One of our locations in Texas was recently contacted by a previous customer. The client had their house wiped out by a twister earlier this year, but the home’s Sunburst Polywood® plantation shutters held out.
Most likely, your shutters won’t go through a twister. But there are a few things to make sure of when selecting shutters in Bakersfield that are durable and will beautify your home for generations.

Sturdy Material
The most important thing to be on the lookout for when you want a long-lasting window treatment is that it’s made from an extremely sturdy material. For wood shutters, look for ones constructed from hardwood that’s strong and resistant to warping. Both high-grade teak and basswood (the types of woods used in our Ovation® shutters) meet this criteria.
When looking into engineered shutters, look for shutters built from a solid polymer like our Polywood® shutters. These shutters have more durability than composite shutters, whose weaker construction will more likely show chips and scratches. Polywood shutters are also resistant to moisture, fire, and termites.
Top-Notch Construction
The structure of a shutter has a key role in its sturdiness over time. Polywood shutters utilize tension control pins that prevent the louvers from becoming loose. Epoxy-coated stainless steel staples give added strength. Polywood’s core is solid, and its joints are fortified and glued for unrivaled strength. Sunburst’s Ovation shutters are the only five star wood shutter in the world and are made with two different varieties of joints: dowel joints and mortise and tenon joints, which allows for extra stability. We are the only company that makes shutters constructed with extreme durability in mind.
Sunburst Shutters makes it a priority to take the utmost consideration in the measuring, creation, and installation processes so that you receive picture-perfect custom shutters that match your windows perfectly.
Color Steadfastness
Everybody wants shutters that will be just as beautiful decades after you buy them. Some composite shutters are prone to fading or yellowing over the years. Sunburst’s Polywood shutters won’t ever suffer from discoloration, due to a unique seal that protects from ultraviolet rays that causes fading. Both our Polywood and Ovation shutters are easy to keep spotless by easily wiping with a dustrag.
Protective Warranty
Warranties are one more major component when buying shutters and window treatments. When you’re in the market for a premier shutter, you would benefit from a warranty to protect your investment. Our Polywood shutters are backed by a lifetime warranty against any imperfections in materials, workmanship, paint finish, or installation. Our Ovation shutters are protected by a warranty which protects you from any defects.
