We redecorated a Drawing Room recently. We worked with Colette Ward Interiors to a very tight schedule. It was a very positive experience and we are extremely happy with the result. Colette and her team are very talented, professional and warm. Everything happened on time and the workmanship was superb. It was my first experience of working with a decorator. Now, I don’t know why it took me so long! Life is so much easier. Thank you again.

Fresh thinking with a twist! This is how I would describe Linda Hannay, with whom I consulted when dealing with Collette Ward Interiors. Linda helped me to put together a “look” for our new house that ensured a sense of flow and connection between all the rooms, ensuring that it was fresh and modern. She made me step outside my comfort zone to a certain extent, and I am soo glad she did! I love the contemporary, homely look and feel of my house and look forward to dealing with Linda again in the future, as I still have more on my wishlist! I would highly recommend using Collette Ward Interiors.

This was our first experience of working with a professional interior designer and it was a joy!
Our project was a large sitting/dining room, stuck in a minimalist time-warp, with the dining function no longer required, and with all the charm of a doctor’s waiting room!
Colette transformed our room into a modern, vibrant, welcoming space which we love.
Colette is a very warm, creative, energetic person to work with.. We found her and her team a pleasure to work with. Collette interprets what you, the client, wants and delivers on time and on budget.

Collette and all her team were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Collette is a real professional and instantly got what we wanted for our project. She has a very impressive showroom with an absolute mine of information and samples but is so quick at narrowing it down for the time poor clients that we were. Her appraisal of our needs was so fast and we found the service to be excellent value for money. Costs were discussed at all stages of the project and we felt supported in all our decisions and were given the nudge to step outside our comfort zone, which we greatly appreciated. I could not recommend Collette Ward Interiors more.

I had a small fire in my sitting room and I just didn’t know where to start to replace everything so I contacted Collette Ward Interiors and I had no more worries, Linda looked after everything for me.
She was so professional and nothing was left to chance
Thanks again

Linda was an absolute (very patient )dream to deal with, she came into our house and changed it for the better, her huge ideas to her little touches were amazing, she was available 24/7 7 days a week and would constantly send more colours, lights, rug, ideas daily. I could not recommend Linda and all the ladies in Colette Ward Interiors enough

Lovely lady to work with, great ideas and style suggestions. Colour suggested worked really well and the wall paper I loved when I saw it first time.

We worked with Collette Ward on the amazing Ideal Home Show ‘Showhouse’ project and loved working with her and her team. They were very easy to deal with and came up with some really creative ideas throughout the project. We have no problem recommending Collette to others and look forward to working with her team in the near future.

What I like about Collette is that she makes the whole process fun when it can seem quite daunting. She is full of exciting ideas, if you have no idea but more importantly, she brings ideas out of me that I did not even know I had! She is very much a competent guide rather than a dictator. She is also extremely efficient and can deliver on time and on budget.

Collette Ward was appointed by SDL Exhibitions to be the interior designer of the Showhouse at the Ideal Home Show in the RDS on the October bank holiday this year (2017). This is a very large and demanding project which requires a high level of creative design, vision and the ability to deal with tight deadlines and lots of suppliers. Collette created an amazingly beautiful Showhouse and the show visitors definitely voted it as one of the best ever. Collette has a great understanding of colour and how to create a different look and feel for each of her clients homes. And to top it all, she is a pleasure to work with. SDL Exhibitions and the Ideal Home Show can unreservedly recommend Collette Ward Interiors.

From initial consultation to the final finished look was clever, professional and very stress free .. I really could not have chosen the colour scheme, matching fabrics all myself, and the beautiful furniture to compliment.
We started off doing our main bedroom, then followed through on a painting scheme for the upstairs landing, stairs and continued to the downstairs area. Collette made it all so achievable and worked to our budget.
Our home is totally transformed thanks to Collette Ward Interiors, it feels and looks like a new home and we love it all again.
I will be requesting more advice from Collette Ward Interiors in the future.

We met a number of interior designers before deciding to go with Collette. She was the only one we met, who genuinely accepted the budget we had available and listened when we outlined what we wanted and more importantly, what we didn’t want and the end design was the proof of this. Throughout the project, she came up with a variety of creative ways to ensure the project was within budget but without sacrificing the overall design. Collette has worked with us on our new bar extension, 8 new bedrooms as well as the renovation of our bridal and honeymoon suite. We are genuinely delighted with all the work she’s done and I hope to work with her again when we tackle the remaining areas.

We were finding it difficult to make a decision on how to update our kitchen and sitting room and were considering putting an extension on to the back of our house. A friend recommended that we contact Collette Ward Interiors for some advice. Boy were we glad! Collette came to the house, spent time looking around and listening to our ideas. She recommended that we didn’t go with the extension but rearrange our living space. It works so well now. Collette helped with selecting curtains, soft furnishing and colours but we always felt that she was very mindful and respectful of our tastes and guided us in the right direction. Where something could be reused and recycled she made creative recommendations and this in turned saved us money. The rooms were done very quickly, quicker that expected. Everything came on time and the whole process run so smoothly. We were absolutely delighted with the result. I would have no hesitation in recommending Collette Ward Interiors. It was a pleasure to deal with them and I’m sure our paths with cross again.

The very best design and service. An eye for detail and respect for individual taste means you can trust completely that you’ll love the end result. I believe every single remodelling or new build job can benefit from design input from Colette and Linda, getting it right at the beginning of a project will save a fortune in the long run.
