"Marcos and his team are highly competent, competitively priced, and seemingly with no limit to what they can do. They just replaced my deck with trex and it’s amazing. Additionally, they installed a 125 foot retaining wall, almost 6 foot high at peak, stone steps, and more. Good people and solid work! Highly recommend MRO"

"Joe and Denise Martin, husband and wife owners of AJM Earth, are STUPENDOUS. Knowledable, creative, hardworking, responsive and just the nicest people, they are a JOY to work with. I am simply THRILLED with the end result of my BEAUTIFUL landscape renovation this summer. It was a large project, consisting of extensive hardscape (Joeâ s area of expertise) involving grading and installing a large (24â x 14â ) patio with Techo-Bloc slabs and grading, redirecting drainage and installing over 2000 sq. feet of Techo-Bloc pavers for the front walkway, turn-around area in front of double garage and driveway to the street, and softscape (Deniseâ s area of expertise) involving designing, preparing and planting 7 BEAUTIFUL planting areas both in front of the house and in the backyard, which took over 2 months and there was never a moment when I was not excited about how it was turning out. AJM Earth offers a not often found combination in landscape design as the company combines hardscape and softscape so well. Because Joe and Denise are each totally respectful of the otherâ s work, a landscape project with them is seamless from start to finish. I have had very few remodeling projects inside or out where I have been totally satisfied with every decision and detail, but my landscape renovation with AJM Earth is certainly one of them. I would recommend them UNRESERVEDLY for any landscaping project you have. Hire themâ you wonâ t be disappointed!"

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.
