Default Two Questions in One - Blinds & Plumbing

1) I'm looking to have some adjustments and minor repairs done to our vertical blinds throughout the house. Any recommendations for whom to go to for this work?

2) Similar situation with plumbing. Just a few faucet heads and accessories need some work. One faucet may need replaced. Recommendations for good plumber please.

Thanks in advance.

My suggestion would be, don’t hire a blind plumber.

Or, a blind blind contractor.

The companies that install verticals, such as 24 Hour Blinds, have a lifetime warranty and will adjust/repair free of charge. See if there’s a label somewhere on the blinds.

Dunstan and sons. Much more reasonably priced than most of the big name plumbers in the area.

For the blinds, I would try to determine who installed them.

I can take care of your faucet issues for much less $$$ than a plumber.

When I arrived at my house after being up in N.H. for the summer, I turned the water on and let it run out of every faucet in the house for 10 minutes. I then went to unpack. When I walked back into the kitchen I found water everywhere. I shut the valves under the sink After investigation I found a pin hole leak that was in the cold water hose that comes with the faucet. I called Mike Scott Plumbing and they replaced the faucet in less than 30 minutes. They charge a fee of $65 just to come to house but they know what they are doing and make repairs in a timely manner. My total bill was $242 which included the new faucet. I thought that was fair. I would recommend them.
