Company Profile: 

As builders in the high-end home market, Wellen Construction’s workmanship is first class, but owners Rob Wellen and Charlie Gadbois also like to emphasize that building a home is an experience: “We’re not only selling a product, we’re also selling a process.” With over fifty years of combined construction experience, Wellen and Gadbois know that to avoid frustrations they must offer their clients exceptional service through their process; updating and preparing the homeowners at each phase of the project so that they know what to expect.

Wellen Construction built a custom home for Lycos founder Bob Davis, who says, “Charlie was an exceptional partner in a complex project. He was focused at all times on ensuring our satisfaction. Charlie and Wellen Construction have proven themselves to be of the highest integrity; when they said something would be done, it was.”
