J Wiley Designs

Loved working with the Wiley team on my home extension project! The results are stunning and it was just a delight to work with her team. End result has truly taken my house from "cute" to gorgeous!

I am elated with the outcome of my kitchen and powder bath projects with J Wiley Designs! I am someone who has a difficult time making choices from the myriad of items on the market. They narrowed the field and guided me in way that I got the look I wanted and had confidence in what I was selecting, and I really ended up enjoying the process. The results are beautiful, everything looks wonderful together, and they solved several tricky design issues that my old house presented. Jennifer and her team were a joy to work with, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone.

Loved working with Jenifer and her team! I had many ideas of what to remodel in my condo and she helped me narrow down what to do that would make the biggest impact and give me the most for the budget. We were able to add cabinetry in the kitchen and turned a choppy small master bath into a large and beautiful master bath. Painted all walls, added lighting and the tile/flooring selections all look amazing! The transformation was well worth it!

J Wiley Designs did an amazing job on our kitchen and master bath remodel. We could not be happier with the quality and professionalism.

By far the best business decision I have ever made was hiring J Wiley Designs. Jenifer brings an unprecedented amount of vision, organization, and design to all of her projects. She stays on task, but more importantly helped the project move forward. She and her office have excellent communication, are friendly, and know the industry extremely well. My experience with the contractor was extremely difficult, and thanks to Jenifer Wiley, we survived! She brought peace and direction to a difficult project. She not only has design savvy, but an unparalleled understanding of construction. And when it was all said and done, the home is beautiful and everyone who sees it wants to know who the designer was! Thank you, Jenifer and team, for honoring our home, our budget, our time, and our experience. You are all the best.

All the stars! I could not be more pleased with the gorgeous finishes and furnishings for our new kitchen and addition. Everyone loves the once-in-a-lifetime renovation of our 100-year-old tudor cottage. Jenifer is a brilliant designer who exceeded my expectations on every aspect of the 8-month project--from upfront design, through hundreds of selections, to installation. Her experience and wisdom helped ensure I made smart and stunning choices. She helped me create my dream kitchen and den, while managing to the budget, enhancing my own novice vision, and ensuring a timeless space my family will enjoy for years to come. Jenifer and her team are fantastic communicators who also attend to every detail. They are superbly creative with the perfect eye for large-scale projects like ours. Jenifer also excelled at the PROCESS through all the stages--she made it seamless, efficient, stress-free, and fun! I will use her again and have already recommended her to friends and family. You can't go wrong with Jenifer on your team!

Jenifer was a fantastic help in the redesign of our house! Neither my wife nor I had ever done any type of renovation before, but from our very first consultation, Jenifer made us feel comfortable. She openly listened to all of our concerns and questions and guided us to a design that worked best for us. She was always there with fresh ideas, but never forced us in a direction we did not want to go. I can say without a doubt that without that our renovation would not have turned out as well as it did without Jenifer and her team. I seriously cannot recommend J. Wiley Designs enough!

