Get matched with top basement remodelers in Fenton, MI

"I hired Lakeside to install a water heater in Ann Arbor in 2024. Their quote was about $400 higher than a competitor, but I chose them because I was told they could complete the job six days earlier. The water heater model was selected by a Lakeside technician during a paid visit to the property. However, on installation day, I was informed that the selected tank would not fit and a more expensive model had to be ordered. More importantly, after the installation, the required permits did not pass final inspection in time. During a City of Ann Arbor rental inspection, I was informed that the final inspection had not been completed, and I was unable to obtain the required certificate. As a result, I had to pay a $500 fine. In 2026, the unit required repair. I was informed that the issue appeared related to improper installation (including dissimilar metals in contact, leading to corrosion). Lakeside did not stand behind their work, and I had to pay for the repair."

"Steve and his team did a fantastic job and really stood by their work. They had to coordinate with the property manager (work performed on our Michigan rental property, we live in Georgia) and tenant for access to the property. The team was on site for a couple of days. They did an amazing job installing the drain pipe in the basement to pull the water into the sump pump and the auto on/off dehumidifier they installed in the crawlspace they connected it to the drain pipe so it would not require any maintenance by the tenants. The dehumidifier goes on/off by itself and drains just fine. The basement is now "bone dry" according to the tenant. We researched several different companies, and decided to go with Steve after we talked with him, reading reviews, talking with references and we watched his company videos on the waterproofing process. We really felt like he was honest and was not trying to bankrupt us to complete this job. It still costs us $5,000, but we felt like he would stand by his work and he has. We called him to go back out to the house after the job was completed to check on the dehumidifier (it was our fault), we had the electrical outlet installed in the crawlspace AFTER he completed the job, and couldn't figure out how to turn ON the unit. He went back out to check on it to make sure it was working and we are thrilled with the results. Would use him again and refer him without hesitation!!"

"The owner is nice however had a few issues with the quality. Crew came back and made it right. However still a year later and do not have warranty information. Owner now will not contact me back."

"Scott did an outstanding job with repairs on the exterior part of the house. He was competent, professional and timely as well. We appreciate his work. I would use Husband For A Day again, without a doubt! Thank you!"

"I used this company for a new roof and gutters. I was not happy with the service and I would not recommend this company."

"I needed a bathroom remodel for a small bathroom. I believe Doug took on more than he could handle. He said 4 days which took 6 days. He even told me on the last day he rushed to get out of here because he was tired. Well here's what happened. He uses a lot of caulk to cover up mistakes. The caulk around the standup shower on one side is already cracking. He only put 1 coat of paint on. So you see all the brush strokes and the spots where paint comes through. I mentioned something. And no response!!! He didn't even paint the shelf's in the closet. Here's the really bad part. The TILE FLOOR!!! Omg... It is so uneven. A couple corners are sticking up. Tiles are wavy due to not being even. First week grout was cracking and was coming out in pieces. Doug is very good about responding. I text him about the problem and he came to fix it. He took a grinder to the grout and refilled it. That made it worse. Grout line's are much larger then others. Corners he tried putting grout higher to fill in. Grout is on titles in areas that I cant get off. Grout is 2 different colors in spots. Being floor so wavy he put caulk between tile and floor board to hide it on those pieces. It's a total disaster!! So I text him about it. Didn't hear from him. 3 days later text him again nothing. End of week I text him that he's left me no choice but to go to CIVIL COURT!! Boy 2 minutes later he called. I thought I was being nice by offering to buy the tile again and give him $200. Or he can pay 1/2 for someone else to do it. He said he'd get back to me. Haven't heard a word!! I'm a very easy person to get along with. Him and I got along. So I don't understand why he has an attitude. Other than he can't do it??? So CIVIL COURT I go. First time I've used Angies list. And this is a top rated Comp. I don't know????"

"We hired Creative decks to build a deck with a staircase on our new house. They gave us a very competitive price and it took some time to get onto their schedule, but once Steve and his team came out the build went very quickly and the deck is of very high quality. The deck was 18x16. The quality of our neighbors decks does not compare. I would not hesitate to hire Steve and his team again for any carpentry project."

"I own a commercial painting contracting company. I've been doing this for 25 years. Never, in all my time, have I met someone who was so dishonest. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter Joe Harrison, RUN, do not walk away. I can be reached at painterjob.apps@gmail.com. Feel free to contact me and I will tell you all about my experience. I had to turn this over to my attorney, Bodman PC, in order to salvage what I could of the warranty and promised materials. What I can say is, Alpine Complete did the job, that's it. I would hope that no person ever has to be so vigilant when dealing with a company, once a "contract" has been signed. I will be happy to share correspondence from my lawyer and Harrison. The sordid tale is too extensive to sum up in a review. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!"

"It has been a pleasure doing business with The Renewal Group. Scott Barnes gave us an all-inclusive quote for the work we wanted done. Scott, Josh and the team showed up every day, bright and early, and ready to work. They worked hard, methodically and consistently through the whole process. The team worked as a cohesive group. They were professional, conscientious, meticulous, courteous and very capable with an eye for detail. We were not nickeled and dimed throughout the project, all increases in cost were driven by our design changes and clearly discussed up front. They answered any questions we had graciously with full explanations. They treated our home as if it were their own. Things went very well and we were impressed with the quality of the work. So impressed in fact, we hired them to complete another project before they finished the first one. Based on our experience and the integrity they demonstrated I would recommend The Renewal Group without hesitation."

"Absolute responded quickly to my inquiry and sent someone the same day to inspect / diagnose the problem. This was during the week of Christmas, and they sent a crew the following day to perform the work. Everything was done quickly and I was happy to be able to get the problem corrected so my well pump was not being taxed."
