"Jeremy was excellent throughout the entire process, from our initial design meeting through completion of the job. After our basement remodel was finished, I hired Jeremy again to build a deck for our home. Again, excellent job and done in a quick and timely manner. I d hire Jeremy for any home improvement projects, excellent work."

"Wow, wow, wow! I was beyond thrilled with the entire process of remodeling my bathroom from start to finish. In fact, the experience was so fantastic that I decided to have my second bathroom (kids? bathroom) remodeled after completing my primary bathroom. I cannot recommend Sanrad Design, especially Greg and Wojtek, enough. They were so professional, communicative, helpful, friendly, detail-oriented, and reasonably priced. (I was able to get two bathrooms done for what other companies quoted me for one!) Both bathrooms turned out so beautifully? I feel like I am in a spa every shower I take and my children have never wanted to take as many baths/showers as they do now. Highly, highly recommend!"

"They are my regular guys. I got them off Angie's List and they are great. It's an ongoing contract and they come bi weekly in the summer. They are not great at returning phone calls, but they do everything you ask. It always gets done. I would tell people to use them. Don't expect a lot of phone calls. What sticks out to me is that it's gardening, so basically everything looks neat, clean, they don't trample on things, it's just attention to detail. They could return phone calls better. They also provide a snow service and I asked them about it and I had some questions because I was interested, but they never got back to me to answer my questions, so I never used their snow service. Once you set them up, they do a wonderful job."

"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."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Vernon Hills, IL

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.
