Complex custom homes — vaulted great rooms, long-span beams, complicated roofs — framed by crews who like the hard ones.
Looking for custom home framing in Appleton? Edge Enterprise LLC is a family-owned contractor with 25+ years in the trade and over 1,000 framed units in its portfolio. With roughly 75,644 residents, Appleton anchors a healthy Outagamie County construction market where the same GCs, lumberyards, and inspectors see every frame that goes up — and remember who built it well.
From our Long Prairie, MN headquarters, Appleton is about 7 hours away — close enough for our crews to mobilize quickly and staff the job for its full duration. Wisconsin work falls under the Wisconsin Commercial Building Code and the Uniform Dwelling Code (UDC) for residential — a code framework with its own quirks that we know well. Typical design values for the Appleton area — ground snow load around 35–40 psf, design wind speeds of 105–115 mph, and frost depths near 48–60 in. — are baked into how we detail and build here; final values are always confirmed with the local building official.
Hips, valleys, dormers, curved and vaulted ceilings — the roofs production framers turn down are the ones our crews enjoy.
Glulam, PSL, and steel carrying beams set right, with the temporary shoring and sequencing thought through before the crane shows up.
Custom homes come with custom details. We read the full set, flag conflicts early, and build what the architect drew — not an approximation of it.
Yes — Edge Enterprise frames architect-designed custom homes in Appleton and throughout Outagamie County, working with custom builders and directly with owners' GCs.
That's the work we like best. Vaulted ceilings, intersecting hips and valleys, dormers, and exposed structure are exactly where an experienced framing crew earns its keep.
For a typical custom home, 6–10 weeks of lead time lets us hold a crew slot for you. Earlier is better on lake homes and mountain builds where the season compresses everything.
Yes — we'd rather ask the engineer a question before the wall goes up than after. RFIs, shop-drawing review, and site visits with your design team are part of the service.
