Overholt Contracting

We just finished a major renovation with Overholt Contracting - it consisted of reconfiguring the entire back of our house to overhaul a large living room, master bedroom and adding an en suite bathroom and walk-in closet. Because of the age of our house, unexpected things inevitably arose, and they were handled expertly. Ben Overholt was a delight to work with throughout the entire project, as were the many teams of people assigned to the specific subject areas (i.e. electricians, plumbers etc). In addition to the gorgeous living spaces that have now concluded several renovations on our 126yo home, we have a added a new friend in Ben. He puts everything he has into each phase of the work, and isn't satisfied until it's perfect. Were there minor glitches along the way? Of course ther

Working with Ben has been great! He has done an amazing job bringing our dreams into reality. All along the way he has helped us in decision making and understanding the building process. I feel like Ben has treated our home like he would his own and has shared his expertise so we can get the most out of our build as well as the building experience. Ben is great at communicating; he is always available to ask questions and checks in often to keep us up to date. I would absolutely work with Ben again and would recommend him without any reservation.

Ben at Overholt Contracting was excellent to work with from start to finish. Communication was clear, timelines were met, and the quality of work exceeded expectations. Ben was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything so there were no surprises along the way. It is clear he takes pride in his work and runs a very well organized operation. I would not hesitate to recommend Ben and Overholt Contracting to anyone looking for reliable, high quality contracting work.

We recently completed a full renovation of the first floor of our 1980s Fenwick Island beach condo, and I can’t say enough great things about working with Ben and his team. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and truly enjoyable—even with us managing the project remotely! Ben was incredibly organized and communicative. Since I don’t live locally, we relied heavily on phone calls, texts, and regular status updates—and he never missed a beat. I always felt in the loop and confident that things were moving along on schedule. His team handled the kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom renovation with such attention to detail and craftsmanship. The space has been completely transformed. A special shout-out to Emily, the designer, who was an absolute dr

We can’t say enough great things about Ben and his exceptional commitment to getting the job done right. From the very beginning, Ben guided us through the process of building our home with clear communication and an unwavering focus on detail. He not only ensured that the final result met our expectations, but also addressed every punch list item promptly and thoroughly. What sets Ben apart is his responsiveness and the fact that he genuinely cares—even after our project was complete. Over the years, he’s continued to be a trusted resource, helping us with smaller improvement projects around the house and identifying resources when outside of his scope of work. No matter the size of the job, Ben approaches each task with the same professionalism and attention to detail. We truly apprec
