"It was nice to work with someone punctual, skillful, and just an overall positive person. Our family was extremely comfortable with the team in our home the entire time and they worked well together. I will certainly hire them again as renovations become more important."

"After I approved the drapes, I was sent an invoice for $700. I paid the invoice. It's been over a year and despite numerous emails (over a dozen) with Amanda Zettel of Homemade Design, I still have not received the drapes or a refund. I was very satisfied with all of Homemade Design's work up until this experience."
"Excellent - I ended up hiring someone to help with shopping and finishing piece - waste of time and money. Jill's service was by far the most useful and best value in my decorating process. "
"Mauricio and his crew did a great job. The addition is beautiful. He is very easy to work with on design and will go that "extra mile" to make sure you are satisfied. "
"It was good. He got his crew here and got it done. It was quick. He checked up with me after the job and asked me if there's any leaks because he said he would come and repair it."
