Our shop is at 1570 Edgewood Lane in Milford, about 10.5 miles northwest of Walled Lake. Take Wixom Road southeast and we’re at your door in roughly 20 minutes, which keeps the whole city well inside the area we serve.
That closeness matters on a kitchen project. We can come measure and quote quickly, the crew shows up when we said it would, and getting back out to adjust a door or touch up a drawer front later is easy. A refinishing job is something you live with every day, so having the people who did it close by is worth a lot, and there’s no out-of-area trip fee built into your quote or long wait for a crew to make the drive.
Walled Lake got its name in 1825, when settler Walter Hewitt spotted what looked like a low stone wall along the lake’s edge, really a ridge of boulders left underwater by retreating glaciers. The name stuck, and the lake became the center of everything here.
For decades this was one of the busiest summer destinations in the region. The Walled Lake Casino, a dance pavilion with a roughly 17,000-square-foot floor, and the Walled Lake Amusement Park, with its Flying Dragon roller coaster that opened in 1929, drew big crowds from Detroit until the casino burned in 1965 and the park closed in 1968. The city incorporated in 1954 and today wraps around its namesake lake with about 7,200 residents, served by Walled Lake Consolidated Schools.
A city built around a lake comes with a distinctive housing story, and it shapes the kitchens. Many homes here started as summer cottages and were later expanded and winterized into year-round houses. Those kitchens often carry cabinetry of different ages and styles, and refinishing is what pulls all of it together into one consistent, updated look.
The older lake homes frequently have solid-wood cabinetry that’s worth keeping rather than replacing. Refinishing preserves that quality while bringing the color and finish up to date, and on a smaller lakefront kitchen it makes a dramatic difference for far less than a remodel.
Then there are the newer homes and the postwar build-out around the lake, many with builder-grade oak and maple cabinets that have simply aged into a dated look. Painting them in a current color modernizes the whole room without the cost or upheaval of tearing it out. Whatever era your kitchen is from, a sprayed and properly cured finish lays down smooth and even, without the brush marks of a rushed repaint, and it holds up to constant daily use. The whole project also moves faster than a remodel, with no demolition and no weeks of living without a kitchen.
Walled Lake is a close, lake-centered community where people know each other and word about good work gets around fast. We’re out here often, and we’d rather earn the next kitchen by referral than chase it. When your neighbors will be standing in the kitchen we finished, doing it right the first time is simply how we operate.
Updating your cabinets should be exciting — not something you dread. But we know that’s not always how it plays out.
