Bold Construction

Seven years ago, we decided to build our dream home with Bold Construction after talking with several other local builders, and we still absolutely love it. The home and attention to detail have stood the test of time. Even more impressive, we’ve remained in touch with Chris and Jason over the years and continue to have a great relationship with the Bold team. It says a lot about a company when the connection lasts long after the build is complete. We have recommended BOLD Construction to several of our friends and will Highly recommend! - Gary Sawhney

Bold has proven to be the most professional and capable builders. Coordinating the steps from nearly 2000 miles away has been a challenge, yet every detail has been managed effectively and timely. Make a great choice and choose Bold. Bryan L. Huth

Taking on a remote build was something my wife and I knew was going to be a huge effort with balancing family activities and work. The key to success was engaging with the right designer and builder. We also knew building a custom home being remote would not make it any easier. There is no doubt we made the right choice in choosing Bold to build our custom home. The selections coordinator (Andrea) and construction leaders (Tanner and Les) assigned to our project were outstanding to work with! They went above and beyond to make sure my wife and I were informed and very happy with all of the key choices and decisions. Paces and Roehm Architecture (Abbie Lee and Riley) were also great to work with. They made the design process simple and captured our vision and requirements very well. Getting approval of our design by a architecture review board supporting the community was something new to my wife and I. We were nervous about this not knowing what to expect if we didn't get full approval. The Bold leaders supported us throughout the process and ended up helping us get past a challenge with some requested changes that would have compromised our design that we weren't happy with. I highly recommend Bold Construction....Chris Ehrenfeld and Jason Dell who lead Bold are outstanding to work with!

Very happy in our house! Like any construction we had our challenges, but the Bold team is a very good work with and has delivered a fine home that we enjoy every day.

Bold Construction helped with an addition on our home for my parents and we couldn't be more pleased. Very professional and prompt company to work with. Really helped with the design phase of the doorways and such to help accommodate wheelchairs, etc. All things we thought about but didn't know how to go about it. We are already planning for a Master Bath remodel in the spring.

I was somewhat surprised that I was asked to write a review because my home build did not go as smoothly as I would have liked. But after some thought, I realized that considering the hundreds of decisions that go into building a custom home, plus coordinating multiple trades while dealing with elements out of our control, it was unrealistic to think that it would have been a seamless experience. But what distinguishes a good builder from a bad one is their integrity and the ownership they take when mistakes are made. With regard to these two points, Bold Construction scores an A+ on both. The people at Bold genuinely care for the work they do and the clients who trust them with their projects. When you sign a contract with Bold, one of the addenda is an "Attitude Agreement" which basically says that both parties will treat the other with respect. The personnel at Bold always pick up the phone, or call you back within a few hours, are always friendly, and are always ready with an answer or the willingness to get one. When something goes wrong, no matter who is at fault, they are willing to remedy the situation. The culture of Bold very much starts at the top with the owners Chris and Jason and trickles down successfully throughout the company. There were some subcontractors that I wasn't happy with and they made every effort to either correct the problems or bring in new subs to fix the issue. That is not to say that I didn't get mad and disillusioned at times, but I always felt that I had people in my court to champion my build. Regarding finances, there were a number of unforeseen overages which could not have been predicted at the outset (for example, poor soil conditions and depth of well drilling) which added to the overall cost of the build, but beyond that, I was given realistic allowances to get the finishes that I wanted. My biggest recommendation is that Bold should be more pro-active in alerting their clients to budget for unforeseen expenses and be pleasantly surprised if they aren't necessary. With regard to the quality of the build, this is the second custom home I have built and the quality of workmanship from the first build to this one is night and day. Not only did Bold not cut corners (which is very common in the industry), they went above and beyond to make sure that everything was done perfectly. When my vision didn't match with theirs, they thought outside of the box to make creative compromises that worked aesthetically and fit the budget. As an interior designer, I had high demands and even higher expectations. The end result did not disappoint. I am living in my vision. It has been a few months since I moved into my house. On the 30-day walk through, I had no items that needed to be addressed. I have had a couple of unrelated problems which did not come under the auspices of Bold, yet still they have been happy and willing to help me. I am glad I chose Bold to build my house and would recommend them without compromise.

