Four Things Corbin Homes Ask For Most
Whitley County houses run a different range than what's up in Lexington. More older homes around downtown. More cabins and lake places out past Cumberland Falls. More humid mountain summers and more genuinely cold winters. These four come up the most in Corbin consultations, and the reason is local every single time.
Cellular Shades for Drafty Older Homes
Out in the foothills, the inside of an older Corbin house can feel like a different climate than the outside. Cellular shades fix part of that. A honeycomb cell holds an inch of dead air right against the glass, which buys back some of the comfort that single-pane sashes are bleeding away. Drew sizes them to the exact opening so they actually trap that air instead of leaving a gap on the side.
Motorized Shades for the Weekend Place
Owning a cabin near Cumberland Falls that you only use on weekends is one thing. Wanting it ready when you pull in Friday night is another. Motorized shades let you set the bedrooms to drop at sunset and the great-room shades to lift at sunrise, even when nobody is there. The same setup works for the locals who just do not want to wrestle a cord on the tall window above the stairs.
Exterior Solar Screens for the Porch You Actually Use
A wraparound porch is the most-used room in a lot of Whitley County houses from May through October. The sun cooks it from three in the afternoon on, and the bugs and the glare do the rest. Exterior solar shades drop the porch temperature, cut the heat off the propane grill, and add a layer between you and the no-see-ums. The view of the yard stays. The afternoon stops being unusable.
Plantation Shutters for Downtown and Beyond
The L&N Railroad built half of downtown Corbin, and a lot of those homes still have their original windows. Custom plantation shutters fit those exact frames, hold their finish through a humid mountain summer, and give the front rooms back their character without losing functional light control. Building new off Falls Highway or out by the bypass? Same process, easier install, same look.
Meet Drew Farley
Drew is the one who shows up at your front door when you book a consultation in Corbin. Not a junior rep, not a referral partner, not a sub-contracted measure tech. He measures, he designs, he installs. The same set of hands the whole way through, which is part of why the install actually goes the way the consultation said it would.
Whitley, Knox, and Laurel County Are His Territory
Drew works the territory from Whitley County through Knox and into Laurel. He has been in restored bungalows downtown on Master Street, cabin rentals tucked back into the Daniel Boone, and new houses going up on the ridges off Highway 25E. He knows what a 1920 mill house needs from a window treatment, and he knows why a 2023 great-room build needs something different. You are getting somebody who has measured the actual variety of housing stock around here, not a quote-by-photo from out of state.
Laser Measured. Hand Installed. By the Same Person.
Every quote starts with Drew in your house, laser-measuring every opening to the sixteenth. Older homes around here have settled for a hundred years. Newer ones have framers who got close enough. Drew catches both during the measure, which is why the orders fit the first time and the install ends up being a Saturday morning instead of three follow-up trips.

