Cost per square foot is a useless number.

A kitchen and a bedroom are not the same room. One is stacked with plumbing, cabinetry, stone, tile, appliances. The other is a blank box. Averaging them tells you nothing about what your home will actually cost.

So here’s the real math. Full home renovation in Metro Detroit, Clark and Aldine: $700K to $2M+.

Swipe through for how the number is built, what lands you in each tier, and where preconstruction actually saves you money.

Small room, long schedule, and more decisions per square foot than anywhere else in the house. The brief was durable, fun, and not something they’d outgrow in two years. We kept the palette tight and let the tile do the work. Two kids use this bathroom every single day. It needed to be able to take a beating and still look good.

Introducing a new weekly series: The Real Cost.

Every week, we’re breaking down what renovations actually cost in Metro Detroit, not the Pinterest version, not the “it depends” non-answer. Real ranges from real projects we’ve built.

First up: primary bathrooms. We start at $75K. The top end runs past $175K. Here’s what determines where you land in between.

Save this before you get a single quote. What space are you thinking about?

Hardware is the jewelry of the kitchen and we almost went a different direction entirely.

We presented three options. Brushed brass. Matte black. Unlacquered brass. Each one took the space somewhere completely different. We ended with vintage hardware found in London paired with handmade pieces for each space. Each space has its one personality. That was the point.

We said what we said.

Open shelving isn’t about looks. It’s about how a kitchen feels to live in. Swipe for the four rules we follow (and the one time we break them).

The island does three things. Most people only design for one. Nadine cooks and she hosts those are two different needs. The island handles both. The nook was a bump-out we added specifically for the breakfast area. On paper it’s not a big number. In person, it changes everything about how the kitchen feels.

You walk in and you should feel it immediately. This was a closed-off entry that stopped you at the door. We opened the wall between the entryway and kitchen, and the whole first floor changed.

That’s not a cosmetic fix. That’s a structural decision that sets up every other room in the house.
