“It has been my honor to have had Rich Denny as a dedicated, hard-working employee for more than twenty five years. During his years with us, Rich has always found a way to, diplomatically and professionally, approach any issues that arose, working with the client to resolve them effectively. His work ethic is beyond reproach and it is a pleasure to know him. Though I wish he was still working with us, I know Rich will succeed in his new venture at Inclign, and we wish him all the best.”

Here is a residential custom home of a prominent Seattleite built by Charter Construction. I enjoyed being the framing foreman for High Country Contractors hired by Charter. The architect firm was Prentiss Balance Wickline. Both Charter & PBW Architects are top tier companies to work with.

“Rich was the project manager from High Country Contractors who we worked with during the construction of 52 Brooklyn, a new 37-unit apartment in the UW area.
Rich managed our project and was a very valuable part of the process. He ensured that our deadlines and requirements were met, and that we were satisfied with the project every step of the way. He was a deciding factor in the project’s successful completion. Rich was always very proactive to prevent any issues before we encountered them, and quick to respond to any concerns we had.
Thanks to his comprehensive knowledge and experience in the construction field, we were able to overcome all obstacles and complete the project in March 2017. We appreciate his work and his professionalism since he joined our project; he definitely exceeded our expectations. We would not hesitate to contact him again for future projects, and wish him well at Inclign!”

Jefferson Square Apartment becomes Elan 41
I was privileged to superintend an apartment rehabilitation project. The 7 buildings were built above commercial retail and parking garage space. Some of the challenges included; full courtyard membrane replacement, full exterior re-clad, full interior upgrades. elevated walkway resurfacing, remodel roof structures and complete re-roof. All of this while the apartment units were occupied and all public spaces below remained open for business. The successful completion of this project was reflected by the gratitude of our client.

Rich Denny, of High Country Contractors and Developers, served as my Construction Manager on a recently completed, luxury condominium project developed by my company, Lake Park Venture, LLC.
“From day one, this project presented numerous complex and unique challenges relating to its construction, stemming largely from the use of very specialized materials and their intricate integration. On top of this, I will be first to admit that I, as project owner, demanded that only the best workmanship would be acceptable.
Though given this daunting responsibility, Rich, nevertheless, rose to the occasion and always with an upbeat, “Can Do” attitude. My every expectation was met thanks to his unwavering dedication and hard work. From inception to completion, everyday was a pleasure working with Rich and High Country on my project. It is obvious that customer satisfaction is a cornerstone of their business ethics.
I’m confident anyone considering using the many services offered by High Country, and specifically those of Construction Management and Mr. Denny, will find themselves very well served. I would like to recommend them without hesitation and look forward to working with them on my next development project.”
