## About

### Houzz Badges

- 100 Ideabook Saves

Dowling Construction Inc. was established in 1985 and is a family-owned and family-oriented business. We have expertise in all phases of construction from the ground up in both residential and commercial construction. We can also assist you with finding that perfect site for your project.

We are now expanding our business and expertise to the custom built modular home market by partnering with Wisconsin Homes and Stratford Homes, Wisconsin's premier modular home manufacturers. Your new home (designed by you or chosen from our many designs) is built inside a controlled environment eliminating the issues of weather conditions. All frame-work is done in jigs so every corner is precise. In the time it takes to get the financing of the project complete, the foundation can be installed and your home ordered and ready to be set. It is very possible to be in your new home in 4 to 10 weeks!

Wisconsin Homes & Stratford Homes custom built modular homes are not to be confused with a trailer/mobile home and not all manufactured/modular homes are built the same. Our modular homes are indeed built indoors but are built to meet Wisconsin UDC (Uniform Dwellings Code), not built to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards (HUD Code) in which mobile homes are built. During the building process, State inspectors come in and do regular inspections of the home in its different stages, the same as a site-built home. In addition to our custom built modular home being built indoors (out of the weather elements), it’s built using 25% more lumber (engineered to be stronger) and is more energy efficient. Also, the appraised value on a Wisconsin Homes custom modular home is the same, and sometimes better, than a typical site-built home.

### All 4 reviews

**★★★★★ — Laura Cooper, Oct. 2018**

> Very Pleased with this company.  Highly knowledgeable and down to earth people to work with.  They do all they can to take your vision and find you with the correct floor plan or even a custom floor plan until its right.  There was great communication between the general contractor and us through every step.  The whole process moved quickly and the crew was friendly and personable, which is the biggest reason we chose Dowling construction!

**Comment from Dowling Construction Inc:**

> Thank you for your review Laura.  We're so happy to have helped your vision become a reality - you have a very beautiful home!

**★★★★★ — Rick and Amy VanLandghen, May 2017**

> Dowling Construction listened to our requirements and exceeded expectations.  George was great in suggesting changes to plans to meet our needs.  We are extremely satisfied with our Wisconsin Home and would recommend Dowling Construction.

**Comment from Dowling Construction Inc:**

> Thank you Rick and Amy for taking the time to give us a review.  We're so happy you're enjoying your new home and making great memories.

**★★★★★ — Gladys Tollefson, March 2017**

> I met with several companies before I decided to go with Dowling Construction.  I chose Dowling because they weren't pushy and when I stated my budget constraints they honored my wishes - they did not try to sell me more than I could afford.  They were so helpful with the decisions I had to make.  The project manager George Jacob made me feel like I was a personal friend and treated me with the out most respect.  He was so knowledgeable in answering all my questions (heating, insulation, electrical, roofing, flooring, etc.).  They gave me a completion date and their projection was right on time.  I have recommended them to others.

**Comment from Dowling Construction Inc:**

> Thank you for your review and recommendations Gladys.  We're so happy you chose us to build your retirement home. It's great to hear that you didn't feel pressured, we were able to stay within your budget and make the whole process go as smooth as possible for you.  We will be seeing you soon.  :)

**★★★★★ — Daniel Schroeder, March 2017**

> Overall, a very good experience with Dowling as they built our Wisconsin Home.  George Jacob was absolutely terrific! He was always available and responded quickly to questions and concerns.  Guided us through the project step-by-step, and helped out in places he didn't even have to. Nicole in the office was on-the-spot as well, monitoring the costs and payments.  We ended up with a quality home at a fair price, and some new friends.

**Comment from Dowling Construction Inc:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to give us a review.  We're so glad to hear you're happy with your home and our services!  We look forward to working with you in the future.
