"My wife and I hired Sabrina as our General Contractor & Designer to help us remodel our 2700sf home in Lake Forest for sale. As a previous Real Estate Broker and with her 30 years of remodel experience, she identified the changes that were needed to maximize the resale value.

Sabrina made our home look like a model home at a very reasonable cost and in very short order.  They were done with our 2-story 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 3 fireplace home from ceilings to floors in just under 3 months!

I would highly recommend you hire her team to remodel your home for resale.  She did a great job for us!  Our home had 21 offers within 3 days and sold within 7 days and gained 3x the amount we invested to remodel selling for $380,000 more than we would've had we not moved forward with the remodel! Thank you Sabrina!"

--Bill D., Lake Forest, CA

"Sabrina and her team have done an amazing job for my remodel projects! We started with the remodel of my fireplace then I had them remodel my master bathroom.  Those turned out so great that I had them redesign and update the entire kitchen and lighting plan.  The amount of storage they were able to give me from that redesign was incredible!  I had spaces I didn't know I needed!  The Designing Women of Orange County team ended up remodeling my entire home due to their professionalism, knowledge and customer service. Whether it’s a basic or a major remodel project, I would highly recommend the team at Designing Women of Orange County."

–Jeff Z., Mission Viejo, CA

“Sabrina Phillips of Designing Women is simply sensational. She is smart, always has super great ideas, and really knows how to blend colors.  She's always economical and makes the process easy as she handles all the details and contracting. She is also a terrific stager, a true window covering expert and overall is simply a joy to work with. Contracting with her has been one of my best decisions ever. She suggested I spend $15,000 to update my home before selling it. We listed it for $60,000 more than we would’ve and actually sold it for $55,000 OVER asking price within 7 days!! I’m making an additional $115,000 on my home! I wish I knew her years ago.”

–Jim G., Trabuco Canyon, CA

“I hired Sabrina to remodel my home in Corona Del Mar, CA and am so glad to have FINALLY found an Interior Designer who's also a General Contractor that knows what she’s doing AND listens to her client’s needs and wants. She designed, contracted, and managed our entire project (over 3,000sf) which left us free to do what we needed to do--go on vacation! She was on-time, detail-oriented, honest, and a very strong communicator–VERY easy to work with! I’d had other experiences that did not go well at all so I was very leery about hiring another designer. I’m so glad she was referred to me by 3 different realtors! Thank you for turning our outdated home into a modern piece of art!

–Janice B., Corona Del Mar, CA 

“We worked with Sabrina and Wow, what a great decision we made! She is an incredibly talented, amazing designer! Her taste and expertise helped us design our newly acquired home and we couldn’t be happier! She helped us pick everything out and made it a stress-free experience for us. Every presentation she showed us was impeccable and thoroughly thought out. She made sure to take the time to find out what we liked and then helped our vision become reality. She kept all lines of communication open from emailing to phone calls to text messages. Best decision we have ever made was hiring her. From the blinds, the shutters, the art on the walls, the rugs on the floor, the accessories, you name it–she helped our house become a home. Book her already! You will have no regrets!”

–Jamie P., Capistrano Beach, CA

“I put my house up for sale and literally got zero bites for 4 months! Resistant to the idea of staging and painting my red walls, but in desperation, I hired Sabrina to stage it. It was AMAZING! She used all my own things but somehow the results she produced made the house look inviting, homey and like a designer showplace! (We thought about staying!) And…it sold in 2 weeks! Brilliant and fun to work with. I’d do it again in a heartbeat.”

–Karen S., Irvine, CA

“Sabrina is a very talented stager! Best money ever spent on this service! She had my client’s home in shape in no time and it sold in UNDER 2 weeks! I’ve since used her on other homes and she’s done it time after time. Her skills and knowledge of the real estate industry as a previous Broker Realtor and current ASID Interior Designer, coupled with her results-driven system, Totally Works!!  We'll be using Designing Women of OC again soon!”

–Stephanie V., Realtor

“Sabrina rocks! She and her team of designers are very knowledgeable about design and remodeling.  I was impressed with Sabrina's vast experience and knowledge of the real estate industry as a Broker + Color Forecaster for Sherwin Williams + years as an ASID Interior Designer + being a female who is a General Contractor!  She also provides and is very knowledgeable about windows, blinds, shutters and draperies.  Her team of designers do an awesome job of designing your space too--no matter how big or small. The entire team at Designing Women of OC is easy to get along with and they make their clients the top priority.  I definitely recommend contacting them for your next job!”

She has a passion for everything she does and is well skilled at all of it! I highly recommend Sabrina and her team to anyone looking for a talented design build remodeling company.”

