New Built in desk and bookshelf

This built in desk and bookshelf combo is a custom design specifically. built for this beautiful Okemos, Mi home.

Some clients said they have been frustrated with finding furniture for a room for years before deciding to get a built-in. A desk and shelf combo like the one here is something we can come to your house and measure, then build in our warehouse, and install only when you are ready. That way we minimize the impact to your schedule and maximize the smile you'll have with your new space!

From water damage to dream kitchen!

This kitchen was remodeled by us after taking some serious water damage. A “water loss” is what your insurance company calls it when water destroys a part of your home. It can come in through a leaky roof or from a busted pipe and if it isn’t caught, it can unfortunately ruin large areas of your home.

This is why homeowner’s insurance is so crucial. Your insurance company will send in a mitigation team to dry out the area that was effected and from there, you can work with an experienced builder to begin repairs.

In this home, we worked with the homeowners to to not just bring their kitchen back, but to help make it a kitchen they will love for years to come. Here, we started from the ground up - selecting flooring and trim with the homeowner, then counters and cabinets, like the gorgeous cabinet set around the refrigerator! Speaking of refrigerators, we then helped them with appliances and finally the sink, faucet and backsplash!

Working on the interior design with the homeowners is the best way to not just give back your space and quality of life, it’s the best way to improve it and turn a home nightmare into a dream kitchen!

Finished basement in just 5 weeks

Five weeks ago, this was a basement - concrete, dark and useful mostly for storage. Now this Mason home has a ton of new, warm square footage to use for anything they want.

We have made finishing basements a cornerstone of what we do over the last few years and we can take your basement with it’s cobwebs and it’s darkness - and we can turn it into something that brings real quality of life to your home. Whether it’s space to rent out, additional bedrooms, a home theater, office space, a in-law apartment or a gym, we can do it. It’s time to make the home you’re in into your dream home!

In just a few weeks, your home could change like this one!

Commercial Property in Lansing completed! Our first full commercial job!

We had the opportunity to perform commercial work on a beautiful property in Lansing. We worked the framing, trim, carpeting, plumbing, electrical, cabinets counters, paint, electrical, that beautiful ceiling and project management over the course of the project. While it’s still wrapping up, we wanted to share these photos from the property owner because commercial is something we’ve only recently branched out into over the last few years.

This building is round with a domed ceiling and the owners wanted to have that shape be present in the design (instead of square rooms in a round building). That is neither the most cost effective or easiest route, but for them it was about the character of the original building and I think that paid off for them.

Our team and the pros we work with are proud of the work done here and we look forward to showing you the finished photos of the property soon!

Custom flooring and shoe

We’ve replaced the flooring, added new shoe moulding and done some painting to bring this old kitchen back to life! The dark floors and paint balance well with the cabinets and appliances to make the home look warm and inviting!

Floors are more than just another surface, they set the tone for any room because they occupy most of the space your eye sees as it passes over the room, so the color of your floors make a huge difference in how the furniture, decor or cabinets are perceived. Take a look around your home and see how your floors influence the feel of each room!

Custom built-in bench in new construction home

We have installed and painted this built in for an entry way in a new construction home. All that’s left is for the homeowner to select hardware. This built-in feature is great for taking your jacket off, hanging it up, then sitting down to take off your wet shoes. You can then store the shoes under the bench.

These sort of built-in features are great for existing homes too because we can build them in our warehouse, away from your home and then install them in a day - no hassle, no construction zone in your house - it’s like ordering from Amazon, but this is made in America by serious craftsmen!

A basement living room for a student

Loving where you live is a concept many of us have gotten more familiar with in the last year. This basement went from a concrete, dark room to a beautiful space.

This week, we’ve posted about the other rooms, but today, we are checking out the main room. This main room has a place for cold drinks, counter space and a ton of room for a young student to live at home or really anything these homeowners can imagine. From the lights to the carpeting and the walls, all the work was done by our team, who have now finished over a dozen basements in the last year and a half.

Please check out our other posts this week for the bedroom and study from this basement project. We are really proud of the work our team is done and would love to inspire new basement projects!

A basement office for an Okemos home

Love finished basements? So do we! This office nook is a custom feature, designed to meet the needs and specifications of our homeowner. This could be a place for a college student to do their homework in a “home-not-so-far-away-from-home” or it could be a private suite for remote work. If you can imagine it, we can build it.

Everything from floor to ceiling (minus furniture) was done by our team. Our project manager, GT, worked with the homeowners to select flooring, colors and features. This basement has gone from a concrete storage bin to a place you’d love to spend time in!

We will be featuring different rooms from this basement all week, so check back with us for more of this great home or check out our recent posts!

A beautiful basement bedroom

We just finished a basement in Okemos. This basement has now become a beautiful, private part of the home with its own living room, office, bathroom and the bedroom featured in this post!

Everything from floor to ceiling (minus furniture) was done by our team. Our project manager, GT, worked with the homeowners to select flooring, colors and features. It all came together so well.

We will be featuring different rooms from this basement all week, so check back with us for more of this great home!

A Call Back From A Former Customer For A Basement Room

We had a former client call us back to do more work in their Okemos home. This time we added a room’s worth of finished basement to their property! Adding space is a very popular choice right now and I think this will help you not only add value, but also add to your quality of life in the home.

A Custom Built in Book Shelf Replaces Wood Stove

This custom, built-in bookshelf was once a nook for a wood stove, but the homeowner wanted something else. Let’s face it, woodstoves are great if you use them, but if you don’t, then they take up a lot of space. Take a look at the spaces that you don’t use - is there something better you could do with that space? Maybe a built-in feature is right for you. It can be hard to imagine the possibilities, which is why we are happy to come out and help you find a solution that fits your tastes.
