CGI Construction in Highland, CA

CGI Construction in Highland, CA | Hampton Contractors

We provide independent CGI cabinet and countertop service across Highland, from full kitchen remodels to refacing and hardware upgrades. The one thing that makes our CGI work different here: we know the mid-century tract homes in this city well enough to spot the hidden roof and attic problems that stall permits before a single cabinet comes out. We’re the crew that fixes the kitchen and flags the wood-shake roof in the same walkthrough. Call (833) 467-4075 for a free estimate.

Why Highland Residents Choose Us for CGI Service

CGI cabinets turn up constantly in Highland kitchens, especially in the 1950s through 1970s tract homes that line the streets off Baseline and Greenspot Road. We’ve spent years learning how their RTA shaker lines, plywood-box series, and door-and-drawer front programs actually behave after a decade or two of inland heat. Brent Calloway, our owner, started framing houses in the High Desert when most of this area was still open land, and he’s the first to tell you that a cabinet is only as good as the wall behind it and the roof above it. When Highland homeowners call us about peeling thermofoil doors or sagging box bottoms, we don’t just quote a swap. We look at how the house itself is contributing to the problem. That’s the difference between a cabinet installer and a Highland General Contractor who happens to know CGI product lines inside and out.

Common CGI Construction Problems We Solve in Highland

• Thermofoil and laminate peeling on sun-facing walls. Highland’s inland summer sun is relentless, and south- and west-facing kitchens can push cabinet-face temperatures far past what entry-level thermofoil skins handle. The doors blister, then peel. We see it most in homes with unshaded kitchen windows along Van Leuven Street and the older tracts near San Manuel.
• Particleboard box bottoms sagging under heavy loads. Lower-cost CGI RTA lines use particleboard or MDF box construction. Years of cast-iron skillets and stacked cookware eventually bow those bases, especially in kitchens without real ventilation. We replace the boxes and re-use sound doors where it makes financial sense.
• Swollen toe kicks and box edges at the floor line. Foothill-adjacent Highland homes with unvented attics trap moisture from winter rain cycles. That damp air works its way down into the kitchen, and cabinet bases absorb it. You’ll see swelling right at the toe kick, often before it reaches the door faces.
• Drawer glides and hinges that loosen and bind. Dry summers followed by wet winters cycle the wood in Highland homes. Cabinets shift, walls move, and entry CGI hardware starts to bind. Out-of-square mid-century framing makes it worse. We re-hang, re-square, and often upgrade to full-extension aftermarket glides that hold their adjustment.
• Out-of-square walls making new cabinet runs look off. Half the tract homes in Highland were framed before laser levels existed. When we install new CGI cabinet runs, we scribe and shim to the wall as it actually is, not as the drawings say it should be. That’s the only way a finished run looks right in a 1964 rancher.

CGI Service in Highland: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment

Here’s the thing most kitchen remodelers in San Bernardino won’t tell a Highland homeowner until the project is already underway: the real gate on your remodel often has nothing to do with cabinets. Highland sits at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains in a high-fire-severity zone, and the mid-century tract homes here were built decades before today’s wildfire and seismic codes existed. When we pull a CGI kitchen for an upgrade, the inspector isn’t walking past an original wood-shake roof or an unvented attic. Those conditions fail ember-resistance and ventilation requirements, and the permit stalls until they’re corrected. So before we order one new CGI door front for your CGI in Redlands or Highland project, we check what’s above the kitchen. If the roof is original shake, we’ll tell you. If the attic needs venting, we’ll write that into the scope. Brent Calloway has worked construction in the High Desert since he was eighteen, and he’s seen too many Highland remodels die at inspection over a roof that should have been flagged on day one. Good work doesn’t need a disclaimer.

CGI Models & Products We Service in Highland

Our CGI sales & service work covers the product lines that actually landed in Highland kitchens over the past few decades. We install and reface CGI Ready-to-Assemble shaker and flat-slab cabinets, the all-wood plywood-box shaker series, and CGI quartz or granite countertop programs paired with their cabinet lines. When a homeowner wants a color and profile match preserved, we use CGI OEM doors, drawer fronts, and hardware. When the OEM hardware is the weak link, we switch to quality aftermarket hinges and full-extension glides. For solid-box CGI cabinets we reface and re-hinge before recommending replacement. On swollen particleboard boxes, replacement is usually the cheaper long-run call, and we’ll say so plainly.
