Construction & Renovations By RLI, LLC

I contracted with RLI construction and renovations with Steve Holley as a construction manager, managing my home renovation project. He successfully coordinated a 3,400 unfinished basement space into pool table room with TV surround sound system, a state of the art 12 seat home theater room, theater room was sound insulated to retain all sound within theater during viewing operations, entertainment space including a custom bar (beverage & wine cooler, ice maker, dish washer, wine cellar, beer taps, TV, and custom cabinets), 2 full baths, guest suite (walk in closet, kitchenette, bedroom, TV sitting area), and work shop. He managed all yard renovation projects including an outdoor kitchen, weather proofing the deck, 1,600 square foot tile pool deck, hot tub installation, 41ft x 26ft pool installation (2-6ft waterfalls, 3- water spouts and 3-fire pots which are all remote controlled, and an outdoor TV viewing area) and all his crew’s carpentry work was the highest of quality with high end finishes and met all my expectations. Steve worked with and coordinated all subcontractor work to create outstanding project that was completed on schedule and within budget. His organizational skills provided the expertise required to determine my needs by listening to and reviewing my requirements throughout the project. He was very knowledgeable about all construction materials and various options to improve layout of space. He was responsible for paying all subcontractors and his monthly invoices were accurate based on the status of completed activities. Steve was very responsive and timely to my phone calls and questions I had during the project. I would recommend RLI construction and renovations, Steve Holley’s Company, to manage any size construction and renovation project you may have whether it be large or small. His team of subcontractors did an outstanding job meeting all my expectations. Please contact for a reference if you have any questions regarding the work that was performed on my property by Steve Holley.

We were looking for solutions to extend our patio. There were structural, design and aesthetic options to consider. We sought solutions from three local contractors. Steve's patience and active listening along with his extensive experience brought solutions that got us excited. His vision for the completed project provided us with exactly what we were looking for. His crew worked through adverse weather conditions and around the holiday schedule. They tolerated our constant questions and demonstrated skilled craftsmanship. Steve was on the job site virtually every day during the project to ensure quality work throughout. His crew completed the work in five weeks, which was a full week ahead of schedule. We are thrilled with the finished product. Steve is great to work with and we highly recommend him and his crew.

Steve Holley and his company have completed three remodel projects for our homes in the last 20 years. Two were large, permanent sunroom additions, and the most recent in 2013 was an expansion and complete remodel of our kitchen, along with the addition of a screened porch. For each of these projects, we have been extremely satisfied not only with the appearance and functionality of the rooms after construction, but also with the workmanship and the attention to details that they demonstrate throughout construction. Each of these remodel projects has received frequent compliments from our extended family and the guests we have in our home. Something that distinguishes Steve’s company from those we have seen other homeowners use is the care they exert in minimizing impact to the property and house while they are doing the remodeling. They leave little evidence of a construction project taking place. His workers always talked with us to tell us what was being done each day, and make sure it did not impact us. Steve monitored the projects frequently to make sure the workmanship meets his standards. On each of these three projects, there were no “surprises” of additional costs or extras that we did not ask for, and we always got a finished work that exceeded our expectations. In summary, every project has been a pleasing experience with a fantastic outcome. Our recommendation for Steve Holley and his company is without any reservation or qualifiers. Completely satisfied!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK, David Sellers

Steve and his employees did an excellent job. The quality of work was outstanding and any change or touch up was done without question. Steve has been in the business for a very long time (40+ yrs) and being 'old school' still believes the client should be happy with the work performed. The siding and trim work performed on the 40 year old house was performed by craftsmen like Dennis, who have been in the business along time, actually care and take the time to get it right. It was refreshing to work with Steve and RLI versus other so called contractors who take short cuts and don't ever deliver.

Steve (owner/operator of RLI) is awesome! Extremely professional and has employees that bust their butts to get the projects done in a timely manner and with excellent workmanship! We had other contractors who would take 4x the time (charging us by the hour of course) to do the same job. RLI came in and banged out the work in no time w/ great results!

Mr. Steve Holley is the owner of this business. If you call for an estimate on the work you need he will be the person that contacts you and come out to do the estimate. Mr. Holley is a very knowledgeable professional and also a very personable person to speak with. You tell him what you want and he figures out a way to give you just that. He will also give it to you at a fair price. We had overhangs installed on our gable ends to give us some shading on the windows on those sides of the house. It improved the looks and functionality of our home tremendously. His work crew are professional and respectful of your property. When we need home construction again, I will go to RLI first.
