"Bob inspected the window frames and provided a few solutions I hadn’t considered. Same for interior doors no longer hanging properly. Although I typically prefer paying by the job instead of by the hour, Bob was quite focused on his work and use of time. I will be asking him to return in the spring to complete a few additional repairs and install a storm door."

"Steven does good work, and despite a glitch or two, I'm happy with his workmanship. He was responsive and punctual, and quite professional. I'd definitely consider him for future projects.

I had five or six things on my to-do list, and was hoping to get them finished, which is why I purchased a "Big Deal" from Angie's List. Steven came out to look at my list, and we agreed that he and a subcontractor could reasonably finish 3 of the items on my list in 4-hour's time: replacing a basement entry door, rewiring a switch and outlet, and framing a painted chalkboard with some molding. At the time of this review, 2 of the 3 tasks are finished, and finished well.

The main job--replacing the basement door--is unfinished. That said, Steven gave me his word that he would finish it promptly, and is slated install the door at the end of this week. There is a back story here: Steven advised me to purchase a 32"x78" door to replace my rotting basement entry door. After demolishing the door, he found that the entry could accommodate only a 30"x78" door. (I don't blame him for the mis-measurement, as I have a 100-year-old Victorian, and 2 other contractors gave me the same measurement: of 32". Sometimes you just don't know what's going to work in these old houses until the demo's finished.) A 30" door is not standard, and the big-box stores generally don't stock them. I happened to find a 30"x80" door when Steven told me that the door I had waiting for him wouldn't work. After a frantic call from the big-box store, Steven agreed to try to install the new door. I purchased it and brought it home before Steven realized that this would require cutting a 2" notch out of my sill. I didn't think this was a good idea, nor did Steven. So we agreed that I would buy a custom-made door, and Steven would return to install it. The day ended with my old door demolished, the framing finished and sealed, and a promise to install a new door when it arrived.

I must admit that I wasn't pleased that Steven charged me $20 for the plywood to cover my missing door until the new door arrived.  To Steven's credit, he offered to remove the trash from the demo, which would have cost me more than $20. There was a charge for an extra hour of labor, but considering that my old Victorian is a fickle beast, I thought this was fair. All in all, I spent about $500 for labor on these jobs, a fair amount for high quality work like Steven performs."

FAQs for security or storm shutters installation projects in Boston, MA

Yes. In hurricane-prone markets, buyers and appraisers place a premium on homes that already include hurricane shutters. By adding a proven layer of storm protection, you’ll boost curb appeal, reduce future insurance claims, and give the next owner one less project to tackle—all factors that can lift your home’s resale value.

Yes, you’ll want shutters on every window. Skipping even one opening creates a weak spot that high winds or flying debris can exploit, putting the whole house at risk. Full coverage gives you consistent protection, reduces the chance of costly repairs, and can even help you qualify for insurance discounts in hurricane-prone regions.

Most insurers reward storm-ready homes. By adding hurricane shutters, you lower the risk of wind and window damage, so carriers often shave 8% to 10% off annual premiums in hurricane-prone states. Those savings stack up year after year and help offset your upfront costs, all while reducing the odds you’ll pay out of pocket for post-storm window repairs.

Aim to have your shutters installed before hurricane season, which runs from June through November. Scheduling the work in the spring gives you plenty of lead time and allows you to avoid the late-season rush. If you haven’t finished by the time a storm watch is issued, you can still install them; however, earlier preparation offers more peace of mind and smoother scheduling with local professionals.

Yes, installing both hurricane shutters and storm windows provides the highest level of protection for your home. While storm windows can withstand hurricane winds without shattering, combining them with shutters adds an extra barrier against debris. Installing both systems will increase upfront costs—storm windows average $12,000 installed—but this dual approach shields your home from wind damage and reduces repair expenses after severe weather.

The main disadvantage of hurricane shutters is their cost, as they represent a significant upfront investment compared to other storm protection options. Another disadvantage is that some shutter styles require manual operation from the outside, which can present challenges for individuals with mobility issues. Additionally, shutters require regular maintenance, such as lubricating tracks and inspecting fasteners, to ensure they function correctly. Neglecting upkeep can lead to corrosion or damage, reducing their effectiveness when you need them most.
