MAGUIRE CONSTRUCTION INC
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 5, 2016
“Maguire remodeled our 1900 home in Cape Elizabeth and rebuilt our lakeside cabin in Bridgton. Their teams were professional, the work was impeccable, and everything was completed on time and within the estimated budgets. The detail work they did on some of the railings and trim was ingenious. As icing on the cake, the neighbors had only positive things to say about their interactions with Maguire's team.”
Steve's Custom Homes, Inc.
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 3, 2021
“Steve was a great partner to work with on our recent net zero Design/Build collaboration! Steve was able to take our detailed list of design requirements and create an incredibly functional home plan that ultimately satisfied all of our needs and desires. Highlights of our project included: - The final home plan was the product of a highly collaborative and iterative design process that relied upon 3D renderings and walkthroughs to test and review the plan at each stage of design. This allowed us to validate the plan and, where necessary, make adjustments before construction actually started. We can honestly say that there is nothing material we would change about the design. - Steve’s extensive background in modular and net zero construction ensured an extremely energy-efficient home (HERS score of 11) - Our building envelope presented some interesting positional challenges that Steve was able to solve elegantly and efficiently. - Steve not only accommodated our desire to do the interior finishing work (i.e., cabinetry, tiling, flooring, painting, etc.) ourselves, but in fact actively facilitated our ability to do so by adjusting his build plan to complete our workshop well before the rest of the house was completed. We love our new home and cannot recommend Steve highly enough! Juergen and Joan Renger Freeport, ME”

He managed the projects from start to finish - plumbers, electricians, cabinet work, tiling, enclosures, etc.. I am very satisfied with the quality of work and standard of care and now think of Joe as our go-to-guy for any carpentry and home projects.”

Richard Moody & Sons Construction LLC
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 4, 2016
“We started our working relationship with Moody Construction in 2014 on a new beach-front home in Wells, Maine. We provided the architectural services and Jason Moody and team the construction. Jason was our point of contact for the project and led the construction team until completion of the project in 2015. Born and raised into the construction industry, Jason has a deep understanding of construction in the harsh seacoast environment and the associated approvals processes, and of working closely with the homeowner and the architect to bring the design vision to life. As the architect for the project, we appreciated the care taken in the construction details, and the professionalism of the Moody team. We are happy to refer them to our residential clients and look forward to working with them again.”
Great Northern Builders, Inc.
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2016
“We had Great Northern Builders completely finish our large basement, and Len Bogh did a great job. I never thought we could transform that basement into such a comfortable living space. My husband, who recently retired, is now putting his home office down there and he loves the space. It is also great when we have all the family staying here over Christmas. We can sleep 4 or 5 people down there.”
Peter B. Rice & Co
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 13, 2013
“Materials and workmanship were excellent. Fit and finish looked great. Peter Rice and crew listened very well and undertook modifications to the plans as we wished or as conditions such as terrain or prevailing winds or sun direction required. After 10 percent of the way through the construction project, I had complete confidence in Peter Rice to the point i didn't need to visit the site too frequently.”
Oceanside Builders, LLC.
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Portland Maine
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 5, 2013
“Among other projects Eric Smith, owner of Oceanside Builders, has done for us over the past twenty-some years, is a dock built for our house in Maine. The existing dock when we bought the house was worn beyond repair and poorly installed. Eric and his crew built us a sturdy new ramp and float dock, over 100' long, out into the tidal cove in front of our house. The trickiest part was building the stairs down the embankment; the old ones had just been laid down on the clay. The new ones are pinned and tied into the bank and are not going anywhere! The quality of work done by this company is of the highest standard. You will find cheaper companies in the area but I am a firm believer in you get what you pay for. The work they do is done right the first time, the team works well together and with us, They have creative and innovative ideas to make the project better. They rarely get upset by unexpected "challenges" and will work with the client to obtain the desired result. A critical attribute Eric has is knowing the codes of the surrounding towns and the ability to work with the town and government officials in obtaining permits. And if they can't make it as scheduled, they will CALL you to let you know!”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: home design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service Portland Maine design-and-build company to complete your entire project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build pros in Portland Maine, ME for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?


Design-build firms take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined design-build process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, Portland Maine design-build services are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which often speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or other design-build architect to help create the exact look you want.

Before deciding on a residential design-and-build company in Portland Maine, ME, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for Portland Maine design-build architects that specialize in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which home design-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective Portland Maine design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the house design-build construction business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
  • Are your employees licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can this job get done?
  • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
