Built on relationships that Span decades

Frank Bening, founder of Century Construction of North Idaho, has spent more than three decades building a reputation for integrity, craftsmanship, and dependable service. A second‑generation contractor, Frank proudly follows in the footsteps of his father, who taught him early on that quality work, strong values, and honest communication are the foundation of any successful project. Those lessons shaped Frank’s approach long before he launched Century Construction in 1989, and they continue to guide the company today.

With extensive experience in residential building, remodeling, and boutique commercial construction, Frank's hands‑on leadership style ensures that each project receives the attention, precision, and care it deserves. Whether managing a custom home build, overseeing a major renovation, or coordinating a team of skilled subcontractors, Frank is known for delivering results that stand the test of time.

Clients value Frank’s straightforward communication and his ability to turn complex challenges into practical, cost‑effective solutions. He believes that strong relationships are essential to great construction, and he works closely with homeowners, architects, and trade partners to ensure every detail aligns with the client’s vision. His commitment to excellence has earned Century Construction long‑standing client partnerships and a trusted presence throughout North Idaho — with over 90% of new clients coming through referrals.

A look at the craftsmanship

Our family recently completed our second home-building experience with Frank Bening of Century Construction. Deciding to return for our forever home was easy. As with our first experience, we received the same care, integrity, and knowledge we'd come to expect. Frank was attentive and an excellent communicator, and he handled challenges with ease — even during a difficult time for construction. We are forever grateful to Frank and couldn't be happier with our beautiful home.
