"We recently had a bathroom remodel done by Sanrad Designs. They transformed our outdated space into a modern bathroom. We love the new look and the shower is absolutely stunning. Greg walked us through every detail and Vojtek did an amazing job. We are thrilled with the results and would definitely recommend them to others."

"Marc is very easy to work with. He was quick to respond and had great ideas. Most importantly, aside from the unforeseen issue with my house, the project stayed within my budget. Lastly, his workmen are very friendly and efficient. They finished the work on time. May have even been earlier if not for some supply issues. All in all, great experience. I highly recommend."

"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!"

"Facet Renovations exceeded our expectations. We were extremely satisfied with the quality of work. We had a great team! Highly recommend!"
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.
