“Trust. There is no more critical aspect to the relationship between client and builder than trust. Bay Chamber took on a monumental project, having purchased a landmark building in Camden, Maine, and converting it to a concert venue and music school. Through every single step of the way, Tamarack Builders' integrity was at the forefront. From budget to materials, scheduling, and the myriad of complex details that went into this project, we knew we could trust Andrew and Cal to give us their best. We fully relied on them to build a state-of-the-art facility and that's exactly what they delivered. We offer our highest possible recommendation.”
Monica Kelly, - Executive Director of Bay Chamber
“Tamarack Builders and their team of craftspeople attended to every step, stage, and detail of the construction process -- from the laying of an advanced energy-conserving foundation, to framing worthy of old-world masters, to selection and installation of fixtures, and on to the supervision of rooftop solar arrays. At every step of the process, they demonstrated in-depth knowledge of the skills, materials, and technologies needed to create a high-efficiency house. At every moment, they ably marshaled networks of experts who could discover optimal solutions to any challenge. As the project progressed, they attended to the integration of all these elements, making sure that everything worked with everything else. At completion, they polished every detail, bringing all the minutiae to a superior level of finish and functionality. Time and again, Tamarack Builders showed that they understand what it takes to build an ecologically “green” house and, better, that they respect the environment as much as they respect their clients. Under the stewardship of Tamarack Builders, the building process, so often accompanied by anxiety, instead became a pleasure, even an entertainment. Cal and Andrew honor their team, who, in turn, pick up on that appreciation and render superior service. I hold Tamarack Builders and its proprietors, Cal and Andrew, in highest esteem. These gents are engines of excellence. They bring out the best in their workers and subcontractors. They convert a miasma of construction materials into splendid, precisely detailed, firmly built dwellings that will surely last for many lifetimes. Our new home is the most comfortable and beautiful habitation that we could ever imagine. Indeed, we never thought such excellence was attainable. There is never a week that goes by without some passerby noticing and spontaneously stopping by to praise and to learn about the astounding virtues of our house. Recommendation: Hire Tamarack Builders immediately! They are, in one word, the best.”

We live out of state, so finding someone we trusted to handle the work was important. We found that with Tamarack Builders. The quality of work and level of skill they have shown on our job is unmatched. We highly recommend Tamarack Builders and hope to work with them again in the future.”
