HIGH PRAISE FOR HIGH COUNTRY HOME IMPROVEMENT
"We have used High Country Home Improvement for our last two projects…new stairs/railings and a completely new kitchen with new flooring throughout the main floor. Rob Gabriel is the owner. He is a good communicator, has a good group of workers who are reliable and do good work. Rob made sure we where happy with the work and if any issues came up, he fixed them. We recommend High Country Home Improvement."

"High Country did a terrific job transforming our 1979 bi-level into a comfortable, livable and modern space. Rob and his team provided helpful design guidance through the duration of the total house remodel, helping us in the selection of materials and finishes that made our home’s interior shine. We felt that, during the project, the project team was always our advocate, providing quality workmanship and value."

"Rob and his team at High Country Home Improvements did an amazing job on transforming my kitchen and home!! Rob was responsive, easy to work with and kept us informed and involved during the entire process. His team was kind and considerate and Darren has a great eye for detail. The process was, for the most part, on time and budget, with only slight issues along the way, partly due to our adding to the project. I have recommended Rob to many people and I have friends and family who have been "Wowed" by the transformation."

"Three years ago we had Rob's company do a bathroom remodel and we were very satisfied with the finished product. This year we asked him back for a complete kitchen remodel. We couldn't be happier. As with all remodels of a 40 + year old home, you expect some surprises and unforeseen issues, and we had them. Rob and his team handled every challenge professionally and kept to the schedule. We felt like we could always trust Rob and his team to get it right. Rob is very helpful in product selection as well. Great job guys!"

We bought our second house knowing we wanted Rob and his team do gut and rebuild the most of the first floor. I was as pleased this time. His crew is trustworthy, professional, and provides high quality work. If we ever needed work done again I would call Rob in an instant."

"Can't recommend Rob and his fantastic crew enough. They completely gutted and remodeled our entire kitchen, did a beautiful wood floor install in the living room and upstairs bedrooms, and remodeled our master bedroom and master bath. Rob and his guys also have a good eye for design, and really know how to just "make it pretty" at the end of the day. Great communicator, always kept us up to date with what was happening with the project, what steps were next, what supplies we needed to pick up or critical design choices on our end. Would definitely recommend and use them again for a couple other home remodel projects we still have up our sleeve!"

"Overall the remodel went very well and the finished space is better than we hoped. The staff of High Country Home Improvement, and the plumbing and electrical subs were efficient, skilled, and respectful. From demolition, through framing, drywall, tile, painting and finish carpentry High Country's (Kyle, Cody, Brandon efforts were very good. The project had some unplanned challenges, which were handled promptly and without argument. Even a neighbor commented on the politeness of the workers."

Project: Basement Finish
"We contacted High Country Home Improvement through Home Advisor 2 years ago. Rob met with us, thoughtfully and thoroughly reviewed the demolition of our 1970's bathroom. My husband and myself are good judges of character and, from the get go, we knew this is the man we would want to work with. He provided a cost estimate quite a bit under our expectation and also a start and end date. The draw system works exceptionally well in that discussion and possible changes are occurring along the way. Rob was wonderful to work with. He stopped by daily and he required more of his crew than we did. His expectations and desire for perfection can be un-nerving. But speaking of the crew for High Country Home Improvements:::you'll not get a more honest, pleasant, likable, competent, TIMELY, courteous bunch of guys. Each in their own right could own and operate their own business. Our bathroom is beautiful!!! It was completed on time with a small overage due to 1970 rusted pipes between floor and basement ceiling. Well, to say the least, we have moved on to the kitchen this year. Total gut job and OMG, it's a work of art. Once again, the cost was not nearly what our neighbors' have spent (yes we do share with them) and our time frame was 1/2 of their inconvenience. We were steered in the right direction by Rob for cabinets, granite, etc. The crew would sit in front of the house 5 min to 8am, waiting. Due to Rob and his crew our 1970's house is getting a much needed face lift and, as Rob knows, we have a few other projects on the horizon. Wish I could upload pictures. You wouldn't believe the transformation."

