Two brothers, a lot of yellow legal pads, and a ton of quarters in payphones between job sites. Mike Thiede Sr., his wife Marianne, and his brother, George, started small but delivered big, with high quality work and a commitment to candid communication. Decade after decade, their roster of word-of-mouth clientele grew. Fast forward to today. We’re now in the second-generation of ownership, with another set of brothers at the helm. Still maintaining that high-touch, high quality feel. With decades worth of hands-on industry experience, they’ve helped solidify Bethesda Contracting as a problem-solving powerhouse and the area’s most trusted partner in design build and remodeling. ### Services Provided - Home Remodeling - Bathroom Remodeling - Kitchen Remodeling - General Contracting - Home Additions - Basement Remodeling - Garage Building - Outdoor Kitchen Construction - Pool House Design & Construction - Porch Design & Construction - Project Management - Custom Home Bars - Tile Installation - House Framing - Shower Installation - Home Gym Design & Construction - Demolition - Sliding Door Installation - Trim Work ### Areas Served - Silver Spring - Bethesda - Potomac - Chevy Chase - South Kensington - North Chevy Chase - Arlington - DC (Washington) ### Typical Job Cost $50,000 - 2 million $50,000 - 2 million ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Bethesda Contracting | | Address | 4304 East West Highway, Bethesda, Maryland 20814, United States | | Phone | (301) 656-9020 | | Website | http://bethesdacontracting.com | | Followers on Houzz | 26 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/bethesdacontracting - Blog — www.bethesdacontracting.com - Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/bethesdacontracting/ ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Bethesda Contracting](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/bethesda-contracting-pfvwus-pf~1544347105) - **Website:** http://bethesdacontracting.com - **Phone:** (301) 656-9020 ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 2 reviews** ### All 2 reviews **★★★★★ — carrieandstan, March 2016** > I lived in the house while two second floor bathrooms were being remodeled. I have nothing but good reviews for the firm. The workers were extremely clean, respectful and very quiet. No loud music blaring in the house! The workers were very prompt and worked all day without multiple breaks or down time. Project was started on time and ended close to the estimated time I received before the project started. The remodeling involved removing walls back to studs and rebuilding everything. You never know what you will find in a 67 year old house! > > I would hire them again for sure. **★★★★★ — minnienevada, Feb. 2014** > My initial meeting with this company was easy and comfortable. I was given some useful suggestions for moving forward, including some money saving ideas that I would not have known about on my own -- who wouldn't appreciate that?! I am not yet prepared to hire this (or any other) contractor, but this was a wonderful beginning. I hope to work with Bethesda Contracting in the near future. ## Selected projects - [Timeless and inviting in the Hamlet](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/timeless-and-inviting-in-the-hamlet-pj-vj~7799626) - Location: Chevy Chase, MD - Photos: 25 - [French Inspired Entertainer's Delight](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/french-inspired-entertainer-s-delight-pj-vj~7795073) - Location: Darnestown, MD - Photos: 13 - [Chevy Chase View Sunroom & Kitchen Redesign](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/chevy-chase-view-sunroom-and-kitchen-redesign-pj-vj~7795054) - Location: Kensington, MD - Photos: 19 - Description: This client’s once underutilized screened porch was thoughtfully transformed to expand both the kitchen and living areas, creating a more functional and connected layout.
