- 1. How much will it cost?
- That depends: each client comes to us
with very different needs and requires individualized attention and
services. If you simply need a faux finish or decorative painting
services, the cost will depend on the size of the room, the complexity
or number of layers involved in the finish, the supplies necessary, and
the amount of time it will take to apply them. Design services and
products are calculated separately and are also determined by the
complexity of the job requirements.
- 2. Can you be here to
install next
week?
- Probably not. Typically, Eglantine
House is booked out eight weeks in advance, although there is time in
each week scheduled for meetings with current and new clients to
discuss projects and present proposals. In the event of a cancellation,
we will call our scheduled clients and offer to move up their
appointments. On rare occasions, we can accommodate rush jobs for an
additional fee.
- 3. Where do you work?
- Pleasure happens everywhere, and
wherever pleasure is, it needs good design!
- 4. Do you have a policy on
privacy?
- Absolutely. Your privacy and
confidence are our biggest concerns. Helping you design and create your
intimate spaces requires a relationship built on trust. That
relationship starts with your initial phone call or e-mail, and we will
keep all contact and communication from that point on confidential
whether you chose to use our services or not.
We never share or sell your name,
email, or contact information with any other company or entity.
5. What can a designer do
for me?
- We help you in variety of ways: we
hunt down hard-to-find pieces of furniture; we educate you about your
various options in every aspect of design from choosing a discrete
contractor, to picking colors, and choosing products; we help you
understand how you might integrate those items into your environment,
use them, and care for them.
We can also act as a buffer between you and potentially embarrassing
situations. Once you’ve chosen a contractor, you can defer
all delicate questions and instructions to us. Instead of going to a
hardware store and trying to ask for advice on suspension supports or
if you need a ground-fault interrupt for your electrical needs, we do
that for you. We are dedicated to helping our clients achieve their
fantasy interior, and we are glad to ask difficult questions on their
behalf.
