Before deciding to go with Harpe, I had reached out to several other builders, many of whom never responded to my emails. Chris responded to me promptly and was very patient with me as I asked for several price sheets and changes to his design proposals. I appreciated the in-house design studio where I could pick out paint colors, carpet, tile, doors, counter tops, flooring, etc. all under one roof- no traveling to different places. Trish was wonderful as the interior designer and was also very patient, friendly, and gave us great advice! Our project manager, Jason, was also great with communication and keeping us in the loop with timelines. This was our first time building a home and Harpe, but the staff walked us through each and every step and we always felt like we were in good hands. We have been in our house for about 5 months now and we LOVE it! Thank you to everyone at Harpe! **★★★★★ — HU-633027644, March 2025** > We had the pleasure of working with Harpe Development on a commercial remodel for our martial arts gym, Rothwell MMA. We couldn’t be more impressed with their quality and resourcefulness. The Harpe Team showed a true understanding of what we needed to create a functional, safe, and welcoming space for our athletes. > > When faced with unique challenges—like optimizing the layout for different training areas, sourcing durable flooring, and adjusting to specific equipment requirements- Dustin Harpe came up with creative and cost-effective solutions that we hadn't even considered. Dustin worked tirelessly to ensure that everything from the mat areas to the locker rooms was not only visually appealing but also built to handle the wear and tear of our athletes. The quality of work was top-notch, with every detail handled with precision and care. If any detail was slightly off, Dustin would make sure it was re-done until it met his strict expectations. > > We also appreciated the transparency in pricing and Dustin’s ability to collaborate with our team to ensure the design met our vision while remaining realistic and cost-effective. He was quick to suggest ideas that enhanced the gym's functionality while staying within our budget. > > We highly recommend Harpe Development for any commercial project. Their resourcefulness, expertise, and commitment to delivering the best result set them apart, and we will definitely turn to them for future projects. The attention to detail in the final result is clear. Our MMA gym is now a world-class training facility that is attracting athletes from around the globe. We are proud to call our new gym ‘home’ thanks to Harpe! - Ben & Jen Rothwell **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you, Rothwell MMA for the awesome review! It was a pleasure and an honor to work with you on bringing your vision into reality. Now we can brag that we built the facility for the BKFC Heavyweight Champion of the world! **★★★★★ — Erin Leitermann, Jan. 2025** > We built a custom home with Harpe and are extremely happy with the finished product. From our first meeting to getting the keys to our new home, Harpe Development exceeded our expectations. They were able to bring our vision to life while being mindful of our budget and timeline. We would recommend Harpe to anyone looking to build a custom home. **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for taking the time to give us a review Erin! I know that our team enjoyed working with you on your family's home! **★★★★★ — Trevor Weidner, Dec. 2024** > I highly reccomend using Harpe Development to build a home with. From top to bottom the process was transparent and professional. We cannot love our custom home anymore! Thank you Harpe. **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for the review, Trevor! We hope that you are enjoying your new home! Are you ready to build another one? :) **★★★★★ — Evan Teska, Dec. 2022** > We built with Harpe in 2014 and love our home. Unfortunately we had major issues with the roof installation and product as the roof aged. The original installer is out of business and no one uses the shingles we had anymore. We decided to replace the entire roof, Harpe stepped up and helped offset the cost, eight years after construction! They went out of their way to make it right. **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for the review, Evan! We stand behind our homes at Harpe Development LLC! Wrong is wrong today or in the future. Sometimes our contractors make mistakes but rest assured we will be there to correct it! **★★★★★ — Jeff Pinc, Nov. 2022** > Harpe built our dream home and our expectations were exceeded throughout the project and the final product delivered to us. The whole team who assisted us through the journey, were amazing, responsive and always professional. If you are building a home in SouthEast Wisconsin, this is the team you should select. > > Many thanks, Team Harpe! > > Jeff & Linnea Pinc > Dream Home Owners **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for the review Jeff it is much appreciated! We loved working with you! **★★★★★ — HU-124562494, Oct. 2022** > Our second time building with Harpe and we couldn’t of made a better choice! Phil helped us design our dream custom plans, Trish was amazing in the design center, and Jason was excellent at managing our project. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and our home. **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for your review Grace we loved working with you again! **★★★★★ — Lisa Schmidt, Oct. 2022** > Our family decided it was time to move up to a bigger home. As we started looking at existing houses, we realized we could not find exactly what we were looking for in our price range. That all changed when we walked into the Harpe Development model and met with Dustin and Cory, the owners. Dustin quickly assessed what we were looking to build and showed us a couple of prints that were within our price range. Although there was no pressure to sign a contract or build with him that day, he was very happy to take us to view a house, in trim stage, similar to the print we liked so we could get a feel for the layout. Within 24 hours Dustin had sent us a price to build the house with all the upgrades that we had discussed in our meeting. At this point we still had to find a lot, and again Dustin went above and beyond giving us information on available lots that he thought were a good deal in the current housing environment and in the area that we wanted to build. We closed on a lot at the end of January and Harpe Development dug the hole on February 1st. The in house designer was very easy to work with and continually updated and changed the plans until the house was exactly what we wanted. During the build process, Cory was fantastic at returning phone calls and meeting with us to discuss and re-discuss the details that we were putting into the house. Since we had never built a house before we required a lot of assistance which seemed second nature to Dustin, Cory. Our house was finished on 5/14/10 (three months and two weeks for the total build) as promised and on budget. We are very happy with our new, Energy Star qualified, home. It is EXACTLY what we wanted. We