Kitchen NV offers kitchen remodeling in Augusta Township, MI, one of the farthest corners of Washtenaw we serve, about 50 minutes (32 miles) from Pinckney. The township holds about 7,082 residents (2020 Census) in the county's southeast, including the community of Willis, with rural lots and homes mostly built from the 1970s through the 1990s.
Augusta's kitchens are defined by the house types of those decades: split-levels, bi-levels and ranches on an acre or more, with kitchens that are closed off, dark and short on counter space.
Split-levels, bi-levels and big yards around Willis
A 1970s split-level puts the kitchen on the middle floor, boxed in between the living room, a half-flight of stairs and the dining area. Opening it up usually means dealing with a bearing wall and a stair railing in the same plan. Bi-levels add a low entry and a kitchen squeezed against the upper landing. The 1980s and 1990s ranches and two-stories in the township are roomier, but most still have original oak cabinets and laminate tops.
Rural lots bring private wells and septic, which shape filter space, fixture finishes and any plan to add a second sink or bathroom. Larger yards also mean a garage or back entry that sees heavy use, so a mudroom or drop zone often joins the kitchen plan.

Fifty minutes out: fewer, fuller visits to Augusta Township
Because Augusta is a long drive from our studio, Nick plans each trip to accomplish more. The first visit combines the in-home consultation with a complete measure. After the design retainer, he presents layout choices, 3D renderings, elevations and pricing in one sitting where possible, and the selections meeting brings every sample category at once, billed hourly or packaged.
A purchase agreement lets Kitchen NV order the cabinetry and arrange delivery to a rural address. Partner contractors build the room, and Nick returns at the stages that matter most. Owners who plan to install themselves can hire design and ordering only.
“Nick’s attention to detail combined with his enthusiasm about your project will set him apart from other designers and big box stores. As a first time homeowner dealing with a full kitchen renovation, I was overwhelmed. Nick took the stress out of the process and worked with me to put together a kitchen layout that turned out both gorgeous & affordable. A full kitchen renovation does not need to break the bank, and that is where Nick comes in. He will recommend cabinet constructions, features, and finishes that meet your needs and budget. I installed my kitchen cabinets myself, and Nick was right there every step of the way answering all questions I had. To anyone looking at renovating a kitchen, I highly suggest you set up an appointment with Nick, he’s awesome. I think you’ll be surprised how stress free the process is, and how obtainable your dream kitchen really is.”

Whittaker Road, Willis and the permit office for rural Augusta
Augusta sits at the county's southeast corner, bordering Wayne and Monroe counties, with Willis inside its borders and Whittaker Road heading north toward Ypsilanti Township. York Township and Milan lie to the west and southwest.
The township's place names map its history. Augusta was organized in 1836; Paint Creek grew on the old Monroe-to-Ypsilanti road; Whittaker took its name from Frank Whittaker's store and gained the township hall in 1867; and activity drifted to Willis after the railroad came through in 1881. Most of Augusta's housing, though, went up a century later, on rural lots strung between those old crossroads.
Augusta does not run its own building department: the township says permitting and inspections are handled by the Washtenaw County Building Department, though some projects need an approval from the township zoning office first. Confirm with the township hall on Talladay Road before work is scheduled. The partner contractor files the permit with our drawings, and adding plumbing fixtures may also involve a septic review.
