Our Past Work
At Canvasback Builders, every project tells a story of craftsmanship, durability, and respect for the rugged Upper Peninsula. From custom homes and home renovations to outdoor decks, porches, and commissioned furniture, our work reflects quality, precision, and attention to detail. We take pride in creating spaces that not only look great but stand up to the U.P.’s harsh winters and variable weather, built to last for generations.
​
Whether it’s a remodeled kitchen, a multi-level deck, a lakeside retreat, or a handcrafted piece of furniture, our past projects showcase the range and expertise of our team. Each one is a testament to our commitment to excellence, client satisfaction, and the lasting strength of northern craftsmanship.

Nevermind Kitchen Remodel
At the Nevermind project, we overhauled the kitchen and master bath. We replaced the flooring with large format tile and tongue and groove pine. We installed new cabinets, appliances, fixtures and countertops. This home was lost in the 1980's until we brought up to modern standards!
