"Jose and his crew completely rebuilt our stone patio and wall that was falling apart, and surrounded it with redone landscaping. We are thrilled with the result. Jose has an eye for design. He makes good suggestions and sees possibilities we did not. He used high quality materials and plants and was careful not to damage the surrounding area. I highly recommend him."

"Arturo and his crew were and have always been amazing. I have had Arturo working in my gardens for nine years. His quality is unquestionable and the work is lasting. He figured out how to drain water from a back wall and for the first time in 25 years, I had a dry basement - it was remarkable. His hardscape work is beyond beautiful. He put in two retaining walls, while also laying a patio with existing material. People who visit are always taken with the beauty of what he and his crew created. Finally, Arturor is honest, hard working, has integrity and is dependable to a fault. When he finishes a job, the yard is perfect, he carries everything away. He is the only person I allow to do my work."

"My family had the pleasure of contracting Legacy Hardscape for complete landscaping care that included my front and back yard plantings, tree trim & removal, wood burning, sodding, brick paver projects, snow removal, and special projects. The owner, Moises, is absolutely phenomenal whether with two or three man crew or solo, he provided exceptional detail throughout all jobs rendered. Just an extremely talented and very easy to work with guy. And to compliment Moises' success is his right hand guy Marco, who is exceptionally awesome as well, making them an impressive team. Legacy Hardscape is professional and has exceptional standards for design and execution. We've received tons of complements by neighbors, visitors, and other contractors on how everything looks. The design and landscaping of our yard exceeded all expectations! I highly recommend them for any future projects and assignments. No disappointments at all!"

"I am pleased of the outcome of this firm of designers and you will be too very polite people and know their job and will give his name and company to others friends of mind that might have the similar problem and want an Architect professional. He was punctual every day to complete the job very patience with me in doing the design and helping with finding the right people to work with our plans. The entire job was done with patience and skills and he has a wonderful professional attitude with doing a fantastic job. The job went better than I expected because Mr. Senga was a wonderful person to work with and you will find out when you meet him and his work will also speak for itself."

"We began a project for exterior landscape lighting, but as we got to know Randy, Mike, and Green Light Design Group, we were so impressed with their capabilities, we substantially expanded our project from exterior lighting, into landscape design, adding gorgeous new plantings, install hardscape replacement, and other substantial improvements. This project was beyond successful. Added true value to our home. Top-notch customer-oriented people! A 5-Star rating is not enough!!!"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Richmond, 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.
