Ceiling Fixing Problem for Vertical Blind

[royspecialneeds]

I rent a flat and one of the end fixings for the 4m vertical blinds track has slowly over the last year worked itself out of the plasterboard-type cieling. In all the years I've lived here I've very rarely used the blind (it's always open) and I when I have I've always been careful, so I'm pretty damned annoyed that this has happened under my tenancy.

Is there any way of a temporary fix by hitching up the end fixing with something like some sort of torsion spring/spring-loaded arms? Or some other remedy? As it's not my flat and I've little DIY experience anyway I can't really do much more, and the landlord will inevtiably blame me rather than wear and tear!

Plasterboard fixing was never going to hold that.
Id use a rare earth magnet to find joists. Magnet would pick up the screws or nails.
3mm strip of MDF stuck on with CT1 with a couple of screws through to joists.
Emulsion in with ceiling.
Fix blind brackets to MDF.

Needs taking down and re-fitting with fixings moved along , even better if a timber can be found to fix to.You can’t be blamed for poor fitting.
