Southeast Wisconsin
Design-build remodeling in Elm Grove.
Monarch designs residential projects in Elm Grove — whole-home remodels, kitchens, bathrooms, additions and accessory dwellings — and coordinates each through construction as one project rather than a series of separate trades.
Building in Elm Grove
What projects here involve.
Elm Grove runs a Building Board, and its review comes before the Building Inspector issues a permit. No other municipality in this market adds that step. It is a $50 submission fee and a place in a meeting calendar, so it belongs in the schedule from the first conversation rather than being discovered later.
The village prices the two halves of a project differently: an addition is $0.41 per square foot with a $110 minimum, while remodeling is charged by valuation at $14 per $1,000. Addition plan review is $100. Permit fees are doubled for work started without a permit.
Services
What we build in Elm Grove.
Whole Home Remodeling
Two coordinated whole-house services — reconfiguration with layout changes, and comprehensive renovation where building systems are a principal objective.
Window Replacement & Installation
Window replacement and new openings across Waukesha and Milwaukee counties — insert, full-frame and siding-removal installation, with the finish work put back properly.
Kitchen Remodeling
Full kitchen renovation — layout, cabinetry, surfaces, lighting and the trades behind them.
Bathroom Remodeling
Bathroom renovation with the waterproofing, ventilation and plumbing done properly.
Home Additions
Adding conditioned square footage — structure, systems and roofline tied into the existing house.
ADUs & In-Law Suites
Detached and attached accessory dwellings — guest space, family space or rental space.
Basement & Lower Level Finishing
Finishing and reconfiguring lower levels in Southeast Wisconsin — family rooms, bedrooms and baths below grade, planned around moisture, egress and headroom before anything is framed.
Interior Remodeling
Two interior scopes — a whole-home finish refresh that keeps the layout and systems, and focused reconfiguration of selected rooms.
Outdoor Living
Patios, decks, pergolas and outdoor kitchens built for a freeze-thaw climate and a short season.
Exterior Remodeling
Siding, windows, doors and exterior finishes that hold up to a freeze-thaw climate.
Design & Preconstruction
The planning stage where scope, drawings, selections and budget are resolved before building.
Starting a project in Elm Grove
Start with a consultation. We look at the space, talk through what you want to change and what you want to keep, and set out what the design and preconstruction stage would involve for your project.
