The owner is a non-flashy designer who seeks to really understand her customers. She has children and related well to my need to have things beautiful but also kid friendly (no white!). I learned a lot in the process and hope to have the opportunity to outfit another home working with Jennifer and her team. I recommend making the trek down to South Seattle and spend some time browsing and asking lots of questions. So many good options - don't just look at what you see on the floor!

We loved working with William and Wayne from the moment we walked in their showroom to the moment…read morewe walked into our completely finished remodeled house. William and Wayne were absolutely delightful to work with every step of the way. We appreciated that they both had a sense of humor and that they balance each other well, both with respect to personality and taste. Seems like a small thing, but when you and your husband are squabbling about whether you want a 29" sink or a 31" sink, it's nice to have others in the room who can offer more objective pros and cons for whatever options you're torn between. Because they've worked with so many different clients and because they have such different personal tastes, they were great at respecting my husband and I's taste, and helping us to find "exactly what we wanted but didn't know how to look for." I never felt like we were being pushed away from our personal aesthetic, but they were excellent at steering us towards options that would look good with the rest of the design and with the existing character of our house. They also excelled at "crisis management," which was much needed given my worry-wart personality. When something was going "wrong" at the house, or when I decided for the sixth time that the backsplash we'd chosen just really wasn't what I wanted, William and Wayne were great at talking me through the situation and making sure I was feeling comfortable and in control again (or, if not in control, then at least back to a place of calm). Not an easy task! William & Wayne were really helpful in walking us through the stages of the remodel: which decisions need to be made in what order, how long do we have to make certain decisions before we need to place an order in order to stay on schedule, etc. We got a lot of value for the small design fee we paid - their business is set up so that they make money on the cabinet and countertop purchase, not the design fee. That made me feel good that they were never trying to up-sell us on the fixtures, accents, or extras, and that we weren't going to be charged for changing our mind. Our William & Wayne remodel was not "cheap" - our finished product definitely looks, feels, and was priced like quality. That being said, they were transparent about prices and made sure to help us stay on budget when we were choosing our tile, backsplash, and fixtures; and they have good industry connections that offered us a cost savings on those purchases as well. Though I absolutely love the cabinets we got, their showroom is too small to show you all the different available options and what they look like in person; and the Wood Mode website is hard to use to figure out what your options are. Definitely take the time to talk through your needs and budget so you can be sure you're getting the best corner cabinet for you, etc. They would likely choose really great options even without that, but I'm not the type to feel comfortable placing an order for cabinets without asking a lot of questions about "what's in every drawer", so to speak. We also recommend double checking decisions/plans/purchase lists regularly along the way. I'm a detail oriented list maker, and there were times when we'd find newly added details missing on the revised set of plans. That's not a big deal if you know to check for it, but if you're hiring a designer so "you don't have to" you might want to go with a more Type A personality that will double and triple check everything for you.

She recommended very specific wall colors, drapes, and light fixtures. She knows what buyers in our market are looking for and made sure we had the house ready for staging. Once we had done our part, she came in with furniture, drapes and accessories that were absolutely perfect! (She made me want to move back in.) The house was on the market for less than a week and had numerous offers well above the list price. The final sale price was higher than we could have dreamed of and I attribute this in great part to Lisa's ability to make our house look spectacular. If you want to do it right, hire Lisa!

We have been terribly disappointed with our Pedini experience…read more Our architect suggested we go to them, and look at their Blu line of fixtures. We did, and what a mistake. They assured that we are getting a fantastic set of fixtures for our bathroom remodel. We swallowed hard because the cost was 50% more than the metal fixtures we had looked at by Koehler, but they convinced us. What a mistake. All of the control handles and Blu fixtures are stamped from plastic with cheap metallic coating. We've had two completely delaminate, and all of the wall covers have come loose. Our general contractor has been trying to get Pedini to replace those which the yellow plastic is showing through the cheap veneer, but three months later, the only thing we hear is the chip of crickets. Please think long and hard about a high-end distributor who pawns cheap plastic fixtures off, then seems to avoid standing behind them when they fail.

We had vinyl plank installed along with new carpet. For the installation, the carpet techs were fast. The old carpet was out, floor prepped and the new pad and carpet done in less than a day. (3 bedrooms and a hallway). The finished floor looks great. The LVP took a bit longer but required more prep, leveling and detailed fitting. The tech did a great job and the detail work looks excellent. Overall super happy with the finished product and the cost. I'd use Dallas again for any flooring needs we have. I would recommend them to friends and family.

We did not get to work with Sam, through no fault of his own, and would not hesitate to reach out with future projects. Overall a 5 star interaction.
