Custom Home Construction in Scarborough, ME - IN PROGESS
Custom Built Primary Home & In-Law Apartment - Family Compound
When a realtor from Southern Maine contacted Eco-Pro Construction regarding her client's desire to build a new home, we eagerly embraced the opportunity to realize this homeowner's dream. The client required a primary residence and an apartment unit situated above an extra-tall, attached, two-car garage, for a total of 3,000 square feet of living space.
Preparing the Building Lot
With approvals secured, we began clearing the lot and laying out plans for the home location in mid-November. As the temperature dropped, we took additional measures to safeguard the quality of the foundation. The harsh winter conditions presented various challenges, but through meticulous planning and decades of experience, we successfully addressed potential issues and continued with the home construction throughout the winter months.
Framing
Eco-Pro Construction began framing the building on December 6th and continued with the installation of windows, doors, trusses, roofing, and exterior sheathing. The framing phase took about eight weeks to complete.
Insulation, Electrical and Plumbing
With the framing finalized, it was time for the electricians to wire both the primary home and the adjoining apartment. The apartment featured a built-in electric fireplace that required wiring for the fireplace insert. Following that, we proceeded to install insulation and the primary plumbing systems across both units.
Exterior Siding Installation
As the warmer temperatures of Spring arrived, we completed the installation of the exterior clapboard style and board and batten siding. We'll also show you the exterior heat pump systems. Take a look at our video walking tour of the exterior.
Interior Sheetrock, Trim & Doors
Next, we concentrated on finishing the interior by putting up Sheetrock and preparing it for painting. All the trim work around the doors and windows was completed, and the interior doors were installed prior to starting the painting.
