About Us
Locally owned. Third-generation built.
A Brunswick County general contractor that treats your house like it’s on our own street, because it usually is.
Our Story
We build tomorrow.
Harden Construction Group Inc. is a licensed North Carolina general contractor based in Bolivia, with deep roots on Ocean Isle Beach, “this beautiful island we call home.” Owner Caleb Harden is a third-generation builder, and our team brings 40+ combined years of experience to every project.
We started out building decks and outdoor living spaces, and that’s still a big part of what we do. Over the years, clients kept asking for more: siding, windows, docks, bulkheads, kitchens, whole-house renovations, additions and new homes. Today we handle all of it, residential and commercial, under one license.
What hasn’t changed is how we work. We show up when we say we will, finish when we projected, stick to the quote, and keep you informed the whole way.

Reviews
In our clients’ words.
We had the decks on the back of our house replaced. The crew was really good, overcoming some unforeseen issues and really did a nice job. I was impressed with the communication from Caleb, keeping us up to date on all the pre-job stuff (drawings, permits, etc.) and during the job too. His design ideas were helpful and everything was executed beautifully. They left the jobsite cleaner than they found it!
“Harden Construction Group did ours! Reliable, reasonable, responsive and very professional. Ask for Caleb.”
“Harden Construction Group – highly recommended (they have done several jobs for us).”
“These are my go to guys!”
