Built for Falmouth's Building Market
Falmouth Foreside and other neighborhoods have seen steady demand for full teardowns to make way for new construction — Briggs Contracting clears the lot completely and hauls debris so the next phase can start on schedule.
Many Falmouth properties sit on multi-acre lots with water access along the Cousins River and Casco Bay, where site work often means careful equipment access and protecting surrounding land, not just the structure itself.
Falmouth's housing stock ranges from classic New England homes to recent builds — the right approach to a demo job depends heavily on which one you're standing in. Falmouth also has its own building and zoning approval process, and Briggs Contracting acquires the necessary permits on every job.
Why Falmouth Property Owners Choose Briggs Contracting
Briggs Contracting was founded in 2008 by Chaz Briggs as an all-season landscaping and hardscape company, so site work and land clearing are part of the original skill set, not an add-on. Chaz sharpened his skills on large-scale disaster-recovery demolition in Houston following Hurricane Harvey before bringing that experience back home to Maine.
