About Mike Petersen About Mike Petersen

Mike Petersen Woodpeckers Inc. Construction

I graduated from Weymouth Vocational High School in 1980 and have worked for myself ever since. I knew from an early age that building is what I wanted to do, and I consider myself lucky to do something I enjoy — it doesn't even feel like it's work.

I grew up in Massachusetts and worked in the South Shore area of Boston until we moved to Acton, Maine in 2003. We bought and restored a 206-year-old farmhouse. Now my wife Patty and daughter Emily and I enjoy life in the country along with our two dogs, our cats, and our horses.
