For 25 years Your Quality Value Choice. HPS is rated as Oahu's cost effective quality leader in kitchen and bath upgrades, tub to shower conversions, licensed handyman services, and hurricane protection. Over 3000 projects. A+ Rated Better Business Bureau of Hawaii.

"HPS was a good choice for renovating our condo bathroom and kitchen. The kind loan of a bathroom sink and installation of a plastic "wall" to keep the livingroom cleaner were essential as we chose to stay living at home through the demolition and construction. Their preferred providers of cabinets, countertops, flooring, appliances and fixtures are well-suited to our budget and design sensibilities. Ed Scherdick is our overall favorite workman. He always puts in a full workday, is excellent at interpreting our needs and wants on the job site, plus is a meticulous craftsman. In any remodel of this type, issues are bound to arise. When something would come up, HPS was always available by phone, email or in person. We were able to work things out with Project Manager Lenny Wright. The workmanship of the installations (cabinets and tile) was high quality. The project took longer than estimated, yet HPS did not sacrifice quality to meet a deadline. Our bathroom and kitchen turned out beautifully and they stuck to their original estimate. We would use them again and also recommend them to friends."

Hurricane Shutters questions, answered by experts

The type of hurricane shutters you install will play a large role in the overall cost of the project. Some of the most common types of hurricane shutters include:

  • Accordion hurricane shutters: $15–$30 per square foot plus labor

  • Roll-down hurricane shutters: $25–$60 per square foot plus labor

  • Bahama shutters: $25–$35 per square foot plus labor

  • Colonial shutters: $25–$35 per square foot plus labor

  • Plywood: $2–$6 per square foot plus labor

  • Storm panels: $10–$20 per square foot plus labor

  • Fabric storm shutters: $5–$15 per square foot plus labor

If you’re installing hurricane ties, consider other storm-proofing projects. You could call a window pro to install storm windows, get in touch with a door installer to add storm doors, or just ask your hurricane tie installer what other projects they’d recommend you get done at the same time.

Hurricane shutters can add value to your home by protecting windows from flying debris during a storm and possibly reducing your home insurance premiums, likely appealing to potential home buyers. The material also plays a role in the value of the hurricane shutters. For example, plywood hurricane shutters are a more temporary solution that likely will not impact home insurance costs even if it can save your windows and doors from damage. 

Considering the advantages and disadvantages of hurricane shutters can help you decide if they’re the right choice for your home. Some pros and cons include:

Pros

  • Protection against flying debris during hurricanes and other strong storms

  • Many available styles

  • Relatively easy to remove compared to impact windows

  • Customizable to fit your home

Cons

  • Expensive cost

  • Require maintenance

  • Take up significant space

  • Many require you to go outside to operate

In many cases, hurricane shutters lower the cost of homeowners insurance. If your storm panels are code-compliant with your state or county (or insurance policy), they may lower your annual premium, even in storm-prone areas. Check with your homeowners insurance company to understand the compliance requirements. Even if your insurer doesn’t lower your premiums, hurricane shutters could save you from costly repairs after a storm.
