Older homes often come with their own unique charm — arched doorways, intricate woodwork, and, of course, non-standard windows.
While these features add character, they can also make homeowners wonder whether installing custom shutters might come with unexpected costs.
If you own an older property with non-standard windows, you might be asking yourself, “Will I face hidden charges when fitting shutters?”
At Shutters Factory, we understand these concerns, but here’s the good news: the price we quote is final, and there are no hidden costs — no matter how complex your windows may be.
The role of the surveyor: ensuring a seamless installation process
Before any shutters are manufactured, our expert surveyor visits your home to conduct a detailed survey.
This is more than just measuring windows.
The surveyor carefully assesses each window, taking into account any irregularities such as unusual shapes, uneven frames, or signs of wear in older homes.
But don’t worry — this is all part of the service.
The goal is to ensure the shutters are made to measure and that the fitter has all the information necessary to prepare for a smooth installation.
Our surveyor’s job is to spot any potential challenges upfront, so there are no surprises later.
Whether your windows are arched, circular, or any other non-standard shape, we can manufacture shutters that fit perfectly.
No hidden costs—transparent pricing from the start
Once the survey is complete, you’ll receive a detailed quote.
This quote is final, and it includes everything — including the installation.
Unlike other companies that might tack on additional fees if the installation is more difficult than expected, we don’t charge extra for fitting challenges.
Any operational costs related to installation complexities — whether it’s dealing with uneven walls or unusually shaped windows — are absorbed by Shutters Factory.
From the moment you receive your quote, you can rest assured that there will be no unexpected costs creeping up later.
