What to Expect When Preparing for a Kitchen Remodel in 2025
Why Investing in a Remodel with Pointe Cabinets & Design Is Worth It
At Pointe Cabinets & Design, we don’t just update kitchens—we transform them. Your kitchen should support the way you live. Whether you're keen to host friends for dinner, manage remote work at the kitchen island, or simply craving a better layout and flow, we approach every project with the goal of pairing beauty with functionality.
Unlike firms that offer cosmetic upgrades or partial renovations, our strength lies in full-scale remodels, the kind that reimagine your space from the ground up. With design, cabinetry, and project management all in-house, Pointe provides a highly personalized, luxury experience backed by deep expertise and seamless execution.
And while remodel costs have continued to climb in recent years, your investment—when done right—pays off a better quality of life, long-term satisfaction, and real resale value. According to the 2024 Cost vs. Value Report for Detroit, kitchen remodels continue to be among the most valuable home improvements.
Mid-Range Kitchen Remodel: $100,000 – $160,000
Detroit ROI: 43.5%
This level of renovation is ideal for clients looking to completely rework their space without going fully custom. Non-structural walls may come down, the layout may shift, and all surfaces are upgraded—but your project stays within a clearly defined budget.
With Pointe, a mid-range full remodel includes:
- Custom layout design with 3D renderings using Chief Architect and 2020
- Semi-custom cabinetry from curated, designer-only lines
- Quartz or natural stone countertops
- New tile, plumbing, lighting, and flooring
- Appliance guidance and sourcing
- Full-service finish selection with our design team
- Dedicated project manager to oversee every phase
While ROI is one factor, homeowners at this level typically value improved day-to-day function and flow above all.
High-End Custom Kitchen Remodel: $175,000+
Detroit ROI: 36.1%
This is where we shine. For clients who want a one-of-a-kind kitchen built around their lifestyle, aesthetic, and long-term vision, a custom remodel is a true transformation. Every element is selected with intention — from layout to lighting to integrated smart systems.
At the custom level, our services expand to include:
- Fully custom cabinetry built by our in-house millwork team
- Major structural changes (wall removal, mechanical relocation, etc.)
- Statement slabs, islands, or full-height backsplashes
- High-end or imported finishes curated specifically for your project
- Architectural details like moldings, beams, archways, and built-ins
- Custom lighting design
- Smart home-ready appliances and technology integration
These projects are less about return on investment and more about building your forever kitchen—something timeless, personal, and perfectly crafted.
