Shutter BoysStained wood shutters in Tecumseh
Sun and homes in Tecumseh
From June to August, Tecumseh's average highs reach 25 °C or more, and about 24 days a year reach 30 °C. That's more hot days than 95% of the 160 Canadian cities we have climate figures for.
16% of homes date from 1960 or earlier, 12% from 2001 or later, and owners live in 89% of them.
Windsor, 9 km away, has much the same number of days a year at 30 °C or more (24).

Strong sun and stain
Years of direct sun change any finish, and stain shows it sooner than paint. On west and south windows here, a mid-tone stain ages more evenly than a very dark or very light one; on north-facing windows, any stain works.
Bought to stay
Owners live in 89% of homes here. A stain can be refreshed or painted over in years to come, which a factory-coloured vinyl shutter can't.
