Summer in the Greater Bangor area is a fleeting, beautiful season. As the snow finally clears and the Penobscot County landscape turns green, we all share the same goal: making the most of every sunny day.
“Summer is right around the corner. Make it one to remember by enjoying every inch of your home, inside and out.”\
But if you’re dreading your cramped kitchen during graduation parties, or you’re worried about that soft spot on your deck, you aren’t enjoying “every inch” of your home. At Springwood Builders, we specialize in helping Maine homeowners reclaim their space before the summer rush begins.
The Outside: Custom Decks & Exterior Structural Care
In Winterport, Hampden, and Bangor, our homes take a beating from the winter elements. Before you fire up the grill, it’s vital to ensure your outdoor living space is both beautiful and safe.
Custom Deck Building: We don’t just “build decks”; we design outdoor retreats tailored to the Maine lifestyle.
Wood Rot Repair: Many Bangor homes suffer from hidden wood rot after a long winter. We specialize in structural repairs, from sill plates to siding, ensuring your home is protected for decades, not just seasons.
The Inside: Kitchen & Bath Remodels for Summer Hosting
If your indoor “flow” feels more like a bottleneck when guests arrive, a strategic remodel can change everything.
Kitchen Remodeling: Open up your floor plan to connect your indoor kitchen with your outdoor dining area.
Bathroom Retreats: Transform a dated guest bath into a spa-like retreat for your summer visitors.
Why Choose a Local Winterport General Contractor?
Working with a team that understands Penobscot County building codes and the specific challenges of our climate is the difference between a “quick fix” and a “permanent improvement.” From Hermon to Brewer, we pride ourselves on a 9-step project process that keeps your renovation on schedule and on budget.
