Horan Building Company
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Block Island.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 August 2016
“Mark Horan and Horan Building have built two homes for us over the past 10 years. We are a repeat customer for many reasons. It all starts with Mark and his extremely talented team. When getting to know Mark, there is a sincerity and confidence that he is going to build you an unforgettable home. And he did, twice! Building the kind of home Mark does, takes a lot of craftsmen. From the design team to the finish work, these folks are extraordinary. You’ll know what I mean when you see the finished product. Amazing! The people who work for Mark really care about building the best. They are there for you during the process and after as well. The homes are not only beautiful, they are solid too. Time is a great test to owning a home in a beach community. When you visit one of Mark’s projects, new or rich with family memories, you’ll know why we love our home and why there is nobody like Mark and his team! Thank you Mark and Horan Building Company! Sincerely, Hank and Laurie Holbrook”

Erik's Design Build Associates Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Block Island.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 August 2013
“Great company to work with! They built our new 2400 sf home and barn last year. They can design your home and build it to your specifications. Darren does the designing and has a very patient, calm and professional demeanor. He can notice things in your plans that you may not and will discuss possible options for a better layout. Erik has been building homes for years and knows the best subcontractors to get the job done right. Everyone was there when they were supposed to be, any possible cost issues were discussed upfront, materials were high quality. He has a great crew, they were all professional, clean and reliable. They also specialize in energy efficient building, we added a geo-thermal system that is great! They are a certified "aging in place" builder, meaning they can build your home to assist you in your retirement years, wider doorways, easier door handles, no thresholds, however far you want to go with it. We were able to move into our home earlier than the original estimate and the costs were on target. We would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone.”
Ryan Sweenor
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Block Island.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2015
“It is with pleasure that I write this recommendation for Sweenor Builders Inc who was the general contractor for our custom designed home built in 2008 in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. My husband and I had previously built four homes so we were very familiar with the process, pitfalls and possible outcomes. Prior to construction, we interviewed several builders, reviewed their work and discussed with Jeff his perspective of the homeowner’s home building experience using his company. Mr. Sweenor has a stellar reputation with his Rhode Island customers and, also, with his sub contractors. He was by far the most impressive for his home building knowledge regarding materials, energy savings and overall quality of work, as well as his communications skills with his clients. The house we designed was approximately 4,900 square feet and our building cost to Sweenor Construction was approximately $1,000,000.00; costs not included were land, landscaping or appliances. The property where we built our new home is on the Rhode Island coast and in a neighborhood with numerous covenants and building restrictions. The house is a unique design with seven gables and adjoining roofs that presented building challenges; all of which Jeff and his team were well equipped to handle. Every nail, material, restriction was thoroughly discussed with Jeff prior to construction and every contractual spec was met. A detailed contract was executed, but frankly, never looked at since Jeff, as the contractor, met all specifications within our anticipated timeframe for completion; his sole goal was to build a quality home. I would say, of the contractors we used to build our five homes, Jeff was the easiest to work with and delivered the best quality product.”
J THOMAS CONSTRUCTION LLC

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2019
“We can't say enough good things about our experience with J Thomas Construction. John and his team were very involved in every step of the process. They always checked in to make sure we were satisfied with the project. It was refreshing to work with a company that cared so much about their costumers. We highly recommend J. Thomas Construction for any of your construction needs.”
