Remodeling in Washington Township?
Washington Township is Done Right Homes' home township — the business is registered here, at Macomb County's rural-suburban northern edge along the Van Dyke (M-53) corridor between Shelby Township and Romeo. The housing is mostly newer subdivisions over large, dry basements, mixed with older farmhouses and bigger homes on acreage toward the countryside. That range shapes the remodel: the subdivision houses are prime for finishing the basement into real living space and for kitchen and bath updates sized to their larger floor plans, while some properties out on the bigger lots run on a well and septic — worth knowing before any plumbing-heavy job. Because Mike renovates for resale, he matches the scope to the house and the lot instead of one-size-fits-all, and he runs the job himself from the first walk-through to the last — insured, with a real written number up front and a 1-year workmanship guarantee behind it.
The houses here
What homes in Washington Township are like.
- Median year built
- 1995
- Macomb County: 1975
- Owner-occupied homes
- 81%
- Macomb County: 75%
- Occupied homes
- 11,139
Half of Washington Township's homes were built in 1995 or later — twenty years newer than the Macomb County median — and about four in five are owner-occupied. Its two ZIP codes differ by a generation: 48094 has a 1998 median, 48095 a 1979 one. So most remodels here are about finishing what the builder left unfinished, usually the basement, and bringing 25-to-30-year-old builder-grade kitchens and baths up to the house; the older homes out on the larger lots are a different job, priced as one.
