Evening all, just had some expensive plantation shutters fitted which look great except for one problem.
The wall on one side isn't straight so a gap opens up between the shutter and the wall from the bottom of the shutter getting wider as it goes up. It's about 28-29mm at its widest so caulk is no good. Would like to get your opinions if possible as to the options available:
Plastering - could we fill and skim over and colour match to the walls?
UPVC or wood trim - could we colour match and glue this on? Might this just look wonky as the gap isn't the same width all the way up?
I think removing the shutters would be a massive pain so if that could be avoided then more the better.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Thanks
Chris
