"Lloyd is very friendly, upfront and honest. Designs are professional and he goes all out and then trims back. He goes above and beyond with a lot of little things. Lloyd is meticulous with his stone work on walls, firepits,stairs and patio. He does it all, plantings, low voltage lighting and large tree and shrub plantings. So appreciated his advise and regular status reports."

"The carpenter that did the job (Adam) was amazing. He had to expand the space for one window, narrow the space for another, and repair much cedar siding that had rotted away due to water damage. He also reshaped my patio door so it would close and lock more easily. He is a very talented carpenter and I have no qualms about highly recommending him."

"Jorge and crew from Greenscape Lawn Care provided excellent customer service including prompt & friendly communication, fair and upfront pricing, & efficient completion of the project. Jorge listened to my vision and was dedicated to making my vision to come to life. He provided quick digital mockups of my design using pictures of my space. It was the best way to determine the details of my design preferences. The team provided helpful feedback of my design through the whole process. Their quality of work is gold standard, they do not cut corners on any detail. Their work ethic is excellent and their dedication to a projects success is apparent at every step of the process. We are so happy with our new space and receive compliments on it daily from our neighbors and friends."

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.
