"I decided to replace my old windows with energy efficient windows. I wanted an attractive window, also. After being swindled by another company, I was looking for a reputable, long standing, solid business. And I found it! I love my new windows!!"
"Ted is awesome! He is so trustworthy and easy to work with. He came out to estimate taking out a gross, rotting bow window and helped us come up with a suitable replacement (we didn't want another bow or bay). To get what I wanted, we had to deviate from the original dimensions, but that was no problem for Ted. He was about to trim out the window so that you would never know we changed the original size! We had to special order what we wanted and after it was delayed, Ted was incredibly flexible with his time to make sure our window went in so we could our house listed. He did a fantastic job and we plan to use him for all of our handyman needs. We will gladly recommend him to everyone we know!"
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.
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.
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.
