INTERIOR DESIGN SERVICES FOR RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES INCLUDING COMPLETE DESIGN THROUGH TO CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION.
The scope of the entire project was large, but Ruth planned each part of the job so that we were disrupted as little as possible. I have worked with contractors in the past for remodeling projects, but this was by far the best experience. Ruth and I reviewed all of the choices to be made as well as the scheduling of the work. She brought a group of skilled craftsmen to do the work. Even though the project took quite a while, we are very happy with the results. I would definitely recommend her work!
Description of Work: Over the course of two years Ruth remodeled our entire condo -- kitchen, three bathrooms, all floors, window treatments, paint, furniture, etc.

Ruth designed the remodel of my condo and then redecorated the entire unit. She oversaw all the construction and helped select all the furnishings, art, etc. once the condo was completed. Ruth is a brilliant designer. She is unbelievably creative and worked extremely well with my needs both financially and creatively. She also dealt with vendors and workmen very well. I would hire her again, and again if the need arose and have highly recommended her to others.

Ruth is great. She is full of good ideas, while still being very cognizant of her client's wishes and tastes. She is incredibly professional and also personable and enjoyable to be around. Her attention to detail and organization skills are very helpful and reassuring.
Description of Work: After buying a house that had been long neglected, I knew we needed some design guidance. We did an immediate transformation by having the entire interior re-painted, guided by Ruth's advice about the paint colors. When it was time to remodel our main bathroom, Ruth guided me through the process. She gave me lots of ideas and options and helped me decide on the layout and color scheme. She suggested adding wainscot, which really completes the look; and I never would have thought of that. She took all the measurements and wrote out a detailed description of all work to be completed. That was very helpful, both for my reference and for the vendors. She also helped me shop for fabric for custom drapes. She took all measurements and outlined exactly

In light of my desire to get the house on the market quickly, Ruth was able to re-arrange her labor to accommodate me, which was appreciated more than she knows. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do, and she brought some more great suggestions to bring my ideas to life. We spent the first couple days shopping for tile and fixtures. Time from first demolition to finish was just over two weeks...very impressive. Her contractor kept the house clean and doors closed (pets in the house), and did really good work. Ruth was there every day that work was going on to stay on top of any unwelcome surprises (there were few). The result was a very handsome bath, done for a reasonable number, that attracted a lot of good notice during the time the house was on the market. It was due in large part to the final product that the house sold for very near its asking price in a tough market. Thanks, Ruth!!
Description of Work: Ruth supervised the remodel of a garish, wallpaper covered '70's bathroom (about 70sf) in a '20's home in advance of its sale 18 months ago. No major floorplan changes due to time and circumstance, but on relatively short notice, she came in and retiled the entire bathroom (shower, floor and walls), replaced all plumbing fixtures except the bathtub, and found new lighting fixtures at all. It turned the "Brady Bunch" bathroom into a room that brought great response during its time on the market.

After several initial meetings, Ruth came back with drawings, research and samples of materials to use for the kitchen and baths. Once the designs were signed off on, Ruth worked extensively with the contractors to make sure that her designs were implemented to code and to her satisfaction. I don't remember a day when she was not on site answering questions and overseeing the construction. Even having to change contractors half way through, she maintained her professionalism, calm and sense of humor. I have also been impressed with her commitment to any follow up trouble shooting that I've needed on appliances etc. She is incredibly organized which has meant that her files and notes relating to the project are easily accessible and comprehensive. All in all it was a fantastic experience working with Ruth's company and the contractors she employs and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Description of Work: Ruth Bracegirdle was recommended to me by a colleague when I was looking to renovate my home. After working with other designers in the past, it was a great relief to find someone who's level of professionalism and incredible eye for detail, also included working in a collaborative manner. From the outset it was apparent that one of Ruth's great talents was her innate ability to understand my desires and translate them into her designs. I had initially requested using my own contractor who Ruth worked remarkably well with until we realized that the quality of his work was largely sub-standard. Without any great delay or drama, Ruth was able to replace him with one of her own trusted contractors and the job was completed to my great satisfaction. I know have a beautiful gourmet kitchen and 2 stunning bathrooms that look straight out of a magazine.
