Wolverine Contracting Design+Remodel merges your vision with our quality. 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."

We are a Southeast Michigan and Traverse City/Petoskey award winning carpentry, trim carpentry, acoustic ceiling, and drywall company. . Serving Oakland, Macomb, Wayne, Monroe, Livingston, Grand Traverse, Antrim, Emmet & Washtenaw Counties and beyond!

"Multi saved the day on my renovation project. It was absolutely disastrous! In the middle of my renovation, the carpenter that was referred to me by a fellow colleague walked off on the job. No warning and no reason, I was left with only ½ of my home remodeled, while my family and I were stranded in a small rental home waiting to return. Spencer and his team came to the rescue. In the matter of a few days his contractors were finishing projects and fixing several mistakes made by the previous carpenter. I was able to move back into our home on time without issue. Spencer’s people were clean, courteous and responsive. I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone who wants to get the job done right the first time. Thank you, Spencer, you are a real champ. Mike Sher, Max Broock Realtors, Associate Broker"

"They did great work when they were working but had to push them and follow up constantly. They did not communicate well with me about delays in the various steps of the project or changes with the planned work schedule."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage. 

A board foot is a volumetric unit and is primarily used for pricing and planning larger projects where volume is a factor. Pricing lumber by the board foot aids in understanding exactly how much wood you’re purchasing, as volume is a more accurate unit of measurement compared to square feet.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

Metal carports are commonly made from steel or aluminum, offering durability and low maintenance.

The national average cost of a building permit is about $1,600, but this number includes extensive renovations. Homeowners typically spend between $150 and $2,000 in general on one or multiple permits for their project. Conversely, permits for simple projects, such as minor electrical renovations, could cost as little as $10.
