"We hired Mike Hendrickson, aka Kiewit Construction aka DMB Construction Companies, to be our contractor and build an addition to our house. He was very knowledgeable and understood our expectations. After every visit which happened about every 2 weeks, starting late spring of '21, we would review the plans. We signed for the loan end of September. We signed our "contract" middle of October and were told we would break ground in 2 weeks. The weeks came and gone and there continued to be excuse after excuse. I felt as though we were being scammed until lumber showed up end of November in our yard. Then it was another 2 weeks before we heard from Mike. He again said another 2 weeks. Finally it was January and there was no way we were going to break ground but he told my husband we were getting a excavator in 2 weeks due to the company renting them out stopping because of damage being done to them. I reached out to the company and found this to be untrue. I began pulling all the draws from our loan and calling all the businesses he was supposed to pay for materials and the only 2 things that were paid for was our down payment for roofing and siding and the lumber that was sitting in our yard, which we found out in February was not the right size. I called the city to see if a permit was pulled because in December we were told from Mike that he had the permit and everything was good to go. The city said there was no permit and the last permit requested was in November but it was denied. The city then informed me that Mike didn't even have a valid contractor's license. Skip forward to February and we met with Mike and laid out all of our concerns. He brought a new estimate that was 50,000 dollars over our loan and we told him that we cant pay for that and he said our project was getting too expensive and he was having to take money from other projects to fund ours. I looked him in the eyes and asked "is that what your doing to us?" He replied he couldnt because ours was costing too much. After the meeting i knew in my gut we needed to hault moving forward until we had proof he was using the money for our project. I asked for itemized receipts, for the 3rd time, and images of the materials he ordered and gave him 3 days to provide us with this documentation. He said we were giving him ridiculous time lines for this stuff, granted we are 4 and a half months into the project and not even a permit to show, but we were ridiculous? I told him until we get the stuff, we are not moving forward. His response was "I didn't even want to move forward with your project anyways" and "you'll be hearing from my attorney next week because you broke the contract not me". Do not trust this guy with anything. He has yet to get the material from our yard and pay the advances on our construction loan that he took. If you look at Kiewit Construction reviews, you will see we unfortunately aren't the only ones he has affected."
