"We absolutely loved working with Bolte Construction. Bill and Geoff are both knowledgeable, friendly, fun to work with, and very protective of their clients' needs. We were nervous about hiring a contractor for the first time, and we were blown away by how great Bill and Geoff were. We could not have asked for a better experience. We contacted Bill based on other reviews on Angie's List. He came to the house and we described what we were looking to do -- add a kitchenette and laundry facilities to our finished basement. I had a rough sketch that I provided for the kitchenette. Bill assessed the locations we had picked out for the kitchenette and laundry room. He estimated what he thought it would take to get them done and gave us a rough guess on the cost. He was very knowledgeable and incredibly friendly. He had us laughing and really put us at ease. There was no doubt that we had found our contractor. We loved him instantly. Bill does not do design, so he gave us his preferred suppliers for design, cabinets, tiles, etc. While we were working on that, Bill had his contractors (plumbing, electrical, etc.) come to the house and evaluate the work. Once all of this was done, Bill worked up a final estimate and we got the work scheduled. Bill and Geoff (well, mostly Geoff!) got the basement ready for work. We have a walkout basement, so plans were made for everyone to come in and out of that door instead of using the front door. They pulled back the carpet all the way to the door to protect the carpet from damage. They also put up plastic sheeting to help contain the dust that would inevitably be flying around. They were so careful with our things and did everything they could to protect them. And all the while they were just incredibly enjoyable to have around! All the work went really smoothly. Bill works with great contractors, so you can trust that the job will be done well. Geoff was here frequently to check in on the work and make sure things were going well (and to help out where needed). Bill also stopped by from time to time. If I had any questions about the schedule or the work, I could contact Geoff and he always got back to me right away. Throughout the process, we felt like we were in great hands. From the moment we met Bill, and then later Geoff, we felt really confident about the whole project. By the time it was done, you couldn't even tell any construction had taken place, except that we had a beautiful new kitchenette and new laundry facilities. The experience was above and beyond what we had hoped for because Bill and Geoff are so great. We will definitely hire Bolte Construction again, and we cannot recommend them more highly."

"Ran into difficulties not caused by the contractor.  This left the project unfinished for sometime and then it was hard to get them back to finish the project.  However, the quality of the finished project was completed as was agreed and specified.

Marathon did an excellent job all around.  My 18 year old roof was at the end of its life so I asked for a bid.  The owner came out and noted that I had hail damage, and recommended that I contact my insurance company.  Sure enough it was covered, which I didn't expect for such an old roof, and this saved me over $12,000 on my $13,500 roof and skylight replacement.  Because their initial bid didn't have the level of detail I wanted, and because Marathon was working with my insurance company to cover more of the damage, I ended up asking Marathon to come out 3 different times.  Each time they were very polite and entirely professional.

I'm so happy with their work that I'm currently getting two more bids from them to replace our windows and the front porch.  Having worked with countless contractors in my lifetime Marathon was definitely top notch, and deserve an A rating.

"Everything went fantastic and Beau did a great job as you can see by the pictures. Our house sold in less than a day and I know Beau's fantastic work contributed to that. My wife and I were originally going to do the painting but due to life we were unable to with a shrinking timeline. I found Beau on Angies list and decided to give him a call. We set up a time for him to come by and do a bid. We explained to him our situation and that we were on a tight timeline. He did the walk-through, making recommendations as he went along. He provided the bid later that evening. Once we set-up a date, two days after Christmas, Beau was ready to go. He showed up everyday ready to work and did a great job working with us in getting our house to market. Overall, Beau did a fantastic job and was a great professional who was easy to work. Everything went fantastic and Beau did a great job as you can see by the pictures. Our house sold in less than a day and I know Beau's fantastic work contributed to that. I would recommend him to anyone considering having any work done."

The guy was great. He was very professional. He tried to work within the price range I gave him. I never used him. The company specialized in customized furnishings which is great but not for my project. I live in an older neighborhood. All I wanted was to clean up the bathroom, not really do an overhaul w/custom vanities, cabinetry etc. It wasn't the company's fault at all. Just basic (Lowe's) type of furnishings.. I felt bad because I feel like I wasted his time..I told him that. He was very kind. But if I ever decide to custom made remodel- I  WOULD DEFINITELY CALL CABINET CLAD 1ST.. W/O A DOUBT

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.
