By definition a consultant, empowers one with information to assist that individual to achieve satisfaction in having all questions answered pertaining to that individuals needs so that they can make their decision with confidence. It is my goal to accomplish this for you as a third party, with no vested interest or commissions from any outside individuals or companies.

Having a consultant in your corner will save you money and aggravation. Most remodeling projects are influenced by either a contractor or decorator. The contractor has a group of subcontractors you will be introduced to individually that require trust; in the remodeling business we call this a loop. There are good loops and weak loops. Are you able to tell the difference? Most people can't and it could cost them a lot of money if they choose the wrong subs. Even if one subcontractor drops the ball it will have a domino effect that will affect the entire project.

Time is money; extended time is aggravation. For example, your kitchen remodel is almost complete and you have been waiting patiently for several months. During the installation of your cabinets, you discover that the electrical wiring is incorrect and your cabinets cannot be installed. The electrician claims no one told him to install the outlet. You're put in a position of the blame game. Soon you realize assigning blame becomes fruitless. You bite the bullet; pay the extra amount to facilitate the completion of the kitchen, hundreds of dollars lost, time and aggravation added. This is one example of things that can go wrong during a remodeling project; I know of over a hundred more! A decorator I have found is the most likely person to cost you time and money. They are for the most part well meaning and in some cases talented in design. They are a referral network; they recommend people they are used to working with. In most cases they add on 20% to all subcontractors bill. For the most part they are easily intimidated by the contractors and are forced to sell you on their needs, not costing them anything they fall into a pattern that could cost you a small fortune. Decorators serve a purpose, let them decorate.

There are many layers to a remodeling project, some simple and some very detailed. If I were able to share my experience with you I am confident that I will save you money and aggravation. Who's looking out for you?
