Plantation Shutters

Shutters,

Plantation Shutters from Villa Blind and Shutter are custom made.  Villa designers start the process by guiding you through a comprehensive overview of your many choices of frames,  panel configuration and options.  After designing the perfect shutters for your home, our designers will review all the details and quote your job, offering the best possible price based on the size of your order.  if you decide to proceed a legal contract is prepared, one which meets the California State Contractors requirements, and all the details are written out clearly.  A deposit is taken and your order will be placed after your three day right of cancellation.  Most shutters require a 5 week delivery time.  After this period you will be contacted to determine your best install time and date.

We hope this information is helpful.  Your satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do, from the design to the final install.  Upon completion we help you inspect the job for any imperfections in the shutters or the install.  We will install a shutter with a flaw, on the rare occasion, take a picture for the factory to see, and reorder the shutter.

Window and Shutter Tips

Design Ideas, ,

Window and shutter tips, and how to have two contractors on the same page.  Often times I’ve had clients say I’m getting new windows put in, will that be a problem with you ordering new shutters.  The answer is YES.  We need to account for the new windows depth, to make sure our shutter louvers will clear.  Also, are the Single Hung windows  going to have the tilt -in feature for cleaning?.  If so, we need the shutters to be outside mounted or have the light blocks removed.  These are just a few of the issues to look out for.

When designing a shutter, we want to match the windows as much as possible.  For example,  the panel configuration should line up with your windows.  And window casing are sometimes installed with new windows.  Bad idea for a shutter guy not to see these before he orders his shutters

What’s the solution to all of these potential issues?  Let our window replacement partners install your new windows.  We have been working with Metropolitan Home Improvements for almost twenty years.  Our shutter designers are qualified window experts and have Home Improvement Sales Licenses to sell windows for Metropolitan. Gary, the owner has provided us with window samples and price books, and often will provide you with a  Free estimate and window product presentation, and quote the projects himself.  He final measures to assure a perfect fit.  And then we know everything about your new windows to assure a perfect shutter design and install.

 

Metropolitan High Performance Windows

Metropolitan Windows has hundreds of Five Star Reviews on Angies List, and has a Price Match Guarantee, so you can trust the quality and prices to be great.

Riverside Shutters

Design Ideas, Shutters,

Riverside Shutters are this week’s Job of the Week.  This install in Riverside shows off a beautiful French Door Shutter application with a Handle Cut-out which had to be custom sized to allow for a very high lock.  Onyx shutters allow for customization, which is also an advantage of going with wood instead of Polycore.  Wood shutters look great, have a natural look , are light weight and very strong.  These shutters can be used in a single panel up to 36 Inches.

Costa Mesa Shutters

Shutters,

Costa Mesa Shutters is our Job of the Week, and below we are presenting an educational video we like to use to show off our installs, but also to point out a few design choices.  This week we are showing you how you can use three panels to cover an eight foot wide window using T-Posts.  It looks a lot  better than a four panel.  Also look at how you can use shutters for those difficult Skylight windows.  Great ability now to control the light and heat in the room.

Norwalk Shutters Job of the Week

Design Ideas,

Norwalk Shutters job of the week from Villa Blind and Shutter.  Greetings and Happy New Year from Norwalk.  Every month we try to show off a recently installed shutter job.  This Januarry we installed the Norman Woodlore Shutter in Laura’s home in Norwalk.  The video shows her design choices, which were using a divider rail and invisible tilt.  You can see how nice it looks, and functional as well.

Norman utilizes an invisible tilt, not just a rear hidden tilt.  And the Woodlore Shutter can be upgraded to a Woodlore Plus to allow for a single panel width of 35 inches.split_control
