Confident in recommending Shabby Shutters and Malcolm Cooper’s handiwork.
My shutters were certainly shabby after years of neglect and harsh sunlight, and there were lots of them. Malcolm took on the project. Careful planning, patience and thoughtful expertise brought a great result – a house looking in bandbox shape at a reasonable price. “Un tout harmonieux”, dirait-on! Malcolm is easy going and flexible in his dealings, but rigorous in the application of his craftsmanship.
Malcolm completely refurbished all the shutters on our villa with 16+ shutters. He was excellent with colour choice suggestions, methods of repair and implementation. Highly recommend.
Malcolm did excellent work in refreshing our very tired doors and shutters. Much improved!We would recommend.
Malcolm worked on twelve shutters,old and new. Some repaired, all painted including ironwork.
Very happy with the result.
Reliable, professional and personable and we can certainly recommend him
Malcolm sanded and re stained all our shutters, outside doors and main gates. All look fantastic in a nice deep satin brown. Very smart.
Would highly recommend.
Quality of Malcolm’s work is excellent. Malcolm completed work in the agreed time scale. Would use him again. Very happy
Malcolm’ s work is careful and painstaking providing an excellent result. He is pleasant and obliging .
We have no hesitation in strongly recommending him.
Malcolm did a fantastic job especially considering the state they were in before! I couldn’t be happier with the result! Malcolm also recommended changing the colour which I love and is very tasteful! I would definitely recommend Malcolm!
My job specification wasn’t straight forward, but Malcolm managed the work in an extremely professional manner with nothing seeming too much trouble for him.
Highly recommended.
We are delighted with the re-modelled shutters. Malcolm gave us a very professional service. It was so nice that he was able to preserve the original ironwork.

Pour les francophones, une petite traduction : shabby shutters peut être traduit par “volets en piteux état”, c’est-à-dire : avant la venue de Malcolm !
Mes amis me disaient : “Trop tard, tu dois mettre des volets en PVC ou en alu ! ”
Grâce à Malcolm, mes volets en bois ont retrouvé une belle et profonde couleur.
Ils sont repartis pour une nouvelle vie, et ma maison a changé d’aspect !
Travail soigné, rapide, merci Malcolm !
Thanks Malcolm great job. The house looks like new; can’t believe what a difference it makes. Long live ‘Shabby Shutters’.
Yours George
Thank you Malcolm for the nice work you did in restoring our wooden shutters. They look beautiful and all new again. Five stars, we highly recommend!

Malcolm made a great job of adjusting our old shutters to fit like new. We would thoroughly recommend his work and will be using him again to renovate the shutters at our apartment later this year. Thanks Malcolm.
Malcolm has done a fabulous job of helping us to make our new home ours. A change from the drab orange shutters to the new bleu Provence in just over a week. We bought the paint and he did the rest, including making a brand new door to hide the gas bottles. It’s clean, bright and new. He also put up with four of us working on the roof, gutters, metalwork and garden all around him, it didn’t put him up nor down! Highly recommended and lovely to work with. Many thanks Malcolm!
Malcolm did some minor repairs and also some redecoration for us. We were delighted with the results and would thoroughly recommend him. We shall certainly use him again.
Malcolm has stripped and repainted shutters for several of my clients, and they are all pleased with the result. Gold stars all round! ****
I find Malcolm great to work with and a happy chappy to have onsite. Makes all the difference.
Our shutters were looking very shabby indeed, we had done nothing to them in 15 years and one particularly exposed shutter had rotted away at the bottom and would not even shut. Malcolm gave us a very reasonable quote and we entrusted him the repair while we were away. We set a date and Malcolm attended and completed the work as arranged. We were delighted with the result, the shutters look like new and the re-painted ironwork looks very smart. Definitely recommend, thank you Malcolm.
Malcolm sanded and repainted shutters, window frame and ironwork. I am delighted with the result. His work is thorough and professional. Above all he was a delight to have around in my small house. I have asked him to come back to repaint the front of the house.
Ten of our shutters needed rotten timbers replacing; one or two I thought were possibly past saving. Over three days Malcolm repaired them all to look good as new. The price he quoted us was extremely reasonable, particularly as it included a return visit a month later to re-hang the upstairs shutters after I had re-painted them! I can positively recommend Shabby Shutters.
In June ’17 Malcolm (of Shabby Shutters) repaired four of my shutters which over the years had become rotten at the bottom with the wood badly broken up. After working on them for a day and a half I had newly restored,solid shutters that were as good as new, all for a reasonable price. Would definately use Shabby Shutters in future if needed.
Very reliable, very thorough and very fair prices. Our shutters were looking tired despite regular maintenance and repainting by me. They are now like new. No need to look elsewhere..
Malcolm repaired, renewed and renovated our wooden shutters as necessary and then painted them. He did an excellent job.
We found Malcolm reliable, professional and very helpful and look forward to a continued association with him.
Malcolm is very thorough, hard working and very aware of value for your money.
I had to have four sets of wooden shutters for four very large sets of French Windows (in keeping with the building’s regulations) and received several extortionate quotes for them to be made and fitted.
Malcolm made the shutters and fitted them for a third of the price of the lowest quote I received and they are perfect. As Malcolm has said they are exposed to very extreme weather conditions and as they are wooden one can expect them to expand and shrink initially until they settle.
I would definitely recommend Shabby Shutters and hope that Malcolm will continue helping me with the maintenance of my shutters!
Thank you for the great work you did for me. My shutters in Le Boulou are no longer shabby, they look great and brand new. The price was very reasonable too.
So merci Malcolm – and also for repairing the broken hinges. Now I no longer worry when the tramontane blows!
