“As a founding member of 4 Walls 1 Roof, this community of home professionals has helped me build my business while offering my clients more help in achieving their dreams.

For several design clients, I’ve involved decorators to instill the home owner’s personality with key finishing touches using color, texture and materials. Selecting furnishings during the design process ensures a highly functional floor plan. Clients are relieved to know before the project starts, exactly how everything will fit together.”

“Tina always takes time to explain my choices when solving a problem. My home had serious wood rot and Tina recommended replacing the clapboard siding with vinyl to save money as I live on the seacoast and salt air needs more frequent painting. I wasn’t ready to switch at the time but several years later I emailed Tina that I was ready to go with vinyl siding. She wrote an article to help me understand the pros and cons of vinyl siding which was very helpful.

When I need resources for any type of home project, Tina always has great recommendations. I know the Association of Women Home Owners will provide the same great resources. Most recently Tina gave me a recommendation for a home designer who would “listen to my requirements” and she in turn, recommended several builders/remodelers to meet with to complete the project. The cabinets are ordered and I’m looking forward to my new kitchen.”

“Tina is a terrific source of information for homeowners. When I have questions about an upcoming project, I contact Tina — and I have yet to stump this professor!

I highly recommend this site to any homeowner, regardless of the size or complexity of the project. Tina is committed to helping women learn about their homes to take the stress out of home ownership. She helps you understand problems and find alternative solutions. Any homeowner who wants to protect and update their home should consider this site an valuable resource.”
