Over twenty years and more than 100 homes, Design Build Associates of Maine has become what I envisioned - a company that takes a customer’s dream and works to make it reality, feeding my passion for architecture and design while leveraging my knowledge of construction. Every custom home we build starts with a customer’s ideas and desires for their dream home and through the design and building process ends with a home that is what they envisioned or even more, within budget and on time. See our testimonials from customers attesting to their positive experience building a new home with Design Build Associates of Maine and come share your ideas for your dream home or let us create one with you.

Designing Your Custom Home

We take special care with the design process working with you to iterate the design to ensure that it incorporates your vision and benefits from our design eye and experience. 

Bring your own plans that we can refine together or we can develop entirely new plans with you.

Maybe you have land selected already or we work with you to select the perfect location to site your home.

We have experience with a broad range of architectural styles and construction types.

Building Your Custom Home

Much like the design process, the build process benefits from teamwork and regular communication with you and the team to manage expectations, budget and timeline.

Once land is secured, the design and build process typically occurs over six months.

We have several financing options available.

You will work with many highly qualified vendors for interior and exterior finishes including kitchen and bath design and hardwood and tile selections.

We guide you through the process so that you know what to expect in each phase.
