"Jose was very easy to work with. He returned my call promptly and came a few days later to get a sense for the work we wanted done. We told him that we wanted to remove some old bushes and a dead tree. He talked to us about what we wanted to replace them with and he had some suggestions on trees that would work for our yard. We showed up our deck and asked about what he could do to help spruce it up. He has extensive work in putting in new decks, but just wanted to do some maintenance for now as we have larger projects on the horizon. He was amicable to what we wanted and offered up a plan to reinforce the deck and tighten up all the railings and the gate. He also laid out the plan to refinish the deck with new stain. Later that night he sent us an estimate for the work he outlined and we were happy with price. We called him the next day and planned for him to come out with his crew on a Saturday morning to start the work.
We asked him to come at 9am and he and his crew were there at 8:45am which was great since we are early risers. His team went right to work pulling out our bushes. My wife and I left him and his team and went off to Home Depot to pick out bushes and our tree. Jose offered to get the bushes and tree for us and include it in his estimate, but we are kinda picky and wanted to do it ourselves. Again he was very receptive to our plans. After we picked out our bushes and tree, we called Jose and he brought his truck up to pick them up for us. By the time we got home about an hour and a half after we left our yard was completely devoid of this giant ugly old bushes. He and his team went right to work planting away. By around noon, his team was done with the planting the new bushes, leveling off some holes in our yard, planting and staking our new tree and was all cleaned up. He had some one in the back power washing our deck and getting that ready for day 2. Once our deck was power washed it had to dry before they could get to it.
His team was back on Monday and did a great job resealing the deck and making it look almost new again. We communicated via text for any questions related to stain colors and what kind of lattice we wanted. He was always very responsive and we always felt that he was right on top of things. The deck needed to dry after Monday so his team came back Tuesday afternoon and finished up the work including adding the lattice, providing a second coat to the deck, adding the deck reinforcing, and tightening up all the railings and gate. His team was all finished and cleaned up by 6pm on Tuesday. For the amount of work they completed it was done fast and efficiently. Overall it was a great experience and we are looking forward to using Jose again for future projects.

"AES was a pleasure to work with from the beginning consultation to the completion of the project. I liked the fact that we were able to select items from anywhere and not confined to limited choices as with some companies. I was able to design the bathroom exactly as I wanted as the allowances allowed me the flexibility to be creative. The tile installer was a perfectionist and his attention to detail is reflected in his work. We are thrilled with the finished master bath and are happy with our selection of AES as our remodeler."

"They are a local, family-owned company who did a great job at my property in Columbia. It was nice to be able to find a landscaping company that does not use illegal alien labor. That is an important criteria for me when selecting contractors to come onto my property."

"Don, the owner, is very intentional and thoughtful about his designs. Each is uniquely tailored to the property and the objectives of the homeowner. He is as good as his word. Equally important, he "stands" behind the work. His employees are an efficient, well organized team. The final product is a thing of beauty. Before they leave, the team thoroughly cleans the worksite; their work area and beyond."

"We have been using ATD for over 5 yrs. They are prompt, efficient, and will work with you if you have your own design. They have installed plants and brick borders for us, and maintained the lawn in front of our townhome. The staff is friendly, the pricing is fair, and our neighbors often stop to admire our small garden. Oh-they also do snow removal, for which we are eternally grateful!"

"Top to bottom kitchen remodel, Blackstone design maximized use of available space, as well as, suggesting elegant solutions to thorny design issues. Material selection was well presented and of high quality. The work began as scheduled, and never missed a day. Saul and Marcos attention to detail and flawless workmanship was extraordinary. Communication with Project Manager (ALP) involved a rapid response in all cases.The remodel work on entire project was complete in 3 1/2 weeks. We feel we received everything requested, and then some. Thank you to Blackstone."

"Rick Baumann and his team performed end to end Hardscaping in back yard from design and plans, assistance with HOA submission and follow up calls, assistance in material selection to installation and completion on time and within budget. Rick personally worked with me on all of the above with constant communication during and after the job completion. Baumann's Lawn and Landscape performed as describe and the results are fabulous with every neighbor passing by making comments on the well done job and the professionalism of his team led by a Master Stone Mason, Tony! Many neighbors would stop and watch the work progression by master mason Tony. I am thrilled with the work and plan on having Baumann's Lawn and Landscape back to do more work in the spring. Additionally they perform regularly schedule lawn and landscape care and maintenance for me year round punctually once a week at a very reasonable price. Baumann's has contracted and completed at east two nearby neighbors since the work on my yard was completed.

I highly recommend Baumann's Lawn and Landscape for all your landscaping needs."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Dayton, MD

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.