could not have had a better experience building a new home. We would strongly recommend Harpe Development to anyone considering building or moving. **Comment from Harpe Development LLC:** > Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review Lisa! **★★★★★ — Holly Burns, Oct. 2022** > Thank-you Harpe Development for building our beautiful new home!! Building for the first time was a little scary, but Dustin and his team took our fears away and built us our dream home. Coming from a house with only three bedrooms he created a home for us that had an open feel with 5 bedrooms. Dustin and his design team are great listeners and has always been there to answer questions for us. They are easy to get a hold of and always calls back in a timely fashion. Thank you to John for his help with all of our selections to make our home feel like home. I would and have recommend Harpe Development to family and friends. WE LOVE our new home and could not be happier!!! **★★★★★ — Katie Willis, May 2020** > Could not have asked for a better builder through this journey. Phil and Tricia have been nothing short of amazing! Phil was amazing to work with. Honest, quick to respond, and greatly valued his input. Tricia was definitely a Godsend to us and this house wouldn’t have been as beautiful without her input! She was so patient with me at the end especially when it was getting stressful! Special thanks to Jason for getting this completed on time! Everything was up front, no hidden costs, no hidden agendas. If we ever built again (let’s hope we don’t lol), I would honestly never build with anyone but Harpe. ❤️ **★★★★★ — Stephanie Santarelli, Aug. 2018** > I want to sincerely thank Harpe Development for our beautiful home. With 4 children now, we really out grew our previous house and it was time for an upgrade. And WHAT an upgrade it is! Building a house is not the easiest thing to do especially when you re not handy or design savvy. But Dustin, Cory, John & Jason really made the process an easy one. I can t imagine if I didn t have Cory & John to help me pick all the things that make a house beautiful and a good fit for my family. Any request I had was always granted, but not before we discussed our options and pricing first. That s what I loved the most. There were no hidden costs, or attempts to push upgrades in places where we didn t want or need them. Harpe was always very straight forward with all so there weren t any surprises. Any time an issue occurred a solution was provided . This surprised me as well...given we were building a pretty large house. Honestly for all the things that went right when building with Harpe, they exceeded our expectations. A special shout out to Jason for this! He always had a handle on everything on-site, working with contractors and fielding my phone calls/emails daily with questions or changes. His response time was always quick and courteous! Everyone told us building a house was awful, too much work and not worth the time. Apparently those people didn t build with Harpe. I m sure glad we didn t listen. Thank you everyone for the beautiful home! We look forward to a lifetime of memories thanks to you! ## Selected projects - [The Charelston](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-charelston-pj-vj~7286728) - Location: Bristol, WI - Photos: 110 - [Ashbury East Custom Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ashbury-east-custom-home-pj-vj~7048250) - Location: Pleasant Prairie, WI - Photos: 39 - [The Westchester II](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-westchester-ii-pj-vj~7026078) - Location: Pleasant Prairie, WI - Photos: 57 - [Kingston II](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kingston-ii-pj-vj~6739125) - Location: Burlington, WI - Photos: 100 - [Kingston Kings Cove, Pleasant Prairie Wisconsin](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kingston-kings-cove-pleasant-prairie-wisconsin-pj-vj~7050716) - Location: Pleasant Prairie, WI - Photos: 41 - [The Bridgeport](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-bridgeport-pj-vj~4178677) - Location: Trevor, WI - Photos: 35 - [Custom Ranch With Detached Garage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-ranch-with-detached-garage-pj-vj~7050823) - Location: Somers, WI - Photos: 13 - [Custom 1.5 Story](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-1-5-story-pj-vj~6739191) - Location: Salem, WI - Photos: 183 - [2800sf Custom 2 Story, Brighton Wisconsin](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2800sf-custom-2-story-brighton-wisconsin-pj-vj~7050729) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 54 - Description: 2800 square-foot custom two-story home with finished basement - [Custom In Meadowdale](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-in-meadowdale-pj-vj~5592998) - Location: Pleasant Prairie, WI - Photos: 155 - [The Cambridge](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-cambridge-pj-vj~4192218) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 73 - [Meadowdale Custom Two Story Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/meadowdale-custom-two-story-home-pj-vj~4192133) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 84 - [2547sf Fairfield Model](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2547sf-fairfield-model-pj-vj~7050739) - Location: Mukwonago, WI - Photos: 45 - [The Monterey](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-monterey-pj-vj~4191993) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 68 - [Custom Lexington](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-lexington-pj-vj~6781664) - Location: Franksville, WI - Photos: 98 - [Cavanaugh Court Custom Two Story Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cavanaugh-court-custom-two-story-home-pj-vj~4192042) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 80 - [The Weston (Eagle)](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-weston-eagle-pj-vj~7050820) - Location: Eagle, WI - Photos: 18 - Description: The Weston model in Eagle Wisconsin - [Green Bay Trail (13) condominiums located in Pleasant Prairie Wisconsin](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/green-bay-trail-13-condominiums-located-in-pleasant-prairie-wisconsin-pj-vj~7050763) - Location: Pleasant Prairie, WI - Photos: 26 - Description: Custom luxury ranch condominiums located in Pleasant Prairie Wisconsin - [Green Bay Trail luxury condominiums, Pleasant Prairie Wisconsin](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/green-bay-trail-luxury-condominiums-pleasant-prairie-wisconsin-pj-vj~7050750) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Green Bay Trail Condos Bldg. 4 Finished Basements Inc](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/green-bay-trail-condos-bldg-4-finished-basements-inc-pj-vj~7050778) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 36 [See all 138 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/harpe-development-llc-pfvwus-pf~1479581895) ## Ideabooks - [Dustin's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/112623980/list/dustin-s-ideas) — 4 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/dustin-harpe) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
