### Reviews

**★★★★★ — jlpettinga, June 2025**

> I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sarah Steinberg on two very different projects—a city condo in Portland and a lakefront camp in Belgrade—and she brought the same outstanding qualities to both. Sarah is a true professional: creative, practical, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with.
>
> Her designs are both beautiful, timeless and functional, perfectly tailored to each space and my lifestyle. She collaborated seamlessly with our builder, Wright-Ryan, ensuring the process was smooth and efficient from start to finish. Sarah is not only talented and accessible, but also brings a fun, positive energy that makes the entire design experience enjoyable.
>
> I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for thoughtful, well-executed design work and a partner who truly listens and delivers.

**★★★★★ — julieleary37, Nov. 2024**

> We worked with Sarah on a recent renovation project at our condo in Kennebunk. When we purchased our condo we knew it needed a major upgrade and a second bathroom added in a fairly small space. Sarah took the task and not only delivered, but far exceeded all our expectations. The second bathroom was added and the rest of the living space felt much larger, open and highly functional. Sarah’s execution was incredible, she worked closely with our general contractor throughout the entire project, and then worked with the design and decor team, offering valuable input and advice. Sarah is a true professional and we are so happy we chose to work with her! We absolutely love our newly designed space!

**★★★★★ — Zoltan Csimma, Oct. 2024**

> Sarah Steiberg has been a lifesaver! We have a great deal of experience with architects, designers, and contractors as we have upgraded several homes in New England and California during the past few years. We have worked with Sarah on projects at our primary New England home in Lincoln, MA. She designed our shared office, our newly redone Master Bath, and our downstairs apartment. We could not have been happier with the results and with very competitive pricing. Sarah has a nice personal style which allows her to extract important client perspectives. She then works very effectively with various contractors and other trades people.
> She has also previously worked with us on a beachfront condominium, redesigning the entire upper floor area including a bathroom, office, bedroom and walk in closet. Clean design which totally upgraded the area to our specifications, including design concepts that we had not considered.
> Most recently, we asked Sarah to help us as we have been considering the purchase of a waterfront home in Maine. We know we can rely on her sense of design, good taste, and subtle candor!

**★★★★★ — Melissa Coulombe, Oct. 2024**

> Sarah with Steinberg Custom Designs is not only very easy to work with- but has excellent ideas and insight. Very knowledgeable of product and processes and presents great options. She was very accessible and worked well with my contractors. Will absolutely use her again for future design needs.

**★★★★★ — Luanne Zurlo, Oct. 2024**

> Outstanding work at a reasonable price. Sarah redesigned my entire downstairs and a bathroom with creativity and precision. I am thrilled with the results. I have already recommended her to others because I was so pleased.

**★★★★★ — kixxy, April 2024**

> My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Sarah on a new build project on the coast of Maine. Sarah truly exceeded our expectations in every way. Her professionalism and keen attention to detail ensured every aspect of the project was executed flawlessly. She effortlessly navigated any problems that arose along the way and stayed engaged and connected during the entire project. Her sense of humor and ability to put us at ease when we were feeling overwhelmed made the process enjoyable from start to finish. Her kindness and genuine concern for our satisfaction truly set her apart. We are so very grateful to her for her help with everything!

**★★★★★ — Patrick Gavin, Feb. 2024**

> We had a wonderful experience with Sarah. My wife and I are not particularly "design" minded, but we had to do a complete gut of an old kitchen in our newly purchased home. Sarah advised us from start to finish: selecting styles, colors, layout, finishes, hardware, everything. She made numerous trips over long distances to consult for the initial design, meet with our contractor, and assist with cabinet delivery. It made the process so much easier and less stressful to have her assistance. Thank you!

**★★★★★ — lesliegibbons, Dec. 2023**

> I love working with Sarah.  She knows how to translate a client's ideas into reality.  She took the time to really walk through the plans so that I knew exactly what I was getting, and she is very responsive to emails and texts. She works very efficiently and decisively and her contractors are excellent.  My project came in on time and we are thrilled with the results.  I highly recommend Sarah!

**★★★★★ — Vicki Ferentz, Dec. 2023**

> We have worked with Sarah on 3 jobs at our home. Sarah approaches every job with enthusiasm, attention to detail, and a take charge attitude. Meaning, we felt like we were in such good hands on all 3 projects. We are two busy working people and didn't have a lot of time to commit to every detail needed on renovations. She learned about our vision and budget, and brought us the details, choices and products to make each project feel manageable. We would highly recommend Steinberg Cutom Designs.

**★★★★★ — damajohns, Dec. 2023**

> We retained Sarah to help renovate a dated condo with a bad kitchen layout. She created  a gorgeous design that completely transformed the place and beautifully elevated its aesthetic appeal. She was especially masterful at maximizing storage space. We also appreciated her ideas on finishes, from floors to tile to lighting and plumbing fixtures. She worked seamlessly with our contractor and was very responsive to our needs. A very successful project!

**★★★★★ — Luanne Zurlo, Nov. 2023**

> Sarah came highly recommended as a "space expert" and she did not disappoint. I needed a creative, yet precise, mind to provide the design plans for large-scale renovations in an oddly-configured house; Sarah delivered outstanding plans, with follow-up edits, in a very timely fashion. She sees the creative possibilities of how space can be be configured and she combines this with a practical approach.

**★★★★★ — Jeff Bryant, Nov. 2023**

> Sarah was wonderful to work with.  She understood our needs, listened to our concerns, offered us great ideas and stayed in constant touch through the completion of our kitchen project. Her designs and recommendations meshed wonderfully with the style of our 200 year old home.  There was great dedication to seeing the job done to our complete satisfaction.   We LOVE our kitchen!
