Should I hire an interior designer or an interior decorator?

• <div><p>Deciding to hire an interior designer or an interior decorator is entirely dependent on what you’re looking for out of your project and your budget. Interior decorators typically cost less than interior designers, both in hourly rates and overall project costs. </p><p>If you want to add furnishings to your home but it’s otherwise set with permanent fixtures, an interior decorator would be best for you. However, if you are looking to remodel your home or are building a new home and would like help with permanent structures like cabinets, showers, and overall layouts, an interior designer is best. </p></div>

Q: Should you tip holiday decorators?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s unnecessary to tip holiday decorators, and most professionals won&rsquo;t expect it, but it&rsquo;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&rsquo;re hanging your exterior lights and putting out lawn decorations in freezing temperatures or inclement weather, a tip between <b>10% and 20%</b> 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.</p></div>

Q: Can I change the style of cover on my baseboard heater?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s unlikely. Not many baseboard heaters come with designs that offer the option to switch to a new kind of cover, but you can certainly ask the manufacturer for more information. Keep in mind, a cover with the same dimensions as your old cover isn&rsquo;t guaranteed to fit because clasps, screws, and brackets may be in different places. The only way to be sure is to find an alternate cover that&rsquo;s made to work with your specific model.</p></div>

Q: Should a pot filler be centered?

• <div><p>Ideally, a pot filler should not be centered but rather installed to the left or right of the cooking surface to avoid having to reach over the hot area to access it. If this arrangement isn't possible, you can technically center a pot filler above the cooking surface, but you'll need to take care not to burn yourself. Also, the filler itself will become hot from a large boiling pot or stovetop.</p></div>

Q: What textures and materials go with dark academia decor?

• <div><p>Part of the beauty of academia decor is that most textures and materials will feel right at home, provided they&rsquo;re dark. Some common textures include natural wood, dark metals like iron, velvet, and leather. Incorporating these into your dark academia decor will make them look right at home. Glass is another option in some cases, so fill in gaps in your decor with small glass jars, or really lean on the gothic roots of dark academia with stained glass.</p></div>

Mark was professional. He worked with us on the design as we had several things that we wanted to be done in a particular way. There were a few hiccups and he was right on them. We did not worry. The shower was great.

It was very expensive. When they came, they show you one window and they pressure you into an order. It's a self-tactic that they use and the next thing they send out the man who shows your woodwork, you pick your own woodwork and the style that you want. The man that came here insisted that my...
