I did a full kitchen, cabinet and countertop renovation, as well as, renovations and redesigns of my living room, dining area, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. She also helped design parts of the exterior of my house with lighting and paint color selection. What stood out from the first day I started working with Erin is that she is absolutely passionate about what she does. She truly cares about bringing the vision you have for your home to life. She is timely and extremely communicative. She works seamlessly with the contractor to ensure everything is completed in a timely manner, and in the exact way in which she designed it. There were never any surprises working with her, and she was so intuitive in crafting her design ideas around my preferences. The way my home turned out far exceeded my expectations. The day I walked into my home and saw everything completed, it literally brought tears to my eyes. I will work with Erin on every home project moving forward, and I highly recommend anyone reading this review to do the same. She is simply the best. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Hi Paul - Thanks for sharing your renovation experience with us. We absolutely loved working on your project and valued your collaboration every step of the way. The end result is a completely transformed home that truly reflects your style. We're so grateful for your trust and can't wait to work together again! **★★★★★ — HU-520109803, Feb. 2024** > We are so happy we selected Surfside Home Co for our remodel. Erin is an amazing designer with an incredible eye and impeccable taste. Every detail is addressed thoughtfully and creatively ensuring every space is connected and yet unique. She knows how to manage schedules and budgets as well! Her soft and pleasant demeanor is complimented by her can do attitude. Her East Coast assistant Amy is also a delight. They both will make your dreams come true! **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Helen and Steve - Thank you for sharing your experience. This sums up our time together, balancing schedules and budgets while simultaneously working on the creative and fun aspects of bringing your beach home to life! We are happy that you chose us to be part of the big vision. Thanks again! **★★★★★ — HU-288044082, Jan. 2024** > We recently renovated our beach rental home and are thrilled we chose Erin from Surfside Design Co. Erin’s expertise truly shone in her ability to transform our ideas into a stunning ‘surf Scandinavian’ beach interior. She was especially adept at creating spaces that are both open and cozy, achieving a perfect balance. Erin’s recommendations, like the unique, hand-carved wood mantle over our fireplace, were not just visually stunning but also very functional. > > Working with Erin remotely was seamless. She regularly updated us and managed every detail meticulously, making us feel confident even though we were miles away. Her professionalism extended to timely completions and transparent budget management, which was invaluable for us as out-of-town homeowners. > > The final result is a home that not only reflects our vision but enhances it. Our guests frequently compliment the inviting and innovative design elements, and we find our beach house more enjoyable than ever. Erin, along with her colleague Amy, were consistently excited, professional, and trustworthy throughout the project. Their talent is evident in every corner of our home. We eagerly anticipate our next project with Erin and highly recommend Surfside Design Co to anyone looking to create a beautiful and functional space. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Sarah - I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with you and collaborate on your home. Your feedback has made us happy to know that you had a positive experience with us. We particularly loved the coastal vibes that your home emanated and the new updates that you have made. They give your home a unique and refreshing feel. Thank you again for choosing us! **★★★★★ — Erika Cook, Dec. 2023** > Working with Erin at Surfside Home Co. has been an absolute pleasure! We worked as a team for many years and reunited once we both started our own business's. Understanding each others strengths and delegating accordingly, for the main goal is always a clean beautiful thought out design with even the smallest details in mind. Anticipating errors and putting actions in place to make sure nothing is overlooked. Erin has so much knowledge and a passion for her projects that stands out in her designs. Clients trust her because she has absolutely earned it. I highly recommend using her for your Interior Design needs, you won't regret it! **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Erika - I am beyond grateful that you and I have worked together for so many years and always find the perfect balance to make projects happen seamlessly. This is a perfect pairing, and I value the guidance and dedication that you bring to each client's home that we have been a part of. The "E Team" is as strong as ever! **★★★★★ — Frank, Sept. 2023** > Erin did a wonderful job remodeling our kitchen, master bathroom, and guest bathroom. > The results were absolutely wonderful. We immediately had a dinner party to show everything off, and got all sorts of compliments! > Erin was also very easy to work with. She is incredibly responsive, incredibly nice, and also very organized, which made everything easy. > Her initial design selections were exactly what we asked for. She gave us two or three options for every item, and all were on point. There was an issue where one of the vendors shipped a defective product, and she handled everything promptly as well and got it all resolved. > She is also very thoughtful with regard to her selections. I have worked with designers in the past that do not spend money like their own money with regard to their design selections. Erin is a smart shopper! Overall a great experience and I strongly recommend working with Erin. