Exploring the U.S. Virgin Islands

The interesting sea life and beautiful beaches were not the only highlights of our recent visit to the United States Virgin Islands.
The immense use of rock and brick to build walls, paths, homes,and out-buildings  centuries ago showed true craftsmanship as most are still standing  and in use today.

Sprat Hill Plantation, built in 1650, on the island of St. Croix is a perfect example.
Our tour of the property showed us the construction used was of concrete blocks and rock. Built to last, this home is still in use today as a private residence.

Our  business philosophy on how we construct each project  is the same as the early settlers of these islands had in mind. We focus on the longevity of everything we build by good craftsmanship and using quality materials.
