Our Interior Design Services
Design That Completes the Build: Why Interior Design Belongs at Slate Creek
When people think about hiring an interior designer, the most obvious benefit is expertise. At Slate Creek Builders, we understand scale and proportion, how materials and textures work together, lighting needs, color relationships, and how all of those elements come together to create a cohesive, functional space.
But there’s much more to interior design than many homeowners initially realize.
Access You Simply Don’t Have on Your Own
One of the most overlooked benefits of working with an interior designer is access. We have relationships with countless furniture, rug, lighting, and décor vendors that do not sell directly to the public. That means you’re no longer limited to what’s available at big-box stores, online retailers, or local furniture showrooms.
If you’ve ever found the perfect piece online—only to realize it comes in the wrong color, fabric, size, or finish—you’ve experienced this limitation firsthand.
Hands-On Samples, In Your Home
Interior design isn’t just about picking things on a screen. We work to procure real samples whenever possible so you can touch, feel, and compare finishes and fabrics in your own home, with your lighting and surroundings.
This is especially important for upholstery. Instead of being stuck with the one fabric a chair or headboard comes in, we can create custom upholstery in a wide range of colors, textures, and styles—right down to mixed and matched throw pillows or contrasting trim. Suddenly, that “almost perfect” piece becomes exactly right.
Design Support at Any Scale
A common misconception is that you need a massive project to justify hiring a designer. That simply isn’t true.
We can help with:
A single room
Furniture and textiles only
Art, accessories, and lighting
Or a fully layered, finished space
We also help with whole-home design schemes, which is especially valuable if:
You don’t know where to start
You’re moving into a new home and need to furnish it
You’re finishing a basement or addition
You want connecting rooms to feel more cohesive
Wherever you are in the process, we help bring clarity and direction.
Thoughtful Budget Management
We don’t just pick beautiful things—we help you plan smartly. We guide you in understanding what to budget per room or per project, then create a design scheme that aligns with those goals. The result is fewer costly mistakes and a more intentional use of your investment.
Why We Added Interior Design Services to Slate Creek
At Slate Creek Builders, adding interior design services was a natural evolution.
We found ourselves building additions, remodeling kitchens, and finishing beautiful spaces—then helping clients select rugs, furniture, and finishes using the same limited options available to anyone shopping online. That didn’t make sense.
We are an award-winning design-build team. By bringing interior design resources in-house through Slate Creek Interiors, we can better serve our remodeling and new-construction clients—whether that’s selecting the perfect bar stools for a kitchen we just completed or furnishing an entirely new space.
Even more importantly, this allows us to extend these services to the entire New River Valley community. Through Slate Creek Interiors, a division of Slate Creek Builders/SCB Homes, we now offer deeper resources, better access, and a more seamless experience—whether you’re renovating, building, or simply ready to love your home a little more.
