I called about cabinet refinishing. Although they do mostly full custom cabinet installs, the guy was super helpful and friendly. He immediately gave me three contacts to local sources who can help me with all my small remodel needs. Based on that customer service, I recommend.

I work at a local countertop company here in Greenville. HGI & I share the same customers often including a very busy high end custom home builder. Tim Howard and HGI are the place to go if your looking for cabinets built to last. HGI sets the bar at a new high for local cabinet makers. Call Upstate Granite Solutions if you ever need a direct referral.

I would highly recommend HGI Cabinetry for custom cabinet design and installation. Tim Howard and his team demonstrated a high level of expertise, creativity, and professionalism in designing the cabinets, custom range hood, fireplace mantel, and entertainment center in my new home. I give them a five-star rating and I would definitely use them again for any custom job.
