"We would like to recommend Jerry Hovels to you as our first choice to remodel our kitchen. He transformed our 50s kitchen into a beautiful well designed updated working space. Je is a very talented craftsman in custom building cabinets to fit into the space given. Each door has a beautiful wood stain and precisely fits together as a whole unit. He also designed therequired plumbing, dry wall, electrical, and installed a new floor to match our dining room floor. He referred us to a counter top business and went with us to pick it out and helped install it. Jerry communicated with us on preferences on even the small details, such as choice of door hardware. We are pleased with his schedule, professional work, creativity. Jerry's careful detailed preparation and custom built cabinets added practical space in our kitchen. Relocating the stove, microwave, China hutch added convenience and storage space. He accommodated our travel and personal schedule."

"Javier and his crew removed a wood retaining wall in the back and replaced it. They also installed a 5 feet deep 49 feet long garden and backfilled it with planting soil. I called them after the first week to add additional backfill behind and to take the new retaining wall and they responded they would do it within a few days. The summer was dry, so, no additional settling occurred... until late summer when we received a major rainfall. All the voids collapsed and the back of the wall showed significant settling. I sent several emails and called Javier. He said he would be there on Saturday, he never showed. It looks like I am going to purchase my own soil to backfill the settling. I am very unhappy with the lack of customer service, especially since I paid them immodestly, once the job was complete."

"Would recommend. Because the 2 gutters we had were very clogged, they spent 2 hrs cleaning. Even had to take an elbow gutter off to clean. Did not charge me extra!"
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.
