"Cody and company worked for us in the fall of 2019 getting the exterior of our new (but very old) house in shape before winter. Cody was extremely thorough in preparing the house for painting, and in repairing both, some damaged siding we were aware of, and other areas of rot that were more extensive then we knew. There was a lot to finish as the colder weather set in, but it was clear that Cody wanted to do things the right way without cutting corners. We selected a bolder variation on the previous color scheme, and the finished project looks fantastic. Cody was respectful, easy to communicate with, and fair and transparent in his pricing. We plan to work with him again on other projects in our home, including interior painting, and we recommend him and his crew without reservation."

"I contacted Cully because of his ratings on Angie's List as it is very hard to find a reliable contractor in this small town where we own apartments. Cully immediately got back to me - we discussed what work needed to be done and he had a very professional proposal emailed to me within 24 hours. The price was right on target for work performed and we are very satisfied with his work. Initially, we agreed for him to sheet-rock 2 ceilings but found that he was so knowledgable and handy so we also had him put up paneling. We did not have him paint the interior as we did that ourselves (he did paint the ceilings when completed). Come spring time, I will hire him again to do some exterior painting. He is my first "go-to" now when we need repairs, painting, or sheet-rocking done. He cleaned up each time he finished working, making it look better than it had before he started. Cully was always on time and in communication with me either by phone or email so I knew where the project stood at all times. He even suggested an electrician and was there to let him in and explain what we wanted done when we had to upgrade our smoke detectors. I would highly recommend Cully, he went above and beyond what was asked of him. Elicia Dowd"
"Alan is a trustworthy guy who wants to make his customers happy. For big jobs, he works with a friend, and both of them together can do essentially anything (including basic electrical and basic plumbing). We first hired him to remodel our bathroom. It included tearing a wall down and expanding it so a bath could fit in the room. They also had to tear down a 150 year old brick chimney in the process. They installed a new vanity, built a shelving unit into the wall and put in the lighting. The finished product was good. The room was not square, but the house is built in 1836, so I don't know if anyone could have done that. Next, we had him install a railing on our stairs. This came out great no complaints. He then installed a bedroom with laminate flooring and also the stair landing. This job was not as clean, some of the floor trim was not edged and the lines of the wood running from the bedroom to the stair landing were not flush. These negatives though were a result of a positive - that is, for this job, he worked from dusk until sun up because he had other jobs/commitments later in the week. He is an extremely hard worker. For this job we traded the finishing touches for timely completion - and overall the finished product was still good. The last major job was the sheetrocking in between our beams downstairs. In most jobs, there was a little clean up I had to do - pieces of wood from the carpentry of the bathroom left in a crawlspace, horsehair plaster or sheetrock left crumbled on the floor. They forgot to include thresholds in the bathroom and bedroom jobs as well. HOWEVER, whenever I spoke with Alan about any of this, anything I had not already done, he came over promptly and fixed/completed/cleaned it. He was reachable and kind and we trusted him. He said a few times that he wanted to make sure we were happy. We called him on two or three separate occasions because he is a hard worker, he is trustworthy and his price is reasonable. We would call him again for sure.
Window Shutter Repair questions, answered by experts
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 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.
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.
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.
