I'm Charles Price, founder of CJRC Enterprises, bringing nearly 10 years of hands-on home improvement experience to every project. As a trained home inspector and exterior remodeling consultant, I bring a detail-oriented eye to everything from window and door installation to custom carpentry, trim work, and full handyman services — TV mounting, shelving, closet conversions, and more.\n\nOver 6 years in business, my team and I have earned a 5.0 rating across every review, built on clear communication, on-time delivery, and respect for your home and schedule. Whether it's a single replacement egress window, a full 14-window replacement, or a custom-built mudroom nook, I treat every job — big or small — with the same level of professionalism.\n\nI believe trust is earned before the first nail goes in. That's why I walk every client through the scope, timeline, and cost upfront, and make sure you're comfortable with the process from consultation to final walkthrough.

"I got a deal from Berger about their table pad and just in time for my new dining room set. I didn't have time to set the template due to a new baby in the house. A few months later, they still honored my deal! WOW! I sent it in and they made the pad pretty quick. Shipping was fine and the fit was excellent. I would recommend them to anyone! Truly a good company to work with. A++"

"EXCELLENT!
This was a most impressive job!
I know I would never have been able to do as good of a job as they did.
Clean up went very smoothly as all they needed to do was remove the coverings, equipment and supplies.
For people who think they can paint (emphasis on myself), you will be amazed at what a difference professionals make.  I have done
interior and exterior painting myself.  It was hard work.  
Our home looks great!
Thank you Alan, Gene and Tom.

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Establishing a whole-house color palette gives your home a sense of uniformity and makes your interior look more visually appealing. Overdoing a single color can make your home feel monotonous, while too many colors can create a sense of chaos and disorganization. When in doubt, choose a foundation color and then use complementary colors to accent.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

The main difference between a home stager and an interior designer is that the former creates temporary, generally appealing spaces, while the latter creates personalized design choices for your permanent home. A home stager seeks to depersonalize your home while also showing off the best features of the home to potential buyers. An interior designer works with you to infuse your personal style into the decor in your home. You’ll typically only hire a local home stager when selling your home.

It’s unnecessary to tip holiday decorators, and most professionals won’t expect it, but it’s a nice gesture to show your appreciation for their work. If the expert goes above and beyond to keep your delicate decorations safe, or they’re hanging your exterior lights and putting out lawn decorations in freezing temperatures or inclement weather, a tip between 10% and 20% of your total will be appreciated. Large jobs that include interior and exterior work are also good opportunities to tip, especially if your expert is performing a rush job close to the holidays.

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.
