How Plantation Shutters Maximize Home Values in Boston
One of the questions homeowners frequently ask me as I’m walking out their door is: “Do plantation shutters increase home value?” I’m so happy they ask that because I have the chance to tell them about the numerous features of plantation shutters that make them a must-have when selling a home. I’ve seen homeowners in Boston get real returns on their window treatment investment when they resell their house, thanks to the durable, energy-efficient, and beautiful plantation shutters our experts installed. Here’s how to get your plantation shutters' return on investment (ROI).
Plantation Shutters Are Durable
More than any other shutter in the industry, Polywood shutters last over 50 years when looked after. As a matter of fact, the paint finish we bake on these shutters has UV inhibitors that protects the material from the sun’s damaging rays. This ensures that Polywood never warp or lose its color despite how high the Boston temperatures get. And it is this durability that makes plantation shutters stand out from other window treatments, adding to your home’s value.
Shutters Are A Permanent Fixture
Since plantation shutters are designed to custom fit to your windows, they become a permanent fixture. Whether it’s Polywood or Ovation, these shutters cannot be transplanted from one house to another. And as part of the property, they are assessed as a considerable addition to the house.
Polywood Shutters Are Energy Efficient
No other window treatment in Boston is as energy efficient as plantation shutters. Our Polywood shutter insulates up to 70% better than an equal wood shutter. As a matter of fact, Polywood reduces heat transfer by 45.96%. With these energy efficient shutters on your home’s windows, any home buyer in the market will be interested in your house right away. And real estate agents know that. That’s why you’ll see your home’s value increase and your house sell in no time.
Shutters Are Beautiful
When showing the house to an assessor, a real estate agent, or a home buyer, the first impression remains with them long after they’ve gone home. How elegant a window treatment is can make a difference between a house that sells in no time and one that stays on the market for a while. Whether you select the in vogue look of Polywood shutters or the exquisite richness of Ovation wood shutters, our custom designs and installations make certain that the final product matches your style and complements the elegance of your window.
And what about those specialty-shaped windows like an arch in the family room or a French door? Will the shutters take away from their inherent beauty? Thanks to our advanced computer technology and 40+ years of experience, we custom make your shutters to look great and function effortlessly.
