D&S Builders LLC describes itself on the BBB as offering residential construction, including new construction, renovations and framing, and its website claims 35 years in business. A 2023 customer said D&S Builders constructed a home for them in Southwest Harbor, that Nathan laid out options and made recommendations as construction proceeded, and that the house stayed within the estimate despite supply chain issues and a labor shortage. A 2022 customer on Mount Desert Island hired the company to repair major structural damage. That 2022 account lists a new roof and gutters, 30 windows, 2 skylights and a glass patio door, a new deck, removal of extensive wood rot, stabilized load bearing walls, a HydroGap wrap and new cedar shakes. The same 2022 customer said Nate color matched the paint to the existing interior. A 2022 reviewer said the roof was reshingled and the chimney reflashed in less than a day, with the debris and old shingles cleaned up. A 2024 reviewer said a man in the company vehicle merged into their lane on Route 1A in Ellsworth while they rode motorcycles.
This guy likes to try to merge into motorcycles and run them off the road in his company vehicle for no reason. 9/23/24 at approximately 12-12:30 my group of 2 and I encountered this man on Route 1A in Ellsworth. He was in the slow lane and as my group and I went to go around him (not speeding, not harassing or ANYTHING) he then flew up next to us and began merging into our lane trying to purposefully hit us before flying past us once again (in the SLOW lane) cutting off the car in front of us. I hope you drive safer and stop trying to purposefully harm people. Absolutely crazy.
D&S Builders constructed a home for me in Southwest Harbor. It turned out better than imagined. Their terms were straightforward and fair. They provided a professional estimate and were helpful in getting what the bank needed. They used quality subcontractors and suppliers. As construction proceeded, Nathan laid out options and provided good recommendations based on his experience. They were very flexible in using items that I purchased as well as placing orders for me. Even with the recent supply chain issues and the shortage of labor, D&S made great progress on the house and stayed within the estimate. It was a pleasure working with D&S and I would highly recommend them for any building project.
We hired D&S Builders earlier this year to repair some major structural damage to our house. Nate and his entire crew did an outstanding job and we could not be more pleased with the results. The job included a new roof and gutters, replacement of all windows (30 windows, 2 skylights and a glass patio door), and building a new deck. In addition, the house had suffered from extensive wood rot. The team was meticulous in removing all of the rot and replacing with new materials, stabilizing the load bearing walls, wrapping the house properly using HydroGap and residing the house with all new cedar shakes. The repair work flows seamlessly both outside and in, as Nate was able to perfectly color match the paint with the existing custom interior of our house. Maintaining the original design of our house required Nate's team to have precision craftsmanship and they did not disappoint. The multiple roof lines was a challenge which they met. The intricate cuts required for each cedar shake was expertly handled. The entire team was professional, punctual, took great pride in every detail of their work and overall a pleasure to deal with. Nate did a fantastic job keeping the project running smoothly even with supply chain issues. We plan to use D&S Builders for additional projects in the future. - The Wrights, Mount Desert Island 2022
