Client Testimonial…

“I went shopping for tile for a master bath and kitchen remodel on my own before I met Marissa. I had ideas of what I liked but could not put it together and was unable to choose a thing. Marissa and I spent a day shopping and she was able to explain how everything would fit together. We picked out everything in one day - tile for the shower, floor, backsplash, granite for the countertops and even paint color!

We have a mix of traditional and more contemporary furnishings and she was able to make suggestions on how to make it all work together. Marissa is very knowledgeable and she explains why she makes the suggestions that she does, which is very helpful. I highly recommend her!”
