"Ryan is very responsive, but a lot of the details (trim, corners, clean up) in the the job were poorly done for the tiles and carpentry. There were some significant mistakes around executing the asked for design that ended up causing delays and costing more money. If you hire him, you should check his crew work routinely so mistakes can be corrected. He is really good at fixing the mistakes while the job is ongoing. Unfortunately, I have been finding things a month later and fixing them now would be cost prohibited."

"Contractors did a fantastic job! Process took some time as there was a lot that needed to be done but I am extremely satisfied with the results. Would definitely recommend!"

"Matthew and his team performed a fantastic job that exceeded our expectations, communication was always great and the project was finished on time and on budget. We also appreciate the experience and guidance on to improve the vision we had. We will definitely hire Matthew for a next project."

"Real well. As a small project with a lot of drive time involved we had to be a little flexible regarding scheduling. But Giant Rocks worked with us and the work was done professionally and we’re very happy with the results."

I have spent the last four years remodeling and constructing new buildings, working for other companies such as Hausmann Construction and Samsung Construction—including on the renovation of the football stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. I have carried out renovations of churches and schools, as well as basements, garages, bathrooms, and kitchens. Now, I have established my own company, and I am ready to apply all my expertise to grow my business.

In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"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."

"Very prompt, friendly and very reasonable on cost for their service. Will definitely be using their service again for other projects we have planned."

"Very professional and excellent skills, my storage house looks amazing. Job was completed in one day and the price was reasonable. I would recommend him to family and friends."

"We originally contacted Angie's List because we thought we just needed a small deck railing repair. After a handful of contractors came to our house, and gave us their bed, as well as their thoughts on our deck and railing, we were then faced with our worst nightmare! It was not just our railings and that needed repairing we needed a completely new deck!...
With estimates coming in from 6 to 8 companies from here on Angie's List and private contractors and a friend from high school who owns the company in Lincoln...the estimates that were coming in were more than we could wrap our mind around.
Our last estimate to come in was from Paul with Marathon Services! .. By then we were past overwhelmed. ...and had no idea what we were going to do, let alone how we were going to pay for this repair..aka whole new deck!
Paul listened to what our situation was... (really didn't use our deck at all since we had been in our house..nearly 2 yrs)...our biggest concern was the SAFETY of our family especially that of our nearly 3 yr old son. Paul could relate as he has grandkids...and could relate to us wanting the best and safest environment!
We had a low budget...but we needed great quality! Paul told us he would help us make it happen.
Moving some things around , Paul gave us a number that was more than fair!...Better than we could believe. ..and assured us he would take great care of us...not to worry anymore! !
But of course I did....and made 2 million calls asking questions. .questioning the work of his guys.. (like I knew better..haha)...and Paul and his crew answered my questions and re assured me every time!
Being that safety was such a concern of ours...as we wanted to be able to spend much more time on our new deck...and be able to allow our son to be on the deck and not worry he was going to lean on something and fall to the ground....not feeling like we were closed in was important as well..
I started to look on the Internet at different options. ..when I found something that I thought would work..I gave Paul a call...and he was VERY OPEN to my idea...!
Our (my husband and myself) concern again was money. .budget. ..
Paul moved things around. ..exchanged things...and gave us our special personalized and very unique deck railings!
Paul really understood and agreed that this would be the best and safest for my family! ....
Half way through the project.... I asked for one more thing... A gate with a latch at the top of the stairs for one more safety measure for our son.... Paul's crew made it happen too!!!
Except for a couple of scheduling issues in the beginning.... (when we were able to meet up for the first time..Paul arrived with a pie in hand for the inconvenience of rescheduling a couple times..) .. (which seemed to be more upsetting to Paul than to us).. and a day or so of rain... (which the crew worked in part of the time)... our experience was Spectacular!
We are more than satisfied with Paul and marathon services. Paul had our best interest at hand and that is appreciated more than he may realize!
We would definitely use Marathon Services again in the future and will refer anyone we know to marathon services if the job fits!
