There's nothing better than hearing directly from the people we've worked with.

We're grateful for every client who takes the time to share their experience. These words remind us why we do this work!

A few things have stayed consistent across 90-plus years at Ellis Construction.

We show up. We communicate honestly. We stand behind our work. And we care about the communities we build in — not just as job sites, but as places where people live, work, and spend their days.

Long-term relationships are one of the things we value most at Ellis Construction.

Many of our projects come from partnerships that have lasted years and in some cases, decades. That kind of trust is built through communication, consistency, and doing the job right from start to finish.

Working in natural spaces requires a different level of care.

For the Schmeeckle Reserve Amphitheater in Stevens Point, Ellis Construction worked closely with Rettler Corporation to create a space that fits naturally within the surrounding environment while still delivering long-term durability.

Even through difficult winter conditions, the team stayed focused on protecting and restoring the site throughout construction. The result is a space built for the community to gather, learn, and enjoy for years to come.

Some projects already mean a lot to the community before construction even begins.

Our renovation work at SentryWorld focused on modernizing the space while keeping the welcoming atmosphere people already knew and loved.

Community spaces matter, especially the ones kids grow up making memories in.

Ellis Construction was proud to help bring the Clintonville Parks & Recreation Department Aqua Park project to life. The multi-acre development includes a shelter, bathhouse, concessions building, pond, and water slides designed for local families to enjoy for years to come.

As summer gets closer, we can’t wait to see the community enjoy the space!

Earth Day is a good reminder that what we build doesn’t just impact today, it shapes what comes next.

At Ellis, we think about that from the start. Smarter site planning, responsible materials, and solutions that hold up over time aren’t extras. They’re part of doing the job right.

Because building for the future means taking care of what’s here now. 🌎
