Hi Guys,
We used a place called Port Philip Shutters or something for our last house to get some plantation shutters at a reduced cost...
They were great but they come unpainted...and if you've ever painted some you'll know the absolute hell it is to put 3 coats on those suckers. Needless to say I'm not gonna go down that path again.
I've noticed a bunch more places doing the same thing now - with some offering a white 2-pak finish as well...so its just order, wait, assemble and hang...all HEAPS cheaper than a place that comes, measures, etc....
Has anyone done this in the past - any feedback about who to use or not to use?
Some I've found are:
My Shutters Online | Plantation Shutters | DIY Shutters (http://www.plantation-shutters.com.au/index.html)
https://www.iseekblinds.com.au/plantation-shutters
Shutters Online | Premium Aluminium & Wooden Plantation Shutters (http://www.shutters.com.au/)