–Tom Kadar, Realtor/Sotheby’s, Laguna Beach, CA

“Fun & Knowledgeable! A job Well Done! I did not get the “decorator gene” and have been living in my place for several months with no window coverings, having anxiety just thinking about having to choose drapes, curtain rods, sashes, etc. for my windows. Not to mention measuring and actually installing them myself. Sabrina came over and made short order of my dilemma and I had beautiful window coverings in no time that really finished off my living room and bedroom! She made it fun, painless and took all the guesswork out if the process for me. Thank you so much!”

–Kelly Chaplin, Realtor/Realty One Group, Laguna Niguel, CA

“Sabrina Phillips helped me find the current products from Hunter Douglas and offers other manufacturers that saved me money.  I found out she’s had her own design build firm with the offerings of window coverings since 1991 and she really knows her stuff. She’s excellent with fabrics and custom draperies and bedspreads as well and really is awesome.

As an ASID Interior Designer and General Contractor, she’s excellent with remodeling. .. one room or a whole house, she designs your perfect space and manages your entire project saving you time, stress, and money!  I have really enjoyed working with her. She truly is a professional in all areas of home design.”

–Michael B., Laguna Niguel

“Our home remodel was designed and managed by Sabrina Phillips. She has an incredible eye and came up with terrific ideas that really enhanced our living experience such as adding larger doors and windows to allow more light into our home. She was always punctual and detail oriented AND kept in constant communication with us as to the progress of our project! We could go to work and go on vacation, feeling safe to leave her our house keys while she and the contractor worked on what became a piece of art! We are truly delighted with the finished product!”

–Melody M., Newport Coast, CA

“I’ve hired many so-called stagers in the past 15 years but no one has an eye for home staging like Sabrina Phillips! She’s done 6 homes for me thus far. She’s fast, concise, pays attention to details and gets my clients’ FAST results…which means faster turn around and, on several homes, a higher asking price due to the change in perceived value! I’m impressed and I WILL be calling you again Sabrina for my next home!”

–Brad B., Developer/Realtor, Lake Mission Viejo, CA

“Just love working with Sabrina for all my design needs. They (Designing women of Orange County) know interior design so well as they listen to what I liked and implemented what is new and stylish. They are by far the best design firm for getting the right look for your home!  Aside from the remodel, we also bought shutters and  love them as we feel it’s the only window coverings that increase the value of the home. I never knew the difference between custom drapes over the store bought off the shelf till the ones that were designed just for my home arrived and where installed and wow, that just made the room. Thank you guys again for all of your help.”

–James T, Huntington Beach, CA

“If you are looking for a great interior designer, I highly recommend Sabrina with Designing Women. She is professional and really listens to what you say. After I moved, she came to evaluate my home and helped me figure out the best way to utilize my space. She helped me stay within my budget with her recommendations.  Sabrina really knows her business and is such a pleasure to work with. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a professional interior designer.”

–Sarah N., Laguna Hills, CA

–Amanda E., Aliso Viejo, CA

“My wife and I hired Sabrina to help us redecorate and rearrange our home. She was very quick to understand our needs. She almost immediately identified the little changes we could make in the flow of the furniture, the color scheme of the house, and the little things we could add to improve things, which ultimately made a huge impact in the look and feel of our home (and we LOVE it now). Sabrina can make your home look like a model home at a very reasonable cost, I would highly recommend her. Thank you Sabrina!”

You can count on her to be on time and very helpful with her expertise in design.  She will guide you all the way through the process!”

–Karen B., Realtor, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

“I had Sabrina out to measure for a new shade in my office . She was prompt, informative, and had an excellent selection of products to choose from. Her customer service is excellent. I was so happy with the shade that when I needed shutters for a bedroom, I called her ! She knows her stuff, is competitively priced and has great follow up! 5 stars for Sabrina and Designing Women of OC!”

–Susan P., Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

“I had Sabrina provide window coverings for essentially my entire upstairs. She was knowledgeable, friendly and patient with all the questions I had. She offered me many options, and I ultimate elected to go with shutters. They look great! I couldn’t be happier with the product and attention I received. Thank you Sabrina and Designing Women!”

–Diane P., Mission Viejo, CA

“If you’re looking for a great general contractor and designer than I would highly recommend Sabrina. She is very down to earth, easy to talk to and she really listens to what your likes and dislikes are when it comes to decorating. Unlike some designers who simply listen to what you tell them you like but then proceed pushing their own agenda in decorating. Sabrina helped me with blinds and drapes as well as redoing and updating many rooms in my home. I like that Sabrina is cost conscious and doesn’t always push the most expensive designer ideas and she helps me to stay within budget but ensures I will end up with a beautiful room.”

–Nancy L., Coto de Caza, CA

“I had Sabrina at my home to help me with staging, including paint color throughought. She picked a great color in 5 minutes. I followed all her recommendations and my home sold in a matter of hours! She really has a talent!”

–Tracy E., Irvine, CA
