Decades of craftsmanship, commitment, and community in the heart of Lewes.
First and foremost: Established
Nearly 30 years ago, in Historic Lewes and Lewes Beach, Darrell’s parents—both realtors—recognized a growing need for dependable contractors in the area. His father once told him, “If you show up, do the work, and leave the place as clean as you found it, you’ll have more work than you know what to do with.” Well, he was right.
Next: Detailed
Before Southern Delaware became a mecca for visitors and new homeowners, Lewis Built was founded with an unwavering eye for detail—treating every minute of a project as just as important as the next. Darrell believes it’s essential to take the time to understand what clients envision, and then deliver on that vision—exactly, and with integrity.
Most importantly: Trusted
With three decades of dedication to his clients comes trust. The number of top realtors, brokers, and agents at the beach who rely on Lewis Built is a testament to the many homeowners who turn to Darrell to transform the interiors and exteriors of their homes.
Since the establishment of Lewis Built through today, Darrell has forged many relationships with vendors, town officials, architects, engineers, and members of our community.
All of these strong, local ties are an imperative part of the success of Lewis Built and of Darrell’s vision to accomplish great things and to continue to build upon a name, a name that speaks for itself: Lewis Built.