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Hi Frank - Thank you for the opportunity to help refresh an already gorgeous home! It was fun to see the change and work alongside you to keep everything practical, functional and aesthetically in line with the original architecture, while adding your own thoughtful updates. Appreciate the note, it was a pleasure. Thanks again! **★★★★★ — Diana Langston, Aug. 2023** > Erin had me at "hello"......years ago! I remember being so taken with her soft spoken easy manner, her ability to tune into me from the start and to capture my taste with an effortlessness that amazed me. She helped with completely "uplifting" the living room....bringing fabrics from just one meeting that I responded to instantly and reflected my taste definitively. From then on, it became a pleasure to have her help with various projects...each and every one has been exactly what I envisioned, Her insightfulness and method of embracing each situation with total focus is so appreciated. Erin is the best designer one could ask for...I am greatful and thankful to have her support, help and friendship. Very highly recommend her services and always anticipate our next endeavor! **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Diana - Thank you for the kind words! It has been a great honor working together throughout the years and seeing the updates in various part of your beautiful home. Also, my gratitude for a friendship that has developed as a result. It has and continues to be a true joy! Thanks again for having me! **★★★★★ — Julie Bingol, April 2023** > How lucky we were to find Erin and Surfside Home Co! After renting out our vacation home for many years, the time had come to renovate in anticipation of our retirement and the opportunity to spend a lot more time in the Outer Banks. Erin created a beautiful design for our kitchen and living areas that captured our love of international travel and also the NC coast where we have spent so many family vacations. Along with her fabulous design, all the project details from bidding to contractor oversight to product delivery was seamless! Her team executed the plan perfectly, keeping us informed all along the way which we so appreciated since we were not on-site ourselves. We look forward to working with her again on our future projects! **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Julie - We loved working with you every step of the way! What an honor to share this portion of the journey with you and see the inspiration come to life in your beach house. It is ready for the next set of gatherings and fun memories for you and your family and friends! Thank you for enlisting our help. Amy and I are excited about what is next! **★★★★★ — Jessica Rienerth, Oct. 2022** > We absolutely love working with Surfside Home Co. Erin has now helped us through a bathroom remodel, a kitchen remodel and a redecoration of our dining room and primary bedroom. She has always listened to our vision and delivered budget appropriate solutions that look fantastic in our home. Erin puts her client's vision first, and lays out optionality so clearly. She kept us updated through out the entire project and followed through every step of the way. Erin and her team go above and beyond for their clients, which allows you to just soak in the joy that is your new space. I LOVE being in our space and am so grateful for Erin's help. We recommend her to anyone who is considering design support! **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Jessica - Thank you so much for having us on board for the re-imagined spaces. We love your home and how the new spaces turned out. They have the best feeling! So happy to have been a part of this venture with you and Justin. Can't wait to hear what's next! **★★★★★ — Maureen O'Grady, July 2022** > The best decision I made with regards my home, was asking Erin to be my designer. She has an extraordinary gift that transcends her training and experience. She is able to translate a few simple thoughts into a dream, lifestyle design. Erin’s process is also stress-free, I never worried about logistics or quality. I am looking forward to my next project with her, may it be soon. