"All in all, I am quite pleased w/ the end result but must say that the COVID-19 pandemic put a serious crimp in their ability to deliver as originally promised. While the shutters have not withstood a hurricane yet, the materials definitely seem up to the challenge. The installation crew was awesome - very skilled, knowledgeable, professional and respectful of both me and my property. The price was also great as they outbid 5 other companies. If communication had been better I would have given them 5 stars. Would I hire them again? Heck ya."
Exceptional Business. Quality work ? Yes. Quality Service ? Yes. Quality workers - Yes.
I agree with all the other positive comments and definitely recommend them without hesitation. They care about the quality of their work - they have a 10 year warranty on their workmanship.
Came out to look at my roof and were very informative. They spent time pointing out my neighbors house, the shortcuts their roofer had made and why that roof may not last over time / through a hurricane.
They replaced my roof, replaced a lot of the damaged wood under the old shingles. Took down my unused oil burner chimney to below the roof line and roofed over it. Took pictures of the work in progress and gave me them when finished. Everything happened on time, and cleaned up afterwards.
I also had them replace my windows. That also went smoothly. All thier workers were great, very polite and answered any questions I had. When it was discovered that the window manufacturer had sent one window that was the wrong style, they put in a temporary window. Came back 2 weeks later and installed the correct one with out any issue.
They will be my first point of contact for future work on the house.
So happy I found someone who I can trust to do a job RIGHT.

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.
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.
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%.
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.
