Professional installation ensures perfect results using corrosion-resistant hardware designed specifically for beachside environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do shutters insulate a room?
Yes, shutters provide excellent insulation. Our plantation shutters increase insulation by up to R-15% in summer and R-5% in winter, helping you save money on heating and cooling bills.
Which is cheaper, blinds or shutters?
We offer affordable shutters at competitive prices, though blinds are typically the more budget-friendly option initially. However, shutters provide better long-term value through superior durability and energy savings.
Do shutters make a room too dark?
Not when properly designed. We recommend shutters specifically because they allow excellent light control. You can adjust the louvres to filter harsh coastal light while maintaining natural brightness and water views.
Do you need curtains if you have shutters?
Generally no. Shutters provide complete window coverage for privacy, light control, and insulation. However, some clients add soft furnishings for decorative purposes or additional sound dampening in bedrooms.
How much should I budget for shutters in Newcastle?
Coastal properties need specialized hardware and treatments for our harsh marine environment. I recommend getting a personalized quote, as costs vary significantly based on window sizes, materials, and coastal exposure levels.
Should I get blinds or shutters for beach properties?
Due to superior salt air resistance and insulation, I usually recommend shutters for permanent Caves Beach residents. Blinds work well for holiday homes or rental properties where initial cost matters more.
What window blinds are most popular in Newcastle's coastal suburbs?
Roller blinds with solar protection dominate in Caves Beach. UV blocking, easy maintenance, and the ability to preserve water views make them ideal for our coastal lifestyle.
Where should you not use plantation shutters?
I avoid recommending shutters for small bathroom windows or areas with extreme moisture exposure in Caves Beach homes. High-humidity coastal bathrooms can cause warping despite our marine-grade treatments.
