Hardscape Construction
For the Cape Elizabeth, Falmouth & Portland, ME Areas
Concrete Installations
Concrete flat work, patios, and walkways. Concrete when installed correctly has minimal maintenance. Concrete is a perfect material for hot tub pads, and areas where you don’t need the aesthetics of decorative pavers
Shoreline Installations
Let Action Property Services Inc. provide you with a stress-free shoreline installation. We can take on the intimidating task of permitting your project, as well as dealing with Code Enforcement and the Department of Environmental Protection.
Maine requires contractors to be licensed to do landscape and hardscape installations within the shoreline zone (shoreline is considered within 250 feet from the water’s edge). Action Property Services holds all the proper licenses to do this type of work. All work is performed in house, allowing you to save you money by dealing with only one contractor.

NOTE TO HOMEOWNERS:
Town code enforcement officers and the State of Maine make it the homeowner’s responsibility to verify that the contractor has the proper qualifications. Unqualified contractors start these types of jobs without the proper state licensing and permitting, opening the homeowner up to liabilities with the town and state. This can result in the jobsite being shut down for months, having to file articles with the state to finish the job, and the possibility of heavy fines. The worst part is in the state’s eyes the homeowner is liable, so the unqualified contractor that got them into this mess can walk away from the project, leaving the homeowner with a complete disaster to deal with. It’s sad to say that we see this happen on a pretty regular basis.
We are more than happy to provide free estimates and consultation on these types of installations to educate homeowners so they can avoid getting tangled up in a nightmare scenario.

Benefits of Quality Patio Installation & Stone Walkway Projects for the Cape Elizabeth, Falmouth, & Portland, ME Community
When you purchase or build a residential or commercial property, implementing quality hardscapes can make a world of difference. Not only are these areas extremely functional when it comes to hosting, but they can make your everyday life easier. Stone walkways can make it simple for you and your guests to approach different doors on your property without having to walk through grass, lawn beds, or snow during the winter. Stone materials are also extremely easy to take care of and give off the luxury appearance of your own unique style.
Patio installations are also great for entertainment or simply to enjoy more time outside. We consider patios to be the essence of an outdoor living area, as those who choose to implement a patio installation often decorate the area with trendy furniture, fire pits, and other elements that can draw you and your guests into relaxing outdoors when the weather is permitting. While the Falmouth, Portland, & Cape Elizabeth, ME winters may be a little too cold to spend outside, our clients have found that the other three seasons are perfect to spend on their own custom patio installation.
