Waterfront Living

Considering a waterfront build? DeShano Companies has extensive experience in building water facing homes. We will help you design the perfect house to take advantage of your lot's unique views and elevation. Since most waterfront homes have two fronts, it is important to design the house to have appeal from both sides. Our drafting and design team will take each of these factors into consideration to help design your perfect home, cottage, or cabin.

More about Commercial Construction

"DeShano Construction has been the most professional team that I have worked with. I have tried other contractors, but no one else measures up to these guys. They handled the remodel of my house while I was a thousand miles away in Georgia and didn't miss a beat. They did such a good job I trusted them with the work on my parents home and our deer camp as well. They assign a professional supervisor for each job. It's nice to have one contact that handles all aspects of the work. And due to their size and leverage, they are usually cheaper than most of the local contractors in town. I highly recommend them and will use them again myself."

"We love our new log house up north, and the complete experience of building this home with DeShano Companies was terrific. Jeff was extremely knowledgeable in helping with all the details of the plan, and Scott as foreman was great to work with. The quality for the price was outstanding and I would recommend this builder to anyone considering building a home in central and northern lower Michigan."

"We are very please to have had DeShano's construct the addition to my home. The overall experience was great. With the flooding of my Mom's home in May we needed assistance building her a living space at my home. Chad DeShano came to my home and discussed our plans with us personally. We appreciated that. DeShano's helped us get to a point where Mom now has a space of her own again. As a family we really appreciated that extra effort on DeShano's part. Thank You. "
