Welcome to Refinery Home Staging

Refine. Reveal. Reimagine.

Helping Buyers Fall in Love — One Room at a Time

At Refinery Home Staging, we transform properties into polished, purposeful spaces that leave a lasting impression on potential buyers. Whether it’s a vacant house waiting for its story to be told, or a lived-in space needing refinement, our team brings out the full potential in every home we touch.

With over 13 years of experience in the industry, we know that buyers make decisions emotionally — often within the first moments of viewing a space. Our job is to ensure what they see and feel encourages that connection.

When your home is staged with intention, it doesn’t just look beautiful — it stands out, shows better, sells faster, and often commands a stronger price.

And beyond staging, ask us about our extended services in interior renovations, architectural design, and real estate strategy.

What We Do Best

Tailored Staging Services That Deliver Real Results

Every home is different. Every seller has different needs. We offer flexible, high-impact staging options designed to fit your property, timeline, and goals.

Vacant Home Staging

An unfurnished home often leaves buyers confused about layout, scale, and function. We address that by installing expertly curated furniture, artwork, lighting, and décor to define every space with warmth and purpose. The result: a listing that photographs beautifully and shows even better in person.

Occupied Home Staging

Selling while still living in the home? We work with your existing furniture, edit and re-style it for optimal appeal, and supplement as needed with key pieces from our inventory. It’s an ideal solution when you want maximum effect without a full install.

Home Staging Consultations

For homeowners who prefer to handle staging on their own, we offer detailed consultations. Our team provides a step-by-step plan to get your property market-ready — including layout improvements, color recommendations, decluttering strategies, and styling advice.
We also offer guidance for sellers planning ahead or working with tight budgets.

The Power of Professional Staging

Professionally staged homes consistently sell faster and closer to asking price — or above. Why? Because staging helps buyers visualize themselves in the home, understand the scale of rooms, and feel emotionally invested.

Presentation is no longer optional. In today’s online-first real estate world, it’s essential.
