"We wanted a design and build firm to make design/cost tradeoffs. It went great as the project was done well, under budget, and quicker than expected. They act as a general contractor and you can be as little or as much as involved as you want. For things we had strong opinions on we met with the subs also. We've been in the space 6+ months and haven't had any problems. Our basement has been dry (they installed a perimeter drain)."

"Daydo genuinely cares about his work and takes pride in doing a professional job. He has substantial experience and can make recommendations for materials and design. He repointed our front brick stairs and laid a new brick walkway - both of which look beautiful. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again."

"If I had to pick the ONE professional that has helped me the absolute most in the past two years- it would be Helène with Estate Organizing Specialists. It was no small task to tackle 40 years of cumulative generational "stuff" from multiple homes as it had found its way into storage units, and my Garage of Doom. Helène is so professional, so efficient, and so sensitive to the various tragic circumstances that make us all "material horders" to varying degrees. She comes in with no judgment and works miracles! I have hired her for my parents in preparation for their International move, as well as for myself before and after my own interstate move. Truly, I don't think I could have made it through with my sanity intact without her help!"

"Great, Dave stayed within our budget and our addition looks like it was part of a whole new home construction. We were really impressed with Dave Kinsella's design concepts and the workmanship was high quality even though we were on a tight budget. Dave comes from a big family so he understands money and time constraints plus he wants his projects to look as aesthetically pleasing to his clients as possible. We would definitely hire Dave again."

"Very well. Victor came, gave me a price and was able to do the job right away. He and his crew paid attention to detail, were neat, efficient, worked as a team to edge property, mow lawn, clear winter debris, fertilize. Left yard clean and took away debris."

"Glen is a just an excellent carpenter. He is a creative, efficient, and artistic problem solver. I hired him to install some cabinetry that came without instructions and had been partially installed by someone else. He did a fantastic job - he is a real expert. I will hire him again for my next project."

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.
