Our Services for Homeowners in Southgate and Beyond
Uniquely Unique handles all kinds of home renovations and building projects for homeowners across Detroit, MI, and the Downriver communities, including Southgate, Trenton, and Wyandotte. The list below covers the residential services we offer most often.
Service 01
Kitchen Remodeling
A kitchen remodel is one of the highest return construction projects you can take on, and our general contractors handle every step. We open walls, move plumbing where the design calls for it, install cabinets and countertops, run new electrical, and finish with paint, flooring, and trim. Our kitchen services in Southgate and across Downriver cover full layout changes, smaller refresh projects, and additions that turn a tight galley into the open kitchen your home has been waiting for. Expanding a cramped 1950s kitchen into a real family hub is one of our most requested projects.

Outdoor and Exterior Construction
Decks, patios, porches, garage construction, door install, and exterior building work all fall under our outdoor construction services. Our general contractors can pour concrete, frame a covered porch, or build the deck that turns a plain backyard into the spot where the family wants to spend summer evenings. Solid outdoor work pulls real curb appeal back into older Southgate, MI, and Wyandotte homes, with the kind of professional finish neighbors notice.

How Our Construction Process Works
We have refined our construction process over years of building in Southgate, MI, and across Downriver, and it keeps every project moving on a clear timeline.
1. Send a request
Tell us about your construction project through our online form or a phone call. Whether you have a fully formed vision or just rough ideas, share what you want changed and roughly when you want the work done. Honest ideas make the planning easier.
2. Take measurements
Our general contractors come out to your home in Southgate, MI, or wherever in the region. We measure the space, photograph existing conditions, ask how your family uses the room, and discuss product options. There is no fee, and it is a chance to ask about our experience on recent projects.
3. Approve the estimate
We put together a written scope of work, line item pricing, and a real construction timeline for your project. We talk through any financing options available so the final estimate matches what you actually want to do.
4. Start project
Once you sign off, our general contractors begin construction. We protect surrounding rooms, set clear start and stop times, and check in with you on progress. If a hidden issue shows up behind a wall, we pause, document, and walk you through your options before changing the agreed budget.
5. Finish on schedule
We hold a final walkthrough so you can flag any detail that needs a touch-up. Our goal is the same on every job, finish on the schedule we promised, leave the site cleaner than we found it, and hand back a home you are proud of.
