"Great! It was so easy to make decisions about carpet, upholstery, and windows because Tess picked out items I loved and that complemented the rest of the first floor. I really appreciated that she set reasonable deadlines and met them. And her design sense is superb."

Workers were understanding regarding how to structure the room for maximum use by a handicapped individual. Can't say enough about the workers and the company. Highly recommend. Also prior to this work remodeled a bathroom for a handicapped individual which was also completed timely and in a professional manner."

"Well, to start, the yard was a mess, with broken branches on bushes as well as branches lying all over.  They did a great job of cleaning everything up and taking out any weeds.  Then they redid the mulch areas and put stone around the air conditioning unit.
As a result the yard looks pristine again, as it always does when Ronaldo's crew leaves the property.  Every group that works for Ronaldo are friendly and aim to please and you never have to go out to check their work as you know everything will be just as you wanted it. 
Ronaldo himself is very warm and helpful and does everything in his power to accommodate whatever you need.  He  treats all his customers like they were family and always somehow its you into his busy schedule.  He is also easily accessible and returns phone calls or emails within 24 hours which is extremely rare in the landscaping profession. 
I highly recommend Ronaldo's Landscaping."

"I needed to re-design my only large closet in my home (old house) in order to incorporate my husband's wardrobe from his home out of state that was being sold. She organized itemized all items for donations by category, leaving me with a single piece of paper to hand over to my accountant. She then took away the donations and delivered them to my specified charity. She came with great solutions for organizing our "lack of closets" situation, helped me stay on task and complete all needed pre-work prior to the closet install. I would have never completed this project without her assistance. I found Helene to be upfront and honest but in an empathetic way, considerate of emotional attachment, systematic and efficient, non judgemental,  and pleasant to work with. She definitely has a gift for this type of work. I will definitely use her again."

"My husband and I had the pleasure of working with CJ and we cannot recommend him enough! I had struggled with our living room for years and was never truly happy. Not only did CJ help us design and create a beautiful living room, he taught me how to be at peace with my decision-making. He is the whole package: creative, professional, patient and understanding. My husband and I have very different decorating styles and CJ was able to make us both very happy! He is a principled, kind person with tremendous integrity. Iâ m sure our Project was not one of his biggest, yet his passion and dedication made us feel like truly valued clients. Working with CJ was an absolute joy, and I feel that joy over and over every time I look at my living room!"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Arlington Heights, MA

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.
