Here's a few common questions typically asked at Saratoga...

When should I use a design professional?
Before you make a mistake… A professional designer should be there to assist you even if you are just starting the thoughts of a decoration project. I like to work with the client from the very beginning. It is a lot easier, and less expensive to correct a mistake on paper than after is has been ordered or built.

What should I know before contacting you?
I think it is always best if you are able to drive to the showroom and see what we have to offer and what we can do for you. Some people like to check references and look at examples of work. If you do this, please keep in mind that a designer designs for the client and not all clients will have the same taste you have.

What if I have my own design ideas?
A well developed plan would always consist of ideas from the client. In fact, the entire plan should be based on the lifestyle of the people using the room. What works for me with my needs are certainly not going to work for everyone. Of course, I think all designers have special things they find that work and that they like to use over and over again. This might be a certain paint color or a really comfy chair or a special fabric but no two clients are exactly alike and therefore no two design plans are either.

What is your timeline for delivery?
At the moment, draperies are taking the longest taking the longest amount of time…approximately 12 weeks. Furniture is 3 - 8, depending upon the company. Allow 3 months for a fairly good size project to be completed. If you decide to buy from stock (we have over 6,000 square feet of beautiful stuff) you could have it in a few days.
