In Feb 2015, Rob partnered up with the owner of Tischlerei Cabinet co. We decided to split off from Kitchens Plus and be the provider of; Cabinets, Countertops, Appliances & Hardware, while leaving Kitchens Plus as the Remodel Company.
We have built a new modern showroom for both companies. Kitchens Plus and HCCD are located in the same new location in the Marketplace and work hand in hand to complete remodel projects for clients. The two companies will still provide the seamless operation everyone has come to know.
Our Design / Sales group will provide full service Design and project management, whether it be just a cabinet project or a complete remodel.
High Country now is providing service to the Glenwood to Aspen corridor with our Designer in Glenwood.
Rob Hall – Partner
Rob has lived in the Vail valley since 1983. I had a foreign car repair shop until 1990 when I decided to sell out in 1990. We had just remodeled our East Vail home and it was on the Vail Home Tour. I was looking for a new career and at the time my girlfriend had a Kitchen Cabinet shop in Chicago. She suggested that I should do cabinets in Vail. It sounded pretty good to me so I started calling on all the builders I knew from the Car shop. I got some rejections but it didn’t take long to get a few jobs going.
It was a new adventure for me, but not really far from taking apart a car to taking apart a kitchens and putting them back together.
In 1996 I opened Rob Halls Kitchens Plus. Since then we have grown into a 3.5 Million dollar organization. We now offer design service, cabinets, countertops, remodel of any kitchen, bath or home.
We have survived the depression and have recently moved into a new location in the same building, in a larger and more modern space.
I have recently partnered up with the owner of Tischlerei Cabinet Co, Olaf Gerhardt, whom I have known for 17 years. We have purchased cabinets from Tischlerei since 1998. It has been a successful relationship and now Olaf has become a partner in High Country Cabinetry & Design.
