Gary Woods

Shoreline Construction, Inc

For over four decades, Gary Woods has been a driving force in the Southern Maine Seacoast construction industry. As the President and Founder of Shoreline Construction Inc., Gary has built a sterling reputation defined by uncompromising quality, structural integrity, and an unwavering commitment to his clients. With a career spanning more than 40 years of hands-on industry experience, he has mastered every facet of the building trades, from initial site planning and land development to final custom finishes. His deep understanding of the region's unique architectural heritage and environmental demands has made him one of the most trusted names in local residential and commercial development, known for delivering results that stand the test of time.


Four Decades of Construction Expertise

Drawing on two decades of foundational industry experience, Gary founded Shoreline Construction Inc. in 2005 with a clear and distinct vision: to provide clients with a highly personalized, hands-on approach to general contracting. He recognized that building a luxury custom home or a complex commercial facility required more than just technical skill; it required clear communication, transparency, and a true partnership with the client. Under his leadership, Shoreline Construction has become a premier builder in York, Maine, and the surrounding coastal towns. His expertise spans luxury residential builds, comprehensive remodeling, and new commercial construction, always with an emphasis on premier craftsmanship. Moreover, his specialized knowledge as a flood zone building expert ensures that every coastal property his team touches is built to withstand the rigors of the Maine seacoast environment safely and securely.


Notable Projects and Commercial Success

Gary's impressive portfolio of completed work stands as a testament to his versatile capabilities and elite project management skills. His expertise is equally matched in both the residential and commercial sectors. Among his most notable recent achievements is the construction of the Admirals Inn Hotel, a beautiful 28-unit lodging facility located in the picturesque Perkins Cove of Ogunquit, Maine. This high-profile commercial build required meticulous coordination, stringent adherence to local commercial codes, and a keen eye for modern coastal hospitality design. In the residential sector, Gary successfully executed the Two Willows residential development project right in York Beach, Maine. By overseeing these large-scale developments from the ground up, Gary has consistently proven his ability to deliver complex, multifaceted projects on schedule while maintaining the highest standards of architectural beauty.


Deep Community Roots and Leadership

Gary's dedication to the Southern Maine Seacoast extends far beyond his busy construction sites. He is a deeply ingrained member of the local community, known just as much for his civic service as his building expertise. For three decades, Gary proudly served his community as a Fire Department Captain in York Beach, Maine. This remarkable 30-year tenure in emergency services highlights his innate leadership skills, his ability to make critical decisions under high pressure, and his profound commitment to the safety and well-being of his neighbors. The same reliability, integrity, and accountability that made him a highly respected Fire Captain are the core values he brings to every Shoreline Construction build.


Personal Interests and Family Life

When he is not actively managing a job site, consulting with clients, or giving back to his community, Gary embraces an active and fulfilling lifestyle. A true New Englander at heart, he takes full advantage of the region's winter months and is an avid enthusiast of both snowboarding and snowmobiling. These high-energy outdoor pursuits provide a perfect balance to his demanding professional life. Above all else, Gary cherishes the time spent with his family, especially the quiet moments he gets to share with his grandchildren. Whether he is building a physical legacy through his construction projects or building lasting memories with his family, Gary's passion, care, and dedication shine through in everything he does.