From start to finish, BOLD delivered an incredible experience. BOLD is committed to cultivating a great working relationship with its clients and is passionate about designing and building exceptional homes. We are thrilled with the end product—our home is spectacular.

We love our custom home built by BOLD! They did a fantastic job with the construction and follow-up. I highly recommend them

We built a custom home with BOLD 4 years ago. We recently decided to make some minor renovations to our home. The Bold renovations team did a great job and knocked it out quickly.

I am an architect who frequently works with Bold Construction on renovations and new construction projects. The entire team at Bold is exceedingly open to collaboration - lending their years of expertise to execute wonderful projects. They are very communicative, listen to their clients' needs and wishes, and create spaces that are both functional and beautiful. Most importantly, they work closely with Architects to create something personal, unique, and cost-effective.

A premium builder in the Triangle. It took a bit longer, but the end result was good. Adam is very good construction manager.

We were very pleased with Bold Construction’s work to renovate our attic into a home office. They were diligent, professional, and highly communicative. But I was most impressed with the fact that they came in well under budget. I’ll definitely use them again.

Can a house give you peace and joy every time you walk in the front door? Well, in our case, BOLD Construction and our architect, Abbie Lee Roehm, did just that. This is even more impressive b/c of the insanely hilly terrain on which the house is built (think “Swiss Alps”). Jason Dell, co-owner of BOLD Construction explained in painstaking detail how the civil engineering / water management plan would keep our house safe and snug, which it has. Additionally, we were impressed by the big picture vision for our home as a Modern Mountain Retreat as well as the attention paid to the smallest detail. Did I mention that I love the shower drains? And the outside view from the staircase? Who thinks to make these things beautiful? BOLD Construction, that’s who. Now having lived in this home for a short while, I can see both the quality of construction and the foresight in construction planning that it took to bring the house to life—things we would never have even thought of in a million years. It just comes naturally to BOLD. We still get great advice and support from the BOLD team – when we undertake some small design project or another to make the house even more special. Deke Burch and others are always ready with ideas, suggestions, and connections to great tradespeople. We feel very fortunate to call this house our home.

The Bold crew built our custom home for us 10 years ago. This was the first house our family had ever built and they were great to work with through the whole process.

When it was time to build our modern dream home, we had the opportunity to meet with some of the Triangle's most creative architects and finest builders. After working closely with Phillip Szostak to design our home, we entrusted our project to Chris and Jason at Bold Construction. The Bold team took on the complex project and transformed a steep, rocky hillside into our modern masterpiece. From helping us with custom selections and high-quality finishes to value engineering and accommodating multiple unique requests, they did an exceptional job in bringing our project to life. We are thrilled with their precision execution and feel blessed to have worked with the Bold team.

Bold Construction did an outstanding job on our top to bottom remodel, turning our recently purchased house that was built in the early 90s from one that had little curb appeal to one that people go out of their way to drive by. The interior result has been equally impressive as visitors to our house, especially those that had been inside pre-remodel, are stunned by the transformation and the word "wow" is used frequently. As someone who is experienced in corporate/industrial construction I have high expectations for the contractors that I pick, I don't expect perfection but I do expect good communication, responsiveness, a commitment to quality and willingness to address issues when they occur. Bold checked the box in all those area. Bold also did a great job managing the subs during some pretty challenging times with pandemic ramping up and starting to affect raw material lead times. Very pleased and highly recommend Bold!

If your marriage can survive building a house, then you have a great marriage. If your builder builds an amazingly well-built house that impresses you engineer friends, AND you are still friends with your builders afterwards, then you have hit the jackpot. Not only did we end up with the house of our dreams, we have a team that is in for the long haul. These guys will show up in the middle of the night to help with anything we need, literally. Even after we closed the project and everything was finished, the Bold team answered their phones at 11:00 at night and sent help for something I screwed up. It doesn’t get any better than that. If you are looking to build, look no further. You won’t find a better team.

We have worked with Bold Construction for many years now. They are always professional and great to work with! The homes are great quality and beautifully built. We would highly recommend this company for your next build or remodel!

