“I hired Karen to guide the remodeling of two bathrooms. I had a good idea of what I wanted, but needed her design sense to pull it together and her experience to find the materials (cabinets, tile, etc.) to accomplish that look. Karen was great at listening and making sure she knew what I wanted. She also made sure that she understood my budget, and worked with me to achieve it. She had no problem limiting her work, and allowing me to do some of it to help with the cost. She made great recommendations, but was never pushy with her opinions. She located a number of possibilities for tiles and cabinets to choose from that would give me the look I wanted. She brought them over, and we laid them out, propped them up, etc., until I was able to make the choice. She drew up the design so everything would work together, and made sure that everything would meet code. She looked in regularly as the construction progressed to make sure it was coming together as specified, and consulted with the work crew to iron out any issues. I couldn’t be happier with how the bathrooms turned out.”
“This past summer we were looking to update our kitchen and hired Karen Warner to help us with this project. Besides helping us choose new counters, appliances, and lighting, she made an important recommendation regarding our kitchen island that ended up improving the overall function of our kitchen.
Karen noticed that our large island was positioned too close to the outer counters, creating conflict with the cooktop, sink, and dishwasher. Her suggestion of moving the island has made our kitchen a more enjoyable space to work.
Another area that Karen suggested changing was the lighting. What an incredible difference this made, particularly in really showcasing the beautiful granite countertop.
She is very thorough and easy to reach when you need to ask questions. She has a wealth of information on appliances, counter surfaces, and will lead you to the best solution for your situation. Karen was with us every step of the way as a team worker in helping us to complete the most functional and beautiful kitchen within our budget.”
