Fenton-area homeowners needing mold remediation bundled with water damage repair and reconstruction under one contractor, with 24/7 emergency response across the St. Louis metro.
Best for
- St. Louis metro homeowners who want mold remediation and the resulting drywall or carpet rebuild handled by the same company.

About this company
Century Restoration and Construction is a Fenton, Missouri, restoration company founded in 2014 that handles water damage, mold remediation, fire damage, storm damage, roofing, and in-house construction. Their primary identity is disaster restoration with reconstruction capability, not a standalone mold company. They claim over 100 years of combined staff experience and work with insurance companies as a preferred partner.
What stands out is the in-house construction crew. Most mold remediation outfits subcontract the rebuild, but Century keeps demolition, remediation, and reconstruction under one roof. Their mold page describes containment, air filtration, antimicrobial treatments, and removal of infected porous materials like drywall and carpet. They also offer mold testing and inspection as part of their remediation workflow.

Review consensus
Fast emergency response is the dominant theme. Multiple reviewers describe same-day or same-evening arrivals for basement flooding. Patrick is named for strong communication throughout a flood restoration project. Colleen West, referred by her insurance company, noted they kept her in the loop throughout. Fran Petruso praised custom interior and exterior rebuild work after fire damage. Several reviewers mention the basement looking identical to its pre-flood condition.
2 found across 18 total reviews at 4.3★. Jodi Brown hired Century after a tornado in Arnold and waited seven months with the project still incomplete. She describes flat paint applied without asking about finish preference, fascia installed incorrectly twice, paint splatter left on surfaces, incomplete drywall around basement windows, nail pops in the ceiling, and gaps where drywall met carpet at stairs. She says communication required constant follow-up with no schedule ever provided. Renee T called for restoration services, had two workers visit who called it an easy project, and then never heard back despite follow-up calls.
The two complaints point in different directions but share a common thread: follow-through. Jodi's project dragged for months with poor quality control on finishes; Renee was ghosted entirely after an in-person estimate. The owner responded to both reviews with apologies and phone numbers but did not dispute the specific facts in either case. With only 18 total reviews, two recent 1-star complaints represent a meaningful fraction of the sample.
Patrick (project communication during flood restoration — positive, named by Austin Ates).
Century works well for emergency water damage where speed matters most. Their in-house construction team is a real advantage for large restoration jobs. But the recent complaints about ghosting and drawn-out timelines suggest you should get a written schedule with milestones before work begins. Ask for Patrick if your project involves ongoing coordination. For mold-only jobs, their track record is thin compared to their water and fire restoration work.
Keep in mind
- Century does both mold testing and mold remediation. That means the same company deciding you have a mold problem is the one billing you to fix it. Consider getting an independent mold test before committing to their remediation scope.
- Their Google rating is 4.3 stars on only 18 reviews. The two recent 1-star reviews describe being ghosted after an estimate visit and a seven-month storm damage project plagued by quality issues and poor communication.
- Their service area spans 10 counties across Missouri and Illinois. For locations far from their Fenton headquarters, confirm realistic response times before booking.
- Most of their positive reviews are for water damage and fire restoration work. Mold-specific reviews are scarce, so you have limited track record to evaluate for that service alone.
