Real Life Stories

Wimbledon Shutters a Perfect Match

Added: May 12, 2008

When Rob and Paul moved into their new flat in Wimbledon they knew right away that they wanted shutters for their bedroom window. When they looked at the flat the bay window was one of the features of the flat they loved. The previous owners had wooden blinds on the window but the guys felt that they were didn’t do the windows justice.

Changing the wooden blinds for painted wooden plantation shutters, they lightened the room and got exactly the look they were after. Tier on Tier shutters gave them the flexibility they wanted as they could leave the lower section of the plantation shutters closed over and open the top tier of shutters to allow maximum light into the room.

Rob comments “The Wooden Blinds that were on the bay window just didn’t do the window any justice. Being on a pretty busy road in Wimbledon, a lot of people walk past, therefore having the wood blind down all the time just made the room feel dark. The wood blinds were finished in a dark stain and this didn’t help either!

We’d seen plantation shutters in magazines and knew they were exactly what we wanted. The tier on tier shutters design was exactly what we wanted as the shutters on the top could be opened up fully in the daytime and we’d pretty much leave the bottom shutters closed but tilt the slats. We get privacy and light.

Rob found a place in Wimbledon who install shutters for you but when they came to quote, the price was around £1500. I’m always online buying things and that’s where I found The California Shutter Company. To be honest I hadn’t heard of your shutter company before but I’m certainly glad I have now!

I knew the trade off was that the shutters would need to installed by us. I had not problem with this as the shutters were just under £900 which was fantastic! Much cheaper than we’d have had to pay otherwise.

My advice to prospective California Company customers looking to buy plantation shutters is to take some time to read the shutters guide on the website. It’s really helpful and clear and made perfect sense. I knew exactly how to measure my windows for my shutters.

They were easy to fit and look great. Hope you like the photos I sent over. I’m very pleased with my shutters and the service received. Would recommend you.”

The California Company Comment on your Project:

Tier on Tier Shutters are a great solution to windows where you have people walking past close to your window. You can leave the lower tier of shutters in place and fold the top tier back. We’re really pleased that you guys are happy with them and thanks for sending in the shutter photos.
