OUR STORY
Encore Construction’s founder, Dale Nikula, worked for his father for many years before starting the Dale R. Nikula Co. Inc in 1995. Dale had established a reputation as an outstanding carpenter, but clients quickly discovered that he was just as talented at leading people and projects.
The company grew steadily as word spread about the high level of quality and customer service that it offered. In 2003, Dale renamed the company Encore Construction to reflect the fact that many of his clients had them do multiple projects over the years.
In 2021, Dale sold his ownership of Encore to his General Manager, Kathy DeMeyer. Kathy had been with the company for 19 years, bringing her skills and expertise to her positions as office manager, production manager, designer and finally general manager before assuming ownership.
Encore continues to provide comprehensive Design/Remodel and custom home services to its clients on Cape Cod, and has received numerous awards for both its client service and project design and quality. Encore’s work has been featured in Home Remodeling, Cape Cod Life, Boston Design Guide, as well as several remodeling industry magazines.
