Kitchen NV works from a studio on Kress Road in Hamburg Township, near the village of Pinckney. Our core service area is Livingston and Washtenaw counties, where most projects sit within about a half-hour drive. We also take projects in western Oakland County and western Wayne County, and along the edges of Jackson, Genesee, Ingham, Lenawee, Monroe and Shiawassee counties.
How drive time from Pinckney shapes a project schedule
Distance changes how a project is planned more than whether we take it. Hamburg Township is about five minutes from the studio, Brighton and Genoa around fifteen, and Ann Arbor roughly twenty-five. For homes farther out, site visits are scheduled around the moments that matter most — field measuring, the pre-demolition walkthrough, cabinet delivery, countertop templating and the final walkthrough — so each trip covers more ground.
Design work travels well regardless of distance: drawings, renderings and selections can be reviewed at the kitchen table or on a call. Start with our Livingston County and Washtenaw County pages, or with nearby towns such as Brighton, Dexter and Pinckney.
Permit offices differ from one township to the next
Southeast Michigan has no single permit desk. Inside the Village of Pinckney, a village land use permit comes before the county building permit. Many Livingston County townships handle their own zoning but rely on the Livingston County Building Department in Howell for building and trade permits, while some cities and townships in Washtenaw, Oakland and Wayne counties run their own building departments. Each area page notes what we know about local permitting, and we confirm the issuing office for every address before work is scheduled.
