Q – How much
does a Redesign cost?
A – The initial preview at your home cost $75. This fee is credited back to your
redesign project. A typical one room redesign costs between $300-500.
Q – What happens at the preview?
A – We spend 45 mins – 1 hour talking about your space - What’s working, what’s
not, how you use the room, and any items in the room that have particular
significance. I might take a few pictures so that I can remember your particular
room, and spend some time thinking about how I will redesign it. Then we will
walk through the rest of the house so I can get an idea of your decorating
style, as well as see what other items you have in your home that might work
well in your project room. At the end of the preview, I will provide you with an
estimate of the project, an invoice for the preview, and if you decide to book
the redesign, we will set a date for me to come back.
Q – Do I have to be home during the Redesign?
A – Typically, you will either meet me to let me in, or provide me with
instructions on how to access your home. It is preferred that the homeowner is
not present during the redesign, as the process goes more smoothly without
interruption, questions or comments. I will be carefully removing all the items
from the project room, and then carefully layering and positioning items back
into the space. I might also bring in items from other areas of your home if it
compliments the redesign. I welcome a call or two during the redesign process so
you can check on how things are progressing.
Q – How do I know when you are done?
A – I may know and be able to give you a time when you call, or I will call you
when it is time to come home to the big ‘Reveal’. One of my biggest rewards is
to see your reaction when you walk into your newly redesign space!
Q – How is the process different for Redesign Staging?
A – Since redesign staging is all about preparing your home for sale, the focus
of the effort is a bit different. During the preview, I will identify areas that
might need to be de-cluttered, and we may see some items that need to be packed
away prior to an Open House. I will provide you with a written plan of action as
part of my services. My pricing will depend on whether you will be doing the
de-cluttering and packing or I will. Once excess items have been removed, I’ll
come back and redesign the space to best show off the architecture and key focal
points in the room, as well as maximizing flow through the room to make the
rooms and home seem as large and spacious as possible. |
