Building Dream Homes, Sustainably
While I have been building full time for 25 years, my journey into owning a residential construction company began in 2015 with a simple, unwavering vision: to build not just houses, but enduring dream homes, all while setting a new standard for customer service and sustainability. After over a decade in the business, that vision is now the blueprint for my company. I built this company on the belief that a client's imagination is the only limit to what we can achieve.
Commitment to Sustainability and Efficiency
From the beginning, sustainability has been a guiding principle. I have a deep commitment to using mostly local materials, which not only supports Maine’s economy, but also drastically reduces the environmental impact of our projects. My dedication to energy efficiency is demonstrated by my membership in the Passive House Institute, and the capability to construct homes to rigorous Passive House standards.
However, I recognize that true value lies in practical, cost-effective solutions. We have pioneered methods that achieve nearly the same dramatic energy use results as Passive House, but at a significantly lower premium, typically adding only an extra 1% to 3% to the total cost of building a house. This approach ensures high-performance homes are accessible without compromising quality.
At Acadia Building Company, we pride ourselves on the attention we give to every detail of the build process. From the initial consultation through to final walkthrough, our team ensures that each project reflects the highest standards of craftsmanship and quality.
Our approach combines traditional building techniques with modern innovation, ensuring your home stands the test of time while incorporating the latest in energy efficiency and smart home technology.
Dylan's philosophy is simple: build homes that people love coming back to every day. This means listening carefully to what our clients want, understanding how they live, and creating spaces that enhance their daily experience.
Whether it's a custom home on the coast of Maine or a thoughtful renovation of a historic property, we bring the same level of dedication and expertise to every project we undertake.
