History

Built on the American Dream

Serenus arrived to the United States in 1912 at the age of 17, he was following in the footsteps of his sister and five brothers who preceded him to America. Soon after his arrival he joined his brothers working on the freighters that sailed the Great Lakes. When his new country became involved in World War I, Serenus took a job as a riveter in a plant that was building boats for the war effort. In 1919, he founded his construction company, providing various general contracting services in the Bay City area.

Keeping With The Times

The construction company weathered the Great Depression, growing from Bay City to the surrounding communities. The material and labor shortages of World War II were difficult on the construction business, but the end of the war started a building boom across America, including Mid-Michigan. The company benefited from this and built many schools and churches during the late 40's and 50's. When the youngest son, Raymond, joined the company, Serenus Johnson proudly added, "and Son" to its name. Family has always been important to the success of the company. Serenus had four brothers and a son-in-law that worked for him over the many years, with both the son-in-law and one brother staying with the company until their retirements.

As the 1960s began, the company continued to grow by offering different types of construction, expanding into other communities and working with new markets. Serenus retired in 1962 and Raymond continued to operate the company until he retired in 1996. Tom Johnson,
Raymond's son, joined the company in 1982 and presently heads the company since becoming president in 1996.


Tom also teamed with his brother Brian to form Serenus Johnson Portables, a worldwide leader in the portable, modular building industry. Today, it is a well-respected commercial construction company proudly serving the Great Lakes Bay Region and beyond. The company is now Serenus Johnson Construction, a name that upholds its founder's belief in honesty, hard work and quality.