"I had the opportunity to work from home several days during our (built from scratch) master bathroom and i was impressed by the friendliness, professionalism and quality work from every employee and contractor. One tile guy said he loved his job and had worked for High Country Home Improvements for years. Rob (owner) is responsive and has a great sense of humor. As they always say, you get what you pay for. The initial bid was detailed and accurate. Although higher than some other bids the quality of the work is worth the small incremental cost."

"We couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome of engaging Rob and High Country Home improvement. This project was our first major renovation. We had Rob and team completely redo our master bathroom, guest bathroom, and Jack&Jill bathroom. His estimates (time & $) and referrals to product specialists (to find tile, pick out cabinets, etc) were accurate and reasonable. Rob's team of Darin and Greg were friendly, polite, and did great work. They were very good at communicating with us and gathering information along the way to ensure a successful project. I intend to use High Country Home Improvement for any future projects."

When minor issues arose, they were remedied promptly and fairly. We will absolutely be looking to hire Rob and his team again for our future home improvement needs. The job recently completed in March 2018 was an extensive whole home remodel including restoring original wood floors, an extensive redesign of a master suite, complete kitchen overhaul, two bathrooms, entryway, basement work, etc. "

"My husband and I purchased a 2200 sq ft house that needed a complete renovation along with re-configuring the kitchen and adding another bathroom. after meeting with Rob we knew immediately that he was our guy! We had met with several other contractors but none took the time like Rob did to find out what we wanted and what it would take to get there. We were comfortable with him and his crew right away. Rob was honest, dependable, and an amazing craftsman. He and his crew touched every inch of the house and turned it into a beautiful home, and we are very grateful! We would highly recommend Rob and his crew!"

"Rob and the crew did a great job transforming our home and making our vision a reality. This was a big job. We totally remodeled a kitchen/dining room/living room level including removing walls and installing a support beam. We remodeled a family room. We replaced the base boards and door frames throughout the house. We even had them build a new garage. While the job took a bit longer than we had hoped, they handled all of the unexpected twists and turns really well. They have also answered all of our calls for minor repairs and adjustments since the job was officially finished."

"My husband and I remodeled our 1970’s ranch style home. We cannot even describe how pleased we are with the outcome. From the walk in closet, to the beautiful kitchen, to the cozy family room. Rob and his crew are nothing but professional. They are meticulous about their work. Rob was easy to get ahold of, has the knowledge to answer all our questions and give recommendations. He kept us within our budget and immediately informed us if something was going to cost more and offered alternatives to make it work. We both work in law enforcement and yet we were very comfortable having everyone of them in our home; most times they were by themselves with our three dogs. Even the dogs had to say hello to them when they showed up in the morning. We highly recommend High Country Home Improvement."

"We contracted Rob and his team to completely overhaul our outdated 1980's town home. The project lasted approximately eight weeks. Rob provided a detailed bid explaining the cost of the project, which was very reasonable. He also provided sound advise on where to upgrade fixtures, and found ways for us to save money so that we could maximize our budget. I appreciate that Rob and his team were very accommodating and flexible as our family lived in the house during the entire project. Rob visited the site almost daily to ensure the quality of work was to the highest standard. I appreciate that his team was not only experienced in many technical areas, but they were always friendly and truly seemed to enjoy their work. They also did a detailed clean up every day to ensure they were leaving the house to our satisfaction. The only opportunity was that there were a couple of days that Rob had to adjust scheduling, but he clearly communicated the issue and explained the reason. In a market in which skilled labor is at a premium, Rob does a great job vetting out his workforce to ensure he hires quality people that are skilled and trustworthy. It has been three months since the completion of our project, and we are still incredibly pleased with the workmanship Rob and his team provided."

"Rob and his crew made our dream of a new kitchen in our very old house a reality. We not only had to replace flooring, down to leveling the subfloor on a concrete, very unlevel floor, but reframe the walls over cinder block walls, re wire including new electrical service, and change plumbing to accommodate our new kitchen. Rob worked with several other craftsmen to make this happen. I would recommend Rob and high country to anyone considering a kitchen or bath remodel."

