“Unforgettable experience!”
Getting a custom home sauna shouldn’t feel like going to a used car lot. You should feel like a loyal customer at Rolls-Royce.
When you call BW, you are a valued customer from start to finish. We ensure the entire process feels great, from the design meeting where inspiration hits, seeing an idea turn into personalized design plans, to the building process where each texture, finish and feature takes shape.
Our custom home saunas are built by genuine people striving to provide the highest quality customer experience possible. We are always ready to take your call, show you your sauna’s build progress, and ensure you feel like a million bucks through the entire process.
We start by gathering the vision, asking questions about how you sauna, and what the location looks like. This is also a time when you get to ask any questions too.
Here we come together with a few design variations and material options for you to choose from. We’ll discuss pricing, agreeing on a final design, and formalize a proposal package.
As our craftsmen get to work, we’ll stay fully connected throughout the build process, allowing you to check in and see things come together.
Once the build is completed, we’ll personally deliver it to your home and install it on site, ensuring everything works properly and is ready for your first session.
Ultimately we ask, “what brought you here?” What gets you moving in life, and how can custom home saunas resonate with your unique life.
Understanding the location is both a technical and design necessity to ensure the ascetic fits in well.
Maybe you want your custom outdoor sauna to seamlessly disappear into nature? Or maybe you are looking for an accent center piece to draw focus.
Being active in sports, hunting, kayaking, watercraft or just relaxing on a beach by a fire. Crafting a sauna that meets you where you are makes all the difference.
Our sauna’s are built for life, that means considering how many people might want to join you on your sauna journey.
We provide base designs to build off. If your vision goes further, we’ll design something unique, completely from scratch.















The heat source comes with many questions. What type of heat source is best? An authentic wood-burning stove? Maybe the convenience of an electric one? We'll help you make the best decision.
Think about how you want to use the sauna, how much room you have, and how many people you want to fit. Compact models are great for small spaces, while larger models are better for entertaining guests or family use.