ExploreThree Things Every Corbin House Runs Into
An L&N-era bungalow off Master Street with original sashes. A cabin near Cumberland Falls that sits empty four nights a week. A new build with a great room that was framed in 2023. Most consultations in Whitley County land in at least one of these, and the answer for each one is different.
Older Homes Get Built-To-Fit, Not Close-Enough
Original frames in older downtown Corbin homes were not milled square in the first place, and a hundred-plus years of settling did not help. Big-box mail-order treatments will not sit right against trim that has been painted over a dozen times. We measure to what is actually there, build to that, and install without scuffing original wood.
New Builds Get Dressed Before Move-In Day
Closing on a new build off Highway 25E, out toward London, or up by the bypass? Drew works in coordination with your builder so the window treatments are already on order before you have the keys. Move-in day, every window is dressed. No plastic temp blinds, no two-month wait for an install crew to call you back.
Mountain Weather Hits Both Directions
Corbin gets its own version of every Kentucky season. Humid summers in the valley, snow and ice when the systems track down off the mountains. An older home with original windows pays for that in both directions. The right combination of shutters, cellular shades, and solar screens cuts the bill at both ends of the year. The thermostat works less, and you stop hearing wind under the sash.
What Custom Treatments Actually Save You in Corbin
Window treatments around here do more than fix a view. In an older Corbin home with single-pane sashes, the right combination of plantation shutters and cellular shades knocks real money off the heating bill from November through March. Out at a cabin near Cumberland Falls, motorized blackouts mean the place is not dark at two in the afternoon in December. In a new build off the bypass, the right shading keeps the resale photos warm without bleaching the floors. The math is local in every case, and Drew sketches it during the consultation.
What Working With Drew Actually Looks Like
Three steps, start to finish. Drew is the only person you deal with the whole way through. No third-party measurers, no rotating closers, no surprise change orders after the deposit clears.
The In-Home Consultation
Drew comes to your house with the full sample case and the catalog. You walk every room together. He listens to what you want each room to do, asks about light and privacy and how you actually live in the space. The recommendation is built around your answers, not a template.
The Laser Measurement & Quote
Every opening is laser-measured to the sixteenth, including the odd ones (transoms, half-moons, slanted gables in an A-frame). The quote comes out of his binder right there. Every product itemized, no padded categories, no follow-up email three days later trying to dangle a discount.
The Install
Two to four weeks after you sign off, Drew is back in your driveway with the install kit. He shows you how to operate each piece, hauls the boxes out, and leaves you with the manufacturer paperwork. No follow-up trip to fix something the first crew missed, because the first crew was him.
Window Treatment F.A.Q.'s for Corbin, KY
Yes, and it is a regular part of what Drew does in Corbin. The L&N-era homes have original sashes and trim work that does not match modern sizes. We measure to what is actually there, build the treatment for that exact opening, and install without scuffing the wood.
It does. The honeycomb cell traps a column of air against the glass and slows heat transfer in both directions. In an older Corbin home with single-pane windows, the right pairing of cellular shades and plantation shutters has a measurable effect on both summer cooling and winter heating bills.
Drew personally serves Corbin, Lexington, and the towns in between. Same free in-home consultation, same Drew on install day, same laser-measured custom treatments. The wider Love Is Blinds Kentucky team also handles East Bernstadt, Murray, and Paducah.
Motorized blackouts in the bedrooms and a cellular shade or two in the great room is what most weekend owners settle on. You can set the shades on a schedule so the cabin warms up before you arrive and locks down after you leave. Drew programs it during the install and walks you through the app before he goes.
Yes, all of it. Every order is custom-built, so weird shapes are standard. Half-moons over the gable, narrow transoms over the front door, slanted windows in an A-frame. Drew measures, orders to the actual dimensions, and they fit the first time.
Two to four weeks from your consultation in most cases. Plantation shutters sometimes run a little longer because they are built to your exact frame. Drew gives you the timeline in writing before you put any money down, and he does not take a deposit on anything he cannot ship on time.
No. The visit runs about an hour. Drew walks the rooms, takes the measurements, shows the samples, and writes the quote. If you want to think about it, you think about it. There is no follow-up sales call, no auto-renewing offer, and no deposit until you ask him to place the order.
Yes. Motorized blinds, shades, and shutters that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and most major hubs. Drew programs every motor on install day and tests it against whatever you are using before he leaves.

Big-Box Stores with Limited Options
You walk into a home improvement store, stare at a wall of samples, and leave more confused than when you walked in. The staff can't tell you what will actually look good in your home or what works in Southeastern Kentucky's climate.

Online Ordering Guesswork
You measured twice, ordered online, and the blinds still don't fit your Corbin windows. Now you're dealing with returns, re-orders, and weeks of bare windows. Custom blinds shouldn't feel like a gamble.

Installers Who Disappear
You found someone to install window treatments in Corbin, but they took weeks to respond, showed up late, or left a mess. You deserve better service than that, and we deliver it.

"One-Size-Fits-All" Products That Don't Fit
Standard-size blinds never quite cover the window. Gaps let light in, the brackets don't line up with your Corbin home's existing trim, and after a few months, the whole thing looks cheap. Your home deserves custom-fitted window treatments.
