Suzanne Hargett

Suzanne has an eye for color and texture that combined with her expertise and attention to detail — yields exquisite results. We had the pleasure of working with her on a multimillion dollar project that required her being there onsite for several months - if not longer - through completion. She did an amazing job.

Would not recommend Suzanne to my worst enemy. Not only is she the most difficult person I have ever worked with but she also did not pay subcontractors on my job. I wanted to spend approximately 30k on my project. I ended up giving Ms. Hargett approximately 50k being told that she had to put so much down for the flooring, etc. One week before the project was complete, I learned she had not paid the flooring company or other vendors what she represented to me that she had paid. I instructed to immediately pay the flooring company that day 20k of my money she had and she refused. I fired her and ended up by over 50k to contractors to finish the home. The work she did so was substandard. Given the money I spent, you would think she would use wood for the baseboard as I had instructed. Instead, she used a cheap pressed wood. She then ordered very expensive wood for the cabinets and painted half telling me the price for stained wood and wood you use to paint is the same - which is not true. I extended my fence and wanted a 6 foot fence. The fence she put in on one side is not even 5'8". The sinks are not lined up in the master bath. She ordered the wrong bathtub, so I am not able to have a shower in the bath even though she took money from me to pay a plumber to put in a shower. (meaning, I paid to have the piping installed for shower but cannot have shower because she ordered the wrong tub). I could go on and on as to her errors. Basically, she is a nightmare to deal with and cost me a fortune. I would use anyone other than Suzanne Hargett. Final note, one of the vendors she recommended told me to check Suzanne Hargett's (Suzanne is her middle name) criminal history. I did and found a theft related charge. It was old but not surprising as Suzanne kept thousands of money I gave her to give to subcontractors. Suzanne's favorite response to me when I questioned anything was "trust me". Well I DO NOT TRUST SUZANNE HARGETT AND YOU SHOULD NOT EITHER.

We relocated to Tyler rather unexpectedly and rapidly. We chose a house quickly and needed someone to hire contractors, oversee their work and take control of improvements and enhancements to the home without us being physically present. I tried to contact several designers without any response and was beginning to panic! I went to HOUZZ and looked at designers listed and again contacted a couple. Then I tried Suzanne (should have gone with her first)!!!. Suzanne not only dropped everything to meet with me, but listened closely to the vision I had. She quickly grasped what was needed in the home to make it ours ... and did an amazing job of finding contractors, keeping the time-line on schedule, keeping to the budget and making decisions as needed. When we arrived in Tyler with our belongings, the transition into the house went quickly and smoothly. Suzanne and her team did an amazing job. We even ended up hiring Suzanne and team to unpack our household items, place them appropriately and even hang pictures! I am still in awe of all she accomplished in a short period of time ... and stayed on budget. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!!! Suzanne worked tirelessly to accomplish our vision above and beyond what our expectation was. Throughout the entire process she was friendly, kind, respectful and never pushed me to do more than I felt we could financially do. She had great suggestions and improved on my ideas. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. In fact, if I have to move again I think I may take her with me!!! Thank you Suzanne for making the transition to Tyler less painful!!

She had great ideas, was skilled at determining our own tastes, and made sure the job was done right, start to finish. She has a great aesthetic and is willing to work on a budget.

I have been in several different houses that Suzanne has remodeled and decorated. Each of them were uniquely different and beautiful. She is a wonderful person and I believe that she is capable of getting any job done.

Suzanne is one of the best designers I have ever seen. She is very professional and still down to earth. It is like having a good friend over to work on your home. She is delightful and so knowlegable about all aspects of decorating. She chose a granite for my kitchen that I would have never thought of. Like I say, she is like having a great friend over.
