"I had Shutter Solutions of Houston install shutters throughout my house in 2021 and the did an amazing job. Today they came to make a minor repair on one of the shutters. Everything about the service was excellent and fast. They didn’t even charge for the repair. Would highly recommend them!"
I have been in the construction business for the last four years full time. I can handle anything from new construction projects, remodeling, or just some honey do projects. If you need a new ceiling fan or a new deck or maybe just your lawn mowed, I can handle it.

"Daniel and Russ of C&D Custom Building & Repair replaced a wooden fence post (snapped off at ground) by wind. Reset with new cement and reinstalled two original sections. No time wasted, went right to work. Gave good price and I liked his honesty over phone about price per repair, and he kept his word. I will use him again."
"I would most certainly do business with this company again. They gave a detailed bid that was easy to understand. The owner is quite courteous and worked very hard to get the job done before a big rain was supposed to come through. The quality and speed of @Ease!'s work is outstanding and the area around my house was spotless when the job was done. Their attention to detail is a welcome change from the typical shoddy work that some contractors display. The owner's communication with me was outstanding and I am a very Happy Camper with @Ease! Please consider using them for your next project."
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.
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.
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.
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%.