"Rob gave us a written itemized estimate (emailed) and was excellent at explaining questions we had and where to buy tile, fixtures, etc. Greg was meticulous about all parts of the install, tile, and toilet, fixtures and lighting. He gave us some great ideas for placement of items. Greg was on time, cleaned up every day at the end of the day, and he was as neat as possible with the material. He had a great work ethic and energy. He really loved his work. He was a pleasure to have in the house for 2 and a half weeks! Rob was consistent about checking up with us in person every day or two, and was always available for questions and for checking up on progress. We are extremely happy with the new shower. Very reliable and honest."

"We had a great experience with Rob and his crew. They saved our home remodel from a "handyman" disaster before it was too late! We had been searching for a couple months for a contractor who could take down the wall between the kitchen and living room and install a support beam in the attic according to an engineer's drawings. We finally found High Country Home Improvement through Home Advisor and were so happy with the professional know how and, no-nonsense approach to our project. They came with a large crew and executed the plan with military precision. And were in and out in a day and a half. After it was over and we inspected the results with Rob we asked him to look at some other remodel work going on in the house. Rob showed us the shoddy nature of the work and explained to us in what way it was not up to code and would never pass inspection. Mortified and about 6k out of pocket we asked Rob to give us a proposal to redo the work and finish the rest of the remodel. From the beginning Rob was very fair and always on top of the project. We are very happy with the results and would highly recommend Rob and his crew. We look forward to doing work with them again in the future on some bathroom remodels!"

"We have had the boys here at our home for nearly 4 months. It was a major remodel from a basement refinish, adding a bathroom, gutting and updating our kitchen, a complete makeover of master bathroom/closet area, creating an office to moving a patio door over for better Feng Shui. I think only 3 rooms were left untouched. Rob was wonderful in coming out and meeting with me multiple times prior to my hiring him. I had interviewed 7 other contractors and finally found Rob. I was most comfortable with Rob because he seemed to understand my vision and his price was reasonable. He provided all necessary paperwork that I had requested before I signed the contract. One of the perks for me was that Rob allowed me to do my own shopping on the finishing details so it helped us stay within budget for the project. Of course we ran into a few hick ups with sub contractors but Rob did everything he could to make things right. Main thing is he was always open and honest with us when things were not perfect and we always reached a solution. We love his crew! Can't tell you how many times Jeremy has helped my husband with advice and the creative thinking that made things work when multiple people have told me it can't be done. He has been doing this job for a long time and it shows. Evan has always been wonderful and would not hesitate to stop and answer any questions we had. When he was with us, he did quality work. Bob is new to the team but his tile work is beautiful and it shows the level of his experience. Needless to say, we would hire them again in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend High Country Home Improvement for any remodel job."

He was very accepting of our doing as much of our project as we could ourselves. I would (and have) highly recommend him."

"Rather than buying brand new, we decided to invest in the home we love and currently live in. It was by far as large as of an investment as we could have made aside from purchasing new. We were a bit scared about the process of hiring someone and getting work done on our house as we knew it was extensive and we would likely have to move out for a bit. We have two young kiddos so any large investment it scary. Rob and his crew are amazing. Hands down, this was the very best experience we could ever have asked for. Rob walked us through every step. He is a craftsman, a professional and bar none to anyone else we spoke to. He understood the commitment we were making and committed the same in return. Rob and his staff (not subcontracted) removed multiple rooms of popcorn ceiling, fully remodeled our kitchen which included a complete transformation, remodeled a small bathroom, and new hardwood floors throughout with a difficult color request has made our home look better than any new house we could have chosen. Not to mention Evan did a tile job in our laundry/hallway that many people would just flat out refused to do; we could not have asked for a more amazing experience! Anything we ever need done in the future, we know who we will turn to. He also splits up the payments which means that they aren’t using your payments to fund someone else’s project, nor using someone else’s payments to fund yours. Thanks Rob, Evan, Jeremy, Tony and hopefully we are not missing anyone because you are great!"
