Testimonials

“We found Jacob and the Sensible Build team to be just what we needed, and just what we were looking for. The construction team and all subcontractors were professional in their skill sets, always polite, personable and timely, and made a real point of cleaning up at the end of each day. These points were especially important to us because we were living in the house as we were renovating. Jacob sets a great tone for every project; he’s transparent and knowledgeable at budget prep time, he’s thorough and demanding at ‘punch list/finishes’ inspection, and he keeps trades extremely well coordinated.

Ours was not a simple building project, but sprawled out over the entire house and involved demolish,renovation and major structural work at kitchen, baths, plumbing, electrical, and roof levels in a very dated old mountain home. Every wall uncovered brought new challenges, but Jacob was great in taking the worry out of the work. His integrity, honesty, and good humor carried us along to completion. We highly recommend Jacob and Sensible Build for any High Country residential project.”

“We can’t say enough about the level of professionalism and care we encountered. Personal communication, creativity, timeliness, and flexibility made our experience great!

We hired Sensible Build in 2016 to remodel a home we had just bought. We loved working Jacob; he was knowledgeable and creative. He really worked with us to get exactly what we wanted. Everything was done on schedule, and the project came in exactly on the budget Jacob gave us from the beginning.

We couldn’t have been more grateful or impressed with Sensible Build and the work they did for us. We would wholeheartedly recommend Sensible Build to anyone wanting to build or remodel.”

“Jacob and the team at Sensible Build has now completed two major renovation projects in our home. They remodeled our living room and kitchen and finished our basement. For both projects, Jacob provided a timely and accurate estimate. Throughout the estimate and construction periods, Jacob communicated regularly regarding costs, timelines, and any changes that needed to occur. This led to relatively stress-free experiences both times. Even when we made small changes mid-project, Jacob was able to adapt and accommodate. All employees we encountered were polite and professional. We felt like everyone working on our projects took pride in their craft and wanted to leave our house better than they found it. I have recommended Sensible Build to my family and friends and we plan to use them again for our next round of projects.”

“I have used Jacob as my contractor for quite a few years. In that time, he and his crew at Sensible Build have done a bath remodel at a primary residence, done a complete gut and overhaul of 3 rental properties, put on a metal roof on a vacation rental, and completed a large remodel and master suite addition on my current home. Every time, his work has been very skilled, and he and his subs have stayed on schedule, and even on the most recent project came in below budget. Jacob is professional and friendly in his dealings with customers, and he returns calls quickly and shows up to meet you when he says he will! Because of his sense of excellence, and pride in what he does, I have referred to him many of my real estate clients, and have shared his name around all my personal and real estate circles.”
