Our process

A clear path to your Minneapolis sauna.

Building a residential or commercial sauna should feel exciting, not overwhelming. We keep the process personal, practical, and easy to follow from first idea to first fire.

01

Consultation

We start with a conversation about your space, your people, and your ideal sauna ritual. We look at access, ground conditions, power, ventilation, and the small details that shape a good build.

  • A clear brief and early budget range
  • Site photos or a visit where needed
  • A recommendation that fits your property
02

Design & Build

Once the direction is right, we make the decisions tangible: footprint, timber, bench height, glazing, heater, lighting, and the finish that will make it feel like yours.

  • A considered layout and material plan
  • Cedar or thermowood selected for the setting
  • Regular updates while your sauna takes shape
03

Installation

We coordinate delivery, prepare the site, and install with care. Before we leave, we test the essentials and show you how to use and look after your sauna.

  • Prepared delivery and installation day
  • Heater, ventilation, and safety checks
  • A simple care and first-use walkthrough

Materials with a reason

Beautiful now. Better with time.

We choose timber for how it performs as much as how it looks. Every species has a role to play in a space built for heat, moisture, and years of use.

01 · Cedar

Warm, aromatic, familiar.

Western red cedar is light, stable, naturally resistant to moisture, and brings that unmistakable sauna scent to every session.

02 · Thermowood

Refined, resilient, calm.

Thermally modified timber has a rich, even tone and strong dimensional stability—an excellent choice for crisp indoor and outdoor lines.

Good to know

Questions we hear often.

How long does a project take?+

Most projects move from first conversation to installation in roughly 8–12 weeks, depending on the design, materials, access, and site preparation. We will give you a realistic timeline before you commit.

Do you work with businesses?+

Yes. We build for retreats, gyms, hotels, studios, and other spaces where durability and guest experience matter just as much as the sauna itself.

Can I choose the heater and layout?+

Absolutely. We will guide you through heater type, bench levels, glazing, lighting, and ventilation so the finished room suits how you plan to use it.

What needs to be ready before installation?+

We will explain the access, base, electrical, drainage, and ventilation requirements for your project early, so there are no surprises at delivery.
