Description of Work: They installed plantation shutters in nearly all rooms of my home. We had an addition done and the large window with a large Arch needed covered. They came out prior to ordering, measured, and priced the job out for us. They brought samples and once I placed an order came back a few weeks later with the custom fit blinds including for the arch above the window. Everyone always asks me who did the work and that they've never seen shutters on that type of window that actually work. They did a great job and we were very happy. There were 3 windows on the rear of the house we neglected to do and we are still wondering what we were thinking!

Description of Work: they came and showed us samples of shades, measured for them and delivered and installed them within a short time frame. It was several years ago. Sometime after that I contacted them for replacement of a damaged vane to a vertical blind on our dining room window. They sent out replacements and we were able to install it ourselves. They respond well, have quality products and we are fully satisfied with them and their product.

Description of Work: Frank and Kimzey were exceptionally helpful helping us decide between wooden and faux wooden blinds. Thanks to their advice we settled on the wood blinds for our new home. They installed them quickly and were available to replace a couple that were damaged during transit from the factory.

I purchased the Deal. Received a call from the vendor asking questions measurements and the like. I was at work and was not able to provide actual numbers. As the conversation went on the vendor said "if you decide to go ahead?" I had already paid the $199, IF? The store is very close to my home so I drove there on the following Friday around 11:00 AM thinking in person would be better. I had my exact window measurements. The Sign was lit OPEN, there was a large white VAN blocking the driveway. No one to be seen. I rang the bell or knocked can't remember, no response. I drove around the side of the building to leave because of Van and saw a fan running. Obviously someone was there. Left a very bad feeling.

I did my own measurements and asked for an approximate quote over the phone before purchasing the deal. I got a quote of about $900 total (could have been $400 after the coupon is applied). I thought that was ok so I bought the deal. Then after the measurement person came and I got the exact amount the new price was $1550! Granted I was off 8 inches in my estimate, but should 8 inches mean over a 50% increase in price?? I felt a bit swindled.

Set up an appointment and a representative came out within a few days to take measurements. He sent a few links that I could view in advance, but also had samples available during appointment. I settled on faux wood blinds for living room windows because they were cheaper and looked just like real wood. I have four windows in the front of the house that are all close together. He suggested that I use one blind for the two middle windows and have one border piece that would go across the top of all the windows. It looked great after installation. I also had 5 honeycomb shades installed. There were several shade colors to choose from. I chose a color in the Symphony set, "reed" I think. They were cordless pull down shades. Well made and look classy. My daughter had a lighter shade installed in her room which she also loves. There was a two week time frame from when the order was placed until installation. No hassle and was a pleasant experience. These shades and blinds are of highest quality and craftsmanship. I would use them again.
Description of Work: Installed custom blinds and shades for 11 windows

They did a beautiful job. The price was a little more than we wanted to spend but since we had not checked with other dealers we don't know if the price was high or not, but that was on us to comparison shop. The bottom line is we are happy with using Yocum's.

Yocum Shutters and Blinds handled the purchase with dispatch. They carefully guided me through the selection process and made recommendations to me while visiting my home and taking measurements for my windows and made recommendations for future purchases. I would highly recommend Yocum Shutters and Blinds for any and all window treatments.

I was told the order would take two weeks, but less than a week later I received a call that my order was ready. I made the appointment for installation on August 12, 2013, just one week from placing order. Two installers arrived on time to install all six blinds. They were very friendly and quick to install all blinds. They cleaned up after themselves as they installed. I was extremely pleased with the whole process. At first i was a little dismayed at the final cost. The deal I purchased was for 500.00 of Hunter Douglas blinds for a cost of 199.00, but the total cost was 1150.00, ie i needed to pay an additional amount. The quality of the blinds and service were top notch and worth the cost. I love my new blinds.
