We signed a contract with Applegren Construction to build our new house. It was a frustrating and stressful experience. We were overcharged for items that we did not consent to. The contractor made mistakes and passed the extra costs on to us. The contractor often did not return calls, texts or emails. The project took longer than agreed upon. Applegren refused to complete unfinished work without additional payment over and above the agreed upon contract. We were unable to resolve issues without legal action. We took the case to ND small claims court and won. (See ND Court System, Grand Forks County, Civil Case #18-2021-SC-00186) We do not recommend this contractor. They are a deceptive and dishonest contractor. As the previous review says, please think twice before hiring this contractor. read more
