Cold winters
A stain sinks into the wood instead of forming a layer on top, so a stained shutter moves with the seasons just as a painted one does. Keep winter humidity reasonable and both finishes stay sound.
Matching original woodwork
With 22% of homes this old, many still have stained trim and doors. Name the stain, or send a photo of the trim beside a window, and we match the shutters to it. Poplar's colour varies from board to board, so a stained shutter looks like natural wood rather than one flat colour.
Stain in newer homes
In newer homes with painted trim, a stained shutter becomes the one warm, wood-grain piece in the room. A dark stain on flat moulding reads modern; a lighter one on moulded frames, more traditional.
