FAQs

WHAT IS FULL SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN?

Full service means Jessica Moran Interiors will manage your project from initial concept and space planning all the way to final installation. Although we are not general contractors, we are happy to collaborate with your contractors to ensure a seamless project management phase.

How much SHOULD I BUDGET?

We work with clients in a few different ways so we can accommodate different budgets. For our full service design, our clients typically have furnishing and project budgets beginning at $25,000, not including our design fees. Full service design fees are billed at a flat rate and begin at $4,000. Not ready for full service design? We also offer a personalized 2 hour design consultation for $595.

HOW ARE YOUR FEES BROKEN DOWN?

Great question! Our design fees are billed at a flat rate so you know exactly what the investment is before signing on the dotted line. We’ll also provide you with estimates for your project so you know what to expect for furnishing your spaces.

CAN YOU USE MY EXISTING PIECES?

Yes, we love to incorporate heirlooms and antiques into your design if they are compatible with the layout of the space and your design aesthetic. We also have been known to reupholster well-made sofas and chairs to create an even more unique space.

HOW MUCH TIME DOES THE DESIGN PROCESS TAKE?

Every project is unique and we’ll determine an estimated timeline with you upfront. The full service design phase takes anywhere from 10-12 weeks. From there, ordering, furniture production, shipping, and project management can take anywhere from 2-12 months or more, and a renovation or new build project can take a year or more. *We recommend securing a designer 6-8 months in advance of any upcoming deadlines.

HOW OFTEN CAN WE TALK?

Open and clear communication is incredibly important to us! Once we've officially started your project, we're available by email during business hours and are happy to schedule calls to talk through any questions you have about the process. We’ll find out upfront how involved you want to be and how often you want updates, then we’ll manage the communication from there so you can enjoy the process without overwhelm or anxiety.

CAN YOU RECOMMEND A CONTRACTOR/TRADES?

Partnering with professional tradespeople is a crucial part of our process. In our full service process, we'll work with our team of trades to prepare estimates for the work we recommend and oversee their progress throughout your project. We are also happy to work with your trusted contractors as well! Although we do not act as contractors and therefore do not control the contractors / trades schedules, we are happy to communicate with them throughout the process to help keep the project moving forward.

WHAT IF I DON'T LOVE THE DESIGN?

The research phase of every project is incredibly detailed and thorough so we have a complete understanding of your design style and lifestyle. Every proposal includes a certain number of re-selections and we are always designing with you in mind!

WHAT IF THERE ARE ISSUES?

We have a passion for being upfront with clients about the design process and all of the peaks and valleys we will hit along the way. By setting these expectations upfront, we find that the process is much more enjoyable for our clients. We'll be working closely together for an extended period of time, and there will be delays AND frustrations along the way. It is our commitment to manage any issues and provide open and honest communication so you are never left in the dark. We pride ourselves on providing an enjoyable and organized experience and a beautiful and unique end result. And just remember...

THERE'S A SOLUTION TO EVERY PROBLEM!
