"Garden Guys is a great company. They have mowed my lawn for a number of years and always do a very nice job. Justin has been the one who mowed my lawn for the last two years which has been very nice. I have asked him to do a few small things around the yard and he always remembers. We are in the planning stages for some new plantings in my front yard. Jack has come over and put a plan together as I currently have almost no curb appeal. We are going to install some trees in my front lawn, shrubs and flowers along my house and a new front walkway. We are going with a nice grey paver to contrast the colors of my siding which was Jack's idea. We are finalizing the planting choices and I cant have to have flowers all season long! Cant recommend enough"

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.
