Testimonials

Kitchen Remodel

"Johanne Poulin goes the extra mile with clients as she diligently listens and makes sure she understands the needs of all. She is a great communicator, and uses her online tools to make sure everyone gets what they want, sees what they're purchasing, and understands all aspects of the project. Her unique design ideas enable her to create beautiful and functional spaces.

Kitchen & Bathroom Remodel

"Johanne goes well above and beyond in all areas of her business. We are delighted with the results of our remodel and owe that all to her for being the liaison between contractors and ourselves. She saved us countless hours in research, gave sound advice, designed some spectacular bathrooms and the kitchen, as well as our window treatments. She is very knowledgeable, works fast, and is dependable as well as efficient.

Award Winning Alamo Remodel

Johanne is meticulous when it comes to functionality and design in kitchens and bathrooms. We went through everything for my kitchen with a fine tooth comb and designed the space with workflow, functionality and practicality in mind. Johanne is a wealth of information for all those options.

She is also an extremely creative problem solver and worked well with our contractor with design changes due to construction and engineering needs. All in all, I can’t recommend Johanne Poulin/Project Guru enough! We love our home and all the choices that Johanne gave us the courage to make!!

Guest Bathroom Design & Remodel

"Johanne ccame through for us once again. She did another outstanding job of pulling all of our thoughts and taste together to design a magnificent and useful second bathroom. Her suggestions and design concepts are amazing.
Johanne follows through and follows up every step of the way. She takes the worry out of the project. Basically, she the best!

Technical Kitchen Design

"She helped us program every detail about the cabinets, appliance placement, room layout, lighting, etc., and I can't imagine trying to get a kitchen right without that sort of input. She even met with the cabinet seller for a long session nailing down every detail so the order arrived with no errors. One of our favorite things about our new kitchen is how usable every element is do to their placement and features.

She added tremendous value to our home, and was also very conscientious about both her own fee and our budget. Highly recommend her!"

Bathroom Remodel

Thanks to Johanne/Project Guru, our kitchen and master bedroom/bathroom are the most distinctive elements to our house, and we finished on budget and on time. We are incredibly happy and would recommend her highly.
