Customers say: True professional

"Mr. Medeiros was very easy to talk to and exchange ideas. He communicated well - in person and online - and his written work was well laid out. His references were easy to get in touch with and answered all of our questions. We, in the end, went with another architect, for various small reasons. None of which were because we felt that Mr. Medeiros wouldn't provide all that we needed. It was a tough decision. If you are looking for an architect that will design your dream project thoroughly and professionally, you should take the time to meet with Mr. Medeiros."

"Project: Fireplace ledger stone and mantle, mud room tile replacement and wall remodel. We recently purchased a new home and wanted to upgrade some things we felt were underwhelming. We had a tight schedule to make the changes we wanted completed prior to moving in and Baker Building Services delivered in spades. From the initial estimating walk-through to final completion they were thorough, detail oriented, professional and just fantastic to work with. Brandt helped us make up our minds on the direction we wanted to go with our mud room tile and the fireplace mantle which we couldn't be happier with. Dawson and team provided their skills reliably, on schedule, with care, precision and efficiency. Having been involved with similar projects at different levels in my lifetime, it was refreshing to work with a team that's experienced and clearly takes pride in the work they do as is evidenced by the end product. I would definitely recommend Baker Building Services to anyone considering a remodel and looking for a quality crew to do the work. At some point I may be using them again."

"We hired Atlas (Michael) to create architectural drawings based on our own Sketchup & Visio drawings for a home we plan to build. Michael took the initiative to conduct his own research into a new building product we had intended to build with and was also very patient with us through several iterations of changes to our initial drawings & vision. Michael produced specifically what was promised and educated us along the way."

"My basement finishing project was seamless. After getting several bids and designs, I went with Will, who meticulously went over everything, through permits, materials, and the overall concept including pointing out things that I hadn t considered that I am so glad I did. The project turned out fabulous with no issues during the project outside of normal expected issues when working with construction. I would hire Will again for any future needs as I always knew what to expect, there were no hidden costs, and changes were flawless."

"Ian ("IO") impressed me upon first meeting. I could tell he was bright and capable, and I was right -- my bathroom remodel is a work of art! He knows what he is doing and does it right. Plus, he is a nice person to have around--very courteous and gave me so much good advice. You can't go wrong with IO! Attaching before & after pics, but the photo of the remodel doesn't do it justice."

"Had a great experience with this company. Arielle in particular was so wonderfully thorough. She knew way more about the construction process than any of the other designers we met with and that led to a seamless installation and some great structural integrity. Plus she was a delight to chat with."

Residential Design questions, answered by experts

How long it takes a kitchen designer to complete their work ranges greatly, from just a few hours, to a couple of weeks. Their timeline depends on how complex the design is and the scope of your kitchen remodel. Some remodels are aesthetic and can be as simple as adding new countertops or different cabinets. Those designs will take less time than, for instance, a full gut of your kitchen with a whole new layout and all new appliances.

Pros offer design expertise and suggestions tailored to fit your space, style, and budget.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

The main factors to consider when staging your home when selling are your budget, number of rooms to stage, and how long to keep the staged setup. Since home staging costs about $600 per room when using professional services, you may want to only stage the rooms that are most important to potential buyers, including the kitchen, living room, and primary bedroom. You should also consider which repairs or updates are necessary before staging your home, such as painting interior walls, carpet cleaning, and refinishing hardwood floors.

While the terms 'interior designer' and 'interior decorator' are often used interchangeably, they represent distinct professions with some overlapping work. The primary difference lies in the scope of their projects.

An interior decorator focuses on the aesthetics of a space, making less permanent decisions about decor. Their work involves selecting colors, fabrics, furniture, wall art, paint, and other finishes to 'dress' a room and enhance its style.

An interior designer has a broader scope that includes a decorator's aesthetic focus but also extends to the structural and functional aspects of a space. Designers are qualified to plan layouts, make structural changes, and manage overall functionality. They handle permanent decisions regarding fixtures like cabinets and bathtubs, establish floor plans, and may hire contractors.

Due to the technical skills required, interior designers typically have formal education, certification, and may hold a license, which can result in higher fees. As a general rule, it is best to hire an interior designer for major remodeling projects and an interior decorator for projects focused on establishing or refreshing a home's interior style.
