Shaw Brothers Construction | Underground Upgrades & Rehabilitation

Our first projects back in 1977 were public utilities construction for New England Telephone. Since then, Shaw Brothers project supervisors have leveraged their vast experience delivering results for Central Maine Power Company, Portland Water District, FairPoint Communications, Maine Natural Gas, Portland Pipeline, and countless local water and sewer districts.

With our experience, knowledge, equipment, and exemplary safety record, Shaw Brothers is perfectly suited to tackle any underground utility project.
