“We have hired LakeHouse Design Build for several major projects at our lakeside cabin in Belgrade, Maine, and have been thrilled with the work done. Projects included a complete rebuild of portions of the main floor, including a new entrance porch, redesigned kitchen, bathroom, interior stairways, shelving, wiring updates, exterior patio, exterior stairways, and others. The work done was based on our wishes and requirements, but the design and details primarily reflected Mr. Bill Hudson's unique skills as a builder and designer. He was able to identify options that did not occur to us, and came up with designs that preserved the old camp character of the building while incorporating the modernization and comfort we sought. He was very skilled at managing modifications to cope with engineering and other challenges discovered in dealing with an 80+ year old cabin. Mr. Hudson's work reflects a remarkable attention to detail and quality. He is meticulous, careful, and will not accept poor quality work or materials. He does virtually all the work himself or with some assistance, and does not leave things to subcontractors in his absence. He communicated with us frequently and in detail, including regular photo project reports. He promptly involved us in any decisions, changes, or other planning information as the project progressed. His results have been wonderful for us - and are the source of constant favorable comments from neighbors, visitors, and others. We initially learned of his work from several neighbors whose projects reflected similar quality work from him. After researching area contractors before engaging this work, I had no doubt he was the best choice for our projects. We would hire him again for additional work without hesitation, and I have no reservations in recommending him to others.”

“Steve was a great partner to work with on our recent net zero Design/Build collaboration! Steve was able to take our detailed list of design requirements and create an incredibly functional home plan that ultimately satisfied all of our needs and desires. Highlights of our project included: - The final home plan was the product of a highly collaborative and iterative design process that relied upon 3D renderings and walkthroughs to test and review the plan at each stage of design. This allowed us to validate the plan and, where necessary, make adjustments before construction actually started. We can honestly say that there is nothing material we would change about the design. - Steve’s extensive background in modular and net zero construction ensured an extremely energy-efficient home (HERS score of 11) - Our building envelope presented some interesting positional challenges that Steve was able to solve elegantly and efficiently. - Steve not only accommodated our desire to do the interior finishing work (i.e., cabinetry, tiling, flooring, painting, etc.) ourselves, but in fact actively facilitated our ability to do so by adjusting his build plan to complete our workshop well before the rest of the house was completed. We love our new home and cannot recommend Steve highly enough! Juergen and Joan Renger Freeport, ME”

“We gutted & re-configured our kitchen and our contractor/builder of choice was Blue Spruce Joinery. Our overall experience was wonderful. Not only was the work of the highest quality but Tom Higbee's assistance with the design was extremely helpful. He was able to make our ideas a reality but at the same time point out what ideas wouldn't work. When that was the case, the alternatives he provided were in line with our vision of our dream kitchen. Tom and his crew were at our house when they committed to be, stayed within the budget we set, finished the project in a timely manner and left our new kitchen clean. My husband and I love to cook and after three years are still in love with the kitchen Blue Spruce Joinery created for us.”

“I hired K Construction to remodel a bathroom in my vacation rental property. I live out of state, so communication was mostly through e-mail. Due to no fault of their own there were scheduling delays which would have caused rental problems for me, but rather than allow that to happen, they somehow finished on time! The end project is beautiful and professional. Throughout the process, the project manager was quick to respond to questions and offered ideas when I got stuck on design and finish choices. They never left a mess, but always left behind an immaculate home. I would hire them again in an instant and highly recommend this company!! -Liz”

“Time and time again the Knickerbocker Group has impressed us with their amazing work ethic, passion, and overall drive to do the best possible jobs they can for the clients!”

“Someone in Maine bought my Torii Gate Plans and hired Eric to build it and what a great job he did! You can see the build sequence on his Torii page. https://www.houzz.com/projects/2794536/torii My roofed torii design can be tricky to build but what a beautiful result!”

“Aaron and Jennifer Newcomb were very easy to work with. We knew what we wanted and even picked out a plan. The plan was engineered for a different climate. Aaron "reworked" the plan and made it work for our new family home. We couldn't be happier with our home.”
