Contractor installed curtain rods unevenly

Anonymous
Two rods on one wall, about a foot apart, once is about 1/2in to 3/4in lower than the other. I didn't notice it when they were here earlier today before they left but now I see it (and marked the difference with tape so it isn't my imagination). The room is small enough that one can see the difference. What would you do?

Give it a week and see if you still notice. DH hung ours unevenly and I can't even tell.

Not a good advice.
People can tell when things don’t look right.

Is it visually off or technically off? For shits and giggles, take a level to the rod and see if it’s really off. Either way, do what makes you happy and if you have to call them back out so be it.

Get on a ladder and measure both curtain rod brackets for each window. Note how many inches from the ceiling and how far away from the window trim on the sides. Lastly, are they level? Bracket spacing should be the same for each rod.

Are the rids 'level' tbough? They might look off because your ceiling isn't.

Waiting a week is bad advice? Get that huge stick out of your ass, lady!

I bet OP is wrong. The handyman probably measured and everything is accurate, but OP's house isn't level.

Get the rods figured out BEFORE you adjust the actual curtains.

Could be. A simple laser level will answer the question if you have one or can borrow one from a neighbor/friend.
