OUR HISTORY
Canaan was founded in 1978, as Canaan Decorating, by Raymond C. Suiter. The company quickly became involved in many specialty licensed disciplines of construction and, then began to operate as a custom home builder. We performed most of the facets of specialty construction “in house” as a custom luxury home builder. Canaan soon became identified as a premier contractor for luxury renovations of bathrooms, kitchens, additions, and for building high end custom luxury homes from the ground up. Since it’s very beginning, Canaan has always been dedicated to providing the very highest of possible quality and craftsmanship. This reputation stands today and Canaan Builders is known as a premier home builder in Honolulu and throughout the state of Hawaii. The core philosophy of the company has been to provide finely crafted and finished buildings and remodels, which reflect the company’s goal of luxury construction with unmatched quality and craftsmanship.
Canaan has never been a “top heavy” company, existing of a highly administrative personnel organization, but rather, we have been known historically as a team of craftsmen whose varied specialized skills and service, produce construction products that are far beyond the reach of our competitors. Careful attention to detail is a hallmark of Canaan, along with timely completion of the project at hand. Whether it is the construction of a custom luxury home or the timely completion of a high end retail establishment, Canaan rises far above its competitors. Canaan has performed countless luxury bathroom remodels, stunning kitchen renovations, and meticulously crafted boutiques and shops that have won many building and architectural awards. Canaan believe newly constructed homes should last a trouble free lifetime and should never be considered disposable or need to be replaced.
