Discussion Hired a designer and a GC separately on my last remodel. Won’t do it again.
Finishing up a bathroom renovation in West Palm Beach and it’s been a frustrating six months. The designer I hired was excellent at selections and the look of things, but once construction started she was basically off the project. The GC made a bunch of on-site calls that changed the layout, and now a few things don’t work the way they were drawn.
Not looking for sympathy, just wondering how other people in this area have handled it. Is there a way to keep a designer more involved through construction, or is there a different type of firm I should be looking at for the kitchen I’m planning next? Feels like there has to be a better structure for this.
