Request an EstimateLittle Compton is one of the most distinctive towns in Rhode Island. Undeveloped coastline, stone walls, historic farmsteads, and some of the most beautiful properties in New England. Homes here are a blend of the historic and the modern, and the people who own them tend to care deeply about quality.
Toensing Construction takes the same approach. We specialize in remodeling work that respects the character of a home while bringing it up to modern standards of comfort and function. From a new outdoor shower tiled to match your coastal surroundings, to a kitchen renovation that opens up your farmhouse floor plan, to custom built-ins that put every inch of space to use, we design and build projects that last.
We are based in Warren, an easy drive through Tiverton. We know the area, we know the type of homes out here, and we bring the same hands-on dedication to every Little Compton project we take on.
Little Compton is one of Rhode Island's most rural and best-preserved coastal towns, known for its historic village around the Commons, the hamlet of Adamsville, working farms, stone walls, and shingled homes along the Sakonnet shoreline. Many homes here are older farmhouses and classic New England capes and colonials where preserving character matters. We specialize in the careful, detail-driven work these homes call for, from restoration to thoughtful additions.
The town's strong rural and coastal character means waterfront projects can involve CRMC review and setbacks, and most properties rely on private wells and septic systems that shape what additions are feasible. We plan for those realities from the start and coordinate with the Little Compton building department to keep everything on track.
Opening up a Little Compton farmhouse floor plan sounds simple until you find out what the wall is doing. In the older houses around the Commons and Adamsville, interior walls often carry more than their thickness suggests, and the kitchen is frequently in an ell that was added to the original house with its own framing and its own floor level. We survey what is actually there and price the structural work honestly rather than discovering it after demolition. Most properties out here run on well and septic, which factors into which appliances and fixtures the system can comfortably carry. See our kitchen remodeling in Rhode Island page for scopes, published price ranges, and the full process.

Yes. The Wilbor House on West Main Road was begun in 1690 as a stone-ender and expanded in Georgian style around 1740. It was a working farm for 265 years before the Little Compton Historical Society acquired it in 1955, and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. Little Compton has more old farmhouses like it than almost any town we serve, and we're comfortable working on them.
