Fenton Builders, Inc. is a small and growing contracting business in Ellsworth, Maine, located in the heart of the coastal, downeast region. Owned and operated by a father and son team, we employ two master carpenters. We build custom homes, decks, garages, and new structures, as well as performing renovations and vinyl siding. Our specialty is in the building of custom homes whether we stick build or use Insulated Concrete Forms ("ICF"). ICF is the latest in 'Green' construction. ICF buildings save their owners 50% or more over the cost of heating traditionally-insulated structures. We can also build your foundation walls from ICF. For further information on ICF, please visit NewFormBuilding.com and the ICF Association.


Quotes from a few of our happy customers:

"In 2005 Fenton Builders completed a major renovation of our cabin in Maine. The project actually was nearly a total reconstruction, involving an architect, county building regulation authorities and ourselves. Much of the planning, discussion and paper process was done by phone and email, with only a few on-site visits. In all cases, they were accessible, responsive and easy to interact with. They readily addressed our concerns, answered our questions and generally kept us up-to-date on the progress. Any problems or issues that we had were discussed and dealt with to our satisfaction."

— Rick, Maine


"I had Fenton Builders do a major renovation of the entire interior and key parts of the exterior of my cabin. They added a wing on to the house (it became a house instead of a cabin), which they designed and built themselves. There were many aesthetic and structural decisions to be made. These were often in direct conflict with each other. Bill and Dan proved themselves to be resourceful and inventive as well as practical and skilled when it came to solving all sizes of problems."

— Schellie, New York City


"Fenton Builders completed the remodeling of a primitive cabin into a three-bedroom house in Maine that exactly fit our desires while we watched from Virginia.

"Then there is the quality of the construction. In a word, excellent! We've had experience with a variety of construction, having made a large addition to a previous house and building our current house, so we've seen a variety of workmanship. Fenton Builders definitely excel in the quality of their work. It is properly done, innovative when necessary and perhaps most importantly pleasing to look at. The interior was vertical tongue and grove lumber. It was installed so that the vertical lines continued up the walls two stories and matched with the vertical pieces of the ceiling -- something we just wouldn't have thought to do. The lumber was finished with a semi-transparent white wash and the effect is quite stunning. They provided not only the construction but also the electrical and plumbing, done efficiently and correctly. We think the plumbing system is unique and in fact is so esthetically pleasing that it is the first thing we show visitors."

— Diane, Virginia
