When shopping through the professionals, make sure to view examples of their work. You don't want to hire someone who's style is very jarring to you. And shop around, there are lots of really talented people out there that aren't going to charge you an arm and a leg.

Yes, it is advisable that you have done some research before consulting or hiring a professional interior decorator. This includes setting a budget for your renovation, deciding what you want to keep and remove from your home, and consulting various interior design magazines in order to get ideas on what you want to do with your rooms or and how you want them renovated. This will make it easier for you to deal with your professional interior decorator.

Definately!!!!!!
Check to see if they are listed as members of te BBB.
View their profile and make sure they are in good standing with thema nd do not have any unresolved complaints.
If they are not on that kind of oporating scale, then ask them for letters of recommendatin from former custoemrs, who are willing to all you to view the work that was done at their houses.
View ALL pics in portfolio (make sure she/he has a portfolio) and make sure all terms are afreed to in a writein contract. Make notations for time restrictions, dates to be competed and financial consequences if not completely done by deadline....................
Like 20% off total cost,
Cash reimbursment -
Or even void contract........
Hope I helped.

To impress the pro decorator, have your space as clean and as neat as it can be. First impressions are important if you want to tap into his or her artistic brain.
