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.

OUR SERVICES

House Plans and Design in Old Orchard Beach

Coastal Plans That Missed the Realities You know the coast does not forgive shortcuts.

House plans and design Old Orchard Beach ME Legacy Construction
You have a property near East Grand Avenue and you know what a well-built coastal home looks like. The plans you explored earlier were drawn without accounting for the flood zone or the setback requirements that any coastal permitting office will flag. Another season passed without a permit application.

A designer drew plans that looked right until a contractor reviewed them and found coastal compliance issues that required a full revision round. Months were lost and the build date slipped further than you expected when you started.

Every month without finished plans costs you:
  • We show up when we say we will, every single time

  • We build exactly what we planned and agreed on


  • A building permit clock that has not even started yet
  • Months of delays once construction starts due to incomplete drawings


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

Stop chasing coastal plans that miss the mark. Call (207) 544-4607.

Your Coastal Design Gets Built to Last

We design around your Old Orchard Beach site, the coastal constraints, and the build we will execute. Plans drawn by the team that builds them go to permit ready and stay on budget.
