Do you stand around staring at the rooms in your house

wondering what the heck to do to give it a fresh new look?

 

Woman Pulling Out Hair

 

 

  • Where do you start?

 

  • How will decide what to change?

 

  • What if you spend all that money and it just doesn't come together?

 

  • Don't you wish someone would just tell you  where you should begin?

 

 

 

Conceptually Staged Bathroom

Well, that is exactly what we do!  We look carefully at what you have to work with, and we start making changes using digital imaging. Then we give you a plan to follow, including specific colors, surfaces, and finishes to make the most of what you already have, using our expertise and experience.

These cabinets in the original bathroom image need to be torn out...right?

Drywall needs to replace that paneling...?

Counter-tops need to be ordered right away, don't you think?

We said no to all of those possibilities and steered this client away from a $4000 gut-job on this bathroom and achieved remarkable results for about $1200.

That updated vanity is not new. The name-brand quartz counter-top (with a 12" back-splash!) cost only $800 vs. $1800. The paneling has been treated to a wonderful face lift without removal for about $12  (Ancient Cajun Secret...) and a gallon of paint.

The cost of our Conceptual Advice Service is only $179.99, and we saved our client over $2500 in just this one room, and it includes a Conceptual Image of how the plan will pan out, giving you peace of mind. Our advice comes in a written report, and you will receive actual color chips of our recommendations.

Can we help you, whether you are selling or staying. We can make this very easy, and save you a lot of time and money. So let go of your hair! Call us or visit our website and relax!

I think this is a great service to offer - especially in this economy. I did a little photoshop work for my clients who were renovating their bathroom to show them how it would look and it really does help them to visualize. Truth be told I do it for myself as well just for piece of mind. But I do find Photoshop a little laborious. I know you talked about a blog on photo editing software.... looking forward to that!

Thanks Kelly!

It's a trade off. Physically going to appointments, sourcing items, installing them, and what not even for a single room can potentially take hours and hours of planning and execution. This small bathroom image took me about three hours too, plus an hour or so on the phone haggling a good price on the quartz. I did it in my pajamas at my home computer. No gas, no down time, no coordinating schedules for an appointment time. And it really solidifies big decisions in a snap. So, I find it works extremely well and I absolutely can justify the time vs. profitability!

No one does this better than you do, Michelle!  It is so difficult for people to visualize and you take that stressful situation and you make it much easier for them.  Awesome job with this bathroom!
