Over the years we’ve developed a strong reputation for building timeless landmark homes throughout the Northwoods. As builders of luxurious designer homes, it is our uncompromising dedication to the tiniest of details that make all the difference. It all started small in 1977, building decks, additions, and garages. And the lessons we learned then are still the ones we heade today: that a customer’s needs are one thing, but their dream is quite another. Our goal: satisfy the need – but delight the dream. IT IS OUR DEDICATION TO THE TINIEST OF DETAILS THAT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE The company was built on the idea that every home, cabin, lodge, or cottage that we designed and built would always reflect the distinct personalities of the people who live, work and play there. That ideal paired with exceptional craftsmanship and a flair for design quickly cemented Benson Builders as the premier custom home builder in the Northern Wisconsin and Northwoods areas including Land O’ Lakes, Conover, Eagle River, Three Lakes, St. Germain, Minocqua, Lac Du Flambeau, Boulder Junction, Manitowish Waters, Presque Isle, Watersmeet, Iron River, Phelps, and Lake Tomahawk. By the 1980’s, Benson Builders was known throughout Northern Wisconsin for its quality, integrity, and service. A home designed, built, renovated or added on to by Benson Builders is noted for its style, grace, and quality. In the early 1990’s, the demand for full log and hybrid log homes grew and Benson Builders was credited with being the leader in this emerging market. Many of our homes have been featured in national magazines, including Log Home Living, Log Homes Illustrated, Distinctive Wood Homes, Log Home Design Ideas, Cabin Life and Traditional Home. WE PROVIDE OUR CUSTOMERS WITH UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY AND EXCEPTIONAL PERSONALIZED SERVICE Today Benson Builders continues to specialize in the custom design and construction of conventionally-framed, timber and handcrafted, full log Northwoods cottages, lodges and homes. Additionally, a large portion of our projects involves additions and renovations to many of the cottages and lake homes that were built in the area throughout the 1900’s. We provide our customers with uncompromising quality and exceptional personalized service during every phase of the building process – from our first contact until the last detail is complete.

"Following several meetings with Benson Builders early 2018, we entered into a remodeling contract to refurbish and update a 1991 Log Home. The estimated cost of the project was just over $255,000 plus additional design services of $9840 with an estimated completion date of mid-July, 2018. We assumed that there would be touch-up and punch list items to complete after July, but had no indication that as of April 2019 that many unresolved items would remain. During the project, we approved upgrades to HVAC, insulation and other items totaling approx. $22k. Combined with the original estimate this is a total of $305k. As of this review (April, 2019), we have paid Benson over $334k or $29k over the original estimate. In addition to this overage we completed and paid for ourselves over $5000 of work originally included in the scope of the estimate that was removed from Benson’s scope. In total, we have over $41k of additional costs to complete the scope of work, and the job remains incomplete as of April 2019. We provided communication to Benson about our concerns to their not meeting the completion date many times. On July 11, 2018 we received a communication from the owner of Benson Builders that all incomplete items on a list provided by the owner would be completed the week of July 30, 2018. In regard to the quality of workmanship and work that was not completed, I will let the pictures tell the story. Some of the incomplete work was completed by us at separate expense, the pictures represent how these items were left prior to our completing the work separate from Benson or remain incomplete today. NOTE: Upload of pictures is limited to 10, I have many, many more. Lastly, we experienced a significant failure causing damage to the home - I can provide details."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

It pays to hire a project manager or general contractor when you have a large-scale project that will take over a week to complete, especially when it involves structural changes and multiple subcontractors. This includes hiring a general contractor to build a house, add an extension, or manage other projects that need a building permit.

Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project.
