What Our Customers Say
Phil Borowicz
I would like to start off by saying this is the second time I have used Vesel Construction. The first time was because of an unfortunate garage incident which we won't get into details about! The second time was for my new deck which was added onto the side of my garage. From the start of both projects, I met with Mike. He's not your regular pushy "salesman." But someone who truly looks out for the customers best interest. He offered suggestions which I didn't think of and opened my eyes to other options. Mike is down to earth, and very easy to work with. I appreciate his honesty. Brian was here for my first project. I spoke with him many times throughout. He's a hardworking guy with a great personality. He truly takes pride in the work he does. Brian does not cut corners and made sure the job was completed to my specifications. He is a great asset to this company! He is a major reason for my second call. I was able to meet Dan who worked on my new deck. All I can say is the guy is a beast! Minimal breaks in the hot July sun! He took the time to make sure my deck was done to my liking. Thanks Dan for a great job! Dan and Brian, thank you for your hard work and your attention to detail. Your work ethics are proven in your quality craftmanship. I told Mike at the end of my second project that I won't call anyone else anymore if I have future work to be done. Vesel will be my one and only call for now on. I honestly mean that. From the initial quote to project finish, this company takes pride in their work and treating customers fairly. Do not hesitate to call Vesel for your next project. Trust me, I have used them twice now and I won't call anyone else if I have a future job. Thank you again Brian, Dave and Mike! Great job!

An excellent experience from start to finish. The installers were courteous, timely and cleaned up work area well. Installation of 4 new windows. Would recommend to others.
Jason Jaros
We really enjoyed working with Vesel, especially with the difficulty we've had just finding companies to do work on other projects, let alone schedule around their availability. Our project was a remodeled basement (carpet, some walls, paint, etc. due to a broken septic line between two section of our home. We were very happy they could fit us in relatively quickly after another company did the pipe repairs. Michael was clear and upfront with the project details, the team were polite and clear on what they needed and how long things would take. Overall a good experience and I would for sure recommend Vesel to others in the area.
Stev N
We have used Vesel Construction several different times for separate repairs, installations, painting, smoke damage, wall paper removal, etc. Dan Vesel is a very honest & reliable contractor.
Christine Brown
I own an antique house that needs a few upgrades, and a rental business so, expert and equitable work is essential to my home-life and to the people who count on me for a great rental experience. Michael and Dan were very attentive to my specific ideas and wishes. Excellent work, and timely. I will definitely call on Vesel Construction again for future projects.
John H
I worked with Vesel Construction on a major rebuild following a residential fire. Michael and the team were awesome to work with. The quality of work was outstanding, they worked well with my insurance adjuster and represented my interests. A project like this could have been riddled with headaches, but Vesel handled it all for me. I recommend Vesel Construction very highly.
Gary Olsen
My husband and I live down near Madison, Wi but recently bought a smaller 2 bedroom home near our daughter in Duluth's Lakeside area. We needed a 1/2 bath put in the basement. My Duluth piano tuner tuned me in to Vesel Construction and they were easy and very reliable to work with. Once we signed the contract we had to interact primarily remotely...[due to 2 knee surgeries and 2 electrical issues with our truck] so we never got to to see what was going on till we made it up to Duluth to view the final project. Wow it was great. Dan and Mike were easy to work with and so helpful. Also I was worried to see what kind of mess they might have left. Well no worries. I actually joked about hiring them to clean the house because they did such a great job of leaving our house in good condition. We will definitely hire them again for any other projects our 70 year old house might need. Gaila Olsen

I have worked with many various construction contractors though out my career and at home. Vesel Construction is one of the best contractors I have worked with. We had significant roof damage to our attached garage this past winter. Turns out the trusses were not made properly and failed. I called Vesel on Monday morning and they responded within an hour and proceeded to shore up the trusses to avoid further collapse saving the structure. They then proceeded to work closely with my insurance company to ensure the repairs were done properly. Their workmanship is excellent, they are professional and know what they are doing. They were able to repair the trusses in place to a level that now exceeds all structural requirements. I had some time constraints and they were able to work in my project in a very timely manner. From my experience working with them, I doubt you would be disappointed.

Great job installing cabinets in our facility dining space; courteous and professional.
Kerry Anderson-Garthus
Six years ago while we were working, a pipe burst in our upstairs bathroom, flooding through to the basement. It was an awful mess but Vesel Construction took care of all of it. Since that time we hired Vesel for two other significant projects. The current owner, Mike Sipper, is great to work with. He is responsive, trustworthy, fair, efficient and does BEAUTIFUL work. We can’t say enough good things. I would hire Mike/Vesel Construction for anything we need in the future.

Worked with them on a project in Duluth MN. Very nice to talk to, and seemed to be on top of the project pretty well.

I am a kitchen and bath designer in Duluth, MN and I recently partnered with Vesel on my client's remodel after a fire. They are very knowledgeable and helpful and work with the insurance companies to make the process smooth. I will continue to recommend them to clients!

IED R
Excellent to work with, from start to finish Vesel Construction were very transparent on the process of our home repair and coordinated everything , it was the easy button.
John G
Vesel did the back end of a water damage project after the initial remediation was done by another company. They did new framing, plumbing & electrical repair, sheetrock, finish trim, and painting. Scheduling was pretty much on target despite working around holiday breaks. All of the Vesel carpentry and finish crew were careful, respectful and did quality detailed work. Much appreciated!
Joel C
We (Buffalo Lumber Company) supplied material for Vesel Construction and they were very knowledgeable, efficient and a pleasure to work with. They had a firm plan and great communication between all parties to get the job done.

Very professional and accurate in their proposal. My personal experience has been very good with this company.

Their quality of work was exceptional. We had a fairly extensive full remodel of our downstairs and they were dependable, transparent, and held themselves and their subcontractors to the highest quality standards. When they began the project they informed us that when they left it would be perfect - and if for some reason it was not - they would make it perfect - and they worked to this standard of perfection throughout the three-month project... Not to mention that the original project estimate was $145,000 (big project) and they finished the project within $150 of this for the final cost!
Johnny J
Wife and I had a roof collapse and Vesel came out and not only put a new roof on, but went the extra mile in making sure nothing structurally happens like that in the future. The guys (Joel, Dan and Mike) were as professional as can be. My wife and I couldn’t be more happy with their work, cleanliness and attitudes.
Matt J
great service
Matthew T

If a homeowner is naïve about contractors for home improvement, remember Vesel can undertake jobs on homes over a 100 years old where no one knows what is behind those old walls. If a start date matters be sure to set one, invoices, including those for add-ons, came payable by EFT. As you can see, 5 stars.
Alan N
Vessel uses skilled craftsmen and completed the job professionally.
David L
Very collaborative on a large project and very concerned with quality. A lot of experience that is clear in dealing with them - very good communications and follow up.

We have used Vesel Construction for many projects in the past 30 years, including some smaller projects in the past 3 years. They do great work and are easy to work with.
