My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Shutter question

10 years ago
Hi there - love your homes - have been admiring from afar for over 15 years. Question re your shutters - are they ever functional or just decorative?
What size timber do you use to make up the shutters and do you ever do a z brace or just one bottom and top straight across? Thanks, Anna.

    Shutters
    on our designs can be either decorative or functional. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

    The
    key is to make the shutter the same size as the window or door opening.
