Published ranges for the work we do most. Where you land inside one is mostly about selections — which is exactly what the consult and the design phase are for.
Layout, cabinets, and the mechanical work behind the walls nobody sees.
Most kitchens aren't limited by taste, they're limited by where the plumbing stack and the load-bearing wall are. We start with what the house will allow, design to it, and put the cabinet, counter, and appliance allowances in the contract so the budget doesn't quietly grow at the showroom.
Waterproofed properly, ventilated properly, finished beautifully.
The finishes are what you see; the waterproofing is what decides whether you do this again in eight years. We use a full waterproofing system behind tile, vent to the outside, and handle the unglamorous parts — subfloor, framing, supply lines — that a surface-level refresh skips.
More house — engineered, permitted, and tied in so it doesn't look added on.
An addition is a structural project wearing a remodel costume: foundation, framing, roof tie-in, and mechanical capacity. We work with an engineer, handle the permit and zoning set, and match rooflines and siding so the finished house reads as one building.
Dry first, then framed — egress, ceiling height, and code handled.
We won't frame a wet basement. Water management comes first, then egress windows if there's a bedroom, then framing that leaves access to the shutoffs and cleanouts you'll need someday. Ceiling height and duct routing get solved on paper before we buy lumber.
Old houses brought forward without losing what makes them worth keeping.
Knob-and-tube, plaster, settled framing, and a floor plan built for 1925. We phase the work so you can live in part of the house where that's possible, and we're honest early about what's worth restoring versus what's worth replacing.
Outdoor structures built to survive Michigan, not just to pass inspection.
Footings below frost line, flashing at the ledger done right, and framing sized for the span instead of for the lumber list. Composite or cedar, covered or open, with the permit pulled — because an unpermitted deck is a problem at closing.
Not sure which category your project is? That's a normal place to start.
