DESCRIPTION OF WORK
I first met Christine about a year ago when I decided I wanted to do some remodeling in my home.  I had a few ideas about what I wanted to change and a few color ideas.  I wanted my interior house painted, new crown molding and trim throughout my house, a tile backsplash, new sink and countertops in my kitchen, new hardwood floors in my living room, dining room, kitchen and powder room.  Also new sink and vanity in my powder room.  I also updated my staircase and recarpeted my hallway, bedrooms and lower family room. Christine worked closely with me and within a few visits we had our plan to work from. She was very respectful of my  budget and the time constraints that I was working under.  She help me coordinate all the paint colors, helped me pick-out me flooring, both hardwood and carpet.  She often visited the Design Center to returning with different fabric samples to help me find exactly the colors and fabrics that I was looking for.  I replaced several pieces of furniture and she had wonderful suggestions for that. Once out plan was made she invited in her team of sub-contractors to my home.  I met with a carpenter, a floor and tile specialist, a painter, an electrician and a plumber.  A contract was drawn up and it identified what was going to be accomplished and by whom.  She coordinated and scheduled all the work and my redecorat project began within 6-7 weeks of our first visit.  She was always available throughout my project and often stopped by daily to check the progress and check in with me to see if I had any concerns or questions.  Christine is very familiar with all that needs to happen for a first rate remodel project and it was no surprise to me that it all went smoothly.  Christine has been available since my project was completed to help with adding decorative touches to my home.  I am delighted with the way my new home looks and feels.  It's now warm and inviting and Christine helped to make this happen.  She is truely a professional at what she does and works hard to make sure her clients are happy also.  I would recommend Christine to any of my friends for any project.  The dedication and knowledge that she brings to home remodeling is above all else.
