As Lead Carpenter, Ryan is responsible for guiding Sweenor Builders’ framing crew. Rarely in the limelight, framing is essential to our work. There’s no overstating the significance of properly designed and constructed building framing — especially in coastal areas where wind and flood loads can be severe. You might say that everything we do rests quite literally on the quality of Ryan’s work.

After seven years of training with some of the most experienced master craftsman and framers in the industry, Mr. Sweenor is highly proficient at his craft and indispensable in the field. He brings intensity and focus to his role, a passion for bringing homes out of the ground, and an unrivaled determination to get things done right. A team player, Mr. Sweenor takes it in stride that his work is one of the best indicators of our quality craftsmanship, even if it’s the quality you can’t see.

Before building, baseball was Ryan’s first love. He played competitively into his college years — until one fateful summer when Ryan elected to work with his Dad instead of traveling to the summer league. After immersing himself on the job, Ryan refocused his studies to construction management and joined our team full time.
