Novi kitchens

Kitchen Remodeling in Novi, MI

Seghi Renovations remodels kitchens for Novi homeowners who are ready to move past the builder-grade kitchen their home came with. We design the new layout, help you choose cabinets, countertops, tile and flooring, and manage every trade and permit through to the final inspection.

Updating the kitchens Novi's subdivisions were built with

Much of Novi grew up subdivision by subdivision. Established neighborhoods like Village Oaks were built in the 1970s and 1980s with colonials, ranches and bi-levels. Later communities, like the 1990s homes of Greenwood Oaks, brought bigger floor plans and larger lots. Each era left its own kind of kitchen behind.

In many older Novi homes, the kitchen is closed off from the family room, with soffits over the cabinets, a peninsula instead of an island and oak cabinets that have done their job for decades. In 1990s homes, the space is often there, but the finishes, lighting and storage feel dated. Bi-level homes add their own puzzle, with kitchens tucked between split levels where walls, stairs and ductwork all have to be planned around.

Popular kitchen upgrades for Novi homes

  • Removing soffits to gain full-height cabinets and more storage
  • Opening the wall between the kitchen and family room (after we check whether it's structural)
  • Replacing a peninsula with a center island and seating
  • Swapping builder-grade cabinets for custom or semi-custom cabinetry
  • New countertops, tile backsplashes and layered lighting
  • New flooring that runs continuously through the kitchen and nearby rooms

Permits and HOA rules in Novi

Kitchen remodels in Novi are permitted through the City of Novi Community Development Department on Ten Mile Road. Cosmetic updates usually don't need a permit, but plumbing, electrical, gas and wall changes do. Many Novi subdivisions also have homeowners associations. Interior kitchen work usually doesn't need HOA review, but exterior changes, like a new window or an exterior vent, can. We handle the city permits and inspections, and we'll flag anything your HOA may want to see.

Our Design Center at 440 N Lafayette St in South Lyon puts cabinetry, countertops, tile and flooring under one roof, so you can compare everything in one visit. Then we come to your Novi home to measure and walk through the plan. Call (248) 437-2454 to get started.

Aging in place

Aging-in-place kitchens for Novi homeowners

Seghi Renovations specializes in aging-in-place remodeling, and the kitchen is one of the best places to start. A well-planned kitchen lets you keep cooking, hosting and living independently in the home you love, now and for years to come. We design these kitchens to be safe and easy to use without looking clinical.

Ranch homes, like many in Novi's established subdivisions, are a natural fit for aging in place because daily life can stay on one floor. Bi-level and two-story homes take more planning, and we help you make the kitchen the easiest room in the house to use.

  • Pull-out shelves and drawers instead of deep, hard-to-reach cabinets
  • Counters at more than one height, for sitting or standing
  • Wider walkways that work with a walker or wheelchair
  • Bright task lighting and under-cabinet lighting
  • Slip-resistant flooring with smooth, level transitions
  • Easy-grip cabinet hardware and lever-style faucets
