Plantation Shutters in Sunbury-on-Thames

Sunbury splits into Lower Sunbury by the river and Sunbury Common around the cross, and the housing follows that line. We fit shutters across the older riverside houses along Thames Street and Lower Hampton Road, the bay-fronted terraces around Green Street and Avenue Road, the 1930s and post-war semis through Sunbury Common, and the newer family homes off Vicarage Road and towards Kempton Park. Shutters look right in a traditional front room or a contemporary rear extension, so they suit the whole mix.

We match the shutter to each window rather than forcing one style on the house. A riverside sash on Thames Street wants different proportions from a 1930s semi off Staines Road East, which is different again from a newer detached home near Kempton Park. We work that out at the survey, window by window.

The older riverside houses along Thames Street and Lower Hampton Road usually have tall sash windows. Tier on tier or cafe style suits them best: privacy from the pavement and towpath without losing the river light above. We keep the louvre proportions in step with the original glazing so the shutters read as part of the house, and Hardwood gives dry front rooms real timber character.

Bay-fronted terraces around Green Street and Avenue Road, and the semis through Sunbury Common, are the other common pattern. Full-height shutters measured to the exact bay angles are the usual answer here, because the older bays rarely sit on a true 90 degrees. We measure each one precisely at the survey.

Bathrooms, kitchens and en-suites are a priority across every Sunbury property type, from the riverside houses to the newer homes towards Kempton Park. Polycomposite is the practical choice in these rooms: it handles humidity cleanly, resists warping, and carries a 10 year guarantee.

Wider rear-extension glazing in the updated family houses off Vicarage Road and Manor Lane suits full-height or tracked layouts that keep the light and the view while giving you easy control of privacy and sun. We talk it through room by room and recommend the material that actually works for each opening.

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, made in the UK, are usually fitted about 2 to 3 weeks after your survey. Plan & Save, made overseas to the same spec, takes around 8 to 9 weeks. Hardwood carries a 5 year guarantee and Polycomposite a 10 year guarantee.
