They were very respectful, tentative and communicated during no every aspect of the reno. They were very receptive to some concerns and made sure they were addressed to our satisfaction. The end product was the ensuite of our dreams! **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thanks for the great review and for being willing to step outside of the box with us. It's always a pleasure working with you and your husband. Enjoy! **★★★★★ — Mick Brown, Feb. 2018** > Tracy was able to work out a meaningful solution to our combined budget limitations vs. what we needed to have done and what we wanted to have done in our new (\>100 year-old) house. Not only that but she was then able to come up with workable solutions and then take charge of overseeing the various contractors that were selected (mainly on her recommendation) such that the work could progress according to our time frames. We were pleased with all of the work that was done and all of the contractors used and are delighted with our now beautiful kitchen and bedroom. **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thank you so much for your kind words Mick. Older homes can be both a treasure and a challenge at times but the end result was wonderful. A lovely new kitchen and a master suite for you and your family to enjoy. It was my pleasure to work with you on this project. **★★★★★ — Cherylene Stimers, Jan. 2018** > I hired Tracy Laqua to assist me in designing my kitchen renovation and help with all the product choices involved as well as color selction. She takes into account her client's vision, practical function, comfort level and budget, which all contribute to the overall success of a homeowner's dream. I appreciate the level of professionalism, expertise and resources that pull a project together smoothly. My new kitchen is stunning! I recommend Tracy to all my real estate clients when they are considering a project; and she's my "go to" stager. Now it's time to save up for my next project! **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thanks so much for your kind words Cherylene. It was such a pleasure to work with you on another project for your home. Your new kitchen is bright and cheerful - a true reflection of you. Enjoy! **★★★★★ — Amy Loewen, Oct. 2017** > Tracy is professional and responsive. She worked closely with us to ensure we were happy with every detail. She happily sourced several options for us and provided guidance while keeping our preferences in mind. She was diligent in making sure that we were satisfied clients. Our space is now beautiful and functional. **★★★★★ — Christel Wintels, Oct. 2017** > I had the privilege of working with Tracy on a kitchen and bathroom renovation. > We had a very firm budget and Tracy was able to create our dream spaces while staying within our budget. It took a lot of creativity. Tracy was tireless in finding the products and finishes to achieve exactly the look we had in mind. > I highly recommend working with Tracy. She has great ideas and suggestions. She's practical. She listens. She takes a vision and makes it reality. **★★★★★ — Ahmad Liaqat, Aug. 2017** > Full of energy and ideas, Tracy has been an amazing person to work with on our interior and exterior projects. Tracy has completed an interior design for our unfinished basement which will be converted into a beautiful in-law suite, and is currently working on an exterior design for our back yard. Tracy is full of ideas and asks the right questions to discover our needs and desires. Thank you for the excellent work so far. **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thanks so much Ahmad. It's a pleasure to work with you and Saira. **★★★★★ — Janet Jamieson, Dec. 2016** > When I met with Tracy we discussed what I wanted to change in my home as well as the limited budget I had. Tracy performed a mini miracle ! She helped take me "out of my comfort zine' ( as I'd hoped) and gave me a home reflective of me .Initially I wanted to paint the wooden staircase in the entry which would have been over my budget. Her use of colour helped create a foyer that is now the focal point on entry ; the colour also enhances the wooden staircase My galley kitchen felt dark and I thought my only recourse was to paint the cupboards. With Tracy's guidance, we decided that changing the counter tops and backsplash could create the bright ( and beautiful) kitchen I wanted,while keeping within my budget. She helped to reconfigure a room to make it multipurpose and had it painted a colour that makes me smile. The powder room used to have a cavernous feel to it and she convinced me to have a wall painted a dark brown which made all the difference. Tracy and her associate sourced the kitchen products for me to choose from at home. The contractors she hired for painting, tiling, quartz countertop installation were all professional and > punctual. > Tracy really listened to me and worked with me to create a home I'm proud of with colours I love- on budget and on time. I have nothing but praise for her and highly recommend her. It was a pleasure to work with her. **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Janet. Thank you so much for your kind words. It was such a pleasure to work with you. Talk soon. **★★★★ — Tracey Gula, Aug. 2016** > Tracy was respectful, honest, resourceful, and had very practical design ideas for our home and our kitchen. She had options for us to consider and her design ideas transformed our kitchen space to suit our needs. Tracy was involved in as much or as little as we needed to meet our budget with this project completion. Her communication with us was excellent and she was always available during the construction stage of our kitchen. **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thank you Tracey for the great review. It was a pleasure to work with you and your husband on this project. **★★★★★ — stacey\_sherwood, Aug. 2016** > Cabinets and colours and carpets - oh my! Where do you start? From planning to completion, the experience and expertise in-exteriors brought to our whole home renovation was invaluable. Trades (electrician, tiling, painting, etc.) secured by in-exteriors were skilled, clean and respectful. Our project came in on time and on budget and we are thrilled with the results. Thank you Tracy! **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thank you Stacey! Our goal is to provide excellent service from concept to completion and "on time and on budget" is part of our commitment to our clients. I think we touched every room in your home to one degree or another. Such a great project with exceptional clients. **★★★★★ — Karen Falls, Aug. 2016** > Tracy has a great eye for design and colour. There are so many decisions to be made when renovating and Tracy has the contacts and suppliers to make those choices easily and within budget. We love our new bathroom, the second she has done for us. **Comment from In-ex-teriors:** > Thank you Karen. We have worked on a few projects together over the past several years. You and your husband are wonderful clients and so much fun to work with on each and every project. I am truly blessed to have you as a client. ## Selected projects - [Canterbury Bungalow](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canterbury-bungalow-pj-vj~6807479) - Location: Hamilton, ON - Photos: 8 - [Townsend](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/townsend-pj-vj~6380402) - Location: Burlington, ON - Photos: 11 - [Farmhouse Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmhouse-addition-pj-vj~4131004) - Location: Hamilton, ON - Photos: 10 - Description: This farmhouse addition was an absolute joy to work on.

Additional seating at the island provides a place for gr… - [Oakville Master Suite](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/oakville-master-suite-pj-vj~2742375) - Location: Oakville, ON - Photos: 9 - Description: This project was so much fun! This growing family of 3 wanted to transform their open-concept master suite by updating the ensuite. With carefully selected finishes and colour palettes to move them from dark and dreary to bright and beautiful.
