I rent out a house in the Otsego area and had the task of replacing the carpet prior to the new…read moretenants moving in. I had to have the carpet installed on a very tight timeline. My property manager had a carpet installer, but it was my job to pick the carpet. He recommended a brand and I started researching. I had no idea how many carpets there were! When I used a compare feature on one of the carpet brand websites, one of the stats I was given was pile height. I thought why do I care what height the pile is? I was overwhelmed. I didn't know how to narrow the choices down and pick one. I didn't have the understanding to know what type of carpet would be best. Catherine was amazing and saved the day! She handled all communications with the carpet installer including coordinating with my property manager to meet the carpet installer at the rental property to review choices and see samples in the actual space. She took the thousands of choices and narrowed it down to three. She explained in a knowledgeable, concise manner why she was choosing the three she did and used a picture board to summarize the options. She was very patient and answered all my questions. She didn't overwhelm me with too much information, but she gave me enough to be able to make a well-informed decision. She communicated clearly and was very organized. She far exceeded my expectations! I must admit before hiring Catherine, I didn't realize how valuable a certified interior designer would be. I am quite pleased with my decision to hire her and I would highly recommend her!
