New Berlin is a spread-out west-side Milwaukee suburb — population 39,000, median home value $340k. Mostly 1970s-2000s ranches, bi-levels, and subdivision homes on larger lots than typical inner-ring suburbs. Bathroom remodeling work here ranges from 1980s ranch modernizations to newer subdivision primary suite upgrades.
We’ve completed projects across New Berlin from homes near Moorland Road to the streets around National Avenue to the newer subdivisions east of Sunnyslope Road. New Berlin work skews mid-range to mid-premium given the larger home sizes and home values.
