Clients Rave on Yelp
![View of a modern bathroom. Flooring is a light tan with square grey grout. Wall color is grey, and the ceiling is white. The tub and toilet are also white. The main shower subway tiling is dark grayish brown, with two single vertical rows of more reflective tiles. The tub and shower are contained by a glass panel and glass door, which hinges above the tub, rather than a shower curtain. A recessed niche allows space for shower and shaving products, while a towel rail is placed on the inside of the shower, and another on the outside. A single recessed light fixture provides illumination.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Leonard-G-Bathroom1-580x870.jpg)
What I love most about my job is making clients happy. Getting to show off the final results is one of the best moments!
Equally as good is knowing my clients are so happy that they want to tell the world how great a job we did together! Here are some of my recent Yelp reviews shared by clients.
![Contemporary bathroom with dark wood cabinetry and silver horizontal drawer pulls, under a white counter surface. Mirrored medicine cabinet contains built-in side lights. The faucet fixture is square and silver with two taps. The toilet is white, sitting to the left of the counter space, which is styled with fresh white lilies and a white and silver soap bottle, with a white towel folded neatly to the left of the sink. The wall color is grey, with a white glass and silver accented rectangular wall sconce, and a single recessed light visible in the mirror.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Leonard-G-Bathroom2-580x870.jpg)

“Kimball just did the design of my bathroom and kitchen renovation at my condo in Civic Center Heights. I really could not be more pleased with the process and the result. Kimball is a good listener. She has a way of understanding what you’re driving toward even if you cannot fully explain it.
![Closeup of a corner of a contemporary bathroom with a white towel folded neatly, hanging on the silver towel rail on the left wall inside the shower. Above the towel rail is a recessed niche is styled with luxury shower product bottles, and a candle. The subway wall tiles are dark brown with a greyish horizontal striated texture. A single vertical row of flat reflective brown tiles runs from top to bottom on the back wall. A tiny strip of the grey wall paint shows at the far right of the image.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Leonard-G-Bathroom3-580x870.jpg)
She is knowledgeable, personable, a good communicator — and affordable. In fact, her fee as a percentage of the total cost of the project is quite small. Considering the time it takes to do these projects and the time I’m going to live with them, it was a good value and a good investment.
![Looking into a kitchen through a dining room pass-through space. At the far left is a large silver-finish fridge and freezer unit, with grey cabinetry above, that continues around the rest of that wall and the right wall, where you see a microwave above and a range and oven unit below. Subway tiles in varied shades of green and grey counterpoint the green plant and fresh fruit displays. Light white-colored worktops are continued in color on the passthrough, which doubles as a dining counter surface. White walls and ceiling continue throughout the rest of the space.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Leonard-G-Kitchen1-580x387.jpg)
Kimball was also able to act as my project manager when I was out of town. She interfaced easily with my general contractor, keeping the project on schedule and on budget.
![Contemporary kitchen featuring a white ceiling with recessed center square, grey cabinetry at eye level that continues around the other wall. You see a silver microwave above and a 4-burner range and oven unit below. Subway tiles in varied shades of green and grey counterpoint the green plant and fresh fruit displays. A bowl of yellow lemons adorns the counter, alongside a green glass bottle of water. The bottom cabinetry is a darker shade of grey, and the floor is a horizontal multi-colored pattern that tones with the greys and tans.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Leonard-G-Kitchen2-580x870.jpg)
I would definitely use Kimball again and have no hesitancy to recommend her.”

Sometimes folks ask me what it’s like to be under the process of construction, and living with the space. Below is an example of what that looks like, along with the Yelp review from my satisfied client.
![Yelp review profile with an outline of a man and the name Win L., from San Francisco, CA, with 4 reviews, and this is a five-star review](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Yelp-Reviewer-Win-L.png)
“We just finished a complete remodel of our master bath and we hired Kimball to help with the design. What a great experience! Not only did she help us navigate the design process but she also helped us make all of the color and finish decisions along the way. The result is both beautiful and functional.
![View into an outdated bathroom, with orangey-gold wall color paint, black flooring with white square grouting and reflective flecks, and yellow-gold toned cabinetry with a black countertop surface. There is a small window above the tub, which has unattractive security bars, and a toilet sits between the tub and the counter unit. Multiple towel rails line the walls.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Before-Win-L-580x773.jpg)
Kimball is easy to talk to and has a wonderful sense of humor. In addition to help with colors and finishes she made sure everything was to scale in the room and in line with the style of our 90-year-old house.
If you’re planning a remodel you should consider Kimball. We would definitely hire her again.”
![View into a partially-finished light-colored contemporary bathroom. The flooring and step-in shower wall tiles are varied shades of tan, with a center horizontal accent double-line of darker brown and orangey reflective tiles with a triangular shape embedded. Another row of those tiles adorns the back edge of the countertop and sink, but there are no faucet fixtures yet, and no mirrors. The cabinetry is a warm orangey-red that tones with the accent tiling. Wall paint is eggshell tan in color, with vertical rectangular modern wall sconces above the sinks. There are 3 recessed lights in the shower space, and a horizontal rectangular operable privacy window for natural light and fresh air, but no shower doors are installed yet. The toilet has been relocated to another part of the space, outside of this view.](https://kimballstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Kimball-Starr-Interior-Design_Yelp-Construction-Win-L-580x773.jpg)
