If we had it to do all over again, we would choose Wausau Homes Kenosha.
All steps were explained at the beginning. We were kept up to date the entire process. Dustin handled all the details and organized the contractors.
Crew Professionalism - Very hard workers and polite
Contact - The house could be up in about a week. Plus the construction was impressive watching the u tube videos.
Very professional. Great communication. Cost came in higher than expected mostly due to JB and his administration.
Our house still isn't complete, no communications from Wendy as to when anything will happen.
Damaged cabinets for second time.
They were supposed to provide quote to build our deck this spring, no word from them.
I had to go find another builder.
Anytime prior or during the build I had to inquire and suggest things to Wendy and then something would happen.
I even had to call Paul to help get things moving on many occasions.
I never received a copy of what the costs were to monitor, this is a major flaw.
Our pricing kept going up from the onset due to the non urgency.
Absolutely! We have already recommended them to two separate sets of friends.
Matt and Nick are very easy to work with and we would recommend them to others looking to build. This was our first building experience and they provided just the right amount of support to us.
Builder Satisfaction - Nick and Matt are some of the nicest people we know. They are accommodating, responsive and patient. They came with good suggestions, advice and recommendations for us to consider throughout the process and that was very helpful to us.
We really enjoyed the planning process and the set day.
I have already recommended Wausau. The planning and design of our house is everything we wanted.
Mike Brighumm worked diligently to meet our budget and design for our retirement home in Boulder Jct. WI. We couldn't be happier.
Final Design - Mike Brighumm listen to my design elements I wanted to incorporate. He offered his own ideas/suggestions together with Marisa to the table which we incorporated. Our home exceeds our expectations. Superior craftsmanship together with good communication between the trades and the Wausau Homes team. We will definitely recommend The Wausau Homes to friends. They build a solid home that we know will weather the northern woods elements.
Builder Professionalism - Very much so!!!! We could contact our builder anytime. Mike shared his direct cell phone number. Since we were working long distance, our means of communication was by phone, emails and texting. Both Mike and Marisa along with the office team and suppliers work very efficiently and effectively to keep all informed on the same page.
Crew Professionalism - Very much so!!! The Wausau construction team were very hospitable and professional. The team on "set" day worked amazedly efficient who had the entire home stick built by the end of the day as promised by Mike Brighumm. All the individual trades during the construction were friendly and professional with great workmanship skills. Our home displays beautiful decorative elements thanks to the excellent craftsmanships from the trades hired by Wausau Homes.
Satisfaction - Mike Brighumm kept using the term "tight house" as we worked together on the planning stages of our home. He was right! Our home is rock solid - with warm windows, doors and a dry crawl space or as Mike calls it - "mini basement". The decorative elements exhibits superb craftsmanship throughout our home. We couldn't be happier.
I couldn't be happier with my new home. It was built by Gagne Homes and I love it so much. I love my home and I am super happy.
Quote Match - I did end up having to change a few things, but they were consistent with what they charged me.
Differentiating Factors - The builder paid attention to detail and were exceptional at the quality of work they do. They took extreme pride and ownership in their work.
Working with Jed at Wausau Homes was great. Easy to communicate with and always very personable. My wife and I were 4 hours away from the build site and Jed made it feel like we were on site almost every day.
Quote Match - Even with the build being in the middle of Covid-19, things remained at quoted prices.
Builder Professionalism - Jed met my expectations and beyond.
Contact - I knew the reputation of Wausau Homes and i really like how the building process worked. Knowing that the house was not going to be built in the outside elements is a huge plus.
Differentiating Factors - The biggest thing that sets Wausau Homes apart form other builders is the build process. Having the house built offsite and then being delivered and set on site is the best quality. Not having the build exposed to the weather week after week is very assuring.
Additional Comments - If we would ever build another house, Wausau Homes would get the first call. If we built in Mercer again, Jed is on the top of the list.
I wish there was better communication and more timely updates.
The Hackers were great to work with. Easy to communicate with, honest and available through the whole process.
This was a great experience and would recommend this builder.
