SCARBOROUGH — Kevin French and Denis Landry, longtime fixtures in Maine’s commercial construction industry, announced on July 1 they have joined forces as part of a new partnership that will provide professional construction services to clients throughout the state. Landry Construction will now be known as Landry/French Construction. The business has also relocated from Lewiston to a larger space at 68 Mussey Road in Scarborough.

Landry has owned and operated Landry Construction since August 2006. During the past four years, his company has completed projects for L.L. Bean, Bangor Savings Banks, Preti Flaherty Beliveau & Pacios, and Brann & Isaacson, as well as multiple projects for TD Bank throughout the state.

Prior to starting his own construction company, Landry was president of Payton Maine Construction Corp. where he was in charge of commercial construction operations throughout Maine.

French joins Landry’s company as vice president and co-owner. For the past four years, French has owned and operated Riverside Builders, a company that handled residential construction projects in the Western Lakes and Mountains resort areas. Prior to starting Riverside Builders, French was co-owner and vice president of Ledgewood Construction.

The team, with experience in managing large-scale projects with budgets exceeding $30 million, is focusing on capital projects in the health care, banking, and academic sectors, as well as tenant fix-up work. Its services include construction management, design-build and design-bid-build with in-house estimating using MC² state-of-the-art estimating software.

Landry/French Construction employs a group of project managers, superintendents, estimators, carpenters and laborers. As a result of the partnership, Landry and French say they will be expanding their work force.
