Michigan Building & Design

Jason remodeled our master bathroom. The workmanship and quality were excellent. Jason was easy to work with and was prompt and completed the project in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Jason And Michigan building and design. And hope to use them again.

I cannot say enough good things about Jason. We hired him to remodel our kitchen in 2020 and were so pleased with his workmanship and professionalism that we had him come back to remodel our family room and bathroom (as well as some smaller projects simultaneously). Jason keeps his customers informed of schedules and delays every step of the process and most importantly he does what he says he is going to do. I heard so many horror stories from friends about contractors but did not experience any of that myself. Even though our kitchen remodel occurred after the initial covid lockdowns which caused delays beyond Jason's control, we still felt our job was completed in a very timely fashion. I also appreciate that Jason is on site managing the project and guaranteeing that the work is done well and correctly. I been burned by companies who sent shoddy sub-contractors and did not check the job when it was completed. Jason was a refreshing change from that.

This was a pretty major project because we moved walls and changed the layout of two floors of our house. We made a mudroom and Laundry room combo out of a hallway and laundry room. We also enlarged a lavatory and changed the entry point. Then we gutted and enlarged a second-floor bathroom. Jason and his team did an amazing job with such a large project that involved touching all the major systems in the house. We also had them replace all the 50-year-old copper pipe with PEX and a manifold system on half the house. Jason and his team did an awesome Job keeping the dust as minimal as possible considering how much of the house was worked on and our open floor plan. He also had good ideas and allowed changes along the way without having to go through a formal change order process. He gave a clear dollar amounts for the changes requested and also came up with good solutions to solve our problems that were less costly. He handled ordering our bathroom cabinets and the granite counter tops, we just needed to go to the show rooms and make style selections. We can't wait for Jason and his team to do the next phase of remodeling where we will be reconfiguring our master suite and creating an amazing master bathroom.

Remodeled newly purchased condominium. Reached out to several contractors and selected MB&D, local to Royal Oak. I selected this company because of craftsmanship and quality of work I read in previous reviews. That was my criteria #1. Price wise moderate, but not too pricey. Discussed with Jason the scope of work that was completed in aproximately 1.5 months. Great personality, both Jason and Brian. Completed: Guest bathroom complete remodel, powder room, all other faucets, mirrors, interior/barn doors/hardware, all light fixtures, wall plates/recepticals/switches, recessed lights, wiring and TV above fireplace, kitchen backslash, garage tile/drywall/paint, etc. At the end they delivered exactly why I selected them for, craftsmanship and quality!

Jason and Brian arrived each morning promptly. After each day, area cleaned, tools removed. Friendly and professional, took me to granite warehouse and cabinet store. Previously Jason remodeled our bathroom, with excellent results. Would never hesitate to hire him for any future remodeling.

Jason and his team did a fantastic job. They were always on time, very polite and respectful, and worked very hard to finish the project in the agreed timeframe. Jason's price was very fair for the job. There were lower and higher quotes, but I was not confident in the work I was going to receive from the lowest bidder. I'm very happy I spent a few extra dollars to get the quality of service and craftsmanship MBD delivered. I have already referred several friends and family to MBD for their future remodeling needs. FYI, Jason runs a small team and has quite a bit of demand. He wasn't able to get back to me as quickly as I hoped when first requesting quotes, but once I had contracted MBD for the job he was very responsive. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up in case they reach out to MBD. Jason is very attentive to his clients and since his operation is small, sometimes that means he can't get to quotes as fast as he'd like.

Jason and his crew were very punctual. The work performed was of very good quality. They always cleaned up the site at the end of day. It did take longer than expected because of an error with the grout, but Jason was the one to bring up the mistake and he fixed it right away. I was very impressed with his honesty. I had never done a project of this size and have heard horror stories of dishonest contractors. Jason is one of the good ones. I would hire him again with no qualms.

