Century Construction

Aaron and Andy did a great job helping us during our time of need. We suffered a house fire and they worked closely with our insurance company to make sure we had everything necessary covered and helped us with some significant redesigns on the rebuild. Definitely recommend their service.

“We used Century Construction for an addition to our home and were extremely pleased with the quality of their work and the clear communication from ownership throughout the process. I highly recommend Century Construction!”

Century Construction replaced a deck on our rental house in Lansing. We were really in a bad situation as a prior contractor hired by our management company had started the demo and never returned. We learned that the previous contactor did not pull a permit which caused our rental to get red tagged. Aaron and Century really saved the day. Aaron submitted plans to the city which were approved and completed the project. He helped us get the red tag removed. The front deck turned out beautiful. I would highly recommend Century for any construction project.

Century Construction bailed me out from a horrible situation with my rental house. I hired another contractor to reconstruct our aging front porch. We realized after a few month this prior contractor wasn’t licensed, didn’t pull permit or submit proper plans. I called Aaron at Century Construction and the fixed everything. He worked with the city of Lansing to submit the proper plans and obtain building permit. They did a wonderful job on finishing the reconstruct, even correcting prior contractors mistakes. Price was cheaper and work completed in a timely manner.

We contracted Century Construction for a restoration of our master bathroom, we had several other companies bidding over the project but one of the owner’s Dan seemed to make the better case and was in the middle price range. He then subcontracted the job to Scott Fedewa to complete the tile and installation of our shower. The project took much longer then quoted because Dan had too many projects for Scott at one time. Even when Scott informed Dan that our bathroom was complete he had to return to replace several damaged tiles and several other issues that he claimed could not be fixed. When questioned, he said we should have informed him of the issue before he was complete because it would be too difficult to repair now. Over months the grout was cracking and falling apart throughout the tub and shower and his only fix was to over grout. This was only a temporary fix so he went on to use silicone on the areas. This too was only temporary and soon gave way. Dan repeatedly said they would correct the problem only not to. He even tried to have Scott’s insurance company pay for the repair then his own but neither company would approve it claiming it was due to poor workmanship. Dan asked for us to get quotes from other companies and even sent out his own estimator but didn’t like what their solution was. The last contact from Dan was he would have another contractor repair it but after scheduling an appointment no one showed up. Dan has not returned any of my last messages, texts or emails. I wouldn’t recommend Century Construction or Scott Fedewa to do any repairs or restoration. They could care less that I am a Disabled Combat Marine Veteran. Please be very careful when dealing with either of these companies.

Do not use this company. They did everything to try and get my insurance money, do as little as possible, and without follow the proper procedures. 

For instance, I specified that they take pictures of everything before starting any work, and they promised to do it. However, no pictures were taken. They did a very poor job itemizing everything, and multiple employees advised me to make sure to get that done, because they had gone to court for other jobs because of it.

Initially, they told me they would take the items from the basement and put into storage cubes, that were supposed to remain on the property, as a free service. However, one of the workers told me that they gave the cubes to someone else, and that the new plan was to put my items into storage at their warehouse. As they were removing everything, the assured me that they were inventorying everything, but that was not the case. The items were mixed in with four other families and we are still missing some very valuable of our stuff to this day. 

I continuously asked for lists of everything and was provided with nothing. After I explained that I no longer wanted to use their services, they tried to work around me with my insurance company. In fact, they still charged me for carpeting that they never installed along with equipment that was never removed.
