They never used treated wood and my mansard roof line allowed moisture in and rotted this poorly constructed windows . MLC windows wouldn't honor the 10 year warranty and wouldn't take my calls. Then the siding on my second story blew off that same year and I called the number and it was disconnected to my surprise. I had to hire that repair out.. I have had several repairs to siding everytime the winds get strong. Run from this contractor and never get MLC windows!!!

This is the worst company I have ever dealt with…read more Between the high pressured salesmen and the unfinished work I am shocked this company is still in business. The only thing that saved us is we did not pay them up front. After we refused to pay them and contacted the BBB they finally came around and finished the work after 4 months of excuses. One time they showed up and could not work because they did not have the right tools. REALLY!!! BEWARE of this company they may be Michigan made company but it is NOT WORTH IT!

I live down in Ferndale, and in July 2020, our basement got hit with the second round of…read morecatastrophic flooding in the last six years. Cool. After professional cleanup, the headache of dealing with an insurance adjuster, and the due diligence of meeting with multiple contractors to get bids on putting the basement back together, we went with Rentz Remodeling and Contracting. And wow. The difference between someone like Matt Rentz and other contractors we've dealt with has been night and day. A selfish part of me wants to keep this knowledge to myself, in case we need him again, but he's too good NOT to share. First of all, his bid was extremely fair. Since we were dealing with repairs and not an elective home remodel, we didn't have a ton of money set aside. Just what was left of insurance after a not-great cleanup crew charged us through the nose. Matt detailed out everything he would do to fix the basement, with line items for both labor and cost of materials. There was no guessing or having to ask for more detail; he came prepared with paperwork and was always extremely open about what everything cost. Secondly, he and his crew were incredibly polite and professional. In a pandemic, having new people in your house is always a little anxiety-provoking. The first thing they did when they arrived is put up a plastic zip door between the basement stairs and the rest of the house. And they never came through it into the main house. We worked out a system where he would text if he needed to ask any questions, which meant I could go anywhere in the house without worrying that I couldn't hear them if they needed anything. But for the most part, they came and went according to the needs of the work, and I didn't have to do much of anything at all. Thirdly, Matt and his crew are not just great contractors, but good guys. We had a problem with the hose discharge line for our sump pump freezing over during a cold snap, so my husband had temporarily removed it. Matt noticed and pointed out that he'd seen excess water leak through basement walls before, and texted with me about potential solutions we could try ourselves to keep it functional through the winter. Not an upsell--but just because he had knowledge he thought we could use. I'd recommend Rentz Remodeling and Contracting to anyone. (I've already given his name to a few friends.) And the next time we need anything done around the house, these guys are at the top of my list. A++, 10/10.

Mr. Eckstrom was my project manager for a modular turn-key home. My contract was signed in March…read moreof 2025, with an expected move-in date for late August/Early September of 2025. The project has been greatly delayed and is so far over budget I'm afraid I can no longer afford the cost. Travis Eckstrom failed miserably at the very basics of construction from the start of the project: no on-site dumpster, no port-a-potty and no building plans on site. This resulted in violations from the local building inspector as well as rampant trash throughout the home from subcontractors. Mr. Eckstrom does not respond to emails, text messages phone calls or the company's messaging through the BuilderTrend site. He fails to update the schedule, get multiple bids from subcontractors. I fear my costs have been unfairly inflated due to his hiring subcontractors from across the state, as I pay or the expenses incurred when driving over 2 hours to my site. Many of the systems have failed the inspection process multiple times. The HVAC system has failed 3 times and still has large holes in the ductwork and the air conditioning is still inoperable. He failed to call for a drain tile inspection; consequently, it failed and had to be re-excavated. My initial line item estimates were so severely low-balled, my cost overruns are almost to $100K over budget and the house is still not completed. My project is almost a year over the original expected move in date, with no end in sight. Mr. Eckstrom has been removed as my project manager by the company, but the damage is done. My savings are depleted, the costs are insurmountable and the project defects and structural issues has greatly devalued the property values. My new project manager has to play catch up with all the code violations, failed inspections, cost overruns and construction defects occurring from Mr. Eckstrom's negligent management. The relationship with the County building inspectors is irreparably damaged due to the repeated mistakes and failures that have left the inspectors salty towards my project. I strongly encourage anyone considering using Mr. Eckstrom for a contractor to reconsider their choices.
