Colin & Universal Shutters have held onto nearly £2,000 of our savings through multiple delays and missed installation dates. There is absolutely no way they didn't see this coming until today and y... See more

We gave Colin a rave review last year and would like help to find the last shutter he was holding/storing for us whilst our builder rectified the frame. Has anyone any idea of where Universal Shu... See more

Process was really easy. Colin came to house with a good sample of products, no pressure selling just measured up and gave a fair quote. There was some time between ordering and fitting but that was e... See more

Firstclass experience

There are lots of shutter companies out there online and you can’t tell what they are really like. I chose Universal Shutters for the human touch: their staff in the office and those coming to my home to measure and install were unfailingly courteous, prompt and quick to understand what I wanted and how to make that happen. Their prices are very reasonable too and I am delighted with the end result. All round I had a firstclass experience with Universal Shutters!

Universal Shutters - Amazing!!!!

After a seeing a Universal Shutter install at a relatives house I contacted the team and they were quick to attend to measure up, spoke about the products and gave me a quote. The next day I had Hillary’s which weren’t that interested, lesser quality MDF rather than a composite hard wood and more expensive.

I choose Universal Shutters and paid 50% deposit, the shipping time was over estimate so they arrived earlier and within days they were installed! It literally took an hour for three quality, measured and made perfectly windows to be installed.

Couldn’t be happier would very much recommend.

Excellent local company and excellent product.

Highly recommend Universal Shutters

Highly recommend Universal Shutters, they were professional, communicative and just very easy to deal with. Although there was a long lead time, the team kept us updated throughout the wait. The quality and look of the shutters are absolutely fab! We just love them.

Brilliant job again

Brilliant job again! I had the upstairs shutters done today after my downstairs shutters were done a few months ago. I am so happy as they look really smart. Great service as always. Thank you Universal Shutters.

I have had a very peasant customer…

I have had a very peasant customer service from Colin. He was very patient and responded quickly to my questions. He went above and beyond to accommodate my request which I appreciated very much.

I have contacted a few other shutter companies and they haven’t responded as quickly if at all.

Good quality of shutters

Good quality of shutters. Installation was quick and professional.
Little lack of communication during the lead up to delivery which needs improving other than that very pleased.

Excellent company

From start to finish our dealings with Universal Shutters have been second none. Colin was very informative and explained what would happen during installation. Justina kept us informed on how the shutters were getting on in the manufactoring process and they were delivered and fitted a month before we expected them. Jake the fitter was a really pleasant guy and explained the do's and dont's once installed. All in all Universal shutters are a top company and we highly recommend them. Chris & Jill Cann

From beginning to end Justina and the team from Universal shutters were amazing. Dan came into to measure up and guided us through. James came to deliver and skillfully fitted the shutters in every room in our home.
No pressure sales either.
So happy with them and it's transformed our windows and out look. Thank yoy Justina and all the team at Universal Shutters.

Top quality product, expertly fitted!

After some hiccups with communication, Colin reached out personally to explain himself and offered his sincerest apologies.

The shutters have now been installed and the quality of finish is second to none. They have been expertly fitted by Jake, and I can't fault the product from my initial impression. The wait (caused by delays due to Covid) is relatively long, but if you have the patience for it the results are certainly worth it!
