Home Alchemy provides styling services on the North West Coast of Tasmania (from Port Sorell to Wynyard). Please make contact to confirm availability in your area.

Our stylist visits your property and takes measurements and photos. This information is then used afterwards to plan the perfect style and select pieces tailored to your home. It is also used to provide you with a finalised quote.

A minimum of four weeks’ notice is required prior to staging to allow adequate time for planning and logistics. Booking as far in advance as possible is encouraged to ensure the best selection of furniture and décor items are available for your home.

Timing depends on the package and your home’s size. Consultations can be completed in an hour, while full installation typically takes 1-2 days.

No, you don’t need to be home. As long as access to the property has been arranged, all styling can take place without the property owner present. We’ll keep you updated throughout the process, and all communication can be handled easily via email or phone.

If you’ll be living in your home while it’s on the market, our Home Refresh Package is the perfect fit. This service works with your existing furniture and belongings to create a fresh, welcoming look that appeals to buyers.

Our other packages, which include furniture rental, are designed specifically for vacant, unfurnished homes.

Yes. For vacant, unfurnished homes, we offer our Premium Open Home Package and Essentials Styling Package, which include furniture rental to showcase the property beautifully. For sellers who are still living in their home, our Home Refresh Package is the dedicated option. This package refreshes and enhances your existing spaces without the need for rented furniture.

Styling services can extend to rental properties, provided the property is unoccupied during the furniture hire period. This ensures we can stage the space effectively and keep all items in top condition.

While styling services focus on enhancing your home’s look with furniture and décor, decluttering and cleaning are not included. It is recommended that these tasks be completed before our consultation to ensure your home is presented in the best possible light.

Styling is recommended in the main living areas—lounge, dining, kitchen, bathroom—and at least one bedroom. These key spaces have the greatest impact on buyers and help them envision the lifestyle your home offers.

Yes, you can extend the rental period on a weekly basis as long as the pieces are not already booked by other clients. Extension requests are happily accommodated whenever possible to support your selling timeline.

Not at this time. Currently, styling services focus exclusively on interior spaces.

We understand plans can change.

For styling packages, a full refund is offered if you cancel with more than four weeks’ notice. If cancellation occurs within four weeks of the scheduled service, a 50% refund applies.

Yes, delivery and removal of all furniture and décor items are included as part of our service. Home Alchemy handles the logistics so you can focus on preparing your home for sale.

During the initial consultation, our stylist takes detailed measurements and photographs of your space. This information guides our selection to ensure that all furniture and décor fit perfectly and complement your home’s style.

We understand plans can change. Please call or text us as soon as possible, and we’ll be happy to reschedule your appointment at a time that suits you.

Yes, professional staging has been shown to significantly increase the appeal of a home. According to the Real Estate Staging Association, staged homes sell 73% faster and often for 6–10% more than unstaged homes. Staging helps buyers visualize the potential of the space, making your property stand out in a competitive market.

All furniture and accessories are carefully chosen to showcase your home. While normal wear and tear is not charged, any damage beyond that (including pet hair and the smell of smoke) will be billed at the cost of cleaning, repair or replacement. A refundable security deposit is collected before staging begins and returned in full if all items remain in good condition. The ‘damages policy’ is clearly outlined in the styling contract you can review at time of booking.

Pets are welcome to be in the home, but please note that all furniture must be returned free of pet hair, free of pet odour, and without any damage. Clients will be responsible for cleaning costs or repairs resulting from pet-related damage.

Staging a home involves more than just furniture — it’s delivery, installation, styling, and making sure your space looks its absolute best for buyers. The 4-week minimum ensures your home has enough time on the market to shine through showings, open houses, and inspections. Most homes sell within this timeframe, but if needed, we can easily extend the staging period.

That’s great news! The 4-week minimum hire cost still applies (as this covers the cost of planning, installation and pack-down). While scheduling of furniture pack-downs is organised in advance, where possible pack-down earlier than the planned date will be accommodated.
