FAQs
- What tradesperson fits shutters?
- Look for specialist shutter fitters or experienced carpenters with shutter-specific installation experience — not general handypersons — to ensure a high-quality finish.
- How do shutter fitters measure unusual windows?
- Professional fitters measure width, height, reveal depth and any unique geometry (bay, arched, angled) and record exact tolerances so shutters are made to operate smoothly.
- Can I fit shutters myself?
- DIY is possible for simple, standard windows if you’re confident and accurate with measurements. For bays, curved or period windows, we recommend a measured-and-fitted specialist to avoid mistakes.
- How much guarantee do Quick Shutter Repair tradespeople offer?
- All tradespeople in our directory commit to our standard. Quick Shutter Repair guarantees work — you can claim up to £1,000 (T&Cs apply). Always confirm guarantees with the company before booking.
