From start to finish the Experience has first class ( a little miss understanding on my part🤣🤣)
Fitting day John ( fitter) called me to let me know what time he would arrive,
John loves a mug of tea!!! Or two🤔🤔 but his quality of work is outstanding, and such a lovely chap and a pleasure to let into my home, a very good representation of the company.
If your thinking of Window Shutters, then don’t look any further, fantastic price, quality and workmanship.
The room now feels finished and more homely!! If that makes sense and we have been here 25 years.

Cool Shutters were excellent

Cool Shutters were excellent. David and his team were very helpful, friendly and provided faultless service.
My shutters are perfect, they’ve made a real feature of my room - couldn’t be happier with them.

Really pleasant and easy transaction.

The whole purchasing/ordering experience was as easy and pleasant as you could ask for. No hard sell and super supportive in advice as I wanted an odd shaped shutter. The quality of the shutter was top notch and it was supplied before the date promised. I can't fault the Cool Shutters team and would recommend them to anyone.

I am so happy with my pure white shutters. It’s like living in a new house. Everywhere looks bright, clean and minimalistic. They are amazing from the inside and outside. I have even noticed people looking at them when they walk past and it makes me smile.
They are not cheap, but I am so glad I got them. I deserve them :)

Fantastic Looking shutters

A big thank you to David and Cool Shutters for the smooth fitting of our conservatory shutters. From survey to fitting all went according to plan. We had John to fit them for us, his standard of work was immaculate. He was so precise and meticulous in the way he approached the job, and added to that he was a nice guy. Would definitely recommend Cool Shuttles to others.

Excellant service / quality and cost.

Thankyou so much to all the team at Cool Shutters. Excellant customer service from the initial survey to fitting. Further more quality and price second to none.
So please with the fitting and the shutters look the part. The room has been transformed.
I would highly recommend the shutters from Cool Shutter above another supplier.

A very pleased customer

our shutters were installed by mat the fitter who made an excellent job and adhered to the covid distancing while working at our premises. Also the quality of the shutters are far beyond expectations. Well worth the wait,
A big thankyou to all at cool shutters we could not be happier.

Superb from start to finish…

We have had three window shutters fitted in July 2020, and are really happy with the installed product. Having found the company on Instagram, and in support of the product itself, the negotiations and sale period was refreshingly straight forward and professional. The survey was conducted swiftly and again, professionally, and the customer support and communications leading up to install have been first rate - even during the difficult lockdown period...We would have no hesitation is recommending Cool Shutters to others, and are pleased to support local businesses who are offering a great product and service...

One year on... still waiting !

Still awaiting the completion of our shutters, one year on. Date of order was 8 Feb 2019, lead time 14 weeks, due to Chinese New Year... last year! Original fit was 2 July 2019, 5 months from the date of order. John worked tirelessly on the day of fit, on his own until 9.30 pm! But with damaged shutters received, replacement shutters were ordered, which Cool Shutters confirmed did arrive in the UK in December 2019! Refit scheduled for early January 2020 but postponed and now one year on, we wait. Even with COVID-19, we have been very patient. No communication whatsoever from David Waxman, Company Director in a year. David does not take ownership post sales, which does not match the Company Service Promise.

Cool shutters

Cool shutters were great! They were recommended to us by a neighbour. It was easy to arrange an appointment to view samples and measure up. We were warned there would be a delay in installation due to covid 19. When I was told the shutters were ready, I was able to get them installed the following week. Matt, who fitted them, was very professional and ensured I was happy with everything before he left.

We ordered shutters from David who offered a very friendly and honest service. My mum wanted them for the two front windows in her bungalow. We had a slight delay due to Covid but they were fitted as soon as possible. They were fitted by John in half a day who offered a friendly and very pleasing job. My mum is absolutely delighted and still finds herself admiring them inside the house and out. They give her a feel of security, privacy and really add to the overall look of her home.
We would totally recommend Cool Shutters for quality, trust and general good service.

Second time using cool shutters!

This is the second occasion I have used cool shutters over the course of the past 4 years. David the managing director has always been polite and friendly and the price provided has always been very competitive in comparison to other shutter companies. Id also like to add that John who has fitted shutters on both my old and current property really is a credit to the company, he’s a lovely bloke who does a cracking job and the quality of the shutters really can’t be faulted.

Unfortunately the one thing that lets this company down is the customer service or lack there off. On the second occasion of utilising this company’s services I ordered my shutters October of 2019 and was advised that the shutters would take approximately 12 weeks to arrive, this was then extended due to the Chinese New Year and subsequently extended further due to the corona virus pandemic. I appreciate that current events are unprecedented but touching base with customers every few weeks to provide a little reassurance shouldn’t be too much of an ask especially when paying an up front 50% deposit.

At times I genuinely questioned whether or not the company had gone under when phone calls and emails where left unanswered, the onus frequently fell on me to do the chasing in order to get a simple update. When I finally did get through I was often provided with vague and contradictory information which didn’t do much to alleviate my concerns. Only when pressure was applied did the information provided alter from “I don’t know when you’ll be getting your shutters,” too “the shutters have arrived.” Thankfully arrive they did, six months after initially ordering them, at which point the customer service team discovered how to utilise a telephone and requested the remainder of the outstanding balance, this was requested even before John had the opportunity to remove the shutters from there boxes for inspection.

I appreciate that many of the customer service team have been furloughed but I experienced similar customer service issues upon first using the company four plus years ago, sadly it hasn’t improved. Ultimately I’m happy with the product provided and they do look great in my home but the customer service really needs to improve and sadly let’s down an otherwise great little company.

Fantastic Service!!

Highly recommend Cool Shutters. Very professional, kept me up-to-date with a delay from the supplier - which was obviously no fault of theirs. Turned up on time, and John who fitted the shutters was very courteous and professional - and left the place spotless despite my puppy trying to eat everything he put down!!

LOVE my new shutters.
