WINDWARD SHUTTERS
To best demonstrate some of the top hurricane storm shutters available on the market, Windward Shutters’ owner Tim Smith opted to outfit his showroom near Park Circle with several working styles on the outside of the building. When you visit the showroom you will get a chance to closely examine some of the available options and see how they actually work. In addition, you can view pictures of various local projects completed by Windward, the oldest hurricane storm shutter company in South Carolina. 4827 Virginia Avenue, North Charleston (843) 881-6262 • windwardshutters.com

BUCKHANNON BROTHERS TILE SHOWROOM
Before there was a Buckhannon Brothers Tile Showroom, the owners worked as tile installers for nearly 15 years. Having many years of installation experience gives them a unique perspective that can enhance the look of a project and even help save their customers money. Their showroom is filled with tile lines and products that are not seen in other showrooms in Charleston. 483 Long Point Road, Suite C, Mt. Pleasant (843) 881-8911 • buckhannonbrothers.com

PALMETTO WOOD FLOORS
Owner John Dezinna of Palmetto Wood Floors has been creating masterworks of grain in fine homes in the Charleston area since 1991.

For anyone interested in bringing his or her old hardwood flooring back to life, Palmetto Wood Floors offers buffing and re-coating, plus re-sanding and finishing, both of which are 99 percent dust-free and do not require a cleanup crew afterward. 449 Deanna Lane, Charleston (843) 884-6191 • palmettowoodfloors.com
