Bolte Construction
Legacy and Craftsmanship

​
Bill Bolte, who began Bolte Construction in Omaha in 2003, was volunteering some of his time and skill to Habitat for Humanity some years ago, and he asked the young man who was dating his daughter Aly to come along. That young man, Geoff Amstutz, had always had a love for woodworking. Growing up in his father’s woodworking garage, he had a passion for building things, paying close attention to the detail of a vision, measuring (twice), taking pride in the work, and focusing on the project at hand.
Geoff had not seriously considered a career in construction, but the experience of working with Bill at that volunteer job resonated and kept tugging. After completing a degree in Biology at UNO, Geoff took the leap to begin working for Bolte Construction. Choosing this path revealed to Geoff his true strengths and talents. He also ended up with his wife (said girlfriend Aly) and, as of this year, the Bolte Construction company. As a nationally licensed Class B contractor, Geoff knows how important those early lessons in the garage have been. His projects have gotten bigger, but his dedication to construction has held steady over the years.
Bolte Construction specializes in full design services and remodeling projects. If you have a vision for a new kitchen, bathroom, lower-level finishing, a room addition, or any other change to make to your home, Bolte Construction can help you realize that vision in technicolor. This can be a major overhaul, but it doesn’t have to be; Bolte Construction takes on projects of all sizes.
Do you find the idea of a remodel or an addition daunting? Geoff isn’t surprised. “It can be a stressful and overwhelming idea for a homeowner, at first,” Geoff acknowledges. “This is where the professionals step in.”
Trust is at the heart of Bolte Construction. Geoff manages the project at hand from the beginning. He meets with the clients; maps out the cost analysis, budget, schedule; and sees the project through to completion. “Keeping the client aware of the process and schedule of the job is important,” he says. “Our crews have been with us for a long time, and we charge by the job, not by the hour. Continuous communication about the progress of the job, snafus, challenges…this is the most reliable way to do business. We are all rowing in the same direction, and clear communication makes it so.”
At the heart of this process are the core values of the company. These values have guided the good name of Bolte Construction, meaning that the customer can trust in the remodeling process. The company believes that construction is more than just building structures or new cabinetry. Creating these spaces means that a family will have a place to enjoy gathering, playing together, and making memories.
How do you start a project with Bolte Construction? Pick up the phone to make an appointment with Geoff, and be prepared to bring your ideas and photos to a complimentary consultation. The initial consultation is followed by a written estimate and project timeline. When everyone’s on the same page, the job is scheduled to begin.
The team from Bolte Construction knows that a family may need to occupy the home while the remodeling is being completed. “We know we are in people’s homes and are respectful of that,” Geoff notes. “We treat every project as if it were in our own home.”
This local, family-owned company takes pride in its work, its crews, its reputation, and its guarantee that the client will be happy and satisfied through the remodeling process. “My favorite part of the job is at the final walk-through, where we have matched the client’s vision and everyone is pleased,” says Geoff. Client satisfaction drives every project, and that is where clear communication plays such a keen part. “We are all cognizant that we are in someone’s home. It’s important to be respectful of that environment. We show up on time, and we clean up before we leave.”
Geoff is excited about his transition to ownership of Bolte Construction, building on years of experience, legacy, and reputation. Whether it is a modern kitchen or bathroom remodel, a lower-level finishing, or a new front door and entryway, Bolte Construction remains a first-call choice. If you value skill, honesty, and a job done right the first time, give Bolte Construction and Geoff an opportunity to help you realize your vision.
