"We are SO THRILLED with the results and with the entire process!  JD and his company are absolutely terrific.  It was such a pleasant process from design suggestions, drawing up plans, watching the execution, and now enjoying the completed work.  JD is a terrific designer, wonderful communicator, and we really couldn't be happier with everything.  We are planning to do another project with him in the next year, and we are looking forward to that process and end product too!"

"I hired Jennifer for a 1-hour consultation to help me choose LVP flooring from 20 samples I ordered. We moved the samples into different rooms for comparison. Her eye for color, undertone, and design helped me narrow my choices down to two that would work well with our home's style, wood color, and decor. Thank you!"

"We had found Aerate One on Angie's, and since it was a local company we contacted them.  Hector the owner came out, walked with us through our yard to determine the work and then gave us an estimate on time and price of the work.  We ran into a rainy time and the work could not be started the week they had predicted,  due to weather.  When they finally did come out they worked extremely hard, and put in long days.  They did the work, and the head of the men, talked to us each day to go over what was done, what did we need to have done and to make sure everything done was as we had wanted it.  When they were done, Hector came out again, and walked with us to make sure we completely satisfied. They did an excellent job, were very professional, very tidy and made sure everything was cleared and cleaned up each day when they left.  We will  definitely use use their service again"

Customers say: Terrific value

"We really enjoyed working with Kristina for our bathroom remodel. She has a keen eye for design and recommended colors, fixtures and designs that were attractive and flowed with the rest of the house. She coordinated the demolition of the old bathroom, the ordering and build of all the necessary supplies, and all of the construction. Very happy with the result!"

"They are my regular guys. I got them off of Angie's list. It's an ongoing contract, bi weekly in the summer. They do it when I'm not home. They aren't great at returning phone calls. I use them. Don't expect a lot of phone calls from them. I mean its gardening. So basically, everything looks neat and clean. They don't trample on things. I guess attention to detail. They can return phone calls. the thing is, they also provide a snow service. And I asked them about it and I had questions but hey never got back to me to answer my questions. Once you set them up, they do a wonderful job."

"After a year of working with us, Marc designed the perfect home for our family. He spent significant time on site to get to know the space and spoke to us frequently to ensure his design met our hopes and dreams. His final design is visually stunning and maximizes space use in a way that reflects both the history of the home and modern preferences. His expertise in Chicago building code and city offices was instrumental in our project being approved quickly. He reviewed bids with us to ensure we selected a GC who could do the job and had competitive pricing. He regularly met and emailed with the GC and suppliers to address issues as they arose during the job so that all were resolved to our satisfaction. Throughout it all, he was just a nice guy to work with during a process that can be very stressful."

"Dealing with everyone from BSC was a pleasure. Brandon responded quickly to our request and worked with us on a design for the paver area. They did a beautiful job with the paver area. They are truly artists when it comes to designing and installing pavers. We would gladly recommend them and hire them again if needed. Our yard went from dead grass and overgrown bushes to being the yard that neighbors now stop to look at."

FAQs for design and decorating projects in West Chicago, 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.
