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.

House Plans and Design in Sanford

Plans You Paid For and Could Not Build You have run into this before.

House plans and design Sanford ME Legacy Construction
You have been driving along Main Street in Sanford knowing what you want to build but not yet finding a team that designs and builds together. Plans drawn without a builder at the table came back priced outside your range and the process stalled before it started.

A designer gave you drawings that required multiple rounds of revision once a contractor got involved. Months passed, the scope changed twice, and you are still waiting for a final set of plans that can actually move to a permit submission.

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 paying for plans you cannot execute. Call (207) 544-4607 today.
