Home Remodeling for Block Island (New Shoreham) Homes

Block Island, governed as the Town of New Shoreham, lies about 13 miles off the Rhode Island coast and is reached by ferry from Point Judith.

Block Island homes include Victorian-era hotels and cottages around Old Harbor, shingle-style summer houses and newer custom homes across open, windswept land. Island renovations need sturdy, low-maintenance materials that stand up to constant wind and salt.

Every material, fixture and crew member arrives by ferry, so projects require detailed planning, early ordering and realistic scheduling around the island season.
