We spoke with several contractors before choosing Legacy Construction and are glad we did. Their communication was excellent, and they handled every detail of our project with care. They take pride in their work, and it shows in the final product.

It’s hard to find a trustworthy contractor these days, let alone one that cares about the all the details that can easily get lost in the grand scheme of the project. Legacy Construction threaded that needle, and many others, expertly. Looking forward to the next time we can work together.

General Contracting in Standish

Your Build Keeps Stalling Out You have waited long enough.

General contractor Standish ME Legacy Construction
You bought property near Sebago Lake Shore for the setting and the lifestyle. The custom build you planned is still just a set of drawings. The addition your family needs before next summer has not started yet.

You reached out to a builder who walked the lot and then disappeared. Another one gave a rough number over the phone with no follow-through or written estimate.

Every season you wait is costing you more:
  • We show up when we say we will, every single time

  • We build exactly what we planned and agreed on


  • Your lakefront property sits underbuilt while costs keep rising
  • You spend another season working around what does not work for you


  • The project you want next year will cost more than it does today

Stop watching seasons pass. Call (207) 544-4607 for a free estimate today.

  • Sebago Lake Shore Construction in Standish, ME

    Standish's Sebago Lake Shore and the Standish Corner area off Route 35 define a town of lakefront properties and lake-area homes, where construction near the water falls under shoreland zoning that governs setbacks, placement, and how much impervious surface a lot can carry. Lakefront construction here is shaped by those rules before the design even begins, and a contractor who does not confirm them first costs the owner time and money. Legacy Construction provides general contracting across Standish, including lakefront properties near Sebago Lake Shore, confirming the shoreland zoning, managing the permits, and coordinating every trade so the project is handled correctly within the local rules. We design to the setbacks and coverage limits of your specific lake lot.
