Getting to Know Topsham

Topsham was incorporated by the Massachusetts General Court back on January 31, 1764, on land the Pejepscot Abenaki had called Sawacook before a 1615-16 epidemic devastated the population; it picked up its current name in 1717, borrowed from Topsham, Devon, England. The Cathance River saw its first sawmill in 1716, and Pejepscot Falls went on to power a long run of mills and factories.

The Topsham Fair has run every year since its fairgrounds went up in 1856, put together by the Sagadahoc Agricultural & Horticultural Society, a tradition that has outlasted most of the industries that first built the town. Topsham also sits right where the Androscoggin River opens into Merrymeeting Bay, one of the more distinctive pieces of geography in the region.

Topsham Homes and What They Need

Topsham's median home was built in 1980, with about 12 percent of housing predating 1940 and 26 percent predating 1960 -- a newer mix than its Kennebec River cousins, blending an older mill-village core near the Androscoggin with later 20th-century subdivisions. That mix means service calls run the gamut from vintage mill-house wiring to routine maintenance on 1980s-and-newer systems. Heat pump maintenance is a common call on the newer end of that stock.

Heating and Cooling in Topsham

Fuel oil heats about 48 percent of Topsham households, with utility gas at 20 percent and bottled or tank propane at 13 percent, and the town sits within Maine Natural Gas's service area. Where a gas main reaches the street, a gas boiler installation is often the simplest path; off the main, we are just as likely to be sizing a heat pump alongside an existing oil system.

Water Supply and Drains in Topsham

Public water in Topsham comes from the Brunswick & Topsham Water District, drawn from groundwater well fields the two towns share, while the separate Topsham Sewer District collects wastewater and pumps it to Brunswick's treatment plant near the Androscoggin River. Because water and sewer run through two different districts here, a sewer line repair sometimes means coordinating with more than one utility before work can start.

Power, Storms and Wiring in Topsham

Central Maine Power delivers electricity to Topsham. With roughly a quarter of the town's housing predating 1960 and a good deal more built in the growth decades since, we see everything from older knob-and-tube remnants to panels that just need a few more circuits for modern appliances. Panel upgrades are a routine request as Topsham homeowners add heat pumps and EV chargers to houses built before either was common.
