About
Smith Builders holds GAF Master Elite Certification — a credential earned by fewer than 2% of roofing contractors nationwide — bringing that credentialed standard to commercial and mixed-use roofing projects across Bangor, Ellsworth, Belfast, and throughout Maine. Founded in 1993 by Chris Smith and now operating as a second-generation family business alongside son Ted, the company brings over 30 years of field experience to roof replacement, repair, and exterior services in one of the most weather-demanding climates in the northeastern United States. For facility managers and property owners overseeing retail centers, multifamily buildings, light industrial facilities, and mixed-use properties across Maine, Smith Builders offers roof installation and replacement in metal standing seam and asphalt systems, along with repair services suited to modified bitumen and EPDM membranes commonly found on low-slope commercial structures. Maine's freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and ice damming present serious risks to flat and low-slope roofing assemblies, and the team's local climate expertise positions them to assess and address these commercial-grade challenges with appropriate material selections and installation practices. The company services the greater Bangor metro and extends its reach statewide, giving property managers with assets across multiple Maine communities a single regional point of contact. Beyond roofing, Smith Builders offers complementary exterior services — including siding and seamless gutters — which can reduce coordination overhead for facility teams managing full-envelope maintenance on commercial and multifamily properties. Contractors seeking a GAF-certified installer with deep regional roots and demonstrated multi-decade tenure in Maine's exterior renovation market will find Smith Builders a credible option for commercial roofing scopes across the state's central and coastal markets.
