SERVING METRO DETROIT FOR OVER TWO DECADES
About Renovation By Design

At Renovation By Design, the foundation of our success lies in the partnership between Owner/Partners Tom Inger and Jon Ropes.
With over five decades of combined experience in high-end home design, construction, and remodeling, Tom and Jon joined forces to build something more than just a renovation company—they created Oakland County’s trusted leader in design+build remodeling.
Their complementary skill sets and shared commitment to excellence are what drive the RBD process. “Our skill sets complement each other”, says Tom. “We share the same vision without cramping each other’s styles.” Jon concurs. “That’s what makes our company stand out. We genuinely enjoy working with each other and hire people who share our passion.”
From the initial concept to the final reveal, RBD is focused on delivering a streamlined, collaborative experience tailored to each client’s vision.

Simplifying Clients Lives

We know that clients who come to us are busy people. They look to us to reduce everyday stress, not add to it. With RBD, that’s exactly what they find. That’s because we believe in a single-point-of-contact throughout the project. We handle all the details – and all the running around – so you don’t have to.
Showplaces Clients Love

Our most rewarding moments come from bringing our clients’ dreams to life – that’s what we’re all about! “The biggest compliment is when a client tells us they love their new space so much, they don’t feel like going out,” says Jon. “That’s undoubtedly what makes all the time and hard work worthwhile,” says Tom.
