Chad did an amazing job on my full kitchen remodel back in 2018 so when I recently bought a new home that needed some updating he was my first call. He has now helped me redesign everything from kitchens and master bathrooms to laundry rooms and playrooms. But I have to say my favorite was his help on choosing the perfect color for a custom murphy bed wall that transformed my home office. Thanks to Chad’s help and guidance all of the projects have turned out exactly as I hoped. Chad does a great job turning my high-level ideas on design into reality. I enjoy working with him as he’s always very responsive, no matter how big or small the question, and the design process feels truly collaborative. I also appreciate Chad’s friendly and professional demeanor that points me in the right direction without being pushy. Chad is particularly helpful at guiding me on where I can save some budget and where it’s worth a little splurge. I’ve also used many of Chad’s recommendations on different trades and they have all worked out great as well. I look forward to continuing to work with Chad and would recommend him to anyone looking for an...

Chad was amazing to work with! Doing a remodel can be stressful but he made the process go so smoothly! He supported us every step of the way from drawing up multiple options to choose from for our new layout, checking in during construction, and assisting in picking out all materials, colors, and accessories (stools, cabinet pulls, sink, lighting, window treatments etc.). The best part was that he went to every retailer with us to pick out big ticket items such as cabinets, counters, tiles and window treatments. We would have been lost doing this all on our own. Having a professional with us to give their honest opinion and knowing the best places to shop made it so easy! The kitchen sink we desperately wanted was out of stock everywhere and there was a 90 day back order! Chad knew a guy who was able to get it for us in two weeks! We highly recommend working with Chad, the amount of stress, time and energy he saved us is invaluable and he transformed our small, outdated kitchen into our...

We used Chad Esslinger Design initially to update our family room, Chad came in to meet with us, got a sense of our style, our expectations for the project and to see the space. After our initial meeting, Chad sent us over some plans including design, furniture and decorative options. Chad was very open to our questions, ideas and feedback during the design process. As we moved into the construction phase, Chad was just as engaged throughout the construction process and came in to meet with the contractors about design questions and to trouble shoot any challenges. After construction was complete Chad came back in to arrange the furniture and décor to complete the project. We greatly appreciated Chad's approach and love the style that he brought to our project. We were so impressed with Chad Esslinger Design that we have used him to update our formal living room, our powder room and help with some updates to...
