"Another great experience and beautiful window coverings! My husband and I were extremely pleased with the window coverings in our study and great room supplied earlier in the year by Doug of Suburban Window Fashions. So we decided to also replace old blinds in the kitchen eating area with beautiful new white Normans louvered shutters. We also chose a Hunter Douglas Duette Power honeycomb top-down/bottom-up design shade in gray for the master bedroom window that has both a remote and wall power unit. The prices were great and we love the look and quality. Plus Doug is a pleasure to work with!"

"SunControl was great to work with! Very respectful of me and my house and cleaned up when they were done. I had them do both window tinting and blinds. Although it wasn't a large job, I was treated as though it was. I would definitely use them again."

"I am writing a follow up review, because I was really pleased with the plantation shutter that John customized for my oversized kitchen window, He made sure that I was completely satisfied with the shutters and made sure the design was exactly what I wanted. I know that I would not have been able to get this design from another place. It is so unique"

"I had two vertical faux wood blinds that were in bad shape and I was searching for their replacements. The ladders on both had broken making them non functional and two slats had broken. I priced out replacements with installation that would be an estimate of $500.00 for the identical blinds. I had success with a previous home advisor experience so I decided to search for someone who could offer repairmen. Garrett Swanson contacted immediately. I sent him pictures of the blinds and he quoted me $30.00 per blind and a $40.00 trip charge and would repair at my home without dismantling them. He was very professional, did excellent work and saved me $400.00. I would highly recommend him."

"Did not recieve the estimate after the consultant arrived. When I called back received the estimate very quickly. However the estimate was over 20K for 15 plantation shutter windows which is about double any of the other estimates."

"Had a good experience. Gary came over and took care of what we needed to fix. I felt like he was meticulous in the details and making sure the job was done right, and he answered my questions patiently. Price was more than fair given the time he spent completing the work. The "B" grade for responsiveness was more a communication issue with the office. When scheduling the appointment, I was given a window of 8-9am. I had requested that someone comes after 8:30 so I can get my kids on the school bus. I was assured that would not be a problem but I don't think that message was passed on to Gary, who came at 8:05 when I was walking out with my kids. Also it seemed like I should have gotten an email confirming details prior to the appointment day, which I didn't receive. Besides these glitches in communication, everything worked out smoothly and I would consider using Handyman Pros again."

Window Shutters questions, answered by experts

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.

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 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.

Estate shutters offer more energy efficiency, privacy, and light control than blinds. They provide better insulation against heat and cold, lowering your energy bills. They’re also sturdy, durable, and last much longer than blinds (up to 50 years or longer). They’re also low-maintenance and can add curb appeal to your home. The return on investment (ROI) for estate shutters is around 75%.

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.