Excellent! From the beginning, Jason provided great ideas on ways to best utilize cabinet space for our new kitchen. We were unsure about creating a double counter peninsula. Jason went above and beyond and built a temporary plywood structure so we could visualize and get a "feel" for size and usability...we now love our double counter space!! Great to work with in style, communication, responsiveness and making sure customer is happy!!

Michigan Building and Design was brought in to correct a project "gone wrong". (An unethical, incompetent builder had started the remodel in November doing work he was unlicensed to do and virtually doing every bit of work he WAS licensed to do wrong). Jason took on the project, inheriting a plumber and electrician from the first builder and had to correct and rip out all work which had been done to date. He was professional , pleasant and competent. Most important was his ability to get the project back on track , sometimes working with extremely unreasonable and unprofessional people (going back to "inheriting an electrician and plumber). The project was completed in good time, looks great and I know was done to meet all structural and safety regulations . Jason was the voice of calm and sanity, taking on something that had started SO badly and turning it around and bringing it to completion.

Jason was very patient and supportive while helping us deal with our insurance company with whom we had been having a difficult time getting our claim approved. When Jason and his crew of Brian and Frank were able to start the work, they did a wonderful job. They always were on time and very pleasant and easy to work with. They never left a mess and were true professionals and highly skilled in remodeling and building. We are going to have Jason and Company remodel our kitchen next and would not even consider having anyone else do the job. Thank You Angie's List for helping us find this great company, Michigan Building & Design and Thank You Jason, Brian and Frank for a job well done, we are more than pleased. John & Pauline Schiiller

Jason and Brian were a pleasure to work with! We had been searching for the right contractor for years, and postponed the project again and again after disappointing meetings with other companies. We were impressed from the initial meeting with the owner. He listened to us-- he didn't try to force a design on us, or talk us out of anything we wanted. He came back to us right away with a very reasonable, straight forward quote, and a great design. We bought our own fixtures and appliances, & they installed them for us. The guys were very professional: punctual, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, worked quickly and accurately & cleaned up after themselves! Plus, they were absolute gentlemen. We have young children and pets; I felt very comfortable during the whole remodel process. We are now the proud owners of an HGTV worthy kitchen :-)

The meeting went well. He took all measurements and said he would provide an estimate in 2 weeks. No estimate was received. Phone calls and messages were never returned. No estimate was ever received.

Number on website was disconnected too. I guess they are out of business.

Primary phone listed here on Angie's list, and on their web site is disconnected. No one answered on secondary phone number. Sketch.

Jason and Brian did everything right on time , they complete bathroom remodel on my upstair bath. install recess light on my high ceilinge, reposition the ceiling fan ,replace 2 shower fixtures for the other bath rebuild the fireplace. i got so many compliments on the fireplace that Jason build . wish i have the money to do the kitchen too,.Highly recommended and would definitely use again.

I was very pleased with Jason's work. I'm an Architect, and I'm very picky. This company did not dissapoint and they did great work for a fair price. I thought Jason was very professional, honest and easy to talk to. I would use this company again.

Jason did an excellent job. I was short on time getting the job done before I moved in, and Jason stayed on top of that. He answered every phone call, text and email. He let me know when he couldn't make it, and always showed up when he said he would. He brought things to my attention that needed to be changed or he thought I wouldn't like. He proposed design changes that I hadn't thought of, and all for the better. He is a real professional, and it shows in his work. I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Everything was wonderful. Jason went above and beyond to complete what I wanted done. In each area he made sure all details were handled, including matching our wood trim color and restaining where he changed out the flooring. We are excited to use him again to have more work done in our home!

Jason and his crew did a complete bathroom remodel on my main bath. It took about 1 week from start to finish and it turned out fantastic. Jason was very professional and easy to work with. He helped me pick out my tile, grout and medicine cabinet. My house was built in 1956 and it was very outdated, but with the remodel it looks very modern and I get compliments all the time. Definitely worth the money. I have future plans to redo my kitchen and a second bathroom and I will definitely use Michigan Building and Design.

