"Luke the owner/installer is very professional and was quite flexible with working around our schedule. They did a wonderful job in installing our hurricane shutters in just two days. The crew was very polite and unobtrusive and cleaned up after themselves. The rates were quite reasonable too. Would strongly recommend this company."
"Jerry did a beautiful job on our Hurricane shutters. Quick, clean and fast install at a price we were very pleased with and having him come back too for some 2" PVC faux wood blind installations.

"The service from Chris, Paul and the rest of the team was excellent. The team arrived a little early and were quick and professional. The install took less than 2 hours. The team cleaned up after themselves as if they never were there. We got a detailed overview on the function of the shutters and how to close/secure them. I would definitely recommend them!"
"It went very well , did most of the work with only a few phone call and emails. Supplier look at many options to save me money and comply with the hurricane code. Installation was prompt , no issues, if I need shutter again for some reason I would use them again . "
"We absolutely love the shutters. They are very nice, match the house perfectly, and we are very happy with them. We would highly recommend this company as well."

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.
Plantation shutters cost an average of $2,990, making them one of the pricier shutter options. However, they offer a 75% return on your investment and are great options for boosting curb appeal and property value. Most people go for plantation shutters for their timeless, vintage look. They also provide the strongest light blocking and temperature control for your home.
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.
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.
