She gave me so many ideas and made beautiful shades and pillows for my bedroom. She and her design team created and installed picture frame moulding for my dining room in just a few hours. I am already working with her on the next project. **★★★★★ — Kate Queen, May 2016** > We have worked with Denise and Tab for almost 20 years, on projects and renovations for numerous residential and commercial properties, and results have ALWAYS exceeded expectations. Their work ethic and quality of work are exceptional. When 'm beginning a project, I'll include them at the planning stage because they often had great ideas for how to make improvements for design, function, or to warn about possible trouble-spots that we can address before we start. > > I think the best part for me is that they are a ONE-stop-shop: custom window treatments, slip covers, bedding; wallcovering installations, interior/exterior painting (decorative finishings, too!), custom murals; wood flooring installations, etc. They've done complete remodeling projects: media rooms, bedrooms, garage, playrooms. > > They were a lifesaver when they swooped in to do repair work after water/fire damage. Living in coastal VA, house maintenance is constant battle due to salty air and big storms. After all these years, Tab knows our home and has us on a schedule for pressure washing, trim painting, repair/replace items possibly damaged in storm season. I don't worry about our home losing value because it is properly maintained and cared for by this great team. After a big hurricane or winter nor'easter, Tab knows our home and will check in to make sure everything is "ship shape." They care about their clients. With any project, I only make one call, and it's Designs by Denise! **Comment from Designs by Denise:** > Thank you Kate ! We appreciate your sweet review . You have always been such a pleasure to work with . Thank you so much ! **★★★★★ — Morag Richards, May 2016** > aI would never hesitate to use the company. I have used them for over 25 years and have yet to be disappointed and have recommended them to many, many people who all feel the same way. We are lucky to have them. ## Selected projects - [Bright White Cabinets](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bright-white-cabinets-pj-vj~2116415) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - Description: Our client had us paint a bright white over the wood cabinets to give it an updated look. - [Screened Porch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/screened-porch-pj-vj~2116422) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - Description: These photos are of a screened porch we painted.
