Thank you for visiting Archadeck of Central Maine, the leading outdoor living space builder in the Bangor, Augusta, and Waterville areas. We're known for creating additions that seamlessly work into the existing design of your property, building new structures that looks as if they were always part of our clients' homes. We're proud to say we don't offer a catalog full of ready-made decks, patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and more, nor do we charge by the square foot. Every design is one-of-a-kind and custom made for our clients.

"I highly recommend Archadeck of Central Maine. The carpenter, Garret, except for a few hours on the first carpentry day and the entire last day, worked on this by himself. He did a phenomenal job! On the last day he was joined by Preston and he did a great job as well. This project had some unique elements. First, was the slope of the ground. Second, was the design. The lower deck was designed to hold a hot tub (not shown here) to be accessed from the upper deck in the area between the two railings. One whole side of the upper deck remained without a railing as I wanted deck access to be at any point along the footpath. It'll be my task to backfill the gap between the deck surface and the footpath. Total number of days worked on this project was six (6). TJ and Jessi are easy to work with and the cost was very reasonable. We are THRILLED with the results!!"

"Alex called me as soon I put in the request for lawn care services and was willing to come by the same day for a quote. He came the next day to mow and was prompt, professional, and upfront about his services and prices. We had just moved into our home and the yard had not been mowed in quite some time. He had it all cut quickly. We will be continuing to use his services and recommending him to others in the area!!"

We specialize in those projects not large enough for frame to finish builders and too big for the average handyman, like kitchen and bath renovations, decks and porches, heat pump installations, tile work and cabinetry just to name a few. Diversity and experience are the benchmarks of our success. Decades of trades work leads to refined skills from conception and design to intricate finishes. I spent years as an electrician before advancing into general contracting and whole home renovations. This allows me to handle all tasks on any given project rather than involving multiple costly sub-contractors. We take pride in the level of communication and involvement given to our customers, empowering them to be involved and make informed choices leading to the upmost satisfaction with the final product. Quality and attention to detail never waiver in our approach to contracting, simply put we will not cut corners to cover cost. Customer satisfaction is the most important metric by which we measure successful outcomes. My father tought me the trades and his father taught him so the tradition of Mainers helping neighbors and being accountable are values deeply ingrained in my work and way of life. Let us help you get your "to do".....done. -Carpentry -Electrical -Plumbing -Renovations -Heat pumps (mini-splits) -Kiitchens (including custom countrrtops in any finish, custom cabinetry, tile and even design -Baths -Decks, porches, patios and hardscapes -Painting -Drywall -Repairs - as well as all other services you may need !

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Even if your deck is properly constructed with a solid foundation, it doesn’t always mean it can handle the extra weight of a sunroom. Always call in a structural engineer to perform a deck inspection to evaluate the quality and structural integrity of the deck before building. You may need to reinforce the foundations and joists, and with decks in poor condition, it might be better to tear them down and start again. A pro can help you decide.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

There are several methods of supporting a balcony. Very small balconies, such as Juliet balconies that don't include any usable floor space and don't need to support human weight, may simply require supporting bolts drilled into the home's structure. Cantilevering is a method that requires no additional exterior supports, and larger balconies typically need posts and footings to carry the weight from below.

We recommend hanging a porch swing at least 2.5 to 3 feet from the wall and about 17 inches above the ground to avoid damaging your home. You want enough clearance behind it and on each side of the porch swing to move around safely and avoid the chains rubbing against it.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.
