It’s Official… Our Home is Complete!!
What a journey this has been! From the very first shovel in the ground to the final touches, it’s incredible to see it all come together.
This build has been a huge undertaking, and we won’t lie, it hasn’t always been easy. Some moments were stressful, challenging, and even a little scary. But through all the ups and downs, every step has been worth it.
We couldn’t have done it without the incredible people who brought this home to life. Every subcontractor we worked with showed skill, care, and professionalism that made the process smoother and the results spectacular. From the foundation to the finishing touches, each team played a vital role:
• American Door Works – Garage doors and openers that are second to none.
• JRD Masonry – Stunning exterior stonework.
• Minnesota Home Improvements – We love our Lindsay Windows and patio doors!
• Gendeco Granite – Gorgeous quartz countertops, perfectly installed.
• Liberty Electric Co. Inc. – Flawless electrical work from start to finish.
• Mechanical Brothers Plumbing and Heating – HVAC and plumbing experts who went above and beyond.
• Screen Pro Screen Enclosures – Our amazing screen porch—done right.
• Koshiol Construction LLC (Joe) – The best in the business for roofing, siding, and exteriors.

• Intex Insulating – Excellent work keeping our home energy efficient and cozy.
• Gielen Painting – Incredible painter who made everything shine.
• Can Am Drywall – Perfectly smooth walls and ceilings.
• Hansen Flooring Gallery – Beautiful flooring throughout our home.
• Kevin Ramler Construction – We can’t say enough about how blessed we were to have Kevin Ramler (Chad’s dad), his brother Bryan, and Dona's (Chad's Mom) help along the way, from trimming and hanging interior doors to advice, cleanup, and even watching the kids so we could get things done. ❤️
…and so many more who helped along the way. Every one of these teams went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for their work, expertise, and care.
If you’re looking for trusted local professionals, we can’t recommend these folks enough. They truly are the best in the business.
This house isn’t just a building; it’s the result of teamwork, perseverance, and faith in the process. We’re so excited to make memories here, share it with family and friends, and enjoy everything that went into creating it.
Thank you again to everyone who was part of this journey. We couldn’t have done it without you! ❤️
