Kitchen remodeling in Tyrone Township, MI is the far northeast corner of our Livingston County work, about 40 minutes (26 miles) from our Kress Rd studio, with Fenton just across the line in Genesee County. About 11,993 residents (2020 Census) live in the township.
Tyrone's character comes from its lakes and its acreage. Lake Tyrone and Runyan Lake hold year-round lake homes, and much of the rest is large rural lots, so the typical kitchen here is either on the water or set well back from the road on a few acres.
Lake Tyrone, Runyan Lake and permits through Livingston County
Although Tyrone borders Fenton, it is a Livingston County township, so its remodels are permitted and inspected by Livingston County's building department rather than any Genesee County office, and Tyrone Township handles zoning. Some homes may carry a Fenton mailing address, which is one more reason we check the parcel before anything is submitted.
US-23 links the township south to Hartland and Brighton, the route Nick drives for consultations. Township Hall sits at 8420 Runyan Lake Road, where the Planning and Zoning Department handles the local paperwork.
The township requires land use permits or waivers for all new construction and additions. Its application asks for a driveway sight-distance approval from the Livingston County Road Commission and a favorable percolation test from the Livingston County Health Department before a permit for a new home is issued, and building permits then come from the county building department. A kitchen remodel inside existing walls usually skips most of that, while an addition toward the lake does not, so we sort out which path applies during design.

Lake homes and rural acreage in northeast Livingston
Lake Tyrone and Runyan Lake homes share the familiar lake-house tensions: a view wall that wants glass rather than cabinets, wet traffic from the dock, and a kitchen that has to seat a summer crowd. Many have been rebuilt or expanded from earlier cottages, which can leave framing and floor levels that do not line up.
On rural lots, private wells and septic shape fixture and appliance choices, and the distance to town makes storage matter: households keep more food on hand, so a real pantry earns its space. Freeze-thaw winters also make exterior-wall sinks a detail to check.

Forty minutes from Kress Rd, planned so every Tyrone visit counts
This far from our studio, we organize the work to limit trips without cutting corners. Nick meets you at the home for the first consultation and leaves with full measurements and photos. A design retainer starts the design phase: layout choices, a 3D view, elevations and the drawings the crew will build from, then the pricing. Renderings and selections can often be covered in one longer session with samples on the table.
When the purchase agreement is signed, we take over ordering the cabinets and materials, and Nick coordinates the partner contractors and stays connected to the job through installation.
