# Ryan Construction **Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 18 Jan Sebastian Dr, Sandwich, MA 02563 · **Phone:** (774) 238-2836 · **Website:** https://www.ryanconstructionllc.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=gbp-listing · **Languages:** English **Rating: 2.5/5** (low confidence) — from 3 reviews across 8 sources. ## The honest read Ryan Construction is a Sandwich shop Scott Ryan says he's run for more than 20 years, working the outer Cape — Mashpee, Cotuit, Osterville, Hyannisport, Falmouth, Bourne — on everything from kitchen and bath remodels to additions, decks, siding, roofing and full custom homes. The clearest split in its record is old versus new. Back in 2019, two reviewers called the crew timely and easy to deal with and said the price was fair — brief, generic notes rather than a detailed account of a specific job. What changed is a 2026 Angi review: a customer says Ryan Construction finished roughly 80% of a fiber-cement siding job, was paid for that portion, then stopped responding and never came back to complete it. It's the only recent account on file and, so far, the only detailed one either way. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #179545, traces cleanly to Ryan Construction LLC in the state registry — but it's expired. The website also cites a construction supervisor number, #81294, which hasn't been checked against the registry. A BuildZoom listing separately shows an active Rhode Island commercial-contractor license attached to this profile, but that one looks like it belongs to an unrelated company and shouldn't be read as Ryan Construction's credential. The BBB gives the company an A+ letter grade (it isn't accredited) and flags one unspecified account alert with no further detail given. On the credentials side, the company says it holds CertainTeed's SELECT ShingleMaster status — a manufacturer credential reserved for a small share of roofers — and is a certified cedar shake installer through the Cedar Shake and Shingle Bureau, both pointing to real roofing experience beyond the basics. Before booking, ask directly about project completion and payment milestones given the 2026 complaint, and confirm the HIC registration status yourself with the state rather than relying on a directory listing. With an established, certified roofing shop on one hand and a serious unresolved complaint plus a lapsed registration on the other, a phone call and a look at recent work matters more here than the sales pitch. **Strengths:** - A+ BBB grade — general contractor category, not accredited - CertainTeed ShingleMaster status — top-tier roofing manufacturer certification - Cedar Shake Bureau certified — qualifies for extended roofing warranties - Early reviews positive — 2019 customers cited timely, fair-priced work **Concerns:** - Recent siding complaint — 2026 review alleges job abandoned near completion - Expired HIC registration — Massachusetts registry shows it lapsed - Unspecified BBB alert — profile flags one alert with no detail **Where sources disagree:** - BuildZoom lists an active Rhode Island commercial-contractor license (#24530) on this profile that appears to belong to a different, unrelated business — the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (#179545) is the one that traces to Ryan Construction LLC, and the state registry shows that one expired. - Angi and HomeAdvisor publish byte-identical review content (same 3 reviews, same business description) for this contractor. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Sandwich-based residential remodeler founded by Scott Ryan, offering kitchen/bath remodeling, additions, siding, roofing, decks and custom homes _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://www.ryanconstructionllc.com) — “Ryan Construction, LLC is a Sandwich, MA-based residential remodeling and home-building contractor founded by Scott Ryan, offering kitchen/b…” - [Official Website](https://www.ryanconstructionllc.com) — “Company history (self-reported): Founded by Scott Ryan, who has built the company's reputation over more than 20 years on Cape Cod.” - [Official Website](https://www.ryanconstructionllc.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Founder and principal Scott Ryan” - Self-reported service area covers Mashpee, Cotuit, Osterville, Hyannisport, Falmouth and Bourne _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.ryanconstructionllc.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Mashpee, Cotuit, Osterville, Hyannisport, Falmouth, Bourne” - A 2026 Angi review alleges the contractor finished roughly 80% of a siding job, was paid for that portion, then stopped responding _(confidence: medium)_ - [Angi](https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ma/sandwich/scott-ryan-construction-llc-reviews-1.htm) — “3★ Walked away & ghosted me after finishing ~80% of my project after I paid for that portion of the job;
