Bob LeClair was a skilled & reputable home builder- in the North Shore of Mass. since 1976 - where he met Sue. After Bob & Sue married, they moved their kids - daughter, Karissa and son, Ryan- to NH in search of a safe, quaint town to raise them. Shore-Built (previously LeClair Bros.) was incorporated in 1996 & spent the next decade building out subdivisions & remodeling homes.
As avid boaters, the Seacoast kept drawing this family there & ultimately fell in love with the beautiful Town of York. For the past two decades the LeClair family & Shore-Built have called York the home base for their cabinetry & building business.
Sadly, in 2016 the LeClairs & Shore-Built lost their beloved husband, dad, friend & fearless leader, Bob. His family felt a determination to continue his legacy through his son, Ryan. Ryan, Sue & the skilled Shore-Built team have honored his memory by growing the business & making many friends through the amazing Clients they meet.
Ryan had been learning at his dad's side since the age of eight & today serves as Vice President. Ryan capably handles everything from sales, to design, to general contracting & will be the familiar, friendly face on-site throughout your project.
As President, Sue manages the business including sales, employees, showroom, marketing and assists Clients as needed. Her highest priority is to always be a professional company offering cabinetry & building services with integrity & a personal touch.
The Shore-Built team, including employees and subcontractors (electricians, plumbers, carpenters, etc), has been working together for, on average ten years, some over 15 years & are considered part of the LeClair family.
Shore-Built is proud to be Houzz Winners for Best of Houzz from 2015 to 2022 but their greatest moments are the anxiously-awaited unveiling of the "after" results & their Clients' excited reaction. The LeClairs & Shore-Built can't wait to have you join their family!! Contact us today.

Client Testimonials

Shore-Built Construction did a fantastic job from beginning to end. They were very communicative and made each step very clear as we looked to expand our Church sanctuary. They did the work efficiently and worked with us to keep using the space during the construction for midweek services! I cannot recommend them enough!Read More

This past Spring Shore-Built Construction replaced most of our windows (24, I believe). Once started, the project moved along quickly and smoothly. The team cleaned up at the end of each work day, and the attention to detail was comforting.
We give Shore-Built our highest recommendation.Read More

It was a pleasure to have Shore-Built Construction handling the kitchen renovation for us. From the very beginning we sensed that we had made the right choice. Ryan and Sue LeClair guided us through the multiple decisions in doing a complete kitchen renovation top to bottom. They were available at all times to answer questions and give professional advice. Ryan and Sue thought of things we had not even thought about which made the entire project enjoyable. We strongly recommend Shore-Built Construction ..Read More

Shore Built Construction just completed multiple projects at our home including refurbishing our master bath shower, adding four large ceiling beams to our family room, rebuilding our living room fireplace surround and several other small rehab projects. Their work was excellent. Their crew is very talented and are extremely flexible in working with you to get the job done to your complete satisfaction. We would highly recommend using Shore Built for your next home remolding project.Read More

We have had several projects completed by Shore-Built in the last 6 months and another currently under contract. The craftsmanship and quality of work is excellent and we love that this is a family owned business. My husband and I grew up with family members in the contracting business and having moved several times we’ve had our share of home projects. Ryan and his team are extremely professional, reliable and pay attention to detail. Shore-Built is the most considerate and tidiest crew we’ve ever worked with, they leave your house the way it was found and clean up thoroughly after each project. In addition, Sue is a delight to coordinate and schedule projects with at the office. The communication is easy whether it is throughout the design phase or project execution. You can tell Shore-Built really cares about their clients and the high standard of work they produce.Read More
