When you're investing in your Cape Cod home, you need more than just a contractor — you need a partner who understands our unique coastal lifestyle. Here's what sets us apart:
Local Expertise That Matters

From navigating historic district requirements in Sandwich to understanding salt air's impact on materials, we bring invaluable local knowledge to every project. We're familiar with every town's permit office and building codes, saving you time and headaches.

This means seamless communication, consistent quality, and one point of contact throughout your project. There is no finger-pointing, no delays, just smooth execution from concept to completion.

Comprehensive Kitchen & Bath Solutions for Cape Cod Homes
When you're investing in your Cape Cod home, you need more than just a contractor — you need a partner who understands our unique coastal lifestyle. Here's what sets us apart:
From cozy galley kitchens in Wellfleet cottages to expansive chef's kitchens in Osterville estates, we create spaces that work as hard as they look good. Our designs embrace Cape Cod's indoor-outdoor lifestyle while maximizing storage and flow. We offer a full range of options, from elegant quartz countertops to durable solid-surface countertops, ensuring your kitchen is both beautiful and functional.
Your kitchen should be more than functional—it should reflect how you live, entertain, and create memories with family. Whether you're looking to transform a cramped galley layout into an open-concept space or refresh a historic Sandwich colonial, we understand the unique charm—and challenges—of Cape Cod kitchens.
These days, kitchen countertops are available in a wide variety of materials, colors, and patterns. At Thomas Michaels Design Remodel in South Shore, MA, we carry top of the line granite and quartz countertops in a variety of colors and patterns, perfect for your kitchen.
Imagine opening your kitchen cabinets to a world where every dish, every utensil, and every ingredient has its place - custom designed just for your home. At Thomas Michaels Design Remodel, we believe your cabinetry should be as distinctive as your Cape Cod home itself. With our custom made cabinetry solutions, you'll experience the unparalleled blend of durability, functionality, and exquisite design.
Transform your bath into a spa-like retreat that withstands coastal humidity. We specialize in everything from powder room updates to luxurious master bath renovations, always keeping style and durability in mind. Whether you're dreaming of a walk-in shower with frameless glass or a complete bathroom transformation, we bring your vision to life.
Say goodbye to clutter with custom solutions designed for Cape Cod living. From mudrooms that handle sandy beach gear to pantries that store lobster pots, we create storage that makes sense for your lifestyle.
Don't let your basement go unused. We can transform it into a cozy family room, guest suite, office, or entertainment area. A finished basement not only adds valuable square footage but also creates new opportunities for connection and comfort in your home.
Cape Cod summers are perfect for gathering outdoors, but it's frustrating when you have to keep running back inside to the kitchen. That's where a custom outdoor kitchen changes everything—you can grill, prep, and spend time with everyone all in one spot. We design these spaces with materials that love the coastal weather as much as you do, so you'll be enjoying cookouts and summer parties for years to come.
Sometimes it's the small projects that make the biggest impact. Our handyman services cover everyday fixes and upgrades, from repairs to minor installations. With the same professionalism we bring to large remodels, you'll have peace of mind knowing your home is cared for at every level.
