So, you’ve decided to go with shutters for your newest window dressings. Excellent choice. But now it’s time to think about your shutter installation. The good news is that you have several options to choose from, each with its own pros and cons. In this quick guide, we’ll explore the three main options: hiring a shutter company for installation, hiring a handyman, or going down the DIY route. You can probably guess which one gets our vote.
DIY Shutters: It’s Easier that you Think
You might be saying to yourself: “If installing shutters was easy, why doesn’t everybody do it?” Fair question. Many people are put off doing their own shutter installation because they assume it’ll be too difficult. Not true. Our shutters have been designed to make things simple. We also have easy-to-follow measuring and fitting guides that take you through the process step-by-step. And if you ever need a helping hand, our expert team are always here. Simply send an email to [email protected] with your queries and we’ll be in touch.
Benefits of Fitting Shutters Yourself
When you carry out your own shutter installation, you’ll save quite a few quid. In fact, you could save over 40% when compared to other measure and installation companies. And when you go with DIY Shutters, you don’t have to think about booking in a measure and fitting appointment. You can do the job whenever you like, working it around your schedule. Plus, you can’t beat the feeling of satisfaction that comes with doing something yourself. And with our simple measuring and fitting guides, it’s sure to be a job well done.
Hire a Handyman
If you want a professional touch, hiring a handyman is a viable option. While it will impact your budget more than installing your own shutters, it will give you peace of mind if you’re not a dab hand at DIY. It can also be useful for those who don’t have access to tools or have mobility issues. However, if your issue is confidence, fear not. Our shutters are designed to be easy to install. So much so, that even the most DIY-shy person will be able to install theirs. Plus, our easy-to-follow guides will make your shutter installation even easier.
