Peter was extremely organized, communicated well with us and has the most wonderful crew of highly skilled craftsmen working with him. Our barn project was fairly complicated and had changes throughout the building process. We worked with Peter and his crew as a team and always felt that they responded to our questions and concerns and we tackled issues together. The quality of building and attention to detail is like no other we have seen, and we felt that the crew often went above and beyond the call of duty in every aspect of their work.
Our house project included new shingles, shutters and windows on the exterior and new and refinished hardwood floors, remodeled and custom built-in cabinets and new lighting on the interior. Peter's team arrived on time, were so pleasant to have inside our home for many weeks, and did the best quality work we have ever seen. Additionally, they were very considerate of the fact that our family was living through the construction process and kept the job site extremely neat and organized. We couldn't be happier with the entire process as well as the finished product! We love our "new" home."

"My wife and I found a lot in Cape Elizabeth and with the help of Peter Rice and his crew, built our dream house.
Since we live in California, our situation was potentially quite difficult. Building a house three-thousand miles away presented a big challenge. We needed to have a contractor who could make decisions as if we were there.
Peter did. It was a very collaborative partnership.
I am in the construction business, and I can tell you that the quality of construction, from the inside out, is superb. Peter's integrity, honesty, and ingenuity are truly exceptional in a very competitive industry. His crew took the same care in building our home as if it were their own. They were highly skilled, pleasant to work with--always, and kept the work areas neat and organized at all times.
Our overall experience was everything we could have asked for and more. So is our house!"

Over the wet bar in our new dining room, we hoped to put in a genuine porthole. It was an odd request -- one of a kind. This porthole was to be inside the glass front cupboards that hold the various sizes of cocktail glasses. The porthole objective was that when we reached for a glass, we would also be able to view parts of Casco Bay.
Bravo! The porthole over the wet bar is perfect and a reminder of the meticulous, creative and caring work Peter B. Rice & Co. is known for."

"As an architect, I have worked with Peter and his crew on a variety of projects ranging in size from small renovations and additions to new homes. Regardless of the size and complexity, Peter's careful thinking and planning goes into every project. As a designer, I am keenly aware of the importance of good communication and workmanship in creating outstanding homes. Peter Rice & Co. earns high marks for both. My clients often ask me to recommend a builder. I always think first of Peter."

"When we wanted to renovate our entire second floor, we hired Peter because we recognized his professionalism and attention to quality and detail in the first moments of meeting him. It was a large project, and our first major home improvement job, so we wanted someone who made us feel we could put our complete trust in him. The crew was wonderful to have around-- hard-working, considerate, organized, and prompt. The job was finished beautifully and on time. Not only do we love the results, but we continue to receive many compliments from our neighbors and visitors. We would recommend Peter and his group to anyone who has a large project and wants it done right."
