How To Find The Most Sturdy Shutter In Clearwater
One of our locations in Texas was recently reached by a previous customer. The client had their home destroyed by a twister earlier this year, but the house’s Sunburst Polywood® plantation shutters made it through the ordeal.
Hopefully, your shutters won’t need to survive a natural disaster. But there are a few points to make sure of when choosing shutters in Clearwater that are durable and will look beautiful for a lifetime.
*Disclaimer: Sunburst Shutters doesn’t guarantee that their our products will withstand a tornado or other natural disasters, but this is just one example of the durability of our Polywood shutters. Refer to our lifetime warranty.
Solid Material
The first thing to be on the lookout for when choosing a resilient window treatment is exactly what material it’s constructed from. For wood shutters, look for ones made from wood that’s both solid and lightweight. Our Ovation® shutters are built from furniture grade basswood and teak, which both have these qualities.
For faux wood shutters, focus on shutters constructed from a solid polymer like our Polywood® shutters. Polywood shutters are sturdier than composite shutters, which tend to show damage more easily due to their pressed-board core structure. The material Polywood shutters are composed of is also resistant to fire, moisture, and termites.
Top-Notch Construction
How a shutter is constructed has a key role in its sturdiness over time. The louvers of Polywood shutters are kept tight by tension control pins. They also have stainless steel staples covered in epoxy which are incredibly hard to take out. Polywood’s core is solid, and its joints are fortified and glued to give unrivaled strength. Sunburst’s Ovation shutters are the only five star wood shutter in the world and utilize two different styles of joints: dowel joints and mortise and tenon joints, which allows for extra stability. We are the only place which offers shutters put together to survive the most extreme conditions.
Sunburst Shutters also takes special care in the measuring, construction, and installation processes to make sure you get picture-perfect custom shutters that match your windows perfectly.
Color That Keeps
It’s normal to want shutters that will look brand-new long after installation. Other composite shutters tend to lose their color over the years. Our Polywood shutters are encased with a unique paint that contains UV-inhibitors which keeps your shutters looking brand-new. In addition, a simple once over with a cloth is all that’s necessary to keep your plantation shutters dust-free.
Warranty
When buying shutters or other window coverings, your warranty is an additional major factor. When choosing a top of the line shutter, you would benefit from a warranty to protect your investment. Our Polywood shutters come with a lifetime warranty that protect you from any defects in materials, workmanship, paint finish, or installation. Our Ovation shutters come with a warranty against any defects.
