"Saul has excellent Cust Serv skills. He was not pushy, he let us decide and choose every step of the way. He delivered as he promised. He kept us informed every step of the project. That was important to us. The crew was very respectful and got right to work upon arrival. I plan to use Happy Homes again in the near future. I 110% recommend Happy Homes for your roofing needs."

"I had a huge multi branched elm branch hanging over my driveway. With every storm, some of the branches fell off. It was time to remove the huge limb. I texted CJ’s and they responded immediately. They were able to remove the dangerous limb the next day. They actually cut the branches and limb up for my neighbor. The job went smoothly and the price was reasonable."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Santa Fe, NM

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.
