Wolverine Contracting Design+Remodel is a residential remodeling contractor that merges your vision with our quality. Amongst the various services our company offers, we specialize in Kitchen, Bathroom and Basement remodeling. Our unique process of contracting opens the door to savings for all clients, thus cushioning their budget and allowing them to maximize renovation potential while maintaining attention to detail. We’re focused on building relationships with our clients. Our goal is to deliver a clear and transparent contracting experience. Integrity, communication, customer service and catering to the requirements of each client is a priority. We’ll provide a cleanly, safe and well-organized project environment while ensuring our high quality of craftsmanship. General Liability and Worker’s Compensation Insurance is a standard for our company. With 35+ years in the building trades we stand behind the work we perform and have the references to back it up. Wolverine is Sustainably conscious, and we believe it’s vital to purchase our remodeling materials locally from trusted suppliers and small businesses. As often as possible, our company utilizes environmentally friendly green building supplies, reclaimed materials, Top-Grade Low VOC, Zero VOC, LEED approved primers, paints & finishes. * Hourly & Day Labor rates are available upon request.

"Wolverine Contracting Design + Remodel provided us with exceptional craftsmanship for our renovation. They weren’t our cheapest option but their unique cost-plus process of contracting, clear & transparent labor rates and discounts saved us thousands on our projects. We have never seen a company operate in this manner, but it just made complete sense to us, and it works extremely well. Along the way we were a bit indecisive and made a few changes which added work to the original scope, increased our budget and timeline, however Douglas immediately shifted into another gear and was able to incorporate our changes within the original design. He is extremely honest, trustworthy and knowledgeable of his trade. His communication skills and integrity were second to none. I don’t know how he handles all the stress, but he makes it look easy. All team members and subcontractors were respectful of us and our home and a pleasure to work with as well. We highly recommend Wolverine Contracting and will be contacting them for any future projects."

FAQs for custom home building projects in Brighton, MI

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200

The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour. 

Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
