How Plantation Shutters Add To Home Values in Cincinnati
One of the questions homeowners commonly ask me as I’m leaving a consultation is: “Do plantation shutters increase home value?” I get so excited when they ask that because this allows me 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 Cincinnati get real returns on their window treatment investment when they resell their house, thanks to the durable, energy-efficient, and beautiful plantation shutters our professionals 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 taken care of. In fact, the paint finish we bake on these shutters has UV inhibitors that protects the material from sun damage. This makes sure that Polywood won’t warp or lose its color despite how high the Cincinnati temperatures get. And it is this durability that makes plantation shutters a leader among other window treatments, adding to your home’s value.
Shutters Are A Permanent Fixture
Since plantation shutters are installed 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 substantial addition to the house.
Plantation Shutters Are Energy Efficient
No other window treatment in Cincinnati is as energy efficient as plantation shutters. Our Polywood shutter insulates up to 70% better than a similar wood shutter. Actually, 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 straight away. And real estate agents are well aware of that. That’s why you’ll see your home’s value rise 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 stays 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 timeless richness of Ovation wood shutters, our custom designs and installations make certain that the final product matches your style and complements the charm of your window.
And what about those specialty-shaped windows like an arch in the dining room or a French door? Will the shutters take away from their inherent elegance? Thanks to our cutting edge computer technology and 40+ years of experience, we custom craft your shutters to look great and function effortlessly.
