When it comes to affordable window coverings, the best value isn’t always found in the cheapest option. Of course, it’s important that you opt for something you can afford, but this shouldn’t be at the expense of durability, style, or longevity. If you compromise today, you might end up paying tomorrow. To prevent just this, we decided to write a quick piece to steer you in the right direction.
Long-lasting Window Coverings Save You Money
When considering affordability, one should also address longevity as a key indicator of value. After all, value is about more than just cost. Are you really getting great value out of your window coverings if you’re having to replace them every year or two? Well, luckily, not only are made-to-measure shutters one of the most affordable window coverings, but they will also last for years too. Don’t believe us? Our 3-year warranty and dedicated aftercare team should be enough to convince you.

Add Value to Your Home
It is often one of the aspects of shutters that is most overlooked, but how they appear from the outside is almost as big a selling point as how they appear from the inside. By giving your home’s exterior a more stylish and opulent aesthetic, shutters will increase your property’s kerb appeal. This in turn can help increase the value of your home if, and when, the time to sell arrives. Due to their semi-permanent nature, estate agents will often use plantation shutters as a key selling point. The same cannot be said for curtains and blinds.
Cut Down on Your Bills
When weighing up cheap window covering ideas, another thing to consider is efficiency. You should ensure that whatever you adorn your windows with can manage drafts and insulate effectively, too. While blinds and curtains do insulate to an extent, they are not as effective as shutters, nor can they exclude drafts. Being fit directly onto your window frame means that shutters don’t allow air to escape, helping you keep the heat in…and your energy bills down.
Save Money With DIY Shutters
There are plenty of plantation shutter companies out there. Most of them are measure and install services, which means your plantation shutters cost quite a bit.
