"After and before pictures. I love my kitchen. Austin is easy to work with. I had a budget and an idea of what I thought I wanted. Austin worked with me on layout, design options, colors, all the choices can be overwhelming. He over saw every detail. I was at the top of my budget but wanted a little bit different quartz counter top. Austin went over options with me. I changed something less important and got my dream counter. I had a new dream kitchen in mind. A&M took me through the whole process and made it a reality! I got quartz counters, a navy blue island, the rest of the cabinets white, new kitchen window, new full glass door to our sunroom, new lvp flooring, white subway backsplash, the knobs, the sink, the touch control faucet, the wine holder in the coffee bar area! Every detail I wanted, it’s beautiful! I would definitely recommend them. Friendly, easy to work with and fair pricing. We are extremely pleased with our kitchen."

"Todd and his team are the best guys around for so many jobs! We had 2 septic failures and clogs in our two cottages and alarms going off that became emergencies! They came right away, problem solved and fixed both of our old systems perfectly! They replaced a pump, got rid of roots and put in new lines to our leaching fields! They are very talented, hard working responsible, professional and give you the best price around! Josh works the excavator like a pro from dawn till dusk if needed! We are so happy with our new septic systems and feel so relieved they are finally working well! Look no further people you have your guys! THE BEST!!!!"

Portland Kitchen Quotes is a kitchen design studio serving Portland and Southern Maine. Tell us about your kitchen: the layout, the measurements, the style you want. We design it in our own kitchen design software, with 3D renderings and wall-by-wall layouts, then hand you a real cabinet package to build from. That means a complete cabinet schedule, sized and specified for your room, not a rough guess.\n\nWe work with established cabinet lines, including shaker, painted, and wood finishes, and every design comes with a budget range before final supplier pricing. Whether you're remodeling, replacing cabinets, or planning a kitchen in new construction, you start with a design you can actually see.\n\nStarting your design takes about ten minutes, and it's free with no obligation.

"We hired Windows Source to replace all our doors (4) and windows (20) including 1 large bay window. They also did our entire house in vinyl cedar siding. Our entire home was upgraded by WS. Service was incredible and install was perfect. We highly recommend Window Source."

"Patrick is a man of his word. Even though his subcontractors let him down he was there to the end working long hours , weekends, what ever was needed to complete the job. He did some extra things we weren't expecting which were really nice touches. Willing to give suggestions which all seemed to be good. We looked at 4 different contractors and his price was the best(in a few cases by far), he stuck to the budget. Will hire him for another job!!!"

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home. 

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.

Modular homes can be a great investment, especially for those who find the prices of stick-built real estate too high. Modular homes are usually much more affordable because they’re mass-manufactured and then assembled on-site or delivered mostly assembled. If they’re installed properly and by professionals, they can last for between 50 and 100 years, potentially making them an outstanding investment.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.
