A 100-year-old Swedish-built cabin that needed a log replaced is one recent job for MJC Construction. That customer turned to Max for the repair and wrote that he has had over 30 years working in the log home industry. A recent customer whose log camp needed restoration said Max and his wife came on the day they said they would, had a quote to them within hours, and started work on the day expected. Max cleaned the entire exterior of the camp, came back once it had dried to caulk all the spaces, and matched the caulking to the stain; the cabin was stained with two coats, and that customer said they paid exactly what they were quoted. A recent customer with a 40-year-old log cabin said Max returned the call quickly, stopped by within a week to give a quote, and did the repair soon after. A recent customer called Max and Allison competent and personable after repairs on a 100-year-old log cabin. A 2026 customer who had just moved into a log cabin said Max was onsite the next day for an inspection and answered questions about log home maintenance, and that the crew replaced the rotten log sections through the Maine spring weather. The work goes beyond log homes. A 2025 customer said the team handled plumbing, carpentry, painting and electrical work on two bathrooms, which came with a 1 year warranty. A 2024 customer said a wall was taken out and support beams put in within 2 days.
My 40 year old log cabin had a couple spots that needed some attention. I called Max at MJC Construction and he quickly returned my call. Within a week, he had stopped over to take a look at my situation and provided me a quote. The repair was done soon after . The work provided was top notch and exceeded my expectations. The repair looks great and I would recommend MJC Construction to anyone who needs similar log cabin repair.
Competent and personable, Max and Allison exceeded my expectations for repairs on our 100 year old log cabin. Thank you!
Our log camp was showing signs of age. The logs were badly in need of restoration. We thought we would attempt to stain it ourselves but we are certainly happy that we did not! We googled log home preservation and came upon MJC Construction totally by chance. We gave them a call and were thrilled to hear that they could come right away to give us a quote. Max and his wife were there on time, on the day they said they’d be there. We liked them both immediately and were confident that they knew what they were doing. Max has extensive experience with log preservation and his knowledge was obvious. We had the quote within hours and found it to be quite reasonable. Work began on time, on the day we expected and the job was completed efficiently and professionally. Our camp looks AMAZING! Max cleaned the entire exterior of the camp and when it had thoroughly dried he came back and caulked all the spaces. He was careful to find an exact match between the caulking and the stain. The cabin was completely stained with two coats, and we paid exactly what we were quoted. Through it all Max communicated clearly, every step. We truly enjoyed talking with Max and found him, and his crew, to be fun and personable. Without the slightest hesitation, we highly recommend MJC Construction for your log home needs!
A big problem when owning a log home is finding a reliable expert to repair it. Fortunately, I found Max. He is very experienced and a master of the craft. Very conscientious and hard working. He has had over 30 years working in the log home industry. My own situation required a log replacement on a 100 year old Swedish build cabin. If you own a log home, you can do no better than hiring Max for your repair. And I should add, very pleasant to deal with.
We cannot say enough good things about Max and his crew at MJC Construction. We recently moved into our log cabin and found we were in need of a contractor with log home expertise. After speaking with Max, he was onsite the next day for an inspection, and here to perform repairs shortly after. He answered our questions on the issues and shared insights of owning a log home and their required maintenance. The crew worked quickly, through the Maine spring weather, to replace the rotten log sections and left our home looking like nothing ever happened. I highly recommend MJC Construction for anyone's log home needs.
