Installing shutters in Austin can cost between $650-$1200 per opening, depending on materials and labor. Few exterior upgrades change the personality of a Central Texas home as quickly as well-designed shutters. Whether you build spec houses, remodel historic bungalows, or revitalize investment properties, shutters protect window assemblies from relentless Texas sun while boosting resale value. CountBricks brings next-generation estimating and takeoff technology to every phase of your Austin shutters project, ensuring you hit budgets, meet timelines, and impress clients.
