What happens at home
You do not need to have the shutters worked out before we arrive.
We’ll look at the room and windows, compare suitable shutter options and help you agree a specification that works for your home.
02
Look at the actual window
We check the opening, reveal, handles, proportions and anything else that affects how the shutters should be designed.
03
Compare real samples
See suitable colours, finishes and louvre sizes beside your walls, flooring and joinery instead of trying to judge them from a screen.
04
Measure and quote
Once the preferred specification is clear, we professionally measure the relevant windows and prepare a quotation based on your choices.
Before we visit
A little context is enough.
You do not need to prepare a design brief. It simply helps if you have a rough idea of what matters most in the room and can keep the windows reasonably accessible.
✓
Think about the main priority.
Privacy, light, appearance, easy access to the window — or all of them.
✓
Keep the windows reasonably accessible.
We need to inspect and measure the openings accurately.
✓
If several people are choosing, have them there if possible.
It is easier to compare samples and narrow down the preferred direction together.
Still deciding?

Before you book
Useful things to know.
The main questions customers ask about a free plantation shutter home appointment.
Is the shutter home appointment free?
Yes. The home appointment is free and gives you time to discuss the project, see suitable samples, have the relevant windows professionally measured and receive a quotation.
How long should I allow?
Allow around 60 minutes for a plantation shutter appointment. Larger or more detailed projects may take a little longer depending on the number of windows and the options you want to compare.
Do I need to know which shutter style I want?
No. We can help narrow down the most suitable style after seeing the windows, the room and what you want the shutters to do.
Will you bring colour and finish samples?
Yes. Seeing physical samples in the room is one of the main advantages of a home appointment because colours and finishes can look very different in your own daylight and surroundings.