We contracted Bold to build a small commercial project. Bold delivered our project on time and within budget. Jason was highly responsive and I enjoyed working with him. Their team added considerable value to the project through considerable recommendations for products and slight design enhancement. I highly recommend Bold and look forward to hiring them again in the future.

I have had the pleasure of working with Bold Construction over the past year-and-a-half on the residential side of their business. I am completely blown away by their professional and personal attention to every facet of home construction. I work with everyone there (the owners, designers, job supervisors, the crew building the houses, and office managers) and it's amazing to see such consistency of knowledge, involvement, coordination, and positive attitudes from everyone. It has been a wonderful experience to date, especially seeing happy home-owners upon a job completion.

Bold Construction goes over and beyond to ensure that their homes are of the most excellent quality. The team is great to work with, from the beginning of the design process to the end of construction. They are an enthusiastic and well organized team. As an architect I have had the pleasure of working with them on Custom Homes in the triangle.

Spectacular experience. And Bold is very aware of delivering both an exceptional product and exceptional experience. Bold build our dream home. Spoiler alert, it was finished on time. From beginning to end, they gave us the freedom to design what we wanted, while keeping us on the rails and in budget. Problems were taken care of quickly and efficiently, with much welcome responsibility. Months after completion, they still dealt with anything which came up. And the house is exceptional. Owners Jason and Chris, and the entire Bold team, are personable, accomplished, and they made our home building experience fun. No small task. You couldn't make a better choice to build a new home. But don't let them read this. We have to keep them humble.

This was the second home built for me by Bold Construction. They are easy to work with and they genuinely care about customer satisfaction. Their ability to come in on budget and on time is noteworthy. They are flexible and engaged when finding solutions is required. High integrity.

This is the fourth house we have built and the way Bold has structured their company made this a very easy process. Excellent result.

In the last two years we have used Bold Construction to build two separate structures adjacent to our main home. Both have turned out functionally and aesthetically pleasing in addition to being on time and on budget. They are professional, easy to work with and responsive; qualities which are cherished in the world of home construction. They were recommended to us by a neighbor for their good work and service and we now recommend them as well. We intend to use Bold in the future as more projects arise.

They are taking care of one of my customers I’m a mortgage banker. They take care of all my customers who are building a custom built and looking for perfection this is the perfect company To build a large custom home

I am a realtor in town and Bold Construction are my No 1 to go to builder due to their knowledge, vision passion and professionalism for my clients projects. (They have made me look good!) They have built several wonderful homes for my clients. Every professional working at Bold Construction has a great attitude, has expertise in their field, and they are so pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend Bold Construction to anyone looking for a beautiful, timely, and on budget project! I look forward to sending all many more clients their way!

Team Bold is top notch. Good people + good products + good practices = Good Business. Wish there were more builders like them. They are a pleasure to work with.

I have worked with Bold for several years. They are great to deal with and are very professional. There excellence shows in the amount of growth they have had the last couple of years.

The BOLD team truly is remarkable. Great attention to detail, always responsive and flexible, and a complete pleasure to work with!

We built our custom 5 bedroom home with Bold and they exceeded all of our expectations. It's our dream home and we absolutely love it. The house was delivered on time and we were able to select every single aspect of the house to make it uniquely ours. They accommodated all of our specific needs and requests. The best part was their flexibility and they were just extremely easy to work with.

We had such a great experience that we have used Bold Construction to build our new home. It was when I was looking for an ideal lot for building a new home in my current community that I met Mr. Dell, the president of Bold Construction. After having had a short talk, I felt that he was such a reliable people whom I could trust in one year ago. Now, a year later I have my beautiful new home built up by them, I feel that I was so lucky that I met him and contracted the project with them. In the planning phase, they patiently led us and incorporated our desires and wishes with many of their own professional ideas. They have allowed us to modify the home design many times until we are 100% satisfied. The project started on time and was completed in the time frame as originally planned. During the construction process, it was smooth from the start to finish and we couldn't be happier with the results. Actually, a few small mistakes did happen, but they were always available to answer questions, discuss any of our concerns, and corrected all mistake promptly without extra cost. In addition, they went beyond their responsibility in several situations. For example, we changed our exterior wall color three times. The first time, they applied stucco on the exterior wall to the half way using a color chosen by ourselves, but we did not like it when we saw it on the wall since the color looked different on the actual wall compared with that on the paper strips. They give us second chance to have chosen another stucco color. Unfortunately, we did not like it again when they completed the stucco work for the whole home. They were so kind to let us choose another color and painted the whole home at last using the third color we truly liked, without any extra cost! They also give us opportunity to meet regularly to review the expenses together. Due to their regular and timely accurate accounting, they made me aware of cost promptly and keeping me informed and under budget. All their employees and contractors were very professional, kind, courteous and helpful. We now have a beautiful new home which we dreamed of and very proud of. From our experience, we truly believe that Bold Construction is professional, trustworthy and very reliable. We will highly recommend Bold Construction to anyone building a new home without any reservation.

