Ask important questions when you meet with your interior designers:

  • Can you offer referrals? (It makes a big difference to talk with a client who's worked with the designer before.)
  • Can I see your design portfolio?
  • Always insist on project start and completion dates.
  • Do you charge an hourly rate or a flat rate, or use the cost-plus method or a mixed method?
  • Written agreements protect both parties. Always insist on a contract with signatures.
