Great room, office, bedroom, family room. They created a full plan, we made one or two very minor adjustments, and now we are living in our dream house with furnishings and rugs that perfectly complement the modern vibe. And the price was right! I recommend By Design to everyone I know who might be thinking about furnishings and area rugs. The products are great quality, and the designers are top notch and super nice. One piece or a houseful - they will take care of you.

She deconstructed the flowers to build boutonnières for the groomsmen and bridesmaids, and they all turned out beautifully. We don't live in Iowa, so we sent her pictures of the flowers we wanted her to use and talked about different size options over the phone. She was lovely to work with, very responsive over email, and we really appreciated her talents. She even recommended a lovely flower preservation artist to have our flowers preserved after the wedding. We really appreciated Danielle and Something Chic Floral. Please support this wonderful local florist! Our photographer got some lovely shots of the flowers... those are attached. Thanks again Danielle!

She didn't push anything we didn't want; she just gave us what we wanted/needed and direction when we needed it. She helped us devise floral arrangements and decor for both our ceremony and reception that fit both our visions and our budget. The results were stunning--the flowers were perfect and we had so many compliments. Couldn't have been happier. We highly recommend Danielle if you're looking for gorgeous floral work/rental items.

We found Prestige Kitchen and Bath by chance in Des Moines, and I'm so glad we did!…read moreWe were planning to go to Menards or Home Depot, thinking they were more affordable, but I learned that specialized kitchen and bath stores like Prestige are actually a much better choice -- you can find higher quality and great prices too! Jason welcomed us warmly from the start and took the time to explain everything clearly. He showed us their beautiful quartz inventory (which was exactly what I was looking for), the quality of their cabinets, and the strong hardware they use. We were very impressed by both the quality and the value. We decided to go with the full service -- cabinets, countertops, and even a quartz backsplash. Jason and Justin were so kind and professional throughout the process. The installation team made sure everything was perfect, and now I finally have my dream kitchen! I highly recommend Prestige Kitchen and Bath to anyone in Des Moines looking for beautiful, high-quality kitchen cabinets and countertops with excellent customer service.

Prestige has a large selection of countertops. We went with cabinet install and countertop purchase…read moreand install. Then the reality was they did not know how to measure and did so by hand, not laser. They did not have expertise in installing the cabinets which resulted in some things left not done as well as broken. Due to Jason not accurately measuring for the countertops, there was much cutting and grinding to fit that took place at the home instead of in their shop, leaving the debris from the cutting and grinding stone all through the house, inside and outside; they did not even put up plastic sheeting to try to contain the mess. The design of the grain was pieced together in different directions, making for an unappealing look. They also cracked the stone and tried to cover it up with epoxy and then Jason lied about it. We were told it was just extra epoxy that could be scrapped off, which was a lie. After trying that and returning to let Justin know about the fact we were lied to and it was indeed a section of the countertop that the installers had damaged and tried to hide from us, we were offered half off the quoted price and the attempt to try to fill it in, but they could not guarantee the results. It was at this point that we found that we were considered an experiment as they did not have as much experience as we were initially led to believe. First, we would like to deal with a company that has integrity, and second, did not want a new countertop to have the appearance of an old damaged countertop. Justin accepted complete responsibility. We paid another company to uninstall the countertops, as we did not feel comfortable signing a waiver releasing Prestige of any damage they might cause in the removal of countertops. We did get a refund on the price paid after they picked up their product. The new company that we paid to take the countertops off informed us they were not installed properly! There was way too much glue in some places and not enough glue and caulking in other places. The reality that the stone was not securely installed was rather frightening. In placing an order with another company we also found that the square footage Prestige used and initially charged for was over and above what the measurements by the company we are now using were, resulting in charging the customer several hundred dollars for incorrectly measured square footage. Make sure to use a company that uses an accurate laser measurement system.

They also took out a bush stump, but left the root system, which keeps coming back up so we have to dig down and get out the roots ourselves. For the money charged, you'd think that they could have easily rototilled the ground that had the root system in it. We followed watering instructions as given. Now, about two months out, we've watered as given instruction, and most of the clover is dead. For the money, I would shop around next time if you want clover planted - not worth it. Their "guarantee" really doesn't cover this, so we are SOL and hundreds of dollars poorer. Next time, I'll put in my own grass seed and save quite a bit of money, even if it doesn't grow.
