"We're just getting near the end of the design and plans phase. So far I'm very pleased. Gary is easy to get along with. He listens, loves to hear new ideas, makes pertinent suggestions & recommendations, and has put together a very nice design for the project. I was particularly impressed by what we accomplished during our first meeting. Gary sat down with my wife and I, listened carefully to what we wanted to do and then using 3D computer modeling put together a very impressive preliminary design. He has followed that up with a great deal of attention to detail as the design has evolved. Things are moving along nicely. And, what's more, it's been fun."

Residential Design questions, answered by experts

Dated bedrooms usually share a few similarities— popcorn ceilings, tired-looking carpet, a lack of natural light, and drab paint colors. If there is any exposed wood, like a built-in closet, those will need to be refinished or painted over. Most bedrooms can be modernized with new hardwood flooring, bright but neutral paint, increased window size, and recessed lighting.

A designer is a great choice for remodeling projects that don’t require significant structural work. For remodeling that includes structural work like removing load-bearing walls, altering exterior walls, or adding on a room, an architect can design and execute the renovations while ensuring your home remains structurally sound.

Before hiring an interior designer, ask a few questions to better understand how they work, what’s expected of you, and what they promise to deliver.

  • How long will the project take to complete?

  • What type of services do you offer?

  • Can you provide a project estimate?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Are you licensed or certified in this state?

  • Do you have a portfolio of previous work I can review?

  • May I contact your customer references?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • How do you handle payment?

Selecting the right general contractor to tackle a job like raising a sunken living room can feel like an overwhelming prospect. Follow these tips to find, vet, and hire the best local contractor for your project:

  • Get recommendations from neighbors and friends who might be able to suggest contractors they’ve used.

  • Request written quotes to help set your budget and expectations.

  • Verify your contractor’s credentials to ensure a professional and legal finished product.

  • Read the contractor’s proposed contract to make sure you agree to all terms, including the project timeline, cost, and materials. 

  • Keep copies of all relevant documentation.

A garage counts toward the official square footage of a house if it is considered livable space. For a garage to qualify, it typically needs to be attached to the home and have permanent finishings like proper insulation, finished walls, and ceilings. It must also be livable year-round, which requires adequate heating, cooling, and ventilation. The exact legal requirements for what constitutes living space can vary by location.
