I felt very comfortable with her as she followed all the safety measures possible. She worked with both my husband and I to organize our three closets which had become overwhelming after a stressful move. She was prompt and attentive to our everyday lifestyle and made things easy to spot. Katherine was sooo focused at getting the job done not even my two small dogs could distract her! (She was very sweet to them) I hate to say this but I wouldn't mind having a little clutter just to have her back! It is very obvious that she has a true passion for this and you can tell by the way she does the job. Best way to start the year!

This was an awful experience. I went off of an old recommendation on a neighborhood facebook group,…read moreand I looked her up. Her website was pristine. I reached out to her, and she made all the right promises - she's an expert (specifically with respect to paint), she has more than 15 years of design experience, she talked about other projects she had done. I thought I had done my due diligence, so I signed a contract with her and spent $1000 for design services. To say the least, she was not an expert, and she did not handle herself professionally or even appropriately. She was distracted and brought nothing but chaos to my house... and she claims to be a life coach of some kind? She came to a paint consultation with an iphone and a magazine, no samples or swatches. No discussion of what I have versus what I want to keep and acquire, undertones, light, windows, etc. Nothing. When she left, nothing had gotten done, but she said she "knew" what I wanted. For the second paint consultation, we were supposed to be putting paint on the wall. Instead of bringing liquid paint samples, she pulls two paper samples out of her purse that looked like she had grabbed them out of a drawer. I never saw trim or ceiling paint. When I asked her if she had a chart with paint finishes (because she didn't even know the different paint finishes or the proper recommendation for old walls), she yelled at me that she's not being paid to run around town. So she refused to do anything else that day because she had so much to do in addition to dealing with me, and that she was going to be suddenly unavailable for the next two days. At this point, painters had been at my house for 3 days, house in shambles and we still hadn't picked paint colors. And she was ribbing at me for being anxious. I have messages to her telling her I wanted something calming on the walls. I ended up with a griege that turns pink and orange after 3pm. After, I told her I just needed space from her, she shows up at my house uninvited, she wanted to just fix it, we gotta fix it, I have to be happy. "No, *I* have to fix it; you need to go." Just awful. The whole experience was bizarre, chaotic, and definitely what not would someone would expect from a business called "Simplify with Di." Do not recommend.

I don't usually write reviews, but I can't say enough about Broad Creek and the owners and staff…read more When I decided to remodel my master bath, I interviewed several contractors because we were not completely satisfied with a previous job. From the start I was very impressed with Broad Creek. The owner Jimmy came out to do the initial estimate, which was by far the most reasonable. From the moment the contract was signed, to the completion of the job, I was more than satisfied with the experience! If there were any concerns or worries, they were quickly addressed. Between the owners, Jimmy and Michelle and their secretary Stephanie, the whole project went smoothly. The professionalism and care of the company and their staff made the experience free from the usual stress! The results were beautiful, and I would highly recommend this company.

When we contacted Broadcreek , they came out ( owner) and promised many things. After over a year…read morelater the job was still not completed, mostly due to the fact they took on more work than they had employees and hours in the day. The owner rarely showed up to the job site which resulted in numerous times they would have to come out and redo projects. They specifically told my wife and me during the original meeting that they do all the work and do not sub contract any work out other than electrical and plumbing. This was another lie which resulted in poor workmanship and or the job being done unsatisfactory and them having to come back out yet again to redo the work order. Going on 2 yrs and the owner refuses to answer his phone and will not call back to finish the job when they have been fully paid.

Cyndy's Bottom Line: Cathy P. of Frankly Realty and her team are excellent!…read more Cathy helped us years ago as we relocated to the area and we were happy with the condo we purchased and Cathy's service. So we called Cathy P. For advice on selling our condo and setup a meeting. Cathy came to the meeting fully prepared with comparable info, and data. Cathy is experienced, knowledgeable and real estate savvy. We listened to her selling advice and how to price our condo for the market today and asked questions. I liked the fact that Cathy fully utilized social media to advertise and market our condo. Cathy is an excellent communicator. She will listen to you as a customer and what your expectations/goals are and will set forth to incorporate them into the sell. We were fully confident that Cathy was representing us for our best interest in the sale of our condo. She will work diligently for you to achieve success! Cathy and her assistants Undrah and Yvonne will keep you apprised of the entire process from start to finish. They are excellent on providing status updates with specific details and answering any questions you may have during the process. We were very pleased with Cathy and her staff. I would definitely refer her to my friends and family. We did refer her to my sister in law and they were pleased with their outcome as well.

In this case I had to renovate and sell a property from afar on behalf of an ailing family member who lived on the other side of the country. From renovation to staging to marketing to sale, Cathy and her capable team fulfilled every promise made with outstanding professionalism from start to finish. What's more, she generated multiple, incredibly high-quality offers and ultimately concluded the sale at a price that was more than sixty- thousand dollars over our original price and indeed tens of thousands over even my most optimistic expectations. I can't recommend her more highly...and I don't say - or write -- those words all that often.

However, once they got my signature and deposit it was like pulling teeth to the get the actual project scheduled. I'm also a long distance owner, coordinating the project. So it's especially hard not being in the state. I even flew to VA to chat with them but they ghosted me. Apparently only the owner of the company, Rafael, can only schedule projects on Fridays but he's not available most Fridays to chat. Not the person you start the project with. She can't schedule projects. I really regret going with FKBD for the project. I especially regret it because I paid a premium for the labor, and decided to go with this company vs another younger, cheaper company (VA Creative Renovations - Chris is great - check them out) because I thought they would be on top of the project and get it done quickly and get it done well. Apparently not. There was a lack of follow through and communication. When I did ask for timing and submitted my tile choices with Susan, who was my project manager, she had to call over to Rafael, then he'd call me all grumpy for interrupting his day. Seems like there's a control issue. Then when the project was supposed to start there was an issue with the tile I originally chose, even though I had submitted my design choices weeks prior. They said there was a delay with the tile and they had to change the project start date. Meanwhile I'm trying to coordinate with my tenants. Luckily they are the nicest tenants anyone can ask for. All in all they did a great job on my bathroom - eventually. You just need to be really on top of them.

Either way we had to sell it quick. Karrina comes in and was able to get us a full price offer on the first showing of the open house.
