Plantation Shutters, Blinds & Curtains FAQ

At Ambison Plantation Shutters, we understand that choosing the right window furnishings is an important investment for homeowners in Perth, WA. Check out our FAQs below.

  • What types of plantation shutters do you install?

    We specialise in premium PVC plantation shutters, which are highly durable, moisture-resistant, and ideal for Perth homes. We also supply and install aluminium plantation shutters for outdoor areas and basswood timber shutters for homeowners seeking a natural timber finish.

  • Why are PVC plantation shutters so popular?

    PVC plantation shutters offer the perfect combination of style, durability, and practicality. They are resistant to moisture, won't warp or crack, require minimal maintenance, and provide excellent insulation. They are particularly well suited to Perth's climate and can be installed throughout the home, including bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries.

  • Are plantation shutters suitable for wet areas?

    Yes. Our PVC plantation shutters are specifically designed to withstand moisture and humidity, making them an excellent choice for bathrooms, laundries, kitchens, and other wet areas where traditional timber products may be affected over time.

  • Do you offer outdoor shutters?

    Yes. We supply and install aluminium plantation shutters that are designed for outdoor environments. They are ideal for patios, alfresco areas, balconies, and outdoor entertaining spaces, providing privacy, airflow, and protection from the elements.

  • What blinds do you offer?

    We offer a range of custom-made blinds to suit different styles and requirements, including roller blinds, Venetian blinds, and vertical blinds. Each option is available in a variety of colours, materials, and finishes to complement your home.

  • Do you supply and install curtains?

    Yes. We offer both sheer curtains and blockout curtains, custom-made to suit your windows and interior design preferences. Curtains can be installed as standalone window furnishings or combined with shutters or blinds for a layered look.

  • Do you provide free measure and quotes?

    Installation times vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. Smaller installations may be completed in a single visit, while larger whole-home projects may require additional time. We will provide a clear timeframe during your quotation process.

  • How do I clean plantation shutters?

    Plantation shutters are very easy to maintain. In most cases, regular dusting and occasional wiping with a damp cloth is all that is required. PVC shutters do not require painting, staining, or specialised cleaning products.

  • Are plantation shutters energy efficient?

    Yes. Plantation shutters can help improve your home's energy efficiency by providing an additional layer of insulation at your windows. They help reduce heat transfer during summer and can assist in retaining warmth during cooler months.

    • 25-Year Product Warranty