Building a house from scratch can be daunting and we had our challenges!. But, using boating analogies: Having Jason as the Captain , Beau as his First Mate and Anna as the Cruise Director, it was smooth sailing! I found the best builder and team and thankfully, since I am a very busy person, all I had to do is pick them! This wasn't my first house that I have built from the ground up, so I have dealt with other builders, and BOLD is at the top of my list of The Best!

As a member of the Governors Club Custom Home Team, Bold Construction has made dreams come true for many GC residents. Always a treat to see what they create!

Bold Construction added a garage and trellis to our existing home. The workmanship and the attention to detail were excellent. The project was late because of weather related issues in the fall but the final product both met and exceeded our expectations. Bold is a conscientious builder who takes customer satisfaction seriously. They care about the quality of their work and it shows in the final product.

Chris and Jason are excellent to work with. Chris is extremely efficient and prompt with his communication. Bold is helping our local charter school upfit a current building as our school continues to grow as well as consulting with us on a longer term building project for our permanent location. They are mindful of cost and client outcomes. Would definitely work with them again.

Jason Dell and his team are a top-notch group of builders that have been great to work with. They are efficient, knowledgeable, and great at keeping a constant flow of communication. When it comes to custom homes they have great insight and ideas, and know how to provide a high quality product that meets and exceeds customer expectations while managing/controlling costs effectively throughout the design-build process. We have worked with Bold Construction on many custom home projects and look forward to many more.

We have worked with Bold on several projects over the past few years- from whole houses to single bath remodels. All involved with Bold are professional and organized. Bold listens their customers and always put them first and its always a pleasure being a part of their projects.

Such a wonderful builder! Great group of employees, organized, attention to every detail and superior quality. Would recommend them to everyone!

Very professional company to work with... all BOLD associates have a work ethic that keeps the customer's wants & needs in the forefront of each project. This is a must when working on any custom home project. They are very reputable throughout the Triangle Region and specifically the Chapel Hill area.

I used Bold for two jobs. One was a substantial Bath, Kitchen, Den renovation. The other was a kitchen remodel. They did high quality work on both jobs. Their staff is expert, easy to work with and very helpful with suggestions. They have a small job supervisor which is helpful, because he is available even when they are busy with larger jobs. Job changes were handled readily with just email confirmations. I will use them for future work.

Nice people to work with, that may sound like an odd first comment but when working with builders this is HUGELY important. The directors Jason Dell and Chris Ehrenfeld are actively involved in the projects from design to completion.

From start to finish, Bold Construction provided expert advice, superior execution, and second to none customer service regarding the project. Would recommend them to anyone and everyone! Thanks, BOLD!

It has been a great pleasure to work with Chris and Jason on two of our home remodels. They helped us add both a garage and an outdoor kitchen. The project was handled professionally, timely and with attention to detail. The additions have added value to our home both from resale potential and for our own pleasure. We plan to build in the future and are looking forward to working with them on our next project.

We have chosen Bold Construction to build our dream house. After interviewing numerous builders we ultimately choose Bold Construction due to their knowledge and vision for our project. After working with them since March 2015 we are so happy with the results, and we are looking forward to moving into our new house soon! Every professional working at Bold Construction has a great attitude, has expertise in their field, and they are so pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend Bold Construction to anyone looking for a beautiful, timely, and on budget project!
