The home remodeling and building industries in Maine have surged this year, and the Home Builders and Remodelers Association of Maine is navigating the wave with a variety of new initiatives. Demand for remodeling is really high, Maya Bogh, president of HBRAME, told Mainebiz this week. New builds are also on the rise.
Also on the rise is membership in the association. Bogh was elected president in July as HBRAME, which represents about 120 residential builders and associated professionals in the state, looks to grow and innovate.
