  • What areas of Ottawa do you serve?
    Based out of Rockland, ON., I serve the Eastern Ontario region, and surrounding communities. As a native Ottawan, I'm familiar with all neighborhoods and their unique characteristics.
  • How much does home staging typically cost in Ottawa?
    Each project is unique and priced according to its specific needs. I provide detailed quotes after an initial consultation, considering factors like the property's size, current furnishings, and market positioning. I'm committed to working within your budget while maximizing your home's potential.

    Most homes can be staged within 1-2 days. As a sole proprietor, I personally oversee every aspect of the staging process, ensuring efficient execution and attention to detail.

  • What happens if something gets damaged during staging?
    While rare, any damages during staging are covered by my insurance. I treat every home with the utmost care and respect.
