O’Brien Wood & Iron began over two decades ago with a single person and a single vision:

Better building by people who care.

Today, the company has grown to include a crew of talented and diverse individuals who have a combined total of more than 60 years in the construction industry. Our personal areas of interest and expertise range from historic preservation and residential carpentry to traditional boatbuilding, Passive House standards, and high-end home design & construction.

Together, we all work to help design, build, and improve your project with great care at every step. In other words: better building by people who care.

Quality materials, superior craftsmanship, distinctive details, high performance buildings, and excellent customer service are the cornerstones of our company. We’re in it for the long-haul, and we guarantee our work will last and meet your standards.

And because we know construction projects can be challenging, we strive to provide you with a team you’ll be happy to have in your home. At OBWI, we take good care of our employees so we can all work together to create a positive work atmosphere in the shop and on-site.

OWNER

Mat O’Brien

Mat has 18+ years of experience working in the building trades and holds a Bachelors of Fine Arts from MassArt. Mat brings his eye for design to every project, which is why OBWI is known for its innovative designs and great attention to detail. Mat started O’Brien Wood & Iron in 2008 in order to provide clients with honest and highly crafted builds. Other than art and design, his background includes a love of Historic Restoration and an interest in high efficiency and sustainable building practices. When not cheerfully interacting with the day to day operations of the business, Mat spends his time with his lovely wife, two daughters and his pup in and around the woods of Maine, while also slowly pursuing his Master’s Degree in Architecture.
