"I recently hired Ernie and George with Bluestar to bid and ultimately complete what I am calling "phase 2" of my backyard. I put a pool in when I first moved in 2 years ago and the second half and both sides of the house were unfinished. I had unfortunately worked with shrubhub to design something and that experience is one I wouldn't recommend. That said, I worked with blue star to come up with a design that was within my budget (after some back and forth and cutting a few things out) which was not huge. They were both super flexible, understanding, great listeners, detail-focused, and I ended up with a phenomenal phase two! I was happy with the experience overall and would definitely recommend Blue Star."

"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!"

"Listened to our design input and offered alternatives based upon deep knowledge of what plants would do the best in the locations. Attention to detail was great. Even with rain delays project was completed with minimal delays. Important to us for winning the bid was Jacques submitted an itemized bid that detailed costs for labor, materials, plants, sod, disposal etc. and the progress payment schedule. Other bids received would only provide a lump sum for the project and refused to provide further cost details. I would be e reference customer for Jacques Landscaping."

"We had a new drain pipe with a new wood sidewalk & decking over the drain installed. The workers were excellent. Very hard workers. There was a lot of digging for the new drain pipe & wood to be torn out & replaced. We were impressed with the quality of workmanship. The work was completed in a timely manner. Also, the clean up was amazing. We highly recommend this company. The owner & all the employees were polite & answered any questions that we had during the process."

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.
