Downsizing Professionals in Buntingford, Hertfordshire

“Our first time of appointing an interior designer to help us refurbish our property. We hired S28 to provide design ideas, decoration schemes and soft furnishing. Would highly recommend this company, very approachable and professional.”

“I was lucky enough to discover Alison through instagram and am very pleased to have opted for her 'Helping Hand' design package. We have various storage conundrums and with seemingly infinite ways of solving them (none of which seemed quite ideal) it was incredibly useful to have Alison's experienced, practical and creative ideas to narrow things down. I now feel much braver and look forward to taking the plunge!”

“I utilised Caroline’s two hour consultation service (£95) as I desperately needed some advice and ideas for my neglected 1930s hallway. As I don’t live locally, I gave Caroline some ideas and photos via text message about what I liked and didn’t like, my preferred colour palate, and what my priorities were. After some questions from Caroline and some very useful exercises looking at existing spaces and colours, and how we used the hall, she offered some simple solutions which were easily implemented. Simple things like changing the positioning of the existing lighting made a dramatic difference. Caroline then compiled a mood board for me on Pinterest with ideas for paint colours, storage solutions and suggestions for light fittings. She also made recommendations on how I could achieve a modern and coordinated hall that tied in with the existing 1930s features, yet wasn’t overly ‘matchy’. This was complemented with detailed information about sourcing items and recommending paint finishes. Caroline very cleverly sketched her ideas onto my original photo to give me an idea of what my hall could look like. This was really invaluable in helping me ‘see’ my new hall before I started work. I felt that Caroline very quickly ‘got’ what I was after. She was really friendly & approachable, responsive and offered really helpful, practical and straightforward suggestions. She didn’t impose her own tastes and encouraged me to develop my own. Initially I felt that I didn’t really know what I wanted but after conversations with Caroline, I began to gain confidence. I cannot recommend Caroline’s service highly enough. She was great fun to work with and the entire process was really enjoyable.”

“When we moved house last year we wanted to make our home look and feel special. Natalie Roukin Interiors managed to do exactly that, transforming dated décor into a beautiful stylish home. Natalie was fantastic to work with, she really took the time to understand what we liked and disliked and gave us lots of options to choose from that were in budget. We are absolutely delighted with the results and would definitely recommend using Natalie Roukin Interiors to transform your room or entire home. Nadine – St Albans”

“We were at the start of a large side return kitchen extension when I got in touch with Alpine Rose Interiors Ltd for help. I was feeling overwhelmed by the size of the new room and all of the options available to me for the kitchen, utility and living area. Gemma helped calm me down and break the space down into workable sections. She suggested different colour palettes and patterns and definitely guided me to new ideas, which I loved. I thought I wanted a dark blue kitchen because that’s what I was seeing everywhere and it felt safe, but Gemma introduced the idea of different shades of green and how the space could work with the colours of our garden. She gave me the confidence to go for something different and I am thrilled I did. She introduced us to F&L kitchens, who were amazing to work with, greatly helped by the very good working relationship Gemma has with them. Bringing Gemma onboard during the build meant she had a positive impact on decisions regarding everything from the windows & doors, kitchen design, island size and then all the decoration after the build. She provided lots of samples and mood boards and sourced good value tiles, furniture and handles. I can definitely recommend Gemma, it was brilliant working with her, and sure I will again on our next project!”

“Ayla has been very helpful and friendly throughout the process. The range of furniture choices has been lovely too.”

“Sara Slade has worked on different facets of the interior of our house on several occasions in recent years, and every time she has made things better; more stylish, more elegant, and a better fit with the overall shape and design of the house. Sara has advised on carpets, floorings and soft furnishings, on sofas, chairs and other pieces of domestic furniture, and on a full-scale domestic office fit-out. We have always found Sara helpful, friendly and highly professional, and her recommendations of appropriate related suppliers have likewise been very reliable. In short, she is a pleasure to deal with.”

“Very professional service. Gave us a clear and accurate design. Fresh ideas that allowed us to make the most of our home.”

“I own The Floor Shop, a flooring company specialising in Hardwoods and Laminates based in North London. My company has supplied and installed flooring on a number of projects for Simpson & Voyle over the last three years or so and they are without doubt one of the most professional [and nicest!] interior design firms that we work with. Their attention to detail, project management and work ethic is second to none and they work incredibly hard to ensure that the brief is met. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.”

“Sarah is just what I needed to spice up our home: she is creative yet practical (am not a fan of ostentatious stuff that doesn’t work with young kids..) and she suggests little changes that have made an enormous difference. One of the best things about her is that she can work within any budget, which I really appreciate. Oh, and she’s one of the happiest people I know!”