I have already recommended our builder to others. Everyone was so easy to work with, friendly, and so experienced at what they do. This is the fourth house we've built, and the experience, as well as the final product, are the best we've had!
Final Design - We couldn't be happier with the design of our home! Getting to that final design was a joy, too. They helped us understand the decisions and choices we had to make, presented options for consideration, and provided updated plans with the latest changes. No surprises. We were always kept on top of things.
Builder Professionalism - Everyone was knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. Wonderful experience!
Crew Professionalism - Whenever we came by, we were treated very well. Wausau Homes must instill great customer relations in all their people.
Builder Satisfaction - At our meeting for the walk-through of the completed home, they did an excellent job of showing us several features we might not have otherwise thought to look into. Details were also provided on all important systems and what to do if we encountered any issues at all. They will follow up with us, too, as we approach a year in the house to be sure we have no unresolved issues.
Additional Comments - I would encourage anyone planning to build to contact Wausau Homes in Minocqua at the earliest possible time. We started talking with them before we'd even found our property. They worked with us through the whole time.
Schedule - We actually moved in earlier than the date promised.
Differentiating Factors - Paul & Wendy Communicated everything clearly, really professional at their explanations.
The material supply issues required us to "settle" with available choice options, otherwise certainly agree to recommend to others.
Builder Professionalism - Terry Steinman was attentive, instructive and guided us every step of the way.
Contact - I drove past the Wausau Homes complex near Wausau for years and it just made sense in Wisconsin to get it done that way so it could be built during the winter, inside.
Differentiating Factors - He knows the area where we built. His subcontractors are dependable. We trusted him.
Differentiating Factors - Wausau Homes Medford were on top of everything. People were courteous and clean. It was very professionally done. I was very happy with everything.
Areas of Improvement - Wausau Homes Medford did a very good job. They were great. This is the best experience I have had. This is my second home.
Additional Comments - Carry and Jason were just wonderful throughout the entire experience. Carry on the design and Jason on the building were super to work with. Questions were addressed right away. It was a great experience.
Want the job done right, then get in touch with Mike at Wausau Homes Tomahawk. He will share ideas, listen to your ideas and build the best home for you and yours. You will not be disappointed.
Additional Comments - My home is exactly what I wanted and I love being warm and happy.
Attentive, responsible, timely. They were right on target with their plans from day one. We moved in one week later than anticipated (Dec 6) from their intended date in March. The crews were pleasant and professional; did their jobs in a timely manner, for the most part. There were a few supply chain issues but everything went off as planned. Their follow-up is on point. Jason & Jeremy are a very good outside- inside team; both doing their jobs well. Jason kept the job site moving forward and Jeremy ALWAYS responded to needs or questions. Well done.
I have already recommended them to several folks!
Differentiating Factors - Responsiveness when called, texted, or emailed. Absolute honesty even on the tough changing landscape of building and materials currently.
Additional Comments - Crazy how many decisions there are to make even when much is pre-planned. And yet Terry Steinman was very easy to work with!
Chris and Brian Pesola were both always great to work with and we greatly appreciate all of their hard work in finishing our house!
Brian and Mitch made the home building experience easy and fun for my whole family. They were always approachable and gave immediate and timely responses.
Final Design - My whole family enjoys the house we picked.. Mitch was able to help make adjustments to room sizes, added windows, and increased ceiling heights to the basement.
Contact - The speed and quality of building a home... and We enjoyed the house plans Wausau had on there website.
Differentiating Factors - There ability to take us on as a client.. many smaller home builders could not start until summer time and we needed to get our project moving as soon as possible.
Areas of Improvement - Brian and Mitch have the perfect system. I can not think of a thing they need to change.
Additional Comments - We loved coming to see our house get delivered and assembled in a few hours.. Brian and Mitch put together a very nice BBQ for my family and friends. The whole neighborhood enjoyed watching the house get built. Unlike a previous house build you could easily see the progress and speed of a Wausau home.
Josh Osmer was thorough and always on top of everything. Great to work with.
