Jimmy and Mark were here when promised and did a great job making sure the boilers on our property weathered Helene intact and functional. I appreciate the peace of mind they’ve given me when it turns cold and I turn on my heat.

Mike is absolutely the man! He is always early, always on point with industry knowledge and accessing the problem. Every piece of crucial equipment we have had serviced by Mike has been quick to diagnose and repair the problem that other contractors spent days not fixing with a large bill associated but no repair.

I am extremely satisfied with the work and professionalism that Bolton Plumbing did on replacing my water heater and installing two service water lines through my foundation wall. Mike Levine, Nick and Trainee Spencer did excellent work, cleaned up after the job, engaged me politely and exceeded my expectations. Mike had the experience and demeanor to lead, Nick was an excellent journeyman and Spencer was an engaged and energetic trainee that showed initiative and ambition.
Bolton initially responded to my request within an hour of my call to set up an estimate, Joel came out and did inspection of the problems with an estimate the same day. Work scheduled within two weeks and ample communication with arrival times and courtesy calls by crew the day of work.
I hadn’t seen that level of professionalism in years.
I’d highly recommend this company for any plumbing needs. 5 Star!

Today Michael Shelton performed the first maintenance service on my 2+ year old gas-fired tankless hot water heater. As I’ve seen before with Michael he handled the job expertly and completed the job quickly. What I appreciate most about his work is his attention to detail and that he treats my projects the same way he would if he were working on his own equipment. Finally, he makes serious efforts to leave the work area the way he found it or better.

Very pleased with Michael’s work.

JW Flaherty

The plumber came out and found the problem after quite the investigation. Most people would have given up, but he was super thorough and thankfully fixed the problem before it created a huge issue under the house!

In 1923, at the request of developers Thomas Bland and Broadus Griffin, William E. Bolton Sr. left the Atlantic Coastline Railroad of Rocky Mount to oversee construction of the mechanical system for Raleigh’s first high-rise hotel, the Sir Walter Raleigh Hotel.

The Bolton Company endured the Great Depression and continued to grow steadily through the 1930s. W.E. Bolton Sr. leased an office and shop building on the corner of West Martin and Harrington Streets until the outbreak of World War II. Shortages caused by the war reduced sales and forced Bolton to operate his business out of his home.

After six years of service in the armed forces—much of it spent as an aircraft mechanic aboard the USS Yorktown—and upon completing his degree at North Carolina State College, William E. Bolton Jr. joined his father in the family business. In 1946, with just three employees, they opened a new office at 519 West North Street. The W.E. Bolton Company became an integral part of Raleigh’s remarkable post-war expansion, continuing to serve residential customers while steadily growing its presence in the commercial market. It was during this time that William Bolton Jr. began installing and servicing refrigeration equipment for local dairies.

In 1963, the company received its single largest project to date when it was awarded the contract for heating and cooling the new North Carolina State Legislative Building. Work on the project coincided with the initiation of a decade-long move to broaden operations to include all mechanical trades (plumbing, heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, ventilation, industrial piping, utility, and electrical construction).

A few of Bolton’s projects during this period included Martin County Hospital in Williamston, NC; North Carolina Archives & History Building; North Carolina Department of Administration Building; Century Station Post Office Renovations; and the D. H. Hill Library at NCSU.

This diversification promoted a change in the company name to Bolton Corp. in 1970. Throughout the 1970s, Bolton Corp. grew in size and complexity, undertaking projects such as Rex Hospital, the School of Veterinary Medicine at NCSU, the Radisson Hotel, the Raleigh Civic Center renovation, the One Hanover Square Office, UCB Plaza, and the American Airlines Hub at RDU.

Verne Moser’s son, David Moser, and son-in-law, John Harrower, both joined the Moser Company in 1945. By 1972 Mike Moser, Scott Harrower and Steve Harrower, all grandsons of Verne and the third generation, became actively involved with the family business. Many former Moser Inc. employees still work at Bolton’s Asheville Office, including Steve Harrower, VP.

In 2002, Bill Bolton established W.E. Bolton Construction and Service, LLC in Raleigh. Soon several large projects were awarded to the new company, including projects at North Carolina State University, Duke University, and the Federal Correctional Institute in Butner.
