While options like mini blinds or roll shades may seem more economical upfront, they often come with hidden costs that may not immediately be apparent. At Shutters and More, we understand the market for window treatments for your home. Our high-quality plantation shutters made in Los Angeles provide superior value and durability for the cost.
Cost vs. Value: Why Interior Shutters Are Worth the Investment
Cost vs. Value: Why Interior Shutters Are Worth the Investment
Hidden Costs of Basic Window Coverings
Mini blinds and roll shades may attract homeowners with their lower price, but they can easily be damaged by wind or pets. Whether it’s a gust of air from an open window or a playful dog needing a view of the backyard, these flimsy coverings can bend or break, necessitating replacements. Additionally, our feline friends are notorious for pawing at or climbing up fabric shades, often leading to tears and discoloration. Our interior window shutters are crafted from durable materials that withstand everyday life, including the pets in our homes.
Functional Design for Everyday Convenience
The primary purpose of windows is to open up our homes to see the outside world. Therefore, window coverings should be a nice window frame and easy to operate to provide privacy. Our plantation shutters offer seamless functionality, allowing you to easily open and close them. Unlike blinds or shades, our shutters provide solid construction that ensures they remain an asset in your home for years.
Effortless Maintenance for Busy Lifestyles
Cleaning window coverings can be a hassle. With traditional mini-blinds, each individual slat requires hand dusting, a tedious task that can be avoided with shutters. Our shutters can be easily cleaned with a vacuum, without the risk of damaging delicate window coverings.
Increase Your Home's Value with Timeless Shutters
Moreover, when it comes time to sell your home, interior shutters not only look great but also significantly boost its value. As a window covering installation company, we are proud to offer custom wood products that provide a better return on investment (ROI). Shutters are appraised as part of the home's value and can contribute to a higher selling price due to their durability and classic appeal.
