Newport Beach has more bay-window openings, more arched tops, and more salt-air exposure than any other ZIP we work in. The 1960s-and-earlier homes on Balboa Island and Lido Isle were built before standard openings existed, so a catalog shutter set will not fit them; every panel has to be milled to the actual opening. Corona del Mar's coastal-contemporary remodels, the Eastbluff hillside homes with their canyon views, and the Newport Heights cottages all share that same custom-fit problem.
For oceanfront and waterfront homes, we recommend our Polylux hybrid or poly shutters over real wood. Salt air and unfinished basswood are not friends, even with our ten-step finish. The composite handles humidity and UV without warping or yellowing, and it sands and finishes like wood.
Most of our Newport projects start with a measurement visit, because the windows almost never match what the homeowner expects from a contractor's quote. We'll show you side by side what wood versus Polylux versus poly looks like in the room, on the actual louver size that suits the opening. The Lake Forest factory is 25 minutes up the 73.

Salt air degrades unfinished wood over decades, and even the best finish eventually shows wear when it's hit with daily fog and brine. Our Polylux hybrid pairs a real wood frame with moisture-resistant louvers. It holds finish indefinitely. For oceanfront and waterfront homes (Balboa Island, Lido Isle, Newport Coast), we'll usually recommend Polylux or full poly over real wood.
Yes. These older homes rarely have rectangular openings. We mill arched tops, sunbursts, and bay angles to your specific measurements. The mill is 25 minutes away in Lake Forest, so panel revisions happen in days, not weeks.
An owner, Dave or John, comes to your Newport Beach home with samples, measures every opening, and provides a written estimate. No charge, no obligation.
