Architectural cues we survey for on a new-build home
New-build homes were built 2010–present. In Wilmslow they cluster around large detached and Edwardian villa. On survey we look for:
- square uPVC casement openings, all to standard sizes
- shallow plaster reveals (60–75mm)
- bi-fold or French doors to the rear garden
- en-suite and utility rooms with small high-level windows
Openings we usually shutter on a new-build home
- standard uPVC casement pairs on the front
- large picture window to the lounge
- bi-fold doors 3–5 panels wide
- small en-suite obscure-glazed casement
Full-height single-tier panels; tracked panels on bi-folds is our starting point — adjusted for ceiling height, sash split and existing joinery on the day.

Where a new-build home shutter job usually goes wrong
Every new-build home we've quoted in Wilmslow has thrown up one of these:
- shallow reveals (60–75mm) often need face-fix or a Z-frame extension
- trickle vents at the head must not be blocked
- bi-folds need a track solution — solid tracked panels, not hinged
- developer glazing is often thicker than expected — handles project further
That's why the survey is done in person — templated, not measured off a plan.

What we check before pricing a SK9 project
Reveal depth, sash hardware, panel span and daily privacy needs are measured in person. That is why the usual Wilmslow project sits around £3,000 – £10,000, rather than being forced into a generic online estimate.

Common Questions
Frequently asked
My reveals are really shallow — will shutters still fit?
Yes — with a Z-frame extension or face-fix mount the shutter sits proud of the reveal without fouling the handle. We survey reveal depth before quoting. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Wilmslow (SK9).
Can you shutter my bi-fold doors?
Yes — tracked panels run on a top and bottom rail and stack to one side when the doors open. Panel count matches the door leaf count so nothing catches. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Wilmslow (SK9).
Is hardwood overkill in a new build?
Often yes — MDF or engineered hardwood is more dimensionally stable in dry, well-heated new-build interiors and costs less. We recommend it on any new-build package unless a bathroom is included. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Wilmslow (SK9).
Do you cover new-build homes in Wilmslow?
Yes — SK9 are on our regular survey run. New-build homes are one of the most common briefs across Wilmslow.
What's the ballpark cost for shutters on a Wilmslow new-build home?
£1,800–£3,200 for a whole-ground-floor package for the elements described above. Whole-house new-build home projects sit within the £3,000 – £10,000 band.
