Testimonials

Gisele Grenier Miller of Altered Spaces-Altered Lives helped my client prepare his mother's home for sale quickly and efficiently. There were many "treasures" that needed to be evaluated and sold in a timely manner. Gisele called the experts to evaluate the art work, china and the silverware. Gisele and her hard working staff were able to organize the contentsof the home and prepare it for sale quickly and efficiently. We sold the home in just three days for 97% of the list price! I am confident that we wouldn't have been able to do it without Gisele and the staff at Altered-Spaces-Altered Lives. Thank you Gisele!

I would definetly recommend Gisele!!

We had been living in our home for 18 years and were preparing to sell our house and move out of province. We hired Gisele Grenier Miller of Altered Spaces-Altered Lives to help prepare our home for sale. We couldn't have done it without her! Gisele has the ability to walk into your home and know exactly what has to be done for it to show well and sell quickly. She is a focused, efficient person with a high energy level. We sold our house in 3 days with multiple offers! Thank you Gisele!!!!

Moving can be a source of stress in one’s life, but with Altered Spaces-Altered Lives I found my move was quite easy and stress-free. I moved from a single home to a town home not too long ago. Early on moving day, the team first packed up all the boxes with my kitchen articles, drove ahead of the large moving truck to my new home and before I could blink an eye, had installed everything in my new kitchen. Not only that, but they also helped me with unpacking and within a few weeks my new home was organized, paintings and drapes were hung, clothes and linens were organized in my closets, and empty boxes were removed. All this done by the cheerful and professional team of Altered Spaces-Altered Lives. My new home looked almost instantaneously as if I had been in it forever! I highly recommend this company with its expert team to make your moving experience stress-free.
