Beulah Contractor

Beulah sits at the east end of Crystal Lake, and most of its housing stock reflects its history as a summer destination. Cottages built for short-season use are common — tight insulation, minimal mechanical systems, crawl spaces that were never meant to see January. A growing number of owners are converting these properties into full-time residences, which means serious structural and systems work: better foundations, new roofing, insulated walls, proper windows and doors that hold up to year-round weather.

Gerhard & Sons works directly with Beulah homeowners on the construction side of those conversions and on standalone projects — roofing, siding, decks, framing additions, and finish carpentry. We understand what it takes to bring a seasonal cottage up to year-round standards without gutting everything that makes the property worth keeping. The small downtown and lakefront setting come with specific setback and access realities, and we've worked within those constraints here before.
