Sunburst Shutters Company History: How We Brought Custom Shutters to Houston
Sunburst Shutters was established in the early '70s in Phoenix, AZ, by people who thought they could make a better shutter than any other in the industry.
The vision to be the best shutter company has turned every aspect of the window treatment business on its head. Sunburst started offering an in-home consultation where design specialists brought samples into a customer’s house to guide them in choosing the best window treatment product. In addition, Sunburst set out to hire sales staff that were well-mannered and friendly – and, at the same time, experienced and helpful. Homeowners across America fell in love with Sunburst Shutters fast.
In the '70s, draperies and blinds were the standard window treatments in most homes. That’s when Sunburst Shutters gave consumers a more enduring and energy-efficient window treatment: plantation shutters.
Initially, the company offered wood shutters solely. But it was instantly obvious that Sunburst should make the ultimate shutter – one that provides superior energy efficiency, and looks as beautiful 20 years from now as the day you bought it. After much research, sampling, and testing, Sunburst announced the creation of Polywood Shutters.
Once Sunburst offered the first class shutters in the marketplace, they grew substantially, opening stores across the country. In 2008, Sunburst Shutters expanded its offerings into blinds, shades, draperies, and window film – and changed its name to Sunburst Shutters & Window Fashions.
Now, Sunburst Shutters & Window Fashions offers any treatment for any size or shape of window – all custom-built and professionally installed. With 2,000+ window treatment choices and options, Sunburst is hands down the best source of window treatment products in in the US.
