Pennings & Sons

We provide residential design, construction, and remodeling services to families throughout southwest Michigan. Our business is family-owned and family-run. Our work is quality, creative, and fits within your particular needs, tastes, and budget. And our team is talented, transparent, and respectful.

Wilbur Pennings founded our business in 1973. His philosophy towards business and customer care is still relevant today: do it right the first time. Do construction right. Do relationships right. And the result? The result will always, always, always exceed expectations. Every time.

What makes us unique among the plethora of builders out there?

These factors guide our work to ensure we design, build, and/or remodel your home to the specifications you desire:

Listening – Listening is one of the most important parts of our job. Our team listens well and asks appropriate questions to ensure we give you exactly what you asked for. And then some.
“Wow” Factor – Homes with unique elements are special and keep people interested. Our design process meets your lifestyle, budget, and personality. But it also adds a few elements that makes your home different, unique.
Building Character into Homes – Homes are special. It’s where you live, where you raise your family, where you entertain… Building character into homes means making your home special, welcoming, and warm.
Delivering Exemplary Care – Our team has more than four decades worth of experience. We’ve seen and done it all. And we plan on being around for many, many more years. That’s why we’ve done our best to plan and secure our place in an ever-changing homebuilder and remodeler market.

We guarantee a thoroughly professional experience

Our team also commits to doing the “little things” at every job site to exceed expectations and to ensure a family’s experience with Pennings & Sons even more worthwhile. Some of these “little things” include:

Clean, orderly work sites
Courtesy, professionalism, and personal touches from our work crews and trade contractors
Realistic allowances for yet-to-be made decisions
Honest expectations about the inevitable disruptions during remodeling of your home
Helpful suggestions based on our wealth of experience
Real information about decisions; we tell the truth, rather than simply what we think you want to hear
Responsive communication
A tradition of leaving no loose ends hanging after the work is done
Fast and fair follow-up on service

CONSULTATION

An important step in starting any new client relationship is to figure out if it will be a good fit. After the initial phone call, one of our estimators will come out to your home to meet with you and listen to your wants, needs, and must-haves. We will also ask questions and make sure we develop realistic expectations. Rough cost ranges are usually discussed at this meeting, and often times our clients will discover they value quality more than cost. A home remodel can be a large commitment for any homeowner. Our knowledgeable team has over 40 years of remodeling experience, and we want to make sure everything is as it should be before the project starts so we can deliver on our promises.

DESIGN & REMODEL / BUILD

Our design staff will use their extensive knowledge and experience to bring your vision to life and create a unique custom design to fit your situation. We are detailed, thorough, and will do what it takes to get it right. You will have the opportunity to see examples of what your remodel will look like before we start construction so you have a chance to share your input about all the little details that will make your home great. In most cases, you will be provided several design options to choose from so you can be confident in the success of your remodel.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

What makes Pennings & Sons unique is that we build what we design. This ensures that the high quality design work is executed exactly as intended. Our workers are considerate and professional. All of our jobs have a job supervisor who will keep things on schedule and address any concerns that may come up. We pride ourselves on good communication and clean job sites. We will stay on top of your remodel and see it to completion, making sure everything is not only done correctly but also up to code and legal.
