Luxury Custom Home Builder in Southeast Michigan & Southwest Florida

“Todd, I have been searching for the words to express how much I love my house and how much it has enhanced my life. The layout downstairs is so much more functional and has made the house bigger and better looking. The kitchen works very well and I am glad to have the seating around the island, which works for me. The reworked bedrooms upstairs are great and the hall bathroom is now a great bathroom. The addition of the bathroom, closet and laundry is so wonderful and I am enjoying it so much. I feel so glad to have the mechanics, framing, exterior, plumbing, cabinets, electrical and HVAC all so solid, up-to-date and well done. Trim work and tile work is exceptional. Glad to have great Marvin windows. So proud we took an aging, worn-out house with potential and made it into a beautiful, functional and still-charming home. Thanks for your vision on this, encouraging me and making it happen. It has been a joy to do and now a joy to live in.”

“The whole team at Sterling was a pleasure to work with, friendly and very responsive.  Our family lived in the house throughout the renovation and everyone that worked in our house was respectful and did their best to make sure we were all comfortable throughout the process.   Our Project Manager was there for us what felt like 24/7 and management went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on schedule and within budget.   We will definitely be using them again.”

“Todd Emerson and his Sterling construction company has remodeled our entire home in three phases. They were on time and more importantly on budget. There were no hidden surprises. They were helpful transforming conception into fully engineered design. Craftsmanship was superior. Our house looks beautiful and feels as solid as a tank. As we contemplate a final addition, I will not hesitate to hire Sterling again.”

“This is quite simply the best home improvement company EVER. I found Todd, Joe and their team when they did a ground up remodel of our neighbor’s house. When I saw what a great job they did I hired them to rebuild the entire back wall of our house following a seriously damaging water leak. This spring we had them replace the front and rear entry doors to our home. Their project manager, Joe Dimeck, is truly amazing. Super competent, responsive, easy going, fun to work with – a true professional. I can recommend this company without any hesitation.”

“Todd Emerson drew up a plan for the extensive renovation of a condo which we purchased in 2015. His ideas were innovative and also practical. Interior structural changes we had not thought of making but were part of Todd’s design proved to be a wonderful re-working of the interior footprint of our condo. Work proceeded in a quick and efficient fashion. Any questions or concerns we had elicited a timely response from the company. We are very happy with the final product; the quality of the workmanship is excellent. Everyone at the company, especially Todd Emerson and Marc Alexander, was a pleasure to deal with.”

“We first used Sterling Development in 2015 to remodel a bathroom, laundry room as well as put on a new roof. We were very pleased with the work and decided to hire Sterling again in 2017 for a complete walk-out basement remodel. Sterling was outstanding to work with. Workers were very professional, honest and timely. We were done ahead of schedule by two weeks and slightly under budget. We are thrilled with our new basement which has quickly turned into our main living space as it has a spacious family room, bar/kitchen, bathroom as well as a separate large movie room/kids game room. We are beyond thrilled with our basement and highly recommend Sterling Development!”

“First, we want to take the opportunity to Thank Todd Emerson and his team for building the house of our dreams. We truly couldn’t be more satisfied! I can’t say enough good things about Sterling Development. It has truly been a pleasure working with you and your team. If you’re considering building a new home or remodeling, Sterling Development is definitely the way to go. I have never felt so comfortable and happy with Todd and his team. He always reassured me that he would correct any issues or concerns I had and made it such a great experience.”

“It has been my great pleasure to work with Sterling Development on what turned out to be a major renovation on my one hundred year old home. The work they did for me was performed by skilled craftsmen and women in all the trades. The pricing was fair and although the schedule changed from time to time because of changes that evolved throughout the process, I was always kept informed. Beyond all that, Marc and Todd are true gentlemen who treated me with courtesy and respect – a very rare thing these days. I highly recommend Sterling Development.”

“I recently had a first floor remodel that was completed by Sterling. The results are absolutely stunning. The remodel included moving the laundry upstairs, a brand new kitchen with a much improved layout, an open floor plan, new wood floors and a mudroom. I have received numerous compliments from friends and family and couldn’t be happier with it. Everyone that I worked with at Sterling was professional, friendly and highly skilled. The project was completed on time and within our budget. I cannot recommend them enough.”

“My husband and I have had wonderful experiences with Sterling. We had a sudden need to do a major renovation to our lower level to accommodate my husband’s father moving in with us. Within 6 weeks we built out the lower level to add a beautiful bedroom, bathroom and closet. The work was beautiful and completed on time. The company stuck to our budget and their work crews maintained a clean premises and were very professional. We are now undergoing a second renovation of our master bathroom as well. We highly recommend the company.”
