As the Midwest’s leading homebuilder, Wausau Homes has over 60 years of experience, making the process stress-free from start to finish.
THE WAUSAU HOMES HISTORY
Over the last 60 years, Wausau Homes has refined a system of controlled construction that has revolutionized the industry. Wausau Homes originated as a dairy route in rural Marathon County Wisconsin. The Schuette Brothers used profits from that modest milk route to purchase a sawmill, where raw timbers were processed into framing lumber.
After the war, the brothers developed that sawmill into a one-stop building center, where contractors could purchase all of their materials for home construction from one source. With all the elements for home construction in place as their building center, the brothers tinkered with a revolutionary concept that grew to become Wausau Homes Incorporated.
WHAT SETS US APART
Wausau Homes started out as a lumberyard in the 1950s in Wausau, Wisconsin servicing local builders, but believed there had to be a better way to build homes. So we pioneered, and for nearly 60 years we fine-tuned a complete building system that is recognized as one of the best in the industry.
We work exclusively with carefully chosen independent professional custom home builders in local markets because they know the local codes and regulations, they have established relationships with reputable subcontractors in the area, and they are the most suited to do the best job for you. Your Wausau Homes Builder will help you with every step of the homebuilding process to make it a stress-free experience. Hide

The cost, combined with how many issues we have had post build have been frustrating. We did not expect to be spending so much time living in construction.

Build came in close to budget and in a very timely manor.... Wausau was easy to work with!

Wausau Homes Minocqua provided excellent customer service from the first visit to closing. Wausau Homes Minocqua was outstanding. They always answered our phone calls and questions, and the people they had working for them were outstanding.
Terry W.
I would recommend a Wausau Home to friends and family but I would strongly recommend a different representative/general contractor than who we had for our home. Our home was one of his first homes and we feel he lacked experience.
Jeff G.
No surprises in the estimating, design or quality of the project. Mike was a dream to work with and now considered a friend, as well as the build crew. They are excellent examples of why to stay local
Steve P.
Definitely yes. The quality of the home is excellent.

I presented a plan to the builder and we were able to design a home that fit my needs.

Nick and Matt were amazing to work with. Nick went above and beyond to guide us in the planning process. Our new home was built with quality workmanship. It exceeds our dreams. We always got a timely response or follow-up with questions. We had guidance and support throughout the entire process from a very knowledgeable team. We could not have asked for better contractors!

Bauer Estates LLC builds the Wausau Homes in Spring Valley and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone due to all the issues we are/have had with them.
