No tricks, just treats! 🎃 We had such a great time at last Saturday’s event in the Village of Elm Grove. Rebecca, our design consultant, was there handing out candy and coloring pages to some of the local kiddos!

A big thank you to the Elm Grove Business Association for bringing our community together for such a fun event. We loved being part of it! 🍬

This Brookfield lower level was transformed into a place to play, lounge, exercise, entertain and unwind. What started with water damage became a chance to rethink the entire basement.

Custom game room shelving, a built-in bar with quartz countertops, botanical bathroom wallpaper and a serene sage h**p wallpaper in the meditation room give each space its own look. With room for family game nights, workouts and time together, this basement brings a whole new purpose to the home.

This wallpaper is a showstopper 😍 We can’t wait to share more of our recently completed Brookfield basement remodel with you!

After a fire damaged the second floor, the homeowners wanted to bring their home back to life without losing the charm that made it special.

The second floor was reimagined with two spacious bedrooms, a large hallway walk-in closet, and an updated bathroom.

On the main floor, the fireplace was made functional again. A Heat & Glo Fireplaces SlimLine 7 is framed by a custom stained oak mantel, Serpentine Flemish Bond Blend tile, and a 12x24 Aero Cream honed limestone hearth.

The home is now restored with its original character in mind, and a new sense of function for the years ahead.

Part 2 of our Franklin 2-story home addition!

The second floor is starting to come together, and we’re getting a better look at some of the details that will make this addition feel right at home. Two new bathrooms with Seville Cabinetry, a guest suite, and even a hidden reading nook are all coming together, adding more room and flexibility for the family to enjoy.

There’s still more to come, but we can’t wait to see this one finished and welcome these homeowners home!

From an underutilized porch to an inviting sunroom with classic Cape Cod charm, this Bay View home got the refresh it deserved.

A beautiful new look to the front of the home, a ceiling painted in Sherwin-Williams Bluebell reminiscent of a sunny summer sky, and Therma-Tru Doors double doors in Indigo create a warm welcome from the moment you arrive.

There’s a lot taking shape here, from a brand new laundry room with beautiful Seville Cabinetry to a four-stop elevator connecting all levels of the home. The addition was designed to feel completely connected to the existing structure while adding space and functionality that will serve the family for years to come.

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll head upstairs and take a look at the second floor!

As cozy season approaches, we’re taking another look at this fireplace transformation🔥

For this Tosa home, we uncovered and restored the original hearth, added a custom oak mantel crafted on-site to complement the existing hardwood floors, and installed a new Heat & Glow Cerona fireplace with an arched top that works beautifully with the home’s architecture. It’s a great example of how the right design can bring new life to the character you already have.

From whole-home remodels and kitchens to bathrooms, lower levels and additions, we’re proud to bring our design-build approach to homes throughout the Greater Milwaukee area.

What began in 1951 has continued to grow under the leadership of Gary & Nick Sannes and our award-winning team of designers, project managers, carpenters and office staff who work together to bring our homeowners’ ideas to life.

At the heart of it all is The S.J. Janis Way. We have a can-do attitude, look for solutions when challenges arise and treat every home like our own. We act with honesty and integrity, giving straightforward advice and always looking out for our homeowners’ best interests. Most importantly, we want to be a client for life, a trusted resource homeowners can continue to call long after their remodel is complete.

Our 2026 company photo has arrived, beautifully captured by Linda Smallpage Linda Smallpage and photographed in our Elm Grove Design Center. There are some familiar faces in this photo and some new ones, too. We’re proud of the team we have today and grateful to the homeowners, partners and community who have been part of our story over the past 75 years.
