouses, and the resident registers the crew in advance. Apartment and office buildings issue a contractor permit and a service lift slot on request, and The MELLS makes that request. Campus and free zone rules are confirmed at the site visit.

Questions about blind repair and restringing in Dubai Silicon Oasis
What does blind repair and restringing include?
Broken lift cords, snapped ladders, jammed roller clutches and loose brackets are repaired on site or at the workshop, and the blind is refitted, levelled and tested. The work includes fault traced: cord, ladder tape, clutch, spring or bracket; venetian and roman blinds restrung with cord of the same gauge; roller clutches, chains and end plugs replaced like for like.
Is it worth restringing an old blind?
When the slats or fabric are sound, restringing gives a blind several more years of use and takes little time. When the slats are warped, the fabric is brittle or parts are no longer made, replacement is the more sensible route and we say so.
Can you make blind cords safer for children?
Loose looped cords and chains can be fixed back with wall cleats or tensioners so they do not hang free, and long cords can be shortened. These fittings are added during a repair visit if they are missing.
How much does blind repair and restringing cost in Dubai Silicon Oasis?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size of the property and number of rooms; condition, and how long since the last deep clean. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides blind repair and restringing in Dubai Silicon Oasis?

How long does blind repair and restringing take?
Typically 2 to 4 hours for most homes. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Do you take the curtains down?
No. They are cleaned in place, which avoids shrinkage and rehanging. Heavily soiled or lined curtains can be taken for an off site wash if needed.
Is steam safe for blackout and silk curtains?
Blackout linings are cleaned at low temperature. Silk and velvet are cleaned with low moisture methods after a test.
How often should curtains be cleaned?
Once or twice a year in Dubai, and more often near the coast or next to construction.
How do your crews get access to Dubai Silicon Oasis?
Cedre Villas and Semmer Villas have gatehouses, and the resident registers the crew in advance. Apartment and office buildings issue a contractor permit and a service lift slot on request, and The MELLS makes that request. Campus and free zone rules are confirmed at the site visit.
Do you cover Academic City, Liwan and Majan?
Yes. Student housing, campus buildings and the apartment blocks of Liwan and Majan are all covered. Tell us the building name when you call, because access rules differ from one landlord to the next.
How do I choose a company for blind repair and restringing in Dubai Silicon Oasis?
