"John promptly replied to my search for window covering installation and because the job was fairly simple, gave me a quote over the phone. Once my window coverings had arrived John came out the very next day and worked quickly, cleanly and professionally. If I could rate higher than 5 stars, I certainly would A+ service!"
"Jeffrey is, simply put, awesome! If I said nothing more than, "Jeffrey shows up on time, ready to work, and truly puts in a full day's work" that'd be apt, but a huge understatement. Jeffrey was extremely patient while we waffled on paint colors, and always willing to offer advice when needed. Having finally chosen colors, I asked Jeffrey if he was willing to price my paint with the 40% off deal that Sherwin Williams was running against his contractor rate--his rate was far cheaper--and the quality of the paint he uses is top notch. Jeffrey's painting itself is both excellent and efficient, he moved through a 2-story foyer, kitchen, 2 large rooms, a long hallway, and some exterior shutters, in less than a week (2 coats, a lot of doors, and all of the trim). Jeffrey shows up early, leaves late (if that's what you want), packs a lunch, and always calls if there are any changes in plans. I would recommend him in a heartbeat and will be using him on other jobs in the future."
"Great experience from the initial appointment for measuring all windows to finalizing and submitting the order to installation and follow up. Professional, experienced, considerate and very pleasant!!"
The average shutter is designed to last 20 to 25 years. Proper maintenance for the type of shutters you have is essential for helping them reach their full potential.
Wood is the most classic shutter material. Common options include pine, cedar, or brasswood. MDF shutters are also a more affordable option that retains the timeless, classic look. Composite shutters, mainly vinyl and aluminum shutters, have also become more popular over the years. You may also find steel shutters, sometimes referred to as security shutters, used on the exterior. Shutters also come in various colors and finishes, adding another layer of design flexibility.
Shutters are still very common in Southern, farmhouse, and traditional-style homes, especially those in warm climates who can benefit from the increased efficiency. While modern homes and designs tend to shy away from shutters, shutters are a timeless design style that will likely be around for decades to come.
Not all windows are suitable for shutters, as certain styles can prevent them from functioning correctly. It's best to avoid installing shutters on bay windows, picture windows, dormer windows, and double-mulled windows. Shutters are better suited for large, full-size standard windows or French doors.
Additionally, consider the room's lighting needs. Since shutters effectively block light, they are an excellent choice for rooms where you want more darkness and privacy, such as a master bedroom or a main living room. For window types that are not ideal for functional shutters, some homeowners choose to install fixed (non-functional) shutters to maintain a consistent look across the home.
The most popular estate shutter brands include Hunter Douglas, Budget Blinds®, and Graber®. Hunter Douglas shutters cost $20 to $26 per square foot and include high-quality hardwood and faux wood options. Budget Blinds shutters cost $20 to $24 per square foot, depending on if you choose natural wood or another material. Depending on the material, Graber shutters range from $18 to $24 per square foot.
