Now on to the question; are there other options that can be done aftermarket by good contractors which will be less expensive than TV? Any input would be appreciated.

Hello chiefrose:
First, congratulations on your move to the villages. It wasn't too long ago that we felt much of the excitement and anticipation that you are likely experiencing.
Second, am I inferring correctly that the builder quoted $2000 as the full cost to install plantation shutters throughout your entire Iris? And that 48Hour quoted the same job for about half of that amount?
Geesh!
I would think that the $2000 by itself is an excellent price, yes? But a 100% markup is pretty steep.
