Our Story

2006

Humble Beginnings

Ross Construction began in 2006 when Robert Ross started taking on remodeling projects in the Wausau area. At first, the focus was small with kitchen updates, bathroom remodels, and hands-on work that built both skill and reputation. Those early years were defined by long hours, learning the trade, and treating every client’s home with the same care as our own. Word-of-mouth referrals grew quickly, and a reputation for honesty and craftsmanship became the foundation of everything to come.

2009

The First Next Generation Joins

In 2009, Andrew Ross joined the company between high school and college, contributing in the field before pursuing a career in public accounting. Even after leaving in 2015, Andrew continued advising the business on tax and financial matters. In 2024, he returned as a co-owner and CFO, bringing valuable financial balance to the leadership team.

2011

Building a Future in the Field

Matt Ross began full-time in 2011 after years of part-time and summer work. Starting with simple tasks, he steadily took on more responsibility — from leading crews to managing projects — and developed a strong ability to guide clients through complex remodels. His growth in leadership, estimating, and client relations laid the groundwork for his future role as CEO.

2015

Operations Leadership Emerges

After years of helping part-time and during summers, Peter Ross joined full-time in 2015. Like his brothers, he worked his way through every role in the field. His eye for detail and deep trade knowledge made him a natural fit for operations, and today he serves as COO, leading the team in daily project execution and ensuring Ross Construction’s high standards are met on every job.

2020

Becoming a Design-Build Firm

By 2020, Ross Construction had grown from a remodeling company into a full design-build firm. With the adoption of 3D design software, clients could now visualize their projects before construction began. This shift made remodeling less intimidating and gave families the confidence to make decisions knowing exactly how their finished space would look.

2024

A New Chapter of Family Leadership

In 2024, Robert Ross passed ownership to his three sons, completing the transition to the next generation. With Matt as CEO, Andrew as CFO, and Peter as COO, Ross Construction entered a new era of family leadership — one that balances design expertise, financial insight, and operational excellence. Robert remains active in the business, continuing to lend his experience as the team looks ahead to the future.

Our Design-Build Process

1 | Start the Conversation
Every project begins with a simple call or in-home visit to understand your goals, walk through the space, and discuss early ideas. We listen closely to what you want to achieve and provide clear guidance on what is possible. At the end of this step, you will have a solid understanding of your project direction and the next steps.
2 | Design and Plan With Confidence
Once we agree on the scope and preliminary investment range, our team guides you through design decisions and selections. We work alongside trusted designers and architects to ensure your plans match your priorities and stay aligned with your budget. By the end of this phase, your vision is refined, your material choices are made, and your project is set up for a smooth start.
3 | Build and Enjoy the Transformation
During construction, our in-house craftsmen bring your design to life with consistent communication and attention to detail. We manage scheduling, trades, and quality so you always know what is happening and why. When the work is complete, your updated space is clean, polished, and ready for you to enjoy for years to come.

We recently hired Ross construction to renovate our kitchen, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work! From start to finish, they were incredibly professional and kept me informed every step of the way. They showed up on time every day and worked diligently to ensure the project stayed on schedule.
