"Working with Geri and her entire team has been delightful. Despite the complications and stressors in remodeling a lake house 3 states away, Portfolio made it an easy and enjoyable project. After reviewing photos and asking lots of questions about how we live in our home, they quickly created fabulous solutions for our new kitchen, laundry, and baths that transform a place we love into a more welcoming gathering spot for our family and friends. They worked seamlessly with our job site contractor so we had no worries about Portfolio's ideas being executed. Their space planning and design suggestions solved all our cramped areas, and their recommendations for new materials, fixtures, and colors beautifully updated our home in the woods It's been a wonderful journey and we can't wait to begin enjoying all the new spaces in our most happy place!"

"When we set up our first appointment with Geri, she made us feel welcome and right at home with Portfolio. She introduced us to her team of Kelly and Brian and together they updated our kitchen with countertops, sinks, fixtures, and tile wall treatments which totally transformed the look of our kitchen. Their professionalism and ability to understand our style gave us a wrm fuzzy feeling of knowing that what they designed we would love, and we did. They searched and found a light fixture over the bar area that we LOVE and which is a visual focal point. We look forward to working with them on our bathroom project."

Our family couldn’t recommend Geri and her team at Portfolio more. They go above and beyond in every part of the renovation to make sure it turns out just the way you dreamed and more. We just finished up a kitchen and main level renovation and everything turned out absolutely perfect. Our family now feels at home in these beautiful and comfortable spaces. They made each part of the process easy and we can’t wait to use their services on more projects in the future. With Love, The Streb Family."

"Over the past few months of spending significantly more time at home, I am continuously reminded how much we LOVE the renovations that Portfolio has helped us make to our 1930s Brookside home. Geri and her team have come into our home twice over the past 4 years (kitchen and more recently the master bath). Originally, my husband and I walked into Portfolio not able to clearly articulate our exact vision for our kitchen/home. By our second meeting Geri and her team had our wish list and general vision figured out. By the end of the project they had helped us curate a totally renovated (5 small spaces combined into 1 open chef's kitchen), uniquely functional to our family and stunning kitchen that maintains the character of the home for us to enjoy. 4 years later, when we decided to renovate our master bath, returning to Portfolio was an easy decision and felt like returning home. 3 spaces combined into one, a new layout and gorgeous finishes later--we finally have a true master suite that we love."

"Portfolio helped us with a kitchen and 2 bathrooms renovation. We had an excellent experience from beginning to end. From the moment we walked into Portfolio’s beautiful showroom and studio, we knew we would be in good hands. Geri and her team brought us innovative solutions with high end results. They travel the world, literally, to bring top quality and new products to their clients that we typically don’t see in the Midwest. This, coupled with their attention to detail and commitment to customer service, makes them a stand out. They truly bring something unique to the community that is the complete opposite of the lack luster, cookie-cutter trends we’ve experienced with other businesses in the past. There were no surprises with the budget either...a hat tip to their trustworthy communication and excellent organization skills. You can expect a high end quality, unique, show-stopping product with customer service that goes above and beyond. Portfolio is a very well run business and their creative, amazing team gave us an incredible experience and fabulous, stylish home. We can highly recommend them and can’t wait to work with them again." _________________________

"We are very pleased with two projects Portfolio did for us. A third floor bathroom remodel in our turn of the century home and my new office. Geri , Kelly and Brian all poured everything into both projects. Each case we had a tight timeline to complete and they came through magnificently. They did not miss a single detail and we will definitely use them again. They were respectful of our budget and came in on time and on budget." _________________________

"Geri and her team created a dream condo for us. There isn’t a single thing we would change. Our project was a full renovation of a very large condo that hadn’t been touched since 1989. After the renovation Geri worked with us to furnish our condo. We love our home, entertain often, and get raves about our home when people see it for the first time. The kitchen was very important to me. Geri created a kitchen that is highly functional, contemporary, designed to cook in, entertain in, and eat in. Every detail of our project was thought about. Geri’s attention to detail is without compromise. Her team was so friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Geri and Portfolio for your kitchen bath or home project." _________________________

"Wait, are there more stars?? Portfolio has done 2 kitchens for me and I would never consider anyone else. Geri Higgins, founder and owner, is one of my favorite people personally and professionally on the planet. She has built such and extraordinary team that create the most beautiful, functional and high quality kitchens. Let me be clear, I am not an easy client. I always come into a project with quality demands, and time/ budget restrictions. They always come through with a smile. I often drive by their yard signs and think to myself, 'Oh, that lucky family. They will be so pleased'."

"We are so happy with our Portfolio-designed kitchen! Geri, Kelly and Brian took us through a well-organized process to identify our needs and wants. They were creative in designing our completely remodeled kitchen space and were technical experts to get all of the details just right. We shared lots of laughs in what could have been a really stressful renovation. The end result is a beautiful, light-filled, and functional hub for our family. We would definitely partner with Portfolio again for another home renovation project."

"Wow. Geri and her team are rock stars. My wife and I were buying a new home and knew we wanted to do some remodeling. Geri took on our project, expanded our horizons on what could be done and they exceeded our expectation. We remodeled the kitchen from a boring dated design to a stunning beautiful kitchen, we remodeled the master bathroom to a beautiful spa like experience and updated two bathrooms, plus much more. During this time, they took the time to get to know us and what the style we were looking for. Further they wanted to help us create a home that was an expression of us. Geri shared and educated us on how the details from sconces to cabinet hardware can really elevate a space. Geri and her team went above and beyond with us. We had a big project and a short timeline to get it done. She helped us with finding and negotiating with a contractor for the project to spending many hours in meetings and watching over our project to making sure everything was done right. The entire Portfolio team from Geri to Kelly to Brian were fantastic and always there to answer our question, listen to our concerns and to make sure that we ended up with a house that we loved. We are so happy with our new home and we love showing it off. Thank you to Geri and the Portfolio team for giving us a home we love."
