Interior Designers & House Decorators in Etobicoke

September 18, 2012

“Gabriele has worked on two different projects in my home. She was always punctual for our meetings and she delivered products on schedule. She gave great advice regarding painting, window and floor coverings. Together we selected furniture, fabric coverings and accessories for my home. Gabriele had a very good sense of what I was looking for and did not try to suggest changes that would not suit my lifestyle. She always worked within my budget. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Gabriele. She is very professional and so excited to see her customers happy with the completed project. I recently contacted Gabriele to ask about a paint colour that had been used in my home in the past. She returned my call immediately and was pleased to answer my questions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gabriele to assist others with their decorating needs.”

“Recently I purchased my first apartment with my boyfriend. Because I had never decorated my own place before I was very confused with colour choices and on what wall each colour should be on. Lori was beyond the most helpful, patient and knowledgeable interior decorate I have ever come across. She explained to me how the sun can come in at certain angles making the colour choices I picked looking very different than the colour samples. Because of her she made our apartment feel like a home rather than a stepping stone till our next place. I couldn’t have done it without her help!”

Her designs are both elegant and comfortable. We are now going to be starting our third project with them ~ our family room ~ and are so excited to see the end result. I just know we'll love it.”

Hiring an Interior Designer in Etobicoke, ON

If you're planning a large home improvement project, remodel, or new build, hiring a general contractor is a crucial decision. These professionals manage all aspects of construction projects to ensure timely completion and client satisfaction.

General contractors in Etobicoke, also known as project managers, oversee the entire construction or remodeling process. They collaborate with architects to review plans, arrange permits and inspections, and manage day-to-day operations. While they may handle some tasks like carpentry directly, they primarily coordinate specialized subcontractors for services such as electrical work, plumbing, and painting.

When selecting a general contractor, thoroughly evaluate their bids, timing, and pricing. Unusual variations in cost estimates may indicate premium charges or deliberate underbidding. Always check references, read reviews, and visit completed projects. Once you choose an Etobicoke contractor, carefully review the contract to ensure clear alignment on project expectations.

How long have you been in business and what similar projects have you completed?

Can you provide references and proof of licensing and insurance?
How do you handle pricing, including changes and budget overruns?
What is your project timeline and what will you need from me?

What is your payment schedule and deposit requirement?
What warranties or guarantees do you offer on completed work?
How do you handle disputes or issues during construction?
What is the typical timeline for a project like mine?
