Plantation Shutters in Kew
Plantation shutters for Kew homes, measured by us, fitted by us, and priced clearly before you decide.
Family-run, with two ways to order: Express for a faster UK-made shutter, or Plan & Save for a better price. Same survey, same team, same guarantee either way.
Plantation shutters for Kew homes
Kew sits in the TW9 postcode, a calm corner of leafy villas, terraces, and cottages on quiet conservation-led streets where proportion and restraint matter. The windows are often tall sashes and front-room bays, with wider garden-facing glazing on the family rooms at the back. Shutters suit all of it, and they look right in a traditional room or a contemporary one.
We measure and fit every window ourselves, so the proportions stay right and the rooms stay light. We work it out at the survey, window by window, not one stock style forced across the house.
Sash and bay window shutters in Kew
Tall sash windows usually suit tier on tier or cafe style, so you get privacy at street level without losing the light from the top. Front-room bays suit full height shutters, measured to the exact angles so they sit neatly inside the frame and keep the clean lines of the original window.
On the wider garden-facing family rooms at the rear, the brief shifts to whole rooms and broader glazing. There, full height panels or a tracked run on a top track sit across the opening, clearing aside in the day and closing flat for evening privacy.
Shutter styles and materials for Kew homes
We choose the material room by room. Bathrooms and kitchens call for waterproof Polycomposite, which is also the more practical premium choice on exposed, sunlit glazing where reinforcement, easy upkeep, and better insulation matter. Dry living rooms and bedrooms can use Hardwood for real timber character.
You can see recent installations in our gallery, and pricing is confirmed in writing before you commit. We talk it through room by room and recommend what actually works.

We price by the square metre, so the cost tracks the size of your windows. Express is £315/sqm in Polycomposite, £380/sqm in Hardwood. Plan & Save is £260/sqm either way. The survey is free, there is no deposit until you order, and we confirm the exact figure before you commit.
Express shutters are UK-made and usually fitted in about 2 to 3 weeks. Plan & Save, made overseas to the same spec, takes around 8 to 9 weeks. Hardwood carries a 5 year guarantee, Polycomposite a 10 year guarantee.
Why Choose Us
Why Surrey homeowners choose us
A good shutter job starts before anything is ordered. We check the windows, find the right solution, price the work clearly, and fit the shutters ourselves.
One team, start to finish
The same family team handles the survey, measuring, fitting, and aftercare. If something needs adjusting afterwards, you call us directly.
Two ways to order
Express is built for speed, with UK-made shutters and a shorter lead time. Plan & Save is built for value, with a longer lead time and a better price.
Made to last
The finish needs to last as well as the fit. Our shutters use high-quality materials with a durable painted finish, and Polycomposite adds waterproofing, reinforcement, and better insulation.
Honest advice, room by room
The right shutter depends on the room. We talk through privacy, light control, moisture, and insulation so the final choice is practical.
Shutter Styles
Find the right style for each room
The right style depends on the window, the room, and how much privacy or light control matters. These three styles cover the most common choices, with more specific options available for bays, bifolds, shaped windows, tracked doors, and solid panels.
Installation Process
From first visit to fitted, in four steps
A straightforward process, with no unnecessary back-and-forth. We measure your windows, consult using real samples, agree on the specification, and stay reachable afterwards for any adjustment. The same team at every step.
Consultation
We visit your home, look at the windows, and talk through the shutter styles and materials that make sense for each room. No obligation, just practical advice.
Specification & Measure
We take precise measurements and confirm the details: panel layout, frame style, louvre size, material, and finish. Everything is checked before anything is ordered.
Installation
The shutters are fitted by our own team. We check alignment, louvre movement, and panel operation, then tidy up before leaving.
Aftercare
After fitting, we remain available for adjustments, care advice, and warranty questions. If something needs attention, you speak to us directly.

Usually no. Shutters fit inside the window, so they generally sit outside the rules covering windows and doors, even on Kew’s conservation-led streets. If your home is listed we point you to the council to confirm first.
