We hired San Interior Design to help us redesign our kitchen. We were considering expanding the…read morehouse to accommodate a larger kitchen layout. Sanchali was instrumental in giving us design options that maximized the storage and counter space without having to expand the house footprint, saving us tens of thousands of dollars, giving us additional finds to re-pipe the house and remodel the master bath, including adding a steam shower! We are in the process of installing the tile backsplash which goes perfectly with the granite, cabinet color, flooring and paint color that Sanchali helped us select. She also helped take the stress out of the selections as a neutral 3rd party, as I have a hard time taking design risks, and my spouse may take a few too many! Our next project will be an office addition, and Sanchali will be there from the beginning through to the finish!

We recently remodeled our kitchen in San Jose, CA. Our 35+ year old kitchen was lacking serious…read morecounter/shelf space not to mention that all cabinets had seen their life. Our budget was tight as we have a college bound daughter's education to fund for next four years and another kid waiting in the wings to go to college in three years. Therefore, we could not opt to make changes to the available kitchen floor space. Sanchali provided a design to increase our cabinet space by closing backyard door from kitchen and instead placing a sliding patio door from our formal dining area. In addition, she suggested to drop the double wall oven as we hardly used the second oven and replace it with a single oven in the base cabinet. These changes allowed us to move our pantry in the area that was occupied by the door to our backyard and opened up a long counter top that we dearly needed. The net result was at least 20% more storage space along with nearly 50% more counter space without adding an square inch to the floor area!!! Her designs were key to identify a suitable contractor and get competitive bids on the project. The project took less than three weeks to complete. Sanchali was readily available throughout this project and provided key insights to ensure that our appliance specs were aligned with available cabinet space. The whole project along with moving the patio door ran shy of $22k, which was way below what we were getting quotes for just last year. The new kitchen looks beautiful with Cherry cabinets and granite counter-top. Even the new patio door also opened up view to our backyard from dining area. We couldn't be happier with the outcome including the service provided during this period.

They are a terrific design and build company, and we are very happy with the work they did. We hired them in 2020 to complete our kitchen and family room remodel, and were very pleased with their whole process and especially the skilled people they have working for them. We decided to do the rest of our home, and were thrilled they were able to help us again. We expanded closets, moved a wall, took out an old chimney, redid the floors and lighting, put in 5 new windows, and had the interior and exterior repainted. From design to build, they were very professional and easy to work with. It feels like having a construction company in the family. They were respectful and knowledgeable, and every time something unexpected came up, they gave us good advice about what we needed to do and what was optional. Our designer Lisa was very patient with us, as we worked out all the details before construction began. Jason was great as our project manager, giving us good advice when we ran across termite damage and always making sure things were done to our satisfaction. And our electrician, Robin, was amazing - so knowledgeable and made it her goal every day she worked that we were happy with the lighting and fans she installed. Gave us such confidence that the work was done right and will last for many years! I highly recommend Gridley if you want things done right, with no worries. They gave our 67 year old house a much needed update, and we love it.

Working with Fera has been an absolute pleasure. When we first started working together, she was…read morejust beginning to build her own business, yet her natural talent was immediately clear. I am not an easy person to please, and I admit I am a perfectionist -- everything must be just right. In the past, even when I hired very high-end stagers, I would always find myself going back after they were done to adjust details: adding, removing, relocating items, bringing in fresh flowers, and more. But once I began working with Fera, everything changed. I quickly saw the potential she has -- her eye for design, her sense of quality, and her ability to create perfectly balanced spaces are exceptional. She makes everything look flawless, and for the first time, I truly felt I didn't need to redo a single thing. I genuinely enjoy working with her and highly recommend Fera to anyone looking for an interior designer with great taste, dedication, and an extraordinary attention to detail.

For my latest Benicia listing, her staging created such an impact that we secured a cash offer in only 10 days, well exceeding the market average.

We've had a couple of hinges wear out and they simply replaced them...without a charge. Recently, one of the drawers would not close completely and I sent an email with pictures to them to see if they had any suggestions. That same day I received a email back saying they would look into it. A couple of days later, Chris came out to our house and adjusted the drawer. While he was here he also fixed another drawer...all without a charge. The Timeline team takes care of their customers. Great products and great service.

Working with Samah has been amazing. We sought her expertise for our 570 sq.ft. tiny home (ADU)…read moresince we required a custom plan because the available area to build in our backyard isn't rectangular. Samah met with us, surveyed the site, and drafted a plan based on our wants and also gave recommendations from her experience. We went with her experience! The architectural plans and structural calculations (we used her referral) were delivered to our city and county in such detail, everyone was surprised. This detail is what we want to highlight. It makes the build much easier, almost like lego, and the inspection process smooth. We had to go through various inspections: - Underground plumbing - Rebar - Foundation - Exterior shear wall - Exterior lath - Rough framing - Roof - Wall insulation - Window flashing - Drywall - Shower and backing - Exterior slats - Electrical meter - Planning final - Solar - Final Absolutely wonderful.

From the initial concept discussions, she took the time to truly understand our vision, lifestyle, and priorities. Her ability to translate our ideas into a design that was both beautiful and highly functional made every detail feel intentional, bringing together aesthetics, efficiency, and comfort perfectly. Communication was clear and consistent throughout the project. She was responsive, patient with our questions, and proactive in offering thoughtful solutions when challenges arose. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave us complete confidence at every stage. What stood out most was her ability to balance big-picture thinking with meticulous execution. The final result is a space that not only looks incredible but also feels tailored specifically to us. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, reliable architect who is genuinely invested in delivering exceptional work. It was an absolute pleasure working with Samah.

She has also outfitted our living room with beautiful furniture additions and the great room is looking fabulous. We are now working on ceiling light fixtures to complete the rooms. Janine is a delight to work with. She has pushed my comfort boundaries to create a space we have come to love. She also is very collaborative, listens to our feedback, and makes adjustments to find exactly the right fit. She also will do as much or as little as you would like.

We were referred by a friend who had a great experience earlier this year, and we're so glad we followed that recommendation. Ivy, our designer, was fantastic to work with. She listened carefully to our needs, offered thoughtful and practical design suggestions, and was always quick to respond to questions. Her attention to detail and ability to translate our ideas into a cohesive design made the process stress-free and enjoyable. The construction phase was equally well managed. Rod and Taylor communicated clearly throughout the project and kept everything moving efficiently. When a neighboring unit experienced a plumbing issue related to our water shutoff, the team handled it promptly and professionally, while being very considerate of the neighbor's schedule. We are very pleased with the final result and highly recommend Meyers to anyone looking for a professional, responsive, and well-organized remodeling team.
