## The honest read

"Extremely knowledgeable home builders," a July 2025 Google reviewer wrote of Dann and the crew at Whitecap Builders, a Belfast, Maine outfit. The same reviewer said the crew cleaned up when they were done, was polite, respected their privacy, and that they would hire Whitecap again. The company says it has been in business 40 years and lists a service area running from Belmont and Bucksport to Camden, Rockport, Rockland, Searsport and Waldo. Its website offers free estimates and says it is insured.

In February 2025 a reviewer said Whitecap had plowed their business's parking lot and shoveled its walks for five winters, and called the company reliable. A 2022 commenter on r/maine, who said a friend owns the business, called it an honest outfit and very busy.

In a January 2023 Google review, a customer said they called a few times for an estimate, left a message each time and never got a call back. A September 2022 reviewer called Whitecap the worst building company they had dealt with, "mean and unhelpful." Google shows 3.9 stars from 7 ratings.

**Strengths:**
- Clean, polite crew — cleaned up and respected privacy, July 2025
- Winter plowing — one business client served five winters

**Concerns:**
- Unreturned calls — no callback on a January 2023 estimate request
- Rude treatment — called mean and unhelpful in a September 2022 review
