Kodiak Builders is a detail-driven carpentry and renovation company serving Southern Maine. Every project we take on, whether it is a small repair, a custom built-in, or a full interior renovation, is approached with an emphasis on quality, communication, and craftsmanship.

Owner Forest Gagné grew up in Maine with deep roots in the state, where an early appreciation for the natural landscape and traditional Maine craftsmanship led him to study woodworking and furniture design. That foundation eventually guided him into residential construction, where his love for architecture, especially the character and history of Maine homes, shaped the direction of his work. Today, clients work directly with Forest from day one, ensuring clarity, accountability, and a truly personalized experience from start to finish.

We believe that good work should not only look great but last for decades, which is why we focus on thoughtful design, precise execution, and materials that stand up to Maine’s unique climate.
