"I downsized to a condo that was very tired when I bought it. It needed a complete overhaul and I had no idea of where to start. I met with Teang and she asked me lots of questions and showed me many concepts and was happy to work with me even though I really had no idea of what I wanted or my budget for the project. The only guidance I could give was I wanted a place that felt like home. I need to see something with my eyes to know if I will like it or not. I have a hard time to visualize what something is going to look like from a sketch or description. Teang had many ideas for different areas of my home from structure to colors and materials and I had to just trust that she knew what she was doing. But in every case I loved the end result and it was better than I could have hoped for. Teang was willing to work with me in the way I wanted to do the project. I wanted to use a contractor that I had used in many projects in the past for some of the work and I wanted to do some of the work myself. And she supplied the contractors for the more complicated tasks. It all ran smoothly. I look forward to working with her on the last phase as we remodel the bedrooms. I highly recommend her for any design and build project."

"We hired Paul, Justin and Anthony to tear out and replace our master bathroom shower and floor. They were professional, friendly, clean and their attention to detail was top notch. The workmanship is incredible and the shower and floor are beautiful. They were extremely pleasant and guided us through every step of the process. I would hire them again without hesitation. We highly recommend Diamond Developments!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"I seldomly leave reviews unless I think they are beyond deserved, and this one is deserved! I purchased a home and have never been a fan of designing/decorating. I went from despising decorating to laughing and enjoying it with the help of Colette. She is lighthearted, not pushy and takes pride in her work. She found some extremely unique pieces of decor for my home that wow everyone who sees them. Her pricing is extremely fair as well, 10/10 would recommend."

FAQs for kitchen design service projects in Royal Oak, MI

A professional kitchen designer is a specialist in planning and implementing the remodel of kitchen spaces. They'll help you pick materials and styles, give you a quote, render a model, and send the order to manufacturers and installers. You can think of them as creative project managers who will facilitate your kitchen project from start to finish.

No, a kitchen designer can't plan for structural remodeling since kitchen designers aren’t structural experts. Consult a pro for structural engineer fees and inquire about changes like removing a wall. Additionally, for changes to your kitchen's electrical, plumbing, or gas lines, you'll need to hire the appropriate professionals, like a licensed electrician or plumber near you.

A kitchen designer’s process includes the following:

  • Finding inspiration: They may ask for photos, feedback on material samples, and preferred fittings to understand your vision.

  • Using design tools: These include computer modeling software, 3D and high-resolution cameras for recording your space, color wheels, and sketches.

  • Considering appliances and fixtures: It’s important that each item is installed correctly, balances aesthetics and functionality, and is conveniently positioned in a kitchen work triangle.

  • Looking at the whole home: A designer will consider your home's age and style.

  • Writing up plans: After taking measurements, they create a plan based on your specifications.

It takes anywhere from 10 to 20 hours for a professional kitchen designer to come up with a fully fleshed-out plan for a mid-size kitchen. However, that time can increase if you ask for a complex, custom-designed plan. Ask your designer for a quote on both pricing and overall time frame before you start working together to ensure you're on the same page with expectations.

If you're doing an extensive kitchen renovation, hire a kitchen designer to manage the project and ensure things go smoothly for you. A major renovation may include new flooring, countertops, cabinets, lighting, and structural changes like knocking out a wall or upgrading the electrical, plumbing, or gas lines. If you're doing something more minor, like only replacing a sink or painting your cabinets, you can either pay for installation or DIY.
