"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."
"I am satisfied with the job that Home Genius has done here with my windows. The job was very neat, and the new windows look perfect. I am pleased with everything they did!"
The window replacements were done 3-4 years ago. The windows are good quality. The measurement of one window was not done properly and the installer did a fix by adding spray foam. The deck was done 2 years ago. The deck installers were fired as they made so many mistakes. The deck install was suppose to be done in a week, it took 3 weeks.
I had a service tech com out to check a deck problem in May. He is no longer working there and was laid off with almost all of the staff in Gaithersburg. I called over a week ago for a service follow-up call. The receptionist in Baltimore answered the phone, as there is no one in Gaithersburg and the phones are forwarded. I am still waiting more than a week for a follow-up service phone call to be returned by the person who schedules service calls. I have no idea how long it will take before someone can come to my home. I am concerned that if I had a major problem, I would be waiting months to get a window repaired.
"The windows were manufactured earlier than we expected and we were promptly contacted about installation. Although we were told the installation was scheduled for two days, the four man crew that arrived was able to finish in a single day! Each window was installed with the same consistency in quality and efficiency. Furthermore, the crew did an excellent job protecting our floors and furnishings in every room. When it comes to evaluating the installation crew, we couldn't be happier. Regarding price, we probably paid more than we should, but that's on us. We advise getting several other quotes first and then get Castle's quote. This will definitely help in your negotiating. The windows have definitely helped to eliminate draftiness in our home and helped to maintain a consistent temperature."
"They were timely and were able to get a considerable amount of painting done in a short amount of time. They were very clean and there were no paint splatters anywhere. They were very professional and I am continuing to use them currently."

"George's Paining, Inc. sent 3 workers and they arrived 15 minutes early. I saw them out the window but they did not come in until 7am when they were suppose to. That was nice. They immediately layed down covering for the floor and then started to work. The wall paper removal would have taken me weeks but they got it all done in half a day and then they painted the walls and stairway and ceiling. The entire job took 8 hours. Everyone was very polite and they cleaned up everything. You would never know they entered your house with paint. It was spotless. I would recommend them to anyone. "
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%.
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.
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.
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.