Jason helped us with the new design and came up with many great ideas to maximize the space and functionality. He went with us to look at cabinets and granite advising us as to what to look for in regards to quality. Jason was also very flexible and collaborative when it came to discussing any changes as the work progressed. He and his crew arrived on time every day and were extremely courteous and professional throughout the entire project. Highly recommended and would definitely use again.

No permits were pulled. I didn't know that permits protect the home owner. Had I known this at the time I would have insisted he pull them. I did a refinance loan for this project. I found out from my refinance company the week my father past away that Jason the owner was trying to get money from them before the time the refinance was suppose to release. The work looks great until one discovers what's done behind the cabinet doors. First, he didn't get a dumpster he hauled away all trash. The master bathroom was finished first. Before the kitchen was done the bathtub was leaking and there was a cracked tile on the bathroom floor. He knew about but didn't fix because he had other jobs to address. Yes I still owed him $2500 but considering the money I've put out in the last year "everything happens for a reason". I paid $719 to a great plumber to fix bathtub leak, $150 to fix tile and plumbing under kitchen sink, to reconfigure $185.There's no moulding around kitchen cabinets so you can see shims. Vent fans go into attic not vented outside. I'm waiting to see what else breaks down or isn't done right. He's only contractor I know that starts work around 9:00am and finishes around 3:30pm. Normally a contractor will bust their butt to get a job done because time is money. Not Jason Parent.

Always arrived as agreed, very pleasant to work with. Highly recommend, wouldn't hesitate to use again.

Called Michigan Build & Design around the 11th of April 2014. Told Jason we wanted an old shed torn down, and replaced with a workshop. He indicated he would like to come out and do an inspection. However, he couldn't make it out until the 17th. Jason did call on the 17th, and asked if he could come a little early. We meet a little earlier, and discussed the project. Jason said he would have an estimate by the end of the following week (April 25th) . The 25th came and left. I ended up calling Jason on April 30th. His answering machine stated his mail box was full, and to try some other time. with no other choice, I e-mailed him asking about the estimate. Two days later (May 1st), I received an e-mail stating, sorry he was to busy to take on my project. I sent a second e-mail and asked if he could recommend someone else. I'm still waiting for a response.

We had been told it was a 3-day job: 1) Removing old tiles 2) Laying the cement board & new tiles 3) grouting. They kept to their plan. It was the owner Jason Parent and his 6' 8" assistant Brian. DAY 1: They moved 6 large items incl. large refrigerator & stove from the area. Then there were problems in removing the old tiles because the plywood was both stapled and glued to the 3/4" sub-floor. It ended up that they had to rent a sander to make sure the remnants of the plywood were removed and it was perfectly smooth to lay the cement board. DAY 2: Installed the new dishwasher. Fixed sink leak. Laid the cement board & cut & glued the tiles. We almost were at an impasse because the new tile looked too orangey whereas the old tile was light tan. The netted five-rows of inch stones that we intended to serve as a threshold between the new & old tiles looked washed out. I mentioned that the saleswoman dampened them with water & it brought the color out. She said a coating would do the same. Jason just happened to have a can of sealant in his truck and that did the trick! We didn't have to go back & pick out new tile. DAY 3: Grouted. Vacuumed & cleaned up marvelously. Replaced all the furniture etc. Examined the spigot & will replace in on Friday. Excellent job overall! We were quite pleased.

i had my husband give Jason a call to set up an appointment. Took 2 days for a response. Then he told my husband he would call him back Friday morning which as 2 days away so he could get out. Its now Friday afternoon and nothing. We needed a bathroom remodel and some drywall done. Plus we were going to have him do other jobs if the prices were right. We tried to give him a chance but I guess he didnt want it. Updated: Called 3 days later to plan for the following Tuesday. We already had people coming by the time he decided to call back.
