Legacy Construction built an addition onto our home, and the quality is outstanding. The new space blends perfectly with the original house. They worked with us on budget and design and were always upfront about costs and options. Very professional from start to finish.

What We Build in Buxton

That Build Can Not WaitYou have seen it coming.

You bought land along Chicopee Road because you wanted space. The garage plans are sitting in a drawer. The addition you talked about every fall still has not started. Every winter that passes makes the wait harder.

You called a few contractors last spring. One showed up, gave a ballpark number, and never followed up. The other two never returned your call.

Every season you wait is costing you more:
  • Material costs keep rising and your budget buys less every year


  • Another year passes without the home or space your family needs


  • Your property sits underused while land values shift around you
  • You spend another winter making do with a home that does not fit


  • The project you want next year will cost more than it does today

Stop putting it off. Call (207) 544-4607 for a free estimate on your project.

How We Get Your Build Done

You have waited long enough. We take your Buxton project from plans to a finished build with a clear timeline, a fixed price, and personal oversight at every phase.

  • Buxton Properties and the Rural Realities

    Buxton's large lots and rural character give homeowners room to build, but septic setbacks, ledge depth, and variable drainage conditions are the real constraints on every parcel. We evaluate every Buxton site before developing a building plan so the scope accounts for what the land actually demands.

  • The Legacy Standard on Buxton Builds

    Buxton homeowners building custom homes or major additions choose Legacy Construction because they want accountability most residential builders cannot deliver. Joe Hausler is personally involved in every phase. The team's commercial-project management background means nothing falls through the cracks on your build.

  • What Buxton Clients Experience

    Buxton clients working with Legacy Construction get Joe Hausler personally involved in planning and site oversight, Jonathan Henshaw's trade coordination keeping the build on schedule, and Tim Schofield's finish carpentry making the details right. Weekly progress updates are standard. The fixed-price contract holds.
