In The D Construction is a full-service general contracting company serving homeowners throughout Detroit, Michigan, and surrounding Metro Detroit communities. We specialize in historic home restoration, residential remodeling, and custom construction, helping homeowners transform their properties while maintaining the character, craftsmanship, and architectural details that make each home unique.
Our approach is built around a simple idea: a renovation should improve the way a home functions without losing the qualities that give it personality. This is especially important when working with historic and older Detroit homes, where original woodwork, plaster, windows, trim, doors, and other architectural features can be an important part of the property’s identity. Rather than treating these details as obstacles, we approach them as opportunities to preserve and restore the home’s character while introducing thoughtful updates for modern living.
From smaller remodeling projects to comprehensive home renovations, In The D Construction provides experienced project coordination and construction services from the initial concept through completion. We work closely with homeowners to understand their goals, establish realistic project expectations, coordinate construction activities, and deliver carefully finished spaces that balance beauty, durability, comfort, and functionality.
Historic Home Restoration
Historic homes require a different level of attention than many conventional remodeling projects. Older properties often contain distinctive architectural elements, traditional construction methods, and materials that are no longer commonly used in modern construction.
At In The D Construction, we understand the importance of preserving these details whenever practical. Our historic home restoration work focuses on respecting the original character of a property while addressing the needs of today’s homeowners. Depending on the project, this may include restoring original windows, repairing plaster, preserving architectural trim, completing custom carpentry, renovating kitchens and bathrooms, or updating entire portions of a home.
The goal is not simply to make an older home look new. It is to create a carefully considered balance between restoration and modernization so homeowners can enjoy contemporary comfort without unnecessarily removing the features that make their property distinctive.
Residential Remodeling
A successful remodeling project should make a home work better for the people who live in it. Whether a homeowner wants to improve an outdated room, reconfigure an existing space, or renovate an entire property, In The D Construction provides residential remodeling services designed around each home’s specific needs.
Our remodeling experience includes kitchens, bathrooms, living spaces, bedrooms, basements, architectural details, and complete home renovations. We consider how materials, layouts, finishes, and construction decisions work together so that the finished project feels cohesive rather than simply assembled from individual upgrades.
We also recognize that remodeling can be disruptive to everyday life. Clear communication, organized project management, and careful planning are therefore important parts of our process. Our team works to keep projects organized from planning and budgeting through construction and final details.
Kitchen Remodeling
The kitchen is one of the most frequently used spaces in a home, and a well-planned kitchen renovation can improve both everyday functionality and the overall character of the property.
In The D Construction provides kitchen remodeling services for homeowners looking to update layouts, improve storage, modernize finishes, or create a more functional and comfortable gathering space. Projects may involve cabinetry, countertops, flooring, lighting, carpentry, fixtures, walls, and other construction elements.
For historic homes, kitchen remodeling can also involve finding the right balance between modern conveniences and existing architectural features. Our goal is to create a kitchen that supports contemporary living while remaining appropriate for the home’s overall design.
Bathroom Renovations
Bathrooms often require careful coordination between construction, plumbing, fixtures, surfaces, storage, and ventilation. A successful bathroom renovation should provide practical improvements while also creating a comfortable and visually cohesive space.
Our bathroom renovation services can range from targeted updates to more comprehensive remodeling projects. We work with homeowners to develop solutions that fit their property’s layout, style, functional requirements, and project goals.
When renovating bathrooms in older homes, we also pay attention to existing architectural conditions and construction details. This allows improvements to be made thoughtfully while considering the character and structure of the surrounding property.
Custom Carpentry
Custom carpentry is an important part of many remodeling and restoration projects, particularly in older Detroit homes. Existing architectural details may require repairs, modifications, or newly crafted components that cannot be addressed effectively with standard products.
In The D Construction provides custom carpentry as part of our broader construction and remodeling capabilities. Depending on the project, this may include trim work, built-ins, doors, architectural details, repairs, replacement components, and other custom elements.
Our focus is on creating work that integrates naturally with the existing home. When new or repaired carpentry is introduced into an older property, matching proportions, materials, profiles, and surrounding details can help the finished work feel intentional and consistent with the home’s architecture.
Plaster Restoration and Repair
Traditional plaster is an important architectural feature in many historic Detroit homes. Over time, plaster ceilings and walls can develop cracks, deterioration, holes, or other damage caused by age, moisture, movement, previous renovations, or general wear.
In The D Construction offers plaster restoration and repair as part of our historic renovation and residential remodeling services. We approach plaster work with attention to the existing material and surrounding architectural details rather than automatically replacing traditional plaster with modern alternatives.
Proper restoration can help preserve the appearance and character of older interiors while addressing damaged areas. For homeowners who value the original craftsmanship of their property, maintaining existing plaster can be an important part of a broader restoration strategy.
Window Restoration and Replacement
Windows can have a significant impact on both the appearance and performance of a home. In historic properties, original windows can also be important architectural features that contribute to the identity of the building.
Our window-related services include restoration and replacement solutions based on the condition and needs of each property. Where existing historic windows can be appropriately restored, restoration may help preserve original materials and architectural character. In other situations, replacement may provide a practical solution when windows are severely deteriorated or no longer suitable for the property’s needs.
We consider the home’s architecture, existing conditions, functionality, and homeowner priorities when determining the appropriate approach.
Complete Home Renovations
Some projects require more than a single-room remodel. In The D Construction also provides complete home renovation services for homeowners who want to transform multiple areas of their property as part of one coordinated project.
A whole-home renovation may involve kitchens, bathrooms, living spaces, bedrooms, basement areas, windows, plaster, carpentry, finishes, and other construction elements. Managing these components together can help create a more consistent result and allow construction decisions in one area to support improvements elsewhere in the home.
For older Detroit properties, comprehensive renovations can also provide an opportunity to address aging materials and construction conditions while updating the home for modern use.
Project Management From Concept to Completion
Construction involves many moving parts, and effective project management is essential to keeping a renovation organized. In The D Construction works with homeowners throughout the project lifecycle, beginning with planning and continuing through construction and final completion.
Our process can include discussing project goals, evaluating existing conditions, developing a construction plan, coordinating work, managing project details, and overseeing finishing touches. We believe homeowners should have a clear understanding of what is happening throughout their renovation.
Communication and attention to detail remain central to our approach. By coordinating the various aspects of a project, we aim to make the construction experience more organized and predictable while maintaining a strong focus on the quality of the finished work.
