"Frederico was fast, thorough, and professional. While other contractors were messaging me back and forth, he scheduled an inspection the same day I reached out and did the work the next day. I had a leak in my roof. He repaired the plywood beneath and covered the gap with fresh tarp and shingles, and placed a new foot on my city power connection to prevent the problem from recurring, for under $400. I will definitely call them for future roof repairs."

"I wanted some updates done (new/updated lighting, new backsplash, painting) in the kitchen so on my initial visit with Nate, he made some suggestions which I hadnâ t thought of or thought it would be possible to do. He doesnâ t cut corners and treats the job like he was working on his own house. He has the knowledge, expertise and experience and did a fantastic job to help update our 1980â s kitchen."

"Exceptional remodeler with attention to detail and quality I recently had the pleasure of working with Jess and I can’t recommend her highly enough! Jess and her team were professional, communicative, and detail-oriented throughout our kitchen remodel process. Jess took the time to understand my vision, provided insightful suggestions , and made sure the details aligned with my goals. The quality of work speaks for itself— each aspect of the remodel was completed with precision and the end result is stunning. No it only was Jess able to stay on schedule but also kept the project within budget without cutting corners. I would absolutely hire Jess and her team again for future projects and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable, talented, and trustworthy remodeler."

"West Shore Homes installed a new shower. They were so friendly and worked efficiently. I was expecting to have to clean up after they were done, but they did all of that for me. My new shower is beautiful and I am happy with the work that was done and each employee that I had contact with"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Ankeny, IA

Start by defining your goals and budget. Collect photos of rooms you love, jot down must-have features, and list what isn’t working in your current space. Share these details—and your target budget—during the first meeting. The clearer you are, the quicker a designer can translate your vision into a workable plan and keep costs in check.

Yes, working with an interior designer can help you save money. Designers prevent costly missteps, secure trade discounts on furniture and finishes, and coordinate the project so you don’t pay twice for the same work. Their upfront fee often pays for itself in avoided change orders, tighter timelines, and materials purchased at below-retail pricing.

A full interior design project wraps up in two to three months, on average, while a decorating job takes four to eight weeks. Timelines stretch if you add structural changes, custom millwork, or specialty materials, and unexpected shipping or permit delays can tack on extra days. Talk with your designer about project milestones and build in a little wiggle room.

Interview at least three pros whose portfolios match your style. Review their credentials and ask for references. During a face-to-face or virtual meeting, discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, and make sure their communication style and fee structure feel comfortable. The right designer combines technical know-how with a creative approach that clicks with you.
