“…We used Carmel Builders for two projects this last year (re-roofing and kitchen remodel) and think they are absolutely the best! Their customer service is fabulous.”
Our Philosophy
Building on passion and possibility
We believe in homes, not houses. We believe in the positive impact a space can have on you and your family when created with them in mind. We believe in function and form, creating an environment that is both practical and beautiful. We believe in your vision because we’re in this together; our goal as your partner is to help you realize your dreams.
Every remodel starts with your vision and a simple question: What do you want? Together we clearly articulate and define your wants and needs and come to an understanding of what you value most. In short, we build a relationship.
…We can honestly say that we have no regrets about hiring Carmel Builders! We believe that your design-build process was an excellent choice for us. We value your commitment to excellence!
Kelly & David Y.
Dedicated to your vision for 38 years.
Partners in Quality.
Homeowners and contractors should be partners. It’s a sentiment our founder Tom Weiher embraced 37 years ago – and it is the cornerstone of our business today. Family owned and operated from the very beginning, Carmel Builders extends that partnership to only the very best artisans and craftsmen in the region. It is what has made us one of the most respected design and remodeling firms in southeastern Wisconsin – and your choice for realizing your vision of the perfect home.
THE BEST PEOPLE
We’re just as passionate about spaces as we are the people we collaborate with. We understand our organization is only as strong as the people supporting it and are honored to collaborate with such a dedicated team.
Awards and accolades
The high honors and praise we’ve received over the years are a testament to our commitment to your vision. We’re deeply proud of what we’ve accomplished together.
