I had tried several AI tools before, but without accurate measurements, they weren't very helpful. Her precision made a huge difference. * Flexible options for every budget She provided multiple options (low, mid, and high-end), which helped me visualize different directions while staying within my budget. * Great collaboration & support My ideas changed quite a bit during the process, and I requested several updates after the initial design. She was patient, supportive, and always improved my ideas with thoughtful suggestions. * Very responsive She replied quickly whenever I had questions or needed advice, which made everything smooth and stress-free. * Cost-efficient & transparent pricing Her pricing is clear, and she delivers excellent value for the quality of work. Overall: If you're detail-oriented, have a specific vision (or even if you're still figuring it out), and budget conscious, I highly recommend Ammie!

I'm so glad I found Ammie to work with on remodeling my first home! She responded so quickly when I…read morereached out for an inquiry and took the time to answer all my questions. She never pressured me while I was still considering whether to get an interior designer or not, and she was very upfront about her costs and services. She made the whole process really comfortable. When Ammie came to see the space, she had an eye for making the house a home. She immediately knew to recommend adding a kitchen island. This was something I was actually going back and forth on for a really long time, and I had so many people telling me not to do it and how it would look weird or there wouldn't be enough space in the kitchen, etc. After renovations, I'm so glad we got an island because it's functional and it really elevates the space, I love it. All her measurements and recommendations are spot on. Ammie took a lot of stress and weight off my shoulders because I knew whatever she recommended was in my best interest and aesthetic. I also asked so many questions and she was always prompt to answer. 10/10 recommend working with Ammie on your next design project. Thank you Ammie! :)

I'm very happy with many of the choices we made, and the finished result is attractive, cohesive, and much more polished than I could have accomplished on my own. Sanaz has a good eye for design and helped bring everything together very nicely. I do have a few nits. At times, I was presented with only one or two choices for a particular piece, and when I asked for alternatives, I would often get just one or two more. I would have enjoyed seeing a somewhat broader range of options from the outset. The other minor disappointment was a beautiful kitchen table that unfortunately marks very easily. I ultimately added a glass top to protect it, and even now I tend to keep it covered. It still looks great, but I wish practicality and durability had factored a little more heavily into that particular selection. Those points aside, I'm pleased with the overall outcome and enjoyed working with Sanaz. I would recommend 27 Diamonds to someone looking for professional design help and a well-coordinated finished result.

I have hired 1st Stage for multiple properties over the years. In the past, they generally did…read moregreat work and I was impressed with their staging style, professionalism, availability, and pricing. That said, my most recent experience was disappointing. I had them stage a modern townhouse in Costa Mesa near the beach. Unfortunately, the staging style they chose did not match the aesthetic of the property at all. I am not a designer, so I typically trust their vision and let them take the lead. This time, I reached out to their team and simply asked if we could swap out a few items to make the space feel more modern or beachy. I was told I would need to pay a restocking fee. That response was frustrating. I had referred them many jobs and clients in the past, and while the fee itself was not a large amount, it felt unnecessary and left a bad impression. They did eventually waive the fee, which I appreciated, but the situation already felt mishandled. Fast forward a bit. The property did not sell, and I requested that it be de-staged. Their team came out a few days later and removed the furniture. A few months after that, they emailed both me and my client, who was the actual party to the staging contract, claiming there was a prorated balance due for a few extra days the furniture remained in the home. The amount was under $400. The contract was between my client and 1st Stage, not me, so I was confused as to why I was included. Shortly after, Mark Sutton emailed me directly asking if I could take care of the payment by the next day. I found that extremely unprofessional. Agents are the ones who bring them business, and asking me to personally pay an invoice that had nothing to do with me showed a real lack of business judgment. I expressed my disappointment with their customer service, and the only response I received was a payment link. If you are looking for a stager who truly feels like a partner and values long-term relationships, I would think twice before using this company. In my experience, once an issue arises, you are treated like just another number, and preserving relationships does not seem to be a priority.