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Maureen - I am beyond thankful we had the opportunity to work together on your new space. It was such a unique experience to be involved in the same home with two different owners in a four year span. Most importantly, I love how the surroundings reflect you and your refined and elevated sense of style. Thank you for allowing me to be part of this beautiful vision. Looking forward to the upper level next! **★★★★★ — PETER FRIKKER, July 2022** > Working with Erin has been a dream come true. We live in Central PA and have owned an investment property on the Outer Banks that, after 20 years, was looking a little tired. Erin came in and did her magic, far exceeding our expectations. She listened to what we wanted to accomplish and then proceeded to put together a plan which achieved everything we set out to do. Her enthusiasm, creativity and attention to detail was absolutely amazing. More importantly, she is a woman of her word. She delivered in every way, if she said she would do something, you could consider it done. The best thing I can say about Erin is that she can be trusted. From start to finish, she delivered. Knowing we can work remotely is a real plus and we will use her again and again and again. She is highly recommended. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Peter - Thank you for entrusting me with your vision! Amy and I enjoyed working alongside you to create a new ambiance for your beach home. It was a wonderful experience pulling all the details together. The property is especially beautiful and with your goal of updating it, it really stands out as its own haven now. Onto the next area! Thanks again! **★★★★★ — Renee George, June 2022** > We absolutely loved working with Erin and Surfside Home Co! Erin designed our San Diego master bedroom and main bathroom. We loved her modern, minimal, and coastal aesthetic. Our bedroom now has a calm and serene vibe and feels like a tranquil sanctuary within our home. The bathroom is every thing we asked for and both beautiful and functional. We really liked that Erin worked with us to pick out artwork that fit our aesthetic and was meaningful to us. The process itself was a breeze--Erin was prompt, organized, and listened to our ideas (which were often vague), gave us multiple options to choose from, communicated with our local contractors, and managed the whole process from start to end, all while being remote. We highly recommend Surfside Home Co and hope to use Erin for any and all future design decisions in our home. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Renee - It has been such a pleasure seeing your spaces come together over the last year. The bedroom and bathroom are such thoughtful parts of your home, it feels like they truly belong to your family. I loved working on the creative aspects with you as well as the technical along the way. Thank you both for the opportunity. I am thoroughly enjoying what we are embarking on next! **★★★★★ — HU-501388321, Jan. 2022** > Erin brought our vision to life! From the first conversation we had with Erin on remodeling our downstairs, we knew we wanted her to be a part of it. She understood what was important to us. She was instrumental in not only helping with the design but helping secure a contractor, ordering of items, and keeping the project on the rails. We are beyond happy with our new downstairs space and we are grateful to Erin for making it a reality. **Comment from Surfside Home Co.:** > Lindsay - Thrilled to have been a part of such a great vision! It was a team effort and you were beyond wonderful to work with each step of the way to keep it on the rails together. It all paid off! Thanks for allowing me to play a part. Enjoy the new space! ## Selected projects - [Mt Soledad II](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mt-soledad-ii-pj-vj~7572304) - Location: San Diego, CA - Photos: 15 - [Camino de la Costa II](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/camino-de-la-costa-ii-pj-vj~7572307) - Location: San Diego, CA - Photos: 11 - [Bingol Beach House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bingol-beach-house-pj-vj~7227725) - Location: Corolla, NC - Photos: 8 - Description: A second home on The Outer Banks is ready for a new chapter.

A: Thanks, Maureen! This is the Samoa fixture from Currey and Co here. **Q: Is this a steam shower?** *(in Photo Questions)* I like everything about this design. I am planning a remodel with a similar layout, but with glass mosaic tiles for the decorative tile. Would it be weird to clamp the glass panel (between shower and toilet) to the ceiling when it is not a steam shower? A: Wonderful! Glad to hear that this helped with your decision. Enjoy creating and planning for your new shower! **Q: Wall color** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you tell us what color white you used on the walls? A: Certainly! It is Moderne White by Sherwin Williams. Color code SW 6168. **Q: Who built the bookcases?** *(in Photo Questions)* I’m looking for built-in bookcases and the ones shown here are lovely. Could you tell me who built them? Thank you, Ruth Chandler A: Hi there! California Closets initially built the bookcases. We modified them during the project with a local cabinetmaker. **Q: Wine fridge color** *(in Photo Questions)* Hello, how did you get the wine fridge to be the same color as the cabinets? Can you share the wine fridge that you purchased? A: Hello! Thank you for your question. This a panel-ready fridge. The cabinetmaker made the panel to match the cabinetry's style and finish/color. We no longer have the model \# or specs for this particular unit. **Q: Cabinet Color** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you please tell me what paint color was used on these cabinets? Thank you! A: Hello! The cabinets are painted Indigo Batik by Sherwin Williams, SW 7602. Thanks! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-13.*
