Shutter guides, pricing, and inspiration

Browse practical advice for choosing shutters that suit UK homes.

Our blog covers the questions homeowners ask most: pricing, materials, waterproof options for bathrooms, and how to choose the right style for bays, sash windows, and wide doors.

You will find practical buying guides as well as behind-the-scenes posts on how shutters are measured, manufactured, and fitted. We focus on the decisions that make the biggest difference to day-to-day comfort: privacy, glare control, ventilation, and how to keep rooms feeling bright without being overlooked.

If you are in the early stages, start with a quick shortlist: pick the room you are upgrading, choose the most practical material for that environment, then decide on a style layout that suits your window type. Real installation photos can help you choose a finish that works with your paint and flooring.

If you are planning a project, start with product and style comparisons, then book a free home survey to see samples and get a made-to-measure quote with installation included.

Have a question we haven’t answered yet? Book a free survey and we will tailor advice to your windows and your home’s layout.

For the most accurate answer on pricing and feasibility, a free home survey is the best next step. We measure, discuss how you want the shutters to work, and recommend the right material for each room. You then receive a clear quote covering manufacture and installation.

  • Material comparisons: composite, engineered wood, and aluminium.
  • Style advice: full height, café, tier-on-tier, tracked, and shaped designs.
  • Room-specific tips for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and living rooms.
  • Advice on louvre sizes, frames, and privacy options like split tilt.
  • Care tips to keep shutters looking new.
