New Home Construction in Oxford, ME
Starting the Project: 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.
Foundation is Dug for Concrete Pouring
The foundation has been dug, and we're getting ready to pour the footers today. We install drainage pipes, stone, and a 10-mil vapor barrier below the concrete floor to manage subsurface water. Tomorrow, we'll pour the foundation walls.

Exterior Framing & Sitework
- Exterior Framing: The exterior framing is now complete, and we're gearing up to place the trusses using a crane tomorrow.
- Electrical: The power is being installed on a pole.
- Septic:
The excavator is hard at work on the septic systems before the upcoming snowfall.
It's been a solid project so far, and we truly appreciate the crew's dedication and hard work, especially in these freezing temperatures.
Roof Trusses
Work on-site is advancing steadily, despite challenging winter conditions. Our team continues to push forward, maintaining a strong pace on all fronts.
- Site Work: The excavation crew is actively moving loam onto the site to cover the septic system.
- Structural Progress: A major milestone was reached this morning as the roof trusses were successfully lifted and set into place by crane.
Despite the very cold temperatures, the crew remains dedicated to keeping the schedule on track. With the roof structure now taking shape, we are preparing to transition to the next phase and expect to begin interior framing very soon.
