Design Directions

Valerie completely transformed our 70-year-old house to the modern home of our dreams.
We bought our 1950s home for its location and knowing that we had a remodel project on our hands. Our previous house was a similar project that we took on without a designer... (never again). The experiences were night and day. Valerie listened to our design preferences; she showed us 3D renderings of her ideas; she provided an accurate budget; and she coordinated EVERYTHING while keeping us informed. We didn't have to lift a finger. And the finished product is better than we could have ever imagined.
In addition

Hiring Valerie and her amazing team to renovate our 1914 craftsman bungalow was a FANTASTIC decision! I was concerned that by opening up and modernizing our home we would lose it’s craftsman charm, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. Valerie listened carefully to our goals and concerns and with her design and decorating talent layed out a functional floor plan that utilized and maximized our small space beautifully! We were able to open up our main living space, add a master bedroom, master bath and a walk- in closet while increasing our storage exponentially!
Valerie was always professional

Positive: Quality, Value

I could not be more happy with the experience with Design Directions and specifically Valerie. She understood my vision for a kitchen remodel almost immediately. The work started on time and stayed within budget. Valerie kept the sub-contractors and scheduling very organized. Not only that, but the same work from a similar design company in OKC was going to cost significantly more. The results are even better than I expected. Would definitely use again in the future!

I cannot say enough good things about Valerie and Design Directions! I highly recommend them for any work you may be considering. They completely exceeded expectations when they re-designed our kitchen and bathroom. Most excitingly, the job was completed ahead of the originally estimated schedule. There were very few days when someone was not working on the house. Additionally, workers were timely and typically worked full days. They itemized initial estimates and what is billed so you can easily see where your money is going and compare actuals to estimates. In summary, they were on budget, ahead

Design Directions did a wonderful job transforming our dated master bath into a beautiful and functional space! The process was well managed and run very efficiently and we were extremely pleased with the service provided by Valerie and her team of skilled contractors!

I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am in my new home. It’s almost unbelievable that this house is the same dark and dated one I bought a couple of years ago! After looking at many of new and already remodeled homes that just didn’t fit the bill, I set my sights on buying one to remodel and make my own. Valerie Helgeson with Design Directions worked with my realtor and I during the house hunting phase and when we finally found the right house, I hired her as my designer and general contractor. It was an extensive project with 3,000 square feet of living space that involved tearing down

Valerie and her team are excellent at what they do. Such an easy process during what can be a stressful time. I will use Design Directions again!

When you hire Valerie and Design Directions, not only do you get a detail-oriented contractor but an amazing interior designer that knows how to get the look you want within your budget. Valerie looked at our 1960s bathroom and brainstormed a few ideas with me. Within a week she delivered a project proposal with estimate. Throughout the planning phase, Valerie’s years of experience remodeling and designing homes was so helpful. She was able to tell us what items would help us get the most bang for our buck, how to maximize square footage, and upgrades that would help achieve that “wow factor”

Valarie and the Design Directions team did an excellent job remodeling my bathroom. They stayed on budget and finished the project on schedule. Valarie is great at keeping you as informed and as involved as you want to be. If you choose Design Directions, you won’t be sorry.