We bought our early-1980’s suburban home a few years ago, knowing that several areas would eventually have to be renovated. Our goal was to make our home, and especially our bathroom, age-in-place friendly. While neither my husband nor I have mobility problems (yet), we’ve seen how challenging it can be to manage following a broken ankle or knee reconstruction. So among our needs were a wider bathroom entrance, a larger shower, and a toilet space roomy enough to maneuver with a walker. My husband and I are novices at redesigning a residence (not counting a DIY house flip). However, I’m a researcher by profession and temperament, and I had searched endlessly through remodel companies, designers, plumbing, layouts, etc. He finally said, “Either pick something and let’s get started or quit talking about it!” After identifying professionals who were trained in bath and kitchen design and reading (too many) reviews on Houzz, we called on Jenifer Wiley to design our master bathroom. My priorities, I told this teensy blonde dynamo, were 1) function, 2) function, 3) function, and 4) beautiful. She said, “No problem—we’ll get Numbers 1, 2, and 3 done right and Number 4 will flow out of that.” And it did. After settling on a design that would replace the old garden tub with a curbless shower, Jenifer and I went shopping. Her process, she said, was to start with the stone for the countertops and let the rest of the choices emerge from that pick. At the stone yard, I was ready to make a safe, HGTV-approved choice—a Carrara marble, perhaps—when Jenifer stopped me. “I have done a lot of bathrooms,” she said, “and I have never had a client regret going bold with their stone. But I have had clients regret going safe. You’re spending a lot of money to do this project—don’t chicken out now!” She said she’d make sure I didn’t choose something horrible. And she didn’t. We chose a show-stopping gray-and-taupe Fusion quartzite that ended up being used both for the vanity counter and also a bench in the shower. It’s the star of the bathroom! Every time I panicked—“This (tile, paint, whatever) isn’t going to work!” —Jenifer reassured me that it would. For example, during our product shopping trip we had picked out plumbing fixtures, but after reflecting on it, I realized I wanted something a little more contemporary. I found a different design from the same manufacturer that I liked better, and with great trepidation showed it to Jenifer. “There are many right answers to this problem,” she said, “and this one will be lovely.” And it is—every single day I go into my new bathroom and admire the graceful lines on the sink faucets! She is also a patient teacher—when I wanted an opaque shower glass, for instance, she brought several samples of glass, explained the pros and cons of each, and then left me alone to see for myself why a clear glass would be a better choice. Other issues required creative solutions, of which Jenifer was fearless. For example, while the space isn’t tiny, the new water closet and enlarged opening to the bedroom made it difficult to situate the doors. Jenifer suggested using sliding barn-type doors, done in a more contemporary style. They work perfectly. We also learned during the tub demo that a load-bearing support was in an unexpected place. Jenifer and the general contractor put their heads together and came up with an alternative placement of the shower bench. The result looks better than it would have originally. To wrap up, we have zero regrets about hiring Jenifer Wiley to design our bathroom. The end result exceeded our expectations. As soon as we build our savings back up, we’ll be getting back on her schedule to create a functional and beautiful new kitchen.

Great Experience from start to finish. Awesome results. Jennifer was easy to work with and has a ton of knowledge, experience and contacts to get the desired results. It was a pleasure to have worked with her on my house.

I can't say enough about Jenifer and her impeccable taste and design! I have had the opportunity to photograph her work for years now. Her attention for design and excellence is unmatched. Customers love working with her! She sits and chats like they are long time friends at all our photoshoots. Jen has a wide range of ability in design and really listens to the client and what they have envisioned. She can also step into a space and design for a client that is not sure what they are looking for and I always hear the client tell me their story and how much they love her and her work!

Jenifer was very professional and personable and managed our master bathroom remodeling project through unforeseen changes and challenges. She has a keen eye for style and listening to the voice of the customer while understanding that trends come and go. Her recommendations and ability to get to know us broadened her effectiveness in establishing a high level of quality in fit and finish. I would definitely recommend Jenifer for design, as well as for overall project management, and look forward to working with her again in the future.

The company we hired to remodel our kitchen brought Jenifer to our house. Immediately, I was comfortable with her and knew we were going to create a beautiful space. Jenifer Wiley did not disappoint!! I told her I wanted a light and bright kitchen/den area and it is gorgeous!!! The end result is completely different from my traditional space of dark, heavy fabrics, dark wood and too many antiques (too much furniture). I now have a modern transitional space with light, bright (interesting) fabrics. I work full time and don't have days and weeks to make decisions. We met to pick out countertops, cabinets, floors, and backsplash...it was done in four hours! She challenged me to go outside of my comfort zone and I am SO happy with everything we picked out!!!! She has impeccable taste and LISTENS to what you want!! Her responsiveness to messages, phone calls is very prompt and she is happy to give a thumbs up (or down) on items I have found. She is an absolute delight to work with and I can say, I have a better eye for beautiful things after listening to her!! I read the other reviews and I can say, Jenifer IS the real deal!! Thank you, Jenifer, for giving me a beautiful home that I love every day!!
