Sash windows are common in period homes. Tier-on-tier shutters suit them well because each sash can be opened while the lower panels stay closed. Full height and café style also work.

How to estimate yours
Multiply the width by the height of the area the shutter will cover (in metres), then apply the range for your material. For example, 1.2 m × 1.5 m = 1.8 m², which is about £450–£990 across all materials.
What affects the price
Deep reveals, uneven period frames and window horns can add fitting work, so a survey matters more than usual.
We don't add a fixed percentage for style, because it varies too much between installers to estimate reliably.
