People are often willing to spend a signifi cant amount of money on their remodeling projects , but don ’ t want to pay the additional 5 to 10 percent for the cost of a designer . In the end , this extra expense is typically absorbed into the trade discounts a designer receives . Their expertise and advice can also make a huge impact on the overall look , feel and functionality of the new space . They can give a project that “ wow ” factor that one is hoping for , as well as help avoid the pitfalls that inevitably come up along the way .
Design advice is valuable , which , along with a great contractor , provides the customer with a resourceful and experienced team , resulting in a smooth process and a beautiful new space that will bring many years of enjoyment .
