Meet the Owner

Ryan Norman, Founder and Owner

Ryan Norman started Norman Builders in 2007, after working in technology, real estate and property management. He graduated from Sanborn Regional High School in 1998 and majored in computer science at Saint Anselm College before those three fields led him to construction.

He still lives in Newton: in his words, "my family and I reside just five houses down the street from the home I built, and my parents still live in the house where I grew up." Norman Builders works from 63 Peaslee Crossing in the same town.

Norman Builders is a home building and remodeling company in Newton, NH, founded in 2007 and owned by Ryan Norman. It builds custom homes and remodels kitchens, baths and whole houses across the Merrimack Valley, the North Shore, the Seacoast and southern New Hampshire.

Dale, Ryan's Father and a Master Carpenter

Ryan's father Dale was a union master carpenter for twenty-five years and now brings that experience to Norman Builders. Homeowners mention him by name: Doug and Nancy R. of Kingston, NH wrote after their kitchen remodel that "Ryan's father Dale is a master carpenter who paid the utmost attention to even the smallest detail," and George C. of Newburyport, MA said they ended up with exactly what their designer drew up, "with some recommendations from Dale on how to make things work even better."

Long-Time Trade Partners

Virginia T. of Andover, MA, whose 2014 renovation ran from late June to early November, wrote that Ryan's subcontractors were excellent: "Most have worked for him for many years." On bathrooms, Kristin Medwar of Andover named Dale and Lance, the tile setter: "Both are true craftsman!"

What We Build

In Ryan's words, Norman Builders has "completed over 100 custom projects in the past decade, covering a wide range of budgets from $10,000 to over $1,000,000," from a kitchen update to a 5,000-square-foot custom home. Our case studies include custom homes in Andover, Atkinson and Newton, additions, whole-home renovations, kitchens and primary baths, each with its town, year and budget band.

What Homeowners Say About the Process

Reviews on our testimonials page describe jobs that ran to plan. Virginia T. wrote that "Ryan kept the project on schedule and finished within the estimated time frame." James E. of Andover had a project slotted for eight weeks that finished in seven, with Dale doing the majority of the carpentry. Linda B. of North Andover, who had three bathrooms done, wrote that "Ryan did not exceed his labor estimate"; her total rose only with the upgrades she chose. And on a 120-year-old house in Newburyport, George C. wrote that once the walls were opened there were many obstacles, but "work never stopped from October 1st thru the end of the job six months later."

How We Work

Projects run as design-build: one team and one contract from the budget and design through construction, with a project coordinator during design and a project manager on the build, finished with walk-throughs and a punch list. John H. of Newmarket, NH described Ryan's bid for his remodel as "concise, detailed, and reasonable."
