For over 30 years, Arkins Construction has partnered with homeowners, architects, and interior designers to create thoughtfully crafted homes and spaces defined by timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and careful attention to detail. Our collaborative approach brings together technical expertise, high-quality construction, and a deep respect for both architecture and the surrounding landscape.

Inspired by the stone walls, salt marshes, harbors, and hay fields of the Rhode Island Farm Coast and greater New England region, our work reflects a balance of traditional craftsmanship and refined contemporary building practices. We combine sustainable construction methods, renewable materials, and evolving green building technologies to create healthy, enduring spaces designed to age beautifully over time.

At the core of our company is a skilled team of carpenters, millworkers, draftspersons, and project managers dedicated to carrying each project from concept through completion with precision and care. Our in-house millwork shop allows us to maintain a high level of craftsmanship and continuity throughout the building process, while close coordination with architects, engineers, interior designers, and local tradespeople ensures thoughtful execution at every stage.

Our full-service capabilities include general contracting, custom millwork, design support and consultation, site planning and preparation, high-end carpentry, project management, historical restoration, and sustainable construction. We also operate The Bow Rafter Company, fabricating standard and custom glulam bowed-timber rafters for residential and architectural projects throughout New England.

Whether restoring a historic property, crafting custom millwork, or building a new home, our goal is to create spaces that feel authentic, enduring, and deeply connected to the people who live in them.
