MICHAEL'S DESIGN COMPANY
Designer Interior Lighting Plan, Interior Decorator, Exterior Home or Structure - Paint or Stain,
About us
I do the actual work of design consultation, painting, wallpapering, and refinishing furniture myself. I have an assistant that does all my bookwork. I sub-contract other parts of the job like laying floor covering, or applying drywall to other contractors that I have worked with and find very reliable. I work on a cash basis usually in the form of checks. I require a third down when I start the job. Balances must be paid within thirty days of job completion. Most of my clients pay immediately when the job is complete.

The extent of the job I do has quite an array--from simple to extensive. No job is too small if I can service a need., hang wallpaper, remove wallpaper, window treatments

review for work done in 2016 was excellent, I made a mistake and reviewed this Michael when my review was meant for a different Michael. Please disregard the review dated 8/11//22 for work done 2016. He actually did a fabulous job. I'm Sorry Michael for the bad review it was meant for a different Michael who was a handiman

Michael was extremely professional and completed a complicated job in a very timely manner. He was polite, courteous and punctual...so much so that our dog (79# black lab) did not even growl at him. (This was a first ) We will definitely contact Michael for future home projects. Dave & Sharon Kalling - Niles, Michigan

Mike's work was excellent, communication was clear, and timeliness of completion was ahead of schedule. Mike made recommendations that were very helpful with regard to type of paint and ideas for trim color. His painting was highly professional. We completely trusted Mike in our home when we were not there. He always tidied up and would tell us what the next phase was so we had plenty of time to prepare that space to be painted. His pricing was very fair for this big job. I would highly recommend Mike for your painting needs and would use him again.

Michael gave me his advice on which paint color to choose, he purchased the paint for us and applied it swiftly and professionally. Michael is a warm, friendly, professional that can be trusted to work in your home while you are away at work. We are looking to have him back to work his beautiful painting magic again. Michael also patched in some wallpaper around another home remodel project we'd had recently completed. We replaced an existing patio door with a new larger sliding glass door. Michael patched in the wallpaper in what appeared to be seamless (really, invisible jagged diagonal seems) work art in an area that was not the least bit symmetrical.

He was very prompt and job was done quickly and the rooms look beautiful. His bid was half as much as another painter quoted me. He was friendly and courteous.

He worked independently and required no on-site input after our initial conversation. The work was excellent.

I called Michael and left a voicemail, he responded within the hour. The next day came out for an estimate, and the following day he started painting. Did good work and was efficient. He's a great guy and beyond painting, he provided me valuable advice daily on many different things throughout the house. As a first-time homebuyer doing some updating, I appreciated his guidance very much. Highly recommend.

Michael had a great eye for color and pays attention to all the details. I asked his opinion many times throughout the process as I myself am color coordinating challenged :) He would make suggestions, and wow was he right. I love how every room turned out. I still have the kitchen, basement and 2 bedrooms to have done. I know who I'm going to hire!!!!

Absolutely a pleasure to work with. Michael responded quickly to our calls and was quick to set up an install date. He was very punctual, clean and organized, and a friendly person to deal with overall. The project turned out beautifully! We had Michael install some wallpaper we bought from an online warehouse. He was able to explain the scope of the project and gave us a realistic estimate during the first phone conversation. I sure hope the picture we attached does justice for the amazing job he did!!!

Michael was punctual and got right to work; I supplied the paint, as per agreement. He painted two coats and was cheerful and pleasant to have around the house. He cleaned up after himself, too. I definitely got my money's worth.

Beautiful arrangements and wedding supplies. Some things pricey.
Response from MICHAEL'S DESIGN COMPANY
"[member name removed]-- I believe you have the wrong company. This Michaels Design Co. does interior design, painting and wallcoverings, etc. I think you got us confused with the Michael's Crafts. If you can take the review off, I would appreciate it."

I was very happy with the consultation. He was great and spent two hours with me. He gave me some excellent suggestions and was not pushy at all about trying to sell me.
