"Hutch and his crew are amazing! He came to the house, quickly drew up his vision and gave us an estimate. I met with another company after him and they were double the cost and their design was no where as good. Hutch’s crew knocked out the job in two days and our backyard has never looked better. Do yourself a favor and hire him! I would do it a 100X over!"

"We needed a safer entrance for everyday use and accessibility, so Eran suggested building steps alongside a ramp. His crew built the structures at the same time, using rebar and proper slope calculations. The ramp has a gentle incline that meets code, and the broom finish provides good traction. The steps are wider than before, with a landing that improves access. City inspectors visited to check compliance, and the project passed. The combination design works well for our family and makes the entry more functional. It?s practical, durable, and complements the rest of the exterior improvements nicely."

"When we met Ben, we did NOT have very high hopes for remodeling our extremely tiny (4’x7’) bathroom. The space had sustained significant water damage and was outdated/bland (“before” photo). Other quotes we received were not optimistic or priced far beyond our budget, but Ben came in excited to take on the challenge and immediately got to work. We got full timeline of work dates and a portal to upload all design elements (tile, faucet, vanity, etc.). We loved the empowerment of choosing our own items rather than picking from a handful of available options. We valued the honesty he offered - instead of approving every detail he offered thoughtful ideas/opinions on what would best suit us. The process was stressful (“during” photos), but ended with a gorgeous space that better reflects our style (see “after” photos!) and was completed exactly on schedule. Every worker was SO respectful and skilled, the whole crew was great. We kept in touch and recommend Ben to everyone we know!"

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Duarte, CA

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.