I want to reiterate my original review of MAC Flooring & Interiors. Once again, they were absolutely excellent from beginning to end. The quality of their work, their professionalism, and the care they took with my home were every bit as good as my first experience with them. It is wonderful to find a company that delivers the same excellent service when you use them again. I would not hesitate to use MAC Flooring & Interiors in the future, and I highly recommend them.

If a friend were considering MAC for a home project, I would strongly discourage them…read more We hired MAC to replace our downstairs floors after a positive showroom experience. Tanner showed us Bjelin flooring that was gorgeous, exactly what we wanted. It was a relatively new product, but he spoke confidently about its durability. When he came to measure, I specifically showed our 15-year-old kitchen tile, which had become badly dinged over time, and asked if the new flooring would eventually look the same. I emphasized that durability was #1 to us. He assured me this flooring was exceptionally durable and would not end up looking like that. We received another quote about $2k less, but chose MAC because we expected a smoother project with them if anything went wrong. Sadly, that was not our experience. The product we were sold is not right for our family, and there were also problems with installation, communication, workmanship, and care of our home. Before the project began, I asked about protecting our cabinets and window shutters from construction dust. I was told by email and by project manager Matt that I didn't need to do anything because the crew would handle it. They did not. Only the kitchen cabinets were covered. When we returned home, dust was everywhere inside built-ins and bathroom cabinets and all over the shutters. I spent significant time cleaning and had our housecleaners help at an additional cost. Matt said a lockbox would be used for our key. Instead, I found our key sitting outside next to a planter. He also said he would meet me on the first morning to walk through everything. I waited, but no one came or even contacted me. They also showed little care for our property. They left large chunks of wood and sawdust throughout our yard and poured leftover concrete along the side of our house, onto our stepping-stone walkway and around plants where our children play. And then there was the workmanship. When we returned home, we found: * Multiple noticeable scratches on our new flooring * A dishwasher that could not open because the toe kick was too tall * A big hole in the drywall from demo * A large gap in another section of toe kick * The kitchen toe kick painted the wrong color * Missing hearth trim because they had ordered the wrong length * Finishing trim that took multiple visits to complete * Drain stopper of our newly installed bathroom faucet was broken and hidden * Our couch feet reinstalled incorrectly with stripped screws, requiring us to pay the couch company to repair them It took 6 days after I reported the dishwasher issue before they came back to remove the toe kick, meaning I couldn't use my dishwasher for nearly a week. The plumber they sent also hooked the dryer up incorrectly, so it was venting humidity back into our house. We were charged literally $900 for this work. When I brought up the broken drain stopper with Matt, he said his crew hadn't done it, but would cover the replacement. We had to contact the manufacturer, learn the stopper couldn't be purchased separately, and replace it ourselves. The lack of accountability was a recurring theme. When Kristin walked through the problems, she acknowledged some poor workmanship, but there was no recognition of the inconvenience this project had caused. And the flooring itself has been the biggest disappointment. We don't wear shoes in our house, put area rugs throughout the downstairs, every piece of furniture has thick felt pads, and we are extremely careful not to drag anything across the floor. Yet I discover new scratches daily. My children cannot even play normally with ANY toys on the floor without scratching it. The installation was supposed to take one week. Instead, the crew returned at least six additional times for repairs, mistakes, unfinished work, and corrections. It was summer and each time they came back was a morning I couldn't take my kids out to do something fun. The last few visits were particularly telling. MAC sent a guy who was already leaving the company to repaint the kitchen toe kick. He determined it needed primer, but instead told me to prime and paint it myself. I followed his instructions, but paint and primer leaked under the tape because it wasn't properly sealed. I then spent HOURS cleaning paint off our brand-new floors--something I never should have been responsible for. We expected a high level of care and professionalism for an $18,000+ project. Instead, we felt our home, time, and concerns were repeatedly treated as inconveniences. We trusted MAC to recommend a product that would work for our family after I specifically raised durability as a concern. We now have an expensive floor that requires constant babying and continues to scratch despite our care.
