How to clean your window blinds

While we understand that there are much better things to do than housekeeping, your blinds will benefit from a regular clean. Children, pets or just general wear and tear can all leave their toll. 

To keep your roller or Venetian blinds ship-shape and looking beautiful for years to come, follow these simple tips.

Tips for cleaning your roller blinds

• To maintain your roller blinds, lightly dust the top and body of your blind with a feather duster or soft cloth regularly. 
• If any marks do appear on the fabric of the blind, use a damp cloth to gently remove.  
• For stubborn marks, use a very mild detergent (such as Lux flakes or Velvet soap) and rub gently on the stain to remove.

Tips for cleaning your Venetian blinds

• To maintain your Venetian blinds, lightly dust the slats with a feather duster or soft cloth regularly.
• Once or twice a year, clean with a Venetian blind cleaner (above). 
• If the blind is in a wet or moist area, such as the bathroom or kitchen, you may also need to use a damp cloth to remove any stains. Carefully wipe each slat being careful not to bend.
