Kitchen remodeling in Springfield Township usually involves a rural property: estate homes on acreage, lake houses on the township’s smaller lakes and older homes around the crossroads village of Davisburg. Springfield Oaks County Park, home of the Oakland County Fair, sits in the middle of it all. Davisburg is still the mailing address for most of the township, so the name on the envelope rarely tells you which road the house is on.
Springfield lies near the northern edge of where we work, around 50 minutes (34 miles) from Pinckney. That is why each Springfield appointment is booked in advance and planned to complete a whole stage of the design in one visit.
Fewer, fuller visits from Pinckney to Springfield Township
The first meeting is at your house, and it is mostly listening: how you cook, how often you host, where gear and groceries come in. Nick measures and photographs the kitchen and any rooms connected to it.
During the retainer-based design phase, he builds the layout, plans, elevations, renderings and installation drawings in Pinckney, then brings everything north for one presentation with pricing. Selections are made with samples on your counters. Kitchen NV places and manages the cabinet order, and the build goes to partner contractors, with Nick visiting at the important stages.
Davisburg, Springfield Oaks and permits in the township
Springfield Township is largely rural; the typical house draws from its own well and drains to septic, which bears on sink-base filtration space and fixture finishes. Permitting is a township-level matter, not a county one; check with Springfield Township about which office reviews your project and its current requirements. The licensed contractor usually files.
The Building Department is at the township Civic Center, 12000 Davisburg Road, open weekdays. Either a licensed contractor or the homeowner may apply, and the township contracts with outside inspectors for plumbing, mechanical and electrical work. Well, septic, driveway and soil erosion permits come from Oakland County agencies, not the township, and the department also asks whether a property sits in a floodplain, which matters for low lots near the lakes and wetlands.
The township dates to 1836 and takes its name from its many springs. Davisburg grew from land Cornelius Davis bought in the 1830s and later had a stop on the Detroit and Milwaukee line, and the original Springfield Oaks parcel was donated to the county in 1926 by Manley Davis. Indian Springs Metropark is among the township’s other large parks.
Nick’s Michigan residential builder license, #2101209269, and his kitchen and bath design certification allow him to answer both the structural and the design questions in a single set of drawings.

Acreage estates and lake homes around Davisburg
Estate homes on Springfield’s larger parcels, many built in the 1980s through the 2000s, tend to have big kitchens with layouts that spread the cook out, plus underused formal rooms. Older homes nearer Davisburg are smaller and more closed. Lake homes on the township’s lakes add the familiar trade-off between windows and storage.
What they share is a rural routine: bulk shopping, mud and snow at the back door, and often a second freezer or pantry. Good design gives those a place, typically a mudroom drop zone, a walk-in or scullery pantry and a kitchen with tighter work zones.
