Do note that the free services mentioned below are not expected of an interior designer and is by no means an indication of an interior designer's ability or sincerity. Their willingness to go the ‘extra-mile’ is dependent on multiple factors e.g. company policies, the scope of your renovation, your budget, the way you treat them etc.

‍

Guided Shopping

If you’re intending to source materials or accessories yourself, your interior designers might be able to provide recommendations on credible shops you can visit.

They can also serve as a sounding board that prevents you from making mistakes e.g. you can ask them for advice on whether the prices are reasonable or their opinion on the item you’re purchasing.

Some interior designers may even accompany you during your shopping trips.

Nobody Around Us Could Recommend a Good ID

It was almost like they didn’t exist - so we started our search on Google. HomeMatch came across as a no brainer for us to try because of their case trust accredited IDs, clear outline of their services and the fact that they came at no cost to us. The communication with HomeMatch were always swift, clear and helpful. From our online form, they called and clarified our needs then set about to match us with five IDs. We were able to view their profiles, portfolios and video snippets which were handy when it came to comparing meeting them in person whether they were authentic. Four of the five IDs contacted us swiftly and met with us twice - the first time to understand our requirements and floor plan and the second time to propose layout and itemized quotation. Same went for the fifth ID who was a later match because the initial match was not able to meet us. HomeMatch really came through with promptly replacing the initial recommendation such that the replacement ID was able to meet us the very next day. We were able to select an ID from the five based on all our interactions and although the process from contacting HomeMatch to signing with ID took 2 months it would have taken even longer had we tried to source IDs from the wild. HomeMatch services didn’t end with us signing the contract. HomeMatch reviewed our contract and advised us of its pros and shortcomings. They also provided critical tips that will help make our renovation journey a successful one. Although our Reno work have not begun we know that clear communication works best and we can always count on HomeMatch should we need them again.

Wear and Tear for Negligible Items

Wear and tear generally aren’t protected by warranties (see warranty clauses to look out for). However, some interior designers may be willing to provide a rectification at no charge for negligible items e.g. door hinges rusting.

Handyman Works

Interior designers may also be willing to help you out in areas which fall outside the scope of the renovation works you’re paying them for e.g. putting up a photo frame, installation of self-purchased items etc.

Note: It is unreasonable to demand free installation of self-purchased items that are obviously out of scope. E.g. free installation of toilet accessories when you’re not paying your IDs for any toilet related works.
