"I highly recommend ELA Interior Design for window treatments, especially cornices. I had a very positive and pleasant experience working with Max. He was very patient and never tried to pressure me into making a decision. I looked at many fabric samples and I’m delighted with the results for the family room ( one triple and 2 single windows); dining room ( 2 single windows); bedroom (huge bay window). Max’s attention to detail is impressive…….the match and design of the labor on each cornice is perfect. They pull together the colors in the furniture, carpet and walls. For me cornices was the best choice and Max did an excellent job! Everything looks very professional like I. A decorators magazine."

"Everything went very well!  Bill fixed the shower door by raising it up and screwing it in more securely because it had dropped down.  He replaced the old weatherstripping on the mudroom door with new and better weatherstripping.  He also noticed that the door latch was not working correctly, so he fixed that.  The door works so much better now than it has for a very long time.  We added on to his work, since he was doing such a great job, the replacement of the exterior spot lights with the security motion detector lights.  Bill brought out his tall ladder and did a great job with the replacement.  He asked us about the settings we wanted and made sure that it was working the way we wanted it to.  We will certainly  hire Bill again!

Window Shutters questions, answered by experts

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%.

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.

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. 

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.
