Dee Hurford Designs

Our project was a pretty large one - a new kitchen and family room, movement of our laundry area to another room in the house, and a bedroom improvement. We could not have done it without Dee Hurford. Dee researched contractors and found us one that was terrific. She helped to keep them on track and was a true asset when questions arose. Dee helped us choose cabinetry, counters, flooring, lighting, rugs, and coffee tables. We are so thrilled with the results and have Dee, her practical experience, and especially her artistic vision to thank. Thank you Dee!

I found Dee Hurford Designs very professional. She helped me with a color consult as well as rug selections. She promptly returned all calls and emails. I would highly recommend her to anyone without any reservations. I look forward to working with her again.

I was referred to Dee Hurford by a realtor. Just moved from Boston to Kennett Square townhouse. We were presented with an offer for free consultation and 30% discount on all furniture. Dee advised us that she works on one project at a time, we discussed budget and scoping down the design to two levels of the townhouse. We emphasized that we were looking for an interior designer to help us keep things simple, calming and inviting. Dee spent a lot of time measuring our spaces. In hindsight, this should have given me a hint. She was less interested in our needs, interests and what we already had. She presented us with a design way over budget, the design was not for the space discussed and charged us design fees that were higher than a vacation week at Disney for three. When she mentioned her hourly rate I almost fell off my seat. It is more than an experienced professional engineer in their peak. What was astonishing was there was nothing creative about her design - she is all about expensive fabric and upholstering. I don't need an interior designer to tell me I need counter stools under the counter or bench in the entry way. I can figure it out myself. I need an interior designer to figure how I can design my home for MY needs with the latest tools/techniques not the most expensive tools and techniques. Dee seemed to be about the most expensive items. She has put me off hiring an interior designer for a decade. I am not sure where the offer for free consultation or discount furniture went, I had to eat an enormous design fee for a design that was someone else's house, not mine. Dee is very meticulous and detail oriented about what is important to her, not the client. (By the way she was not up to date on the latest paint, I had to ask her to research the latest ratings on paint)

Dee was very professional and easy to work with. She worked hard to understand my style and what I wanted. I love my new room!

This was my first experience using a decorator. The double parlor of our 200 year old farmhouse needed updating, and I needed help dealing with all the windows and doors. We had hardly used one of the parlors because I couldn’t figure how to place the furniture to create two areas that flowed into each other. Not only did Dee create the perfect design, but she also came up with a beautiful color scheme. I kept about half of my existing peices. Dee made all the reupholstry arrangements, which turned out beyond expectations. She saw to the ordering, delivery, and set-up of everything else. It was a great experience, and we are left with a lovely space which we enjoy more everyday. I highly recommend Dee Hurford Designs.

We hired Dee Hurford designs for our home interior decor. Dee was very professional and yet friendly. We felt that she was part of our family and had helped us with all the decor and design selections like wall colors, window treatments, appropriate rugs size and colors, furniture sizes and placement. She helped us even after the project completion and we are still in touch with her. Gem of a person ! We knew what we wanted in terms of our home decor and Dee’s ideas and suggestions were icing on the cake. We love our home and we get complements on interior decoration from others too. We would definately hire her again for our future projects.

Dee Hurford was the fourth designer I turned to when I decided to redo our 12 year old master bathroom. I am glad I chose her. Our former builder-grade bath is now a beautiful, modern-looking bathroom. Dee understood quickly what style I wanted. She made good suggestions, brought me samples to approve, and posted options on Houzz. I didn't have to spend time going to showrooms. She quickly organized several contractors to give quotes, and together we decided which to use. Best of all, Dee worked within the budget I set. Recently I recommended her to one of my real estate clients; he let me know he was very satisfied with her advice. I highly recommend Dee for your next home design project.

Dee remodeled our bathroom, and it's absolutely gorgeous. We get compliments all the time! I liked the way she took charge and let us know what she thought about the design space.

I have worked with Mrs. Hurford on multiple projects, and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing some interior design help! She is very professional and keeps herself updated on the newest trends.

The entire experience was great! First, you get a free consultation where she asks what I was looking for, i.e. what colors, what design, what type of items I'm looking to add to my home, etc. She then lays out her entire plan and goes to work. I already had all my major furniture. I needed her help with everything else in my new home. Everything she went out and purchased was perfect. But if I didn't like something, she would simply return it. She offered to let me going shopping with her, but I passed on that because I trusted her opinion and skills 100%. Communication during the entire project was excellent. And the best thing about the entire experience was the price. Dee doesn't try to jack up the price on you. I set the budget at all times and she stays within your budget, whatever you choose. She bought amazing items at ridiculously low prices. I can't say enough about how pleased I am with the final product. She obviously has a ton of experience and loves what she does. I promise you she'll exceed your expectations because she is passionate about what she does. Go with Dee Hurford. You'll be happy you did!

Dee is amazing!!! She is professional and has an incredible way of balancing what we wanted our master bedroom to feel and look like as well as the total master bathroom redo. She is always budget conscience. She always comes to my house with a smile and ready to get to work. This was the 5th and 6th room she has designed for us. I'm bummed to be running out of spaces for her to make awesome! I highly recommend Dee Hurford Designs.

Dee Hurford is very professional and easy to work with. She is very knowledgable and has a good sense of what kind of look we were going for. Dee was respectful of our budget and went above and beyond to make sure we were able to meet our renovation deadlines. I would definitely recommend Dee to friends and hope to work together again in the future.
