"We wanted to replace our current rock/plants around front yard and side of house, as well as remove/replace some bushes in the back yard. We asked Jason to suggest design with little to no maintenance. He gave more thought to the design than some other designers who also gave higher estimates. The plants should flower at different times, and have nice color contrasts, and be easy maintenance for someone who doesn't want to pay for annual landscaping upkeep. We are very pleased with the design, quality of work, outcome, and value for what we paid."

"Brian and Marcus were wonderful to work with. They installed two beautiful flagstone patios along with a pond and stream. They hit the nail on the head with everything. The pond, stream and waterfall exceeded my expectations. I am so happy I was able to work with them and will enjoy their creations for years to come. Thank you!"

"I hired Clark Companies to replace outdated timber lawn retaining walls with more contemporary block construction. I chose Clark on the basis of the detail estimate provided by Josh Clark and his willingness and ability to answer my numerous questions. I was impressed with the work effort and friendly, customer-oriented attitudes of Adam, Dylan and the rest of the Clark installation crew. They were creative in adjusting the wall designs to best fit the terrain, and to listening and adapting to my ideas. Most importantly, I was very happy with the end results. I felt I received very good value for my money."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Apple Valley, MN

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.
