Wooden sailing ships have to withstand the enormous stresses imposed by the vagaries of wind and weather, yet they do so with grace, beauty and longevity.
These are the characteristics we build into our homes.

Holmes Hole Builders is terrific. They maintain a clean and organized building site, delivered our small but complicated home on time and on budget. They stand behind their work after the fact as well.

We engaged HH to undertake a very challenging project in Martha’s Vineyard. HH delivered in an amazing way. Not only did they help advise on design where appropriate, but they were able to meet the unforgiving standards.
