How expensive are plantation shutters and what are the benefits?
A question The Shutter Studio is asked quite regularly is “How expensive are plantation shutters?”, the main thing to remember with plantation shutters is that they are an investment and they are a permanent dressing for your windows. We offer a full range of shutters with different price points that can be suited to various budgets.

Plantation Shutters come with many benefits such as added value to your home, long-term savings on your energy bills, and increased security in your home to deter burglars. The cost of our shutters all depends on many factors, the main one being the number of windows or door areas and the size of these areas in your chosen material and design features.
Our most cost-effective range is our poly shutters. These are our only faux wood shutter option, and therefore the cheapest in our range. They still hold many of the same benefits that wooden shutters do, as well as being completely waterproof, therefore making a great option for your home in various rooms.

Are Shutters worth the cost?
The simple answer is yes. The many factors that make up the cost of shutters, definitely makes them worth the cost in the future. With many blinds or curtains, after a few years, they may start fading or breaking due to the constant use and sun damage on the fabrics and therefore need replacing. A lot of homeowners also like to regularly change their interiors over the years and many change their window dressings along with them.
Shutters are a lifetime investment that rarely needs replacing or fixing, and we make sure of that by not only using a quality service with our team of experts but also long-lasting, quality products. Although our customers rarely use it, your shutters come with a 7-year guarantee made up of various elements to give you peace of mind if anything was to go wrong over the years. Our bespoke shutters are finished with a high-quality coating that prevents any sun damage or fading and our experts help you choose the right shutters for your lifestyle and windows, to prevent any damage to the hinges or framework over time.
The various benefits of shutters also make up the cost, including; extra home insulation, added security, helps reduce road noise, child-friendly, durability, easy maintenance, and many more. What we are really trying to get across is that once you own shutters, you would never have to worry about paying out again in the future for something new. White shutters are popular as they fit with every interior colour scheme, meaning you can change your home multiple times without having to have the added cost of changing your window dressings as well.
