"Zach did plans for 2 homes for me and he did a wonderful job. One was a complete tear down and rebuild. He was meticulous with details and has true design talent. I would hire him again in a minute."

"We had 2-3 years of constant road work as a result of storm Sandy (gas line and water line replacement) and there was a crack that expanded over time in the living area on the second floor. We needed to know if it was structural or cosmetic. Anthony arrived on time and began to examine the crack as well as take measurements to determine any significant changes. He was familiar with the land issues in this area, which I appreciated. He explained as he went along and also went to every room in the home and outside for any other evidence of cracks. He was extremely thorough in his inspection and advised how to correct the issue. In addition he also gave tips regarding procedures for any renovations on the property which was extremely helpful. There was a fee for the inspection and an additional fee for a written report. I would definitely hire again if I have any issues."

"After a bad experience, I hired P.Bright to complete the job. Ezequiel and his team were extremely hardworking. I have hired many contractors over the years and this was a pleasant change. They worked on shutter and trim repair. Also insulating my walls, priming and painting. Lastly they replaced an exterior grille. The work looked very nice. - A proposal was provided at the beginning - They protected all the surfaces and cleaned up. I have cleaned up after multiple contractors and now will not hire anyone that does not leave the job as they found it - They provide enough staff to do the work properly (this is important as a lot of GCs will send too few or sometimes too many) - All the men worked very hard and when I would check in on them, they were always working. Very pleasant team with no attitude - During construction, one may discover additional repairs, they took this into their stride and were able to do it - Price was on par with others I have hired As a general rule, I find it helpful to discuss everything upfront and get things in writing before the work proceeds so there is less confusion."

"Elson and team did a fantastic job. They were always professional and communicative responding to all our questions and highlighting areas of concern. They were able to guide us through our project (a deck remodel) and completed the work in a timely and reasonable manner. I highly recommend their services."

"George made my project go efficiently and I am thrilled with the final result. Each step was anticipated and explained very well by George and together we were able to make smart decisions about the design and build. He thinks about the full picture but can tackle the smallest detail. I am so grateful for all his incredible help."

High end architect specializing in making a house feel like home!\nI make people’s dream homes a reality. There is nothing more satisfying to me then improving the quality of life for my clients and giving them a house that they are able to make into their homes.\nI have been a licensed architect since 2015 and am currently registered in Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Maine and Massachusetts. With my NCARB certificate I am able, if necessary, to obtain reciprocal licensure throughout the country in a short time period. \n\nI am inspired by our local built environment, humble materials, classical building forms and traditional building details. I have a strong interest in the reinterpretation of classical building forms, blended with contemporary open floor plans. \nI have a stronger interest in helping to guide my clients to ways of improving the quality of their lives through adapting the built environment to meet their needs.

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Ridgewood, NY

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.
