They did a great job. Even after the initial meeting where they did both measurements and we picked out colors and style, we found that we wanted to double check so Frank shipped us sample books so we could match it with furniture and really think it through more carefully. He then had an estimate the next day after the measurements and then put the order in. Since we had so many custom shutters, it took about 3 weeks for everything to come in and then they installed it in about 2-3 hours. They did a terrific job with the install and even made sure to caulk around the arch to make sure it looked seamless. We are very happy with the end results and they even said if we had any trouble to give them a call and they take care of it. It looks very professional and if we had any windows left in the house, we would definitely go to them again! They were a pleasure from start to finish.

The only issue I had is how long it took for the blinds to come in.  I believe this is out of Yocum's control as they are at the mercy of their vendor.  8 weeks was just a bit too long to wait.  Everything else was great.

The installer helped me select a color of blind in my home, measured and did a great job.  He removed the old blinds, installed the new quickly and correctly.

I have not yet used the coupon because they told me that I would have to take my own measurements and bring the measurements to them. I do not find this to be running a business very congenially. It is very inconvenient for customers and I am used to the company coming out to me for measurements for this brand. The woman I spoke with on the phone seemed perfunctory and sounded like they were not too flexible.
Response from Yocum Shutters & Blinds
"Many customers opt to do their own measuring and installation. For those who want us to measure and install we also offer that service. We only have one highly skilled person who measures. In order to schedule him we first talk with the customer to find out what they maybe interested in and give them an idea of cost based on their approximate sizes. The installer can not measure unless he knows what product the customer wants. We must have a discussion prior to coming out or his trip or we potentially could waste the customers time and/or our installer time."

Very prompt in responding to my request.  Measured and installed blinds in two weeks!  Installer was running late from an issue at a previous installment and called to let me know what time he would be coming.  Cleaned up and took all the packaging with him.

Price quoted was competitive;  Representative of the company took the necessary measurements promptly and installed the blinds within a few weeks.  I am satisfied with the blinds but would like to wait a few months and make sure everything works well before installing them on more windows at my house.

When I called to tell them what I was looking to do, they sent a man out within days to show me samples and to take measurements. It didn't take long for the order to be made up and the gentleman came back to install the shades for us and to explain how they worked (this was a new type of product for us). We have had no problems or complaints since they were installed. We are very satisfied with Yocum's services.

In 2013 Frank's team visited my home to do the measurements for the new blinds. In December, Frank called me to let us know that in Jan 2014, the company was offering a $50 gift card for the type of blinds we purchased. On Jan 31, Franks installers came can installed the new blinds. They were very professional in their work and very friendly to work with. 
Overall, this was a great deal for a fair price and Frank and his team were great to work with. 
I would recommend Yocum Shutters & Blinds to my friends and family.

They came out on time and did the measurements and installations.  The quality of the work and the blinds was excellent.  Both the people I dealt with were capable and efficient.  The total installation took less than an hour and everything worked well and there was no thing to clean up.  A job well done.

The blinds were installed by the company and they look and do their job perfectly. I am very happy with the selection, job and service and would recommend this company .  They were a little pricey compared to some other places, however, they are something we will have for years and years and it was worth the little extra to not have to worry about something that was going to be a part of our home.

The providers constantly kept me in the loop regarding my order. One guy came and measured all the windows. He was polite and finished the job in a timely manner. I received a call shortly afterwards regarding the additional price for all the blinds and the installation charge. I would suggest that customers get all the pricing up front. I spent more money than I intended but the window blinds look great. The installer was efficient and friendly. He even boxed up my old ones and put them where I wanted them for disposal.

I got several follow-up calls after signing up for this offer, which helped me because there was a time limit on the deal.  I appreciated the calls (2-3). I liked dealing with Roberta in the Yocum store I went to. She had interesting input on the styles and fabrics. The measurer/installer who came to my home was friendly and knowledgeable. (Kimsey) He spent time explaining how the new shade worked.

All in all, I was happy with the speed the shades were ordered, delivered, and installed.



The only thing I had trouble with, was determining what Yocum store I was allowed to use.  The Angie's List certificate said Yocum in Delaware. I was confused, thinking I needed to travel from Downingtown to Wilmington to get the shades.  I think there could have been a mention of the different locations and that the certificate was good at any of those stores. Roberta explained it to me.
