Build something beautiful.
At ELM Homes, every project starts with family. Not just ours, but yours. As a custom home builder and remodeling contractor serving Hudson, Wisconsin, the St. Croix Valley, the Twin Cities, and the East Metro, we believe a home is more than walls and a roof—it’s where memories are made, where life happens, and where families grow together.
Our approach combines care, clarity, and structure. From new home construction and full-scale remodeling to roofing, siding, and exterior renovations, our process is designed to keep you informed, supported, and confident every step of the way. From the first conversation to the final walkthrough, we bring organization and transparency to every phase of your project.
We work with you, not just for you. Every decision, every detail, and every stage - whether it's a custom home build, home addition, kitchen or basement remodel, sports court, or golf simulator installation is collaborative. Our goal is to guide you through the construction process with expertise and clear communication, so the result reflects your family’s needs, vision, and values.
With ELM Homes, building in Hudson, WI and across the Twin Cities East Metro is personal, predictable, and purposeful. Our team treats your home like it matters—because it does—and we are in it together with you.
