Second Century Homes, LLC

We had an awful experience working with Second Century to renovate our kitchen. When we moved in in 2018, they did remediation needed for our FHA loan, which was fine, except for pushing us to get a ventless dryer and washer unit which now means we have to run a humidifier in the laundry room at all times. Whatever. We hired them again to remodel our kitchen and build a bathroom in an old pantry, during the pandemic. I am more than understanding of how insane and awful that time was. However, I was taken advantage of because of that understanding, as well as my age and gender. This project lasted over six months, and we have had to spend thousands of dollars repairing where they cut corners, after I was spoken down to as a young woman (when I was right.) There would be multiple days where

When my mom was in the hospital, she spent over 20K rebuilding the windows in her 1890 home. She passed and never moved back into her house. I inherited the home and moved in this summer. Now that it's cold out, I must say these windows are horrible!! Cold air rushes in so badly that I can see the curtains move, and the bathrooms are unusable without space heaters. I can't even imagine what our utility bills are going to be.

Great work at a very fair price. I contracted them to cut out drywall, remove insulation, and replace the insulation and drywall. They arrived on time, did the work efficiently, and treated my house with great respect. It was easy to schedule and they are flexible enough to work on weekends and were able to schedule the job quickly to accommodate my needs. I was impressed with the quality of workmanship on the drywall, which will make it very easy to paint. I would certainly use them again for any type of job, large or small and I would recommend that anyone else use them as well.

The porch built by Second Century Homes was constructed without a proper permit and ultimately failed inspection. Major appliances and fixtures were either improperly installed or not delivered. The initial timeline for construction was three months; the project remained unfinished after a year.

If I could give negative ratings I would. We had windows and doors of a century-old house renovated and it was a terrible experience. The quality was so poor we had to hire restoration professionals subsequently to remedy what Second Century messed up. Work was extremely shoddy, it took months and months beyond what was promised, the owner was unresponsive, and costs were not insignificant. Don’t hire this company ever; you’ll save yourself a world of restoration pain.
