"Jack was fantastic to work with. Originally hired to clean blinds we currently had (incredible job restoring those) and then bought 10 additional blinds after we had new windows installed. Took measurements and had custom blinds installed. Quality of work excellent and jack is just a pleasure to work with."
"Needed custom blinds installed on two bedroom windows, and the job was completed right on time and turned out perfect. We will use 3 Day Blinds for all of our future window projects. Process was easy-peasy from start to finish."
"I don't think you could do any better than Bloomin Blinds of South Charlotte. Every window in the two year old house we just bought needed new coverings. I had shutters, shades and faux wood blinds installed. Emily showed extreme patience with my multiple questions, opinions, concerns, and many emailed pics of window coverings I had seen or thought might look nice. All of the planning and decisions had to be made while I was still living in another state! No worries though, as everything turned out exactly how I had pictured it and beautiful!"
"Working with Matt was pleasant and smooth from start to finish. He set expectations, communicated effectively, was timely in responding, had everything we needed to pick type of blinds/shades including samples and colors, and did an exceptional job on the installation. Highly recommend Matt with Bumble Bee Blinds of Gastonia!"

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
