"We had a large blank wall and high ceilings. The space needed something more. Jen was great to work with. She asked what our goal was for the space . She gave us a few options then designed a wall unit with a mantle. It’s beautiful. We love the new addition to our home."

"Last week I had Trident Contracting replace my roof and siding, I couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial inspection with Nathan and Robert they both clearly explained all my options without any pressure, to the final cleanup, the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Nathan was great about working directly with my insurance company and providing them with all the necessary information. My insurance company didn’t make things easy and Nathan continued working with them to get the roof and siding approved due to storm damage. The crew was professional, arriving on time and working tirelessly throughout the day to finish the job in the same day. I was especially impressed with their attention to detail—they made sure to protect my landscaping and did an absolutely immaculate job cleaning up afterward. A project manager was on-site to ensure everything went smoothly and continued to follow up."

Interior Design and Decorating FAQs, answered by experts

A chandelier can last 10 to 50 years or more, depending on its quality, usage, and maintenance. High-quality chandeliers made of durable materials like crystal, brass, or wrought iron tend to have longer life spans. Regular cleaning, timely light bulb replacement, and proper care can extend its life significantly. Vintage or antique chandeliers can sometimes last for generations with proper restoration and upkeep.

If your chandelier is flickering, it may just need new bulbs or wiring, so consider repairs before replacing it. 

Most interior designers have at least a four-year degree, if not an advanced degree in interior design. Additionally, many states require interior designers to be licensed. If your state does not require licensing, interior designers can take a licensing exam with the National Council of Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ). Overall, licensing requirements vary from state to state, but most licenses require certain education levels and experience to qualify. To check the qualifications of your interior designer, use Angi’s state licensing tool.

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. 

Designers optimize space, improve aesthetics, and recommend durable, high-quality materials.

Look to the professionals when figuring out the secrets to styling a bookshelf. Place decor in varying heights, mix colors and textures, and always create a balanced overall design by alternating where you place extra decor items. Most importantly, don't overfill the shelf. Leave a bit of open space to deter clutter.
