Shutters in Dunedin, FL.
Shutters for Dunedin homes, handled by experienced Pinellas County window treatment pros. A lot of the older homes in Old Northeast, Kenwood, and the beach cottages scattered from Pass-a-Grille to Dunedin are still dressed in whatever mini blinds the previous owner left behind, usually warped, yellowed, or hanging crooked from a decade of Gulf humidity. Plantation shutters solve that permanently.
Why is shutters different in North Pinellas Pinellas County?
Dunedin and Palm Harbor's mix of older bungalows and newer tract construction means we're fitting shutters to two very different window styles in the same neighborhood some weeks. Tarpon Springs' historic homes near the sponge docks get the most requests for a period-appropriate stain match, since a lot of these houses predate the 1950s. Ozona and Crystal Beach's smaller waterfront cottages tend toward the same moisture-resistant panel choice as the Gulf Beaches, since both sit close enough to open water to see similar humidity swings.
