Charged for everything including setting up the samples and PUTTING THEM AWAY. Really the highest price person in the company is putting away a handful of samples? If you don't like the original design provided, you will be charged all over again for another. Then be prepared to be charged for services not provided either. We didn't even look at flooring samples, but I was charged for this as well. I was even charged for the time I called to book an appointment! I wouldn't complain, IF the owner had at least discussed my issues with me. But after several months, no return calls/emails. There are plenty of other great designers in this talented city. Look for them.

Fireside designed and built a kitchen reno for my 100 year old house. The kitchen footprint was…read morereally small and I had been struggling to come up with a design for 3 years, and they came up with something amazing and innovative in a week! During the build, I communicated mostly via email, and they always responded within 24 hours. All the trades were skilled, did quality work, and kept a clean site. I did end up over budget, but that was due to a number of structural issues that were only revealed when the walls were opened. I would definitely use this company again for any future work.

A word of caution to designers / drafters whom are considering whether or not to work with this…read morefirm - drawings were contracted out to me that I have not been paid for. Upon completion of the drawings, all communication with the designer ceased and I have received no communication since. I was in communication with the designer regarding two projects. I believe that she misremembered her instructions regarding the two jobs and mixed them up. We discussed the completion of a reflected ceiling plan at length, for one job, and discussed the completion of millwork drawings for the other. When I completed the millwork drawings for the second job, she was disappointed that I had not completed a reflected ceiling plan for the project - however, we only ever discussed the completion of a reflected ceiling plan for the first job. It is extremely unfortunate that the designer did not return any of my emails, calls, or voicemails, as I believe we could have discussed this and she would have realized that this is what happened, as I did notice she would get details and information confused as times, but always corrected herself when it was pointed out to her. Please keep in mind that you may not be paid for work you complete for this designer, and may not be able to reach the designer to discuss why you have not received your payment after the fact.
