Floor wraps in Milwaukee and southeast Wisconsin

Our crew installs custom floor wraps in Milwaukee, Kenosha, Racine and the Lake Geneva area, and southeast Wisconsin is priced the same as our Illinois installs. For events elsewhere in the state, we can print and ship the wrap for you to install, or quote an install with travel.

Events in southeast Wisconsin

In Milwaukee, a lot of event space is in older brick buildings. The Historic Third Ward, a downtown neighborhood, is a former warehouse district largely rebuilt after an 1892 fire, and today it’s full of galleries, restaurants, theaters and creative businesses. Converted warehouse rooms often have old hardwood or concrete floors. Those take a wrap well when they’re smooth, but cracks, gaps and raised boards will show through, so send us a photo before you order.

Lake Geneva is its own market. The city sits on Geneva Lake, about 75 miles northwest of Chicago and 40 miles southwest of Milwaukee, and it has been a resort town since wealthy Chicago families built summer estates there after the 1871 fire. Tourism is a large part of Walworth County’s economy, so summer weekends fill up with resort weddings, lakeside receptions and family reunions. If your date is in peak season, start the design early. Dance floor wrap ideas are a good place to begin.

Kenosha and Racine have a mix of banquet halls, hotels, restaurants and parks along Lake Michigan. For a quinceañera, sweet sixteen or anniversary party in one of those rooms, a name, monogram or date on the dance floor is a simple design that fits.

Wisconsin winters are long, so much of the indoor party season falls between November and March. Floors near the door get wet fast in those months; we need the install area clean and dry, and a runner at the entrance helps during the event. In summer, an outdoor dance floor needs a tent and a hard subfloor. The wrap can’t go directly on grass or on an open wood deck that takes rain.

Homes and businesses in southeast Wisconsin

Milwaukee’s older neighborhoods have a house type you rarely see elsewhere: the Polish flat, a cottage that was jacked up so a partly sunken lower unit could be built underneath. Those lower units, along with basements in duplexes and other older homes, can be good spots for a wrap if the floor is smooth and dry. Below-grade spaces in older buildings can run damp, so check before you order. Details are on the home floor wraps page.

Commercial work in this region often means logistics. The I-94 corridor through Kenosha County is lined with large fulfillment and distribution centers, and Pleasant Prairie’s LakeView Corporate Park covers about 2,400 acres. Mount Pleasant in Racine County has its own business parks along I-94. Aisle markers, safety zones and directional arrows for buildings like these are custom quoted; see commercial floor graphics.

Pricing

Southeast Wisconsin installs use the same price list as Chicagoland: $11 per square foot printed and installed, with a $750 minimum. If we print it and you install it, the rate drops to $8 per square foot. Extras are optional: we can remove the wrap after the event for $350, design artwork from scratch for $150 flat, or rush the order in under 48 hours for 25% more. A 16×16 ft floor runs $2,816 installed, and $3,166 if we also take it up afterward. For homes and commercial spaces, we price each job after seeing the space. See our pricing page.

Southeast Wisconsin questions

Do you charge extra to come to Wisconsin?

Not within our core area. Kenosha, Racine, Milwaukee and the Lake Geneva area are standard install pricing. Installs farther away, such as Madison or Green Bay, are quoted with travel.

Can you install the morning of a summer wedding at the lake?

Often, yes, if the venue gives us access. Resort venues frequently turn rooms over between events, so ask the coordinator what time vendors can start, and we’ll plan our arrival around it.

Can I order a shipped wrap for an event elsewhere in Wisconsin?

Yes. Printed and shipped is $8 per square foot, and you or your venue handles the install. Tell us the floor size and the event date so we can schedule printing and shipping.

Our venue has an old, worn wood floor. Will a wrap work?

It depends on how worn it is. Gaps between boards, raised nail heads and cupped planks show through. Send photos taken at a low angle and we’ll tell you whether to wrap the floor directly or wrap a rented dance floor on top of it.
