All reviews for Compass Construction & Remodeling

Compass have been great in the pre-design and design phase. Excellent to work with and always positive! Great design build firm! I can't wait to see the finished work!

Had them help me finish some work on my duplex that I knew was outside of my wheelhouse. Got a quote shortly after calling and had them fit me in between some larger jobs. Kept my timeline on track.

Compass was very professional and knowledgeable about the project. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good contractor in the area.

They did an excellent job for me, very professional and I finished everything in the agreed time, thanks.

The stairs that lead to our basement are more than likely the original set from the 50s. They were falling apart and were increasingly less safe to walk down. Brett and William came out to inspect the staircase. My wife and I originally thought we might need to replace the entire staircase, but they suggested a reinforcement (so we could keep the original wood). The carpenters arrived on time and got the job done ahead of schedule (also at a much lower rate than the initial quote). Can't recommend this company enough. Kind, professional, and quick. I will turn to them again for my next project!

Hired Compass to do a bathroom remodel, they were quick to respond and come out to take a look at our project and give an estimate. Even though there were a few bumps along the way, they did a great job resolving and completing the project for a reasonable cost. If you are in the Milwaukee area, we recommend giving Compass a call.

It was amazing to have Compass doing our project!!! High level of project management. All people involved on all steps were super professional and helpful!

I hired Compass for almost a complete renovation of half of a duplex in the Milwaukee Area. They installed all new flooring, windows, countertops, bathroom remodels, lighting and paint throughout. Brett came out for the estimate and was very friendly and personable and William was the GC of the job and always kept me in the loop with pictures and progress. Would recommend if looking for a remodel job.

We finished our basement in a 100+ year old home that required a lot of creative solutions to problems. They were amazing from start to finish and we couldn’t be happier. Always quick to respond and attentive to our needs, questions and concerns. Very respectful of our budget too. Best of all, every Compass employee that came into our home was courteous and friendly. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

My wife and I hired Compass Construction to wrap all of our fascia boards, replace our soffits and install new gutters on our house. Customer service was great from pre-construction all the way to post-construction. The Compass Construction team was always easy to get ahold of when questions arose and their onsite crews were very professional. I would highly recommend Compass Construction for your next home remodel.

I had the opportunity to use Compass Construction recently. The experience was amazing. I work with a lot of contractors for my job and it is such a relieve to have contractors show up on time ready to work, that act and look professional. They are the easiest company to work with and they did an amazing job. Everything they touched turned out wonderfully.

Compass Construction recently completed a very challenging balcony renovation project at our four story condominium complex. They made sure the work was done properly. They worked seamlessly with 11 different owners to fit different schedules.

Compass Construction designed and built me a custom greenhouse (technically solarium since it's adjacent to the house) in Milwaukee. Per my preferences, Compass did my project fully by the book including seeking out multiple permits and managing any project changes coming from the permit reviewers with the County. The work included grading, a thick concrete pour, framing carpentry, windows/doors/through-wall fans, wiring, and an electric service upgrade to 200 amp. The breadth of the work shows just some of the breadth of what Compass is capable of within their on-staff team as well as among carefully selected business partners. These folks were extremely professional and they know their stuff, but when they haven't seen a given challenge in the past, they will do significant research to ensure they'll deliver a great product. This design and build required a good amount of research and unusual logistics, and they brought great ideas and options for how to manage them. Compass will be my first call for ANY future projects, and I recommend the same for you no matter what construction or remodeling you need.

Compass completed a nearly full gut job on the upstairs of our 100 yr old bungalow, converting our house from a duplex to a single family. The lead carpenter and sub contractors were all awesome to work with and we couldn't be happier with the end result.

Where they excel: professionalism, quality of work, excellent subcontractors, transparent communication, transparent costs.

Where they could improve: echoing some comments below, closure of the project and finishing the final punch list stretched out weeks beyond our projected completion date.

All in all, would I hire them again? Most definitely yes!

We had the opportunity to work with Compass on adding a 2nd floor bathroom. The team was great to work with. They were respectful of our budget, flexible with timing, and transparent with what was being done. The team always kept us updated on when they would arrive, which was extremely helpful with my work schedule. They provided quality work, included us in each phase, and ensured we were satisfied throughout the project. We hope to work with them again for future projects!

Compass did a fantastic job on my basement remodel. The design recommendations and the finished product exceeded my expectations. I finally have an extension to my living space thanks to the folks at Compass. We will definitely be reaching out with more work.

Compass has completed two different projects for me and I will absolutely work with them again in the future. The first project involved addressing a previously improperly installed footing for a 3rd story balcony. The second project was the rebuild of a front porch to address leaks that we found during the inspection of a property I was purchasing.

The outcomes of both projects are just what I hoped for, and the communication and engagement throughout was great.

Working with Compass Construction on the extensive remodel of one of my downtown MKE rental units was a fantastic experience! The knowledge and experience that they provided throughout the duration of my project was invaluable - I look forward to working with Compass again knowing that they will be able to single-handedly help me ensure my next project's success!!

Compass Construction did a fantastic job with our difficult and complicated project. After over 2 years and several other crews had tried (and mostly failed) to finish the repairs this bunch did it on time and within our agreed budget parameters. Communication was excellent. Questions and concerns were addressed quickly and resolved (not that we had many but there are always details that need to be ironed out).

Workers arrived on time and were working hard throughout the day while they were on the job. They cleaned up the work area each day and made consistent (quite fast) progress. I would not hesitate to hire them again.

Our house is 130 years old so custom shingles needed to be cut and installed in certain areas. Trim pieces needed to be found that would blend with what was already there. There were many corners and tricky areas that needed repairs. It’s wonderful to have it all finished and looking so good. (Painter contractor will do that part of the job soon so the photos do not show the final paint scheme).

Our job was not an easy fix. Compass worked with us and committed to doing the job within our budget, coming in on time with high quality work. I highly recommend them.

An excellent job all around! Compass Construction helped us handle a couple big projects including a kitchen remodel, plaster repair throughout the home, our master bath and our custom-built TV storage wall.

The kitchen was a really weird size with four doors, but they fit in everything we asked for from a pantry cabinet, buffet cabinet, full-sized appliances and a minimalist island. The master bath now has a heated floor which is heavenly in the winter. The TV wall is my favorite; not only does it look gorgeous, but there is so much storage and hidden storage, and I love not having to see TV/console wires anymore.

Their estimate was the most detailed from any other contractor. They didn't just give us a number, they gave us a breakdown of where funds would go. The design process was accurate and detail-oriented encompassing exactly what we wanted. They gave a timeline to get things done and discussed with us a solution when a delay did happen. Thank you for your time and your dedication to all of the details!

As you can see from the pictures, my bathroom remodel turned out beautifully. I loved working with their designer Alex to help my vision come to life on a budget.

I also really enjoyed working with lead carpenter Michael and his team once the project began. I work from home with a dog and cat so good communication and knowing when there would be noisy days was critical. Great attention to detail and communication as any hurdles came up in gutting and remodeling my over 100 year old home.

Although the project took longer than expected, when I shared my concerns with Compass they let me know they were already working on organizational improvements based on customer feedback. This plus their high quality work makes for a 5-star review.
