"Very smooth, hired again to do a small bathroom remodel. Harvey Benjamin, the owner really impressed me and my husband. At first I wasn’t sure about letting such a young man handle such a huge project ($36,000) patio remodel. but after meeting with other local construction contractors, I was extremely impressed by Harvey’s Knowledge and expertise in the exterior field. long story short, within 10 days his team totally transformed our crappy little yard into a neighborhood Envy. they now Maintain our lawn and remove our snow in the winter time, eventually they were hired by our neighbors to do lawn maintenance . Great guy, affordable prices and extremely talented"

"We would recommend Wendy in a heartbeat to anyone looking for interior design or decorating expertise. We started with one small bathroom layout project, and eventually used Wendy for almost every decision in our new house, from art and furniture selection, to cabinet layouts, to window design, to paint colors, to outlet and lighting placement, to crown molding design and so much more. She is creative, efficient, responsive, and very easy to work with. She is connected with so many different vendors and suppliers, and pays close attention to all details. Her pricing is very reasonable, and the value she delivers is priceless."

"Working with Juan and his team was a great experience. Juan was very responsive via email and was very willing to work with us on the overall design and plant choice. He even came back to the table with new options for plants when we vetoed the original recommendations. His team was hard working and respectful, and overall did a great job. They even went above and beyond what I was originally asking for and cleaned up and mulched some beds that weren't even in the quote. Definitely would recommend."

After our basement remodel was finished, I hired Jeremy again to build a deck for our home. Again, excellent job and done in a quick and timely manner. I d hire Jeremy for any home improvement projects, excellent work."

"We are SO THRILLED with the results and with the entire process!  JD and his company are absolutely terrific.  It was such a pleasant process from design suggestions, drawing up plans, watching the execution, and now enjoying the completed work.  JD is a terrific designer, wonderful communicator, and we really couldn't be happier with everything.  We are planning to do another project with him in the next year, and we are looking forward to that process and end product too!"

"Marc and team were great! Got the project done early - and worked with us to perfect a super finicky paint color that we had to redo. The team was gracious and very communicative."

"Raul was extremely professional and punctual. We left much of the recommendation for plant materials to them, and they consulted with our Board representative to on the design for the yard. They set a date for the install and were prompt, had a crew of over 10 workers and completed all the work in one day. Our yard looks amazing and our neighbors have all made positive comments. The best part is that it is now maintenance free. We sold all of our lawn mowers and are happier for it.

Small jobs welcome

"Unique Landscaping is a perfect name for this â uniqueâ company. Every one of their team members were great! They were professional, and responsible, and worked really hard each day they were here! Fabianâ the company owner was just a great guy all around! They built a beautiful new patio for us, including a retaining wall for decorative and extra â seatingâ purposes. They worked with us on all the design details, even if we requested more time or additional sample materials. Unique also redid our front and side stoops. There were a couple of small â glitchesâ along the wayâ ¦ not surprising with any major projectâ ¦ but when we pointed them out, Fabian was really great in making sure things were done appropriately to address any concerns. We highly recommend working with Unique, and recommend booking early since their great work and reputation mean their schedule fills up fast!"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Arlington Heights, IL

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.
