LEAD FINISH CARPENTER

Start your journey with us

The Sweeney legacy, built on the principles of trust, quality, tradition, began with company founder Herb Sweeney in 1954. Herb’s sons learned the construction trade first-hand by listening to their father and gradually acquired the skills and experience they needed to parlay Sweeney into Madison’s most trusted, premier design-build firm. In business for over 60 years, Sweeney has become a permanent fixture in the community. We invite you to explore Sweeney Design Remodel.
