Owen, my blinds are all “duette” blinds, sort of the same as honeycomb. They 
were bought by the previous owner (so we’re going back almost thirty years). 
She bought them from Brother Sun, Sister Moon (or vice versa). Brother Sun etc. 
isn’t very good about servicing them—the cords eventually rot in the Santa Fe 
sun, and Brother Blah Blah had no advice on this—but Coronado has given me 
several names over the years of people who will come to the house and restring 
the blinds. If I had it to do over again, I’d go with Coronado (on Cerrillos) 
from the get-go.

In fact, one of their recommended guys, who I’ve used before, is coming 
tomorrow afternoon to restring three blinds. These are for big windows and are 
far too big for me to handle by taking them down to the shop.
