"My project was adding additional deck area. Brian Whisler offered a fair price for my custom job. As an engineer and homeowner, my expectations are pretty high from the get-go...Brian got there just fine. Here is where the bar was raised: In all my experience with contractors, never has anyone cleaned up the work site daily, or cared enough to remove lumber from my lawn daily to prevent grass damage. I could go on, but I think my message is clear that I am thrilled with my new deck. I will most certainly call Brian first when my next project comes along."

Metal is one of the best types of hurricane shutters because they are the most durable and longest lasting option. This shutter type will likely cost more than other materials like plywood, but metal hurricane shutters are a permanent solution compared to the temporary nature of putting plywood over your windows during a hurricane. You should also consider hurricane panels and automatic roll-down shutters that are useful for emergency situations.
Hurricane shutters cost about $3,700 on average, ranging from $1,500 to 5,900, depending on the style, size, materials, and your location. Materials may include metal, plastic, fabric, or wood.
Additional cost factors to consider include the number of windows, the time of year you install, and necessary permits. Keep in mind that if you purchase and install hurricane shutters during hurricane season, namely June through November in most states, you can expect to pay more due to increased demand.
Considering the advantages and disadvantages of hurricane shutters can help you decide if they’re the right choice for your home. Some pros and cons include:
Pros
Protection against flying debris during hurricanes and other strong storms
Many available styles
Relatively easy to remove compared to impact windows
Customizable to fit your home
Cons
Expensive cost
Require maintenance
Take up significant space
Many require you to go outside to operate
Hurricane shutters can add value to your home by protecting windows from flying debris during a storm and possibly reducing your home insurance premiums, likely appealing to potential home buyers. The material also plays a role in the value of the hurricane shutters. For example, plywood hurricane shutters are a more temporary solution that likely will not impact home insurance costs even if it can save your windows and doors from damage.
When comparing impact windows vs. hurricane shutters, it’s important to consider the protection and installation details to determine the right choice for you. For constant protection against storms and flying debris, impact windows are a better option than hurricane shutters, especially if you don’t want to install shutters that will change the look of your house. However, impact windows are more costly than hurricane shutters. If you want a budget-friendly option that’s still protective against storms, hurricane shutters are a solid option.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
