Our Review

Editor's Rating
Editorial ReviewThey are a general contractor providing modular homes in Maine. They have relationships with several good quality modular manufacturers in Pennsylvania. This provides for better pricing but we do not encourage modular homes to be transported over 300 miles (and this is about a 500 mile trip) since this increases the wear and tear on the modules and greatly lowers the cost savings with increased transportation costs. Their website and customer service both seem to be lacking. But if you are looking for a modular general contractor in Maine there are few with more experience then Alternative Modular Homes.
