the Burning Questions

We know you have them

Still have questions? Take a look at the FAQ or reach out anytime. If you’re feeling ready, contact us for a consultation.

  • It’s helpful to have an understanding of the project scope, a rough budget for construction, furnishings and design fees, and inspiration photos of certain styles that resonate with you..

  • We have a clear, outlined map of how we get our clients from Point A to Point B. We follow the same process every single time for reliable, predictable results. That way, our clients have a clear understanding of what they can expect throughout the process, and what the milestones and deliverables are along the way.

  • During the construction phase you should always expect the unexpected. There is always something a contractor will uncover that may impact the execution of the design. You want a designer on site to help navigate these unexpected bumps in the road, who can advise and pivot towards solutions that keep the design intent intact.

  • Every project is unique, but creating a design plan for our clients usually takes between 6-16 weeks. The execution phase can last anywhere from 4-12 months, depending on the project scope.

  • At Rust Belt, our interior design services are deeply connected to the way we renovate, build, and customize every home we work on. Serving Buffalo, NY and surrounding Western New York communities including Clarence, Amherst, Orchard Park, East Aurora, Williamsville, and Elmwood Village, we take a fully integrated in-house approach that combines interior design, custom cabinetry, and luxury renovation into one seamless experience.

    By working with a design expert, you will avoid costly mistakes and time-consuming setbacks of trying to do things on your own. Ultimately, a designer acts as the liaison between the contractor and client. They are a valuable team member who will be your advocate, ensuring that the vision for your home is executed accurately.
