I moved into a home that already had a custom master closet, which was beautiful, but did not work for me. I knew that I wanted to tear out the existing closet, and I had an idea of what I wanted to replace it with, but I wasn't sure of how to accomplish it. Tamra was very patient and had a lot of insight and was able to guide me in creating the most beautiful and functional closet that I could have imagined! Closet Factory was very easy to work with and I highly recommend Tamra! **Comment from Tamra Lenz/Closet Factory Hampton Roads:** > Deb, I appreciate your recommendation! I love my career because I get to see wonderful clients, like you, happy with their space! Thank you for the privilege. **★★★★★ — Juan Garcia, May 2017** > Closet Factory did our bedroom closet years ago and last summer I had Tamra install an additional closet space and a desk/work station to our condo. We just bought a house and had to rent our condo. We were worried it would take a long time to rent our condo being there are multiple units in our building for rent with similar layout and price. However, within 2 days of listing our unit, we received a call and the potential tenant mentioned he chose our unit specifically because of the desk/work station! We will be using Tamra's services again. She is a true professional, returns calls/emails in a timely fashion and is a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend asking directly for her! **Comment from Tamra Lenz/Closet Factory Hampton Roads:** > Juan, thank you for the testimonial. I'm so happy that our work helped you to quickly rent your condo! Looking forward to helping you organize your new home! **★★★★★ — dskline38, April 2017** > Tamra listened well to what I wanted for my smallish master closet. And boy did she deliver! Couldn't be happier with my new closet! **Comment from Tamra Lenz/Closet Factory Hampton Roads:** > Thank you so much! And I love your new light fixture! **★★★★★ — Tammy Shaia, March 2017** > I'm delighted to recommend Tamra Lenz! She helped me design my pantry (My first project!)...She was very attentive and a genuine, good listener as I described what I needed in the pantry. She has the expertise and knowledge when it comes to dimensions/measurements for any sized pantry. I am so pleased!! The walk-in pantry looks better than my kitchen!! I just LOVE walking into my new organized space. It's peaceful!! Who can say that about canned goods? > > Tamra also helped me on my second project...YES, I love working with her and couldn't wait to start a new space!!
