MG Interiors

I have always loved home design but have learned over the years after buying and selling many homes I have often regretted some of the decisions I made along the way after torturing myself about paint colors, furniture style etc. I had never thought of using an Interior Designer until a friend of mine shared pictures of her baby’s nursery! It was breathtaking and when she shared that she used Maureen to help her I decided to reach out. As soon as I met Maureen it was “interior design love at first sight” and I was sold! She has the amazing ability to take your style and vision and turn it into something beautiful all while working with whatever budget you have. She is extremely knowledgeable and thorough! I would show her items I loved from various catalogs or designers but were way too expensive for my budget and she was able to find options that looked exactly the same but at half the price! The first time I used her she was able to transform our home with our existing furniture by incorporating simple changes with inexpensive accessories, rugs and simply by moving the furniture around! A year later when we bought a 1980’s home that needed a complete gut job I knew I could not do it without her! She kept me sane the entire project and I truly got the house of my dreams. If you are lucky enough to work with Maureen the best advice I can share (coming from someone who has used her twice and has recommended her to many of my friends) is to TRUST her! Even when I was hesitant with something she picked I trusted her as the expert and loved everything she suggested!

I would not recommend this business to anyone looking for design support. My reasons are below: - [ ] Poor upfront communication on expectations and timelines and roles/responsibilities - [ ] Poor issue resolution - Owner immediately jumps to responding to emails bullet by bullet with misinformation that is absolutely backwards from what actually happened. Rather than taking into account what a client has given as feedback as being factual. Because apparently at this business the consumer/client is always wrong. - [ ] Senior designers talk down to you if your ideas don’t match what they were taught at design school using phrases such as “As you wish” and “This goes against everything we learn as a designer” - [ ] Poor response time to respond to an email, when they give you only 5 days to purchase what they suggest for you - [ ] Miscommunication between the team of designers, they said designs where ready to be reviewed when they aren’t, just not enough alignment within their teams. - [ ] Owner who will defend her employees and takes their word 100% over the client, even when I have written documentation - [ ] I was told “you aren’t our only client” when I inquired about the delay in response - [ ] Then told I was aggressive on the phone with their admin, when all I did was outline the list of issues I was having with their services. Never used a profane word or raised my voice - Was told that 20 hours of work had been put in by their admin, but then the owner came back with only 10.62 hours being worked, they weren’t even aligned on that. - [ ] Last, but certainly not least - they take a good bit of their weekly calls on the road (as i was told) If they don’t need to be in front of their screen, which is not safe and honestly for their price tag I’d love to have their full attention for the 30-60 min a week we had to discuss the project. Do yourself a favor and find an alternative design partner. You may find yourself doing most of their work for them. Also, read the contract. If you cancel services they bill you $200/hr for anything that they had done.

I’m an artist and I love decorating, but it’s really only been what I liked in previous houses. My husband’s taste is very different and we needed someone to help us figure out what those two styles looked like in harmony. Drew really nailed it! It’s such a talent to listen to a couple’s story, way of life, likes and dislikes and then turn it into a space that shows it all. Not only that, but with 3 boys at home with me I don’t have time (or the desire) to shop for furniture, let alone find the best deals- but Drew did that for us too. She gave us 2-3 options for each item with convenient links straight to buy them. She also created a detailed elevation for the built-in fireplace of our dreams so that we could give clear direction to someone local to complete it. It was worth every penny, honestly. I think we will end up saving almost double what we paid MG interiors when everything is said and done, and that’s not even factoring in all the valuable time it saved me! It was truly a pleasure working with Drew. I sincerely recommend their services for anyone wanting to maximize whatever size budget you have for your home and feel great about the end result!

Hiring MG Interiors was one of the best decisions I have ever made! We had an extensive reno planned, so we ended up needing help with several rooms. The process with MG Interiors was amazing. Maureen is very professional, yet still felt like a friend through everything. Communication was extremely thorough, and I appreciated how she thoughtfully explained each idea and rationale behind things that I (as a non-designer) didn’t “get” at first. I can honestly say that she earned my trust 100%. I do not have one single regret or negative comment about my experience. In fact, she made going through a reno process really enjoyable. And the end result....WOW! Maureen’s final design was incredible and so perfectly “us”. Our house feels like the home we always hoped it would be. It is so calming, beautiful, and clean. The perfect aesthetic that we could never have created without Maureen’s gifted talent! We are so blessed to have the opportunity to work with her and will forever be grateful to her. I would highly recommend MG Interiors!

Working with Kelly has been amazing. I believe in hiring professionals when you are unqualified and this experience exceeded my expectations. She helped me create a vision and let me execute it on my own timeline. I wish I could go back and used this service when I moved in my home. The amount of money and time I wasted designing a home I didn’t love is more than I want to admit. Kelly has a gift for color and finding the perfect furniture. I can’t even believe this is my house when I walk into it. She mixes unique statement pieces with inexpensive and it all comes together. I feel like I’m living in a hotel! She’s helped me with my master bath and bedroom, family room, kitchen, dining room and living room! This experience was worth every penny and I can’t wait to have her come in and accessorize. Thank you Kelly for helping me have a beautiful home I’m extremely proud to live in. Before and after Kelly images attached! Just call her and you won’t regret it!
