What Hebert Construction does

Hebert Construction is a fourth-generation, family-owned commercial construction contractor founded in 1943 in Lewiston, Maine and operating today as Hebert Construction, LLC. The company delivers general contracting, construction management, design-build, preconstruction, and self-performed trade services (rough and finish carpentry, drywall, millwork, painting, windows, doors/frames/hardware, and exterior cladding) across healthcare, education, commercial, community/nonprofit, banking, and housing projects. A wholly-owned development subsidiary, Hebert Development, extends the offering into integrated commercial real estate development from project conception through construction. Geographically the firm is concentrated in central, coastal, and southern Maine, operating from a Lewiston headquarters (relocated to 150 Mill Street in 2023) and a Portland satellite office opened in 2018.

Revenue is generated through project-based contracts — fixed-price or cost-plus — across both public-facing commercial work and private developer partnerships (Avesta Housing, Jack Soley/New Ventures, Szanton Company, Lewiston Housing Authority). The customer base skews toward enterprise and institutional buyers, including healthcare systems (Franklin Memorial Hospital, Pediatric Associates, Central Maine Healthcare), schools and universities (St. Dominic Regional High School, University of New England, North Yarmouth Academy), banks and credit unions (Norway Savings Bank, cPort Credit Union, Dirigo Federal Credit Union), and retail/industrial clients (Geiger, Fluor Daniels). Distribution is entirely direct, driven by relationship-based enterprise field sales, repeat-client referrals, and developer joint-venture arrangements; the firm maintains no channel, reseller, or marketing-led acquisition motion.

The company has invested selectively in modern construction methods, including Atlas Structural Systems prefabricated wall/floor/roof panels (used at Seavey Crossing) and TimberHP wood fiber insulation (first residential use nationally at Seavey Terraces), and has achieved LEED Gold certification for the Geiger Lewiston facility. Ownership remains entirely within the Hebert family across four generations, with Tim Hebert as CEO, Mike Hebert as President, Simon Hebert as COO, and Kayla Bartlett as the first non-family CFO; the firm has no venture capital, private equity, or institutional ownership, and has executed no acquisitions or outside funding rounds to date.
