"Denis did an excellent job. He showed up right on time. He quickly prepped the rooms, fixed some holes, sanded all the walls, and expertly painted the rooms. Denis was very personable and easy to talk to. He listened to your concerns and addressed them. I would definitely recommend him if you need any interior painting done. Fabulous job!"

"The kitchen looks great. Nicer than we expected when we talked about replacing our kitchen. Team performed extra minor tasks that came up during the project. Project took extra time to finish up, but was able to use kitchen during that time. The cabinets that were delivered had some issues which were handled by Segreto Builders. Extra costs added to the project were reasonable and understandable. Wished we had better understanding of allowances used or not used on the project."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

If you need help with your holiday decorating, the first step is determining your lighting and decor needs to narrow down your pro options. For example, if you want a custom outdoor light display with all of the bells and whistles, you’ll likely need to hire a local holiday light installer who specializes in that service. But if you only need to hang some lights inside in hard-to-reach places, consider hiring a handyperson or an interior decorator instead. It’s best to contact at least three different companies for quotes and to find out what services they offer.

Any homeowner can carry out interior decoration themselves, but many struggle to devise a cohesive and appealing design that balances comfort and aesthetics. Interior designers are not only trained in design principles, but they also design home interiors for a living, so they’re much more likely to produce a final product that meets your needs. Hiring a professional can sometimes lead to savings on the materials, as some experts know how to source more affordable decor and furniture via their professional connections.

Yes, there are many different types of chandeliers. The most common styles include candle chandeliers, antler chandeliers, crystal chandeliers, glass chandeliers, modern chandeliers, drum chandeliers, and bowl chandeliers.

You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack. 

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.
