Home Construction & Remodeling Gratiot, WI

When Gratiot, WI homeowners want construction or remodeling work done right the first time, they call Oak Leaf Home Construction & Electrical. Named after Henry Gratiot, the French-American trader who established one of Wisconsin’s earliest lead-mining settlements here back in 1826, this community has been built on hard work from the start. Of course, in a village with roots that deep, shortcuts don’t cut it. Our team brings that same commitment to every project we take on, whether it is breaking ground on a new custom home, updating a cramped kitchen, finishing an underused basement, or adding square footage with a thoughtfully designed room addition. We manage every permit, coordinate every inspection, and never cut corners on materials or craftsmanship. Gratiot homeowners get a contractor who shows up on time, communicates clearly, and delivers results worth talking about.
