Your basement should be the most comfortable floor in your house. At Getty Home Made, we specialize in high-quality basement finishing that bridges the gap between raw utility and intentional living spaces.
As a local, veteran-owned construction business, owners Jon Powell and Lenny Getty understand that a Kennebunkport basement requires more than just drywall. It requires a deep understanding of the Maine coastal environment and the disciplined execution of a master builder.
We believe that a finished basement should never look like an afterthought. Many contractors provide “builder grade” finishes that feel sterile or disconnected from the rest of the home. At Getty Home Made, we take a different approach.
In Kennebunkport, standard basement remodeling is not enough. Proximity to the Atlantic and the Kennebunk River means dealing with a high water table and unique soil pressure.
From the historic estates along Ocean Avenue to the busy corridors near Dock Square, building in Kennebunkport requires a partner who understands the local landscape. We perform site-specific evaluations to ensure your project includes the correct drainage for our regional soil and ledge conditions. Our team respects local traffic patterns and works closely with the Town of Kennebunkport offices to ensure every project is quiet, professional, and fully compliant with neighborhood standards.
A deep-dive audit to ensure the space is 100% dry before construction begins.
We draft bespoke plans and submit all paperwork to the Kennebunkport Code Enforcement Office.
Our veteran-led crews handle the framing and specialized coastal insulation with military precision.
We apply high-quality finishes and perform a final walk-through to ensure the space fits your lifestyle perfectly.
While we lead with basements, our mission is to handle all your high-end construction needs across York County. We provide the same intentional design and quality of work for:
Guest suites and detached units built to local Kennebunkport zoning standards.
Yes. Kennebunkport requires a building permit for all construction and development projects, regardless of size. This includes interior renovations to ensure they meet the Maine Uniform Building & Energy Code (MUBEC). We handle the entire application process, including the required scaled site plans and radon mitigation disclosures.
These areas are susceptible to nuisance flooding and storm surges. We implement specialized hydrostatic pressure management and internal drainage systems designed to protect finished living spaces even when the coastal water table rises during high-tide events.
It means we provide a bespoke finish that matches the high architectural standards of Kennebunkport. We focus on intentional design, high-end moisture-resistant materials, and custom trim details that ensure your lower level feels like a luxury suite rather than a basement.
Yes. Under state code, any habitable space or bedroom must have a compliant secondary exit. We specialize in installing egress windows that meet strict safety standards while respecting the historic curb appeal and exterior aesthetics of your home.
Our veteran-led crews operate with military precision and follow a strict 4-phase transformation process. Most high-quality projects in Kennebunkport are completed within 6 to 10 weeks once construction begins, depending on the complexity of the coastal mitigation.
Your home is likely your largest investment. Don’t settle for a basement that feels like a basement. Let Jon and Lenny show you how an intentional design and a veteran-led construction process can transform your lower level into the most utilized space in your home.
