Asher Custom Homes (formerly KBI) has been an incredible partner to work with over the past couple of years. As a timber frame supplier, we look for high-quality, meticulous builders that are focused on the quality of service and product.Thank you Edward, Ryan, and the rest of your team for your incredible works of craftsmanship. We are proud to have our timber in some of your projects & look forward to all of the collaborative efforts in the future.- Jeff Bowes, President of Canadian Timberframes

In my humble opinion, Asher Custom Homes is by far the best homebuilder in Southwest Colorado. From beginning to end, the entire Asher team went above and beyond to ensure that our project ran smoothly and efficiently -- on time and on budget. More importantly, the entire team became like family to us in the process. Edward Asher is the consummate professional who takes pride in everything he does and it shows in every aspect of the build from planning to designing to construction. Thank you to Mini, Tracy, Jason, Marsha, Will, and Craig for making this experience easy and fun. We could not be happier.

We spent 3 years looking across the US and picked Durango as the place to build our dream home. Having never had a custom home, we wanted quality, expertise, and a builder with a proven track record in the community. Asher Custom Homes addressed all 3 points from the start. We had the pleasure of being present throughout the build and saw our home take shape from the concept we laid out to the Asher design team. Our project manager and superintendent were always there to guide the build along and answered every question and concern we had - no matter how trivial they were in hindsight. The tradespeople assembled by Asher - excavators, concrete, framers, electricians, etc. - gave us quality and timely work. Each evidenced a level of goodwill and respect towards Asher that has obviously been earned over the years. In a now busy and competitive market, this is a very important factor that reassured us. A friend recently asked us, after touring our beautiful home, if we had to do it over, would we go with the same builder. Without hesitation, we both enthusiastically said yes.

Kogan did a remodel of my home and they did an incredible job. They are an honest and hardworking team. Edward, Ryan, Jason, Tracy and my entire construction team wanted to make sure I was happy from start to finish. They communicated with me about issues that came up and happily made changes that I requested as the process went along. Thank you Kogan for a job well done!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Kogan Builders to design and build our custom home. We did not know anything about Kogan when we first contacted them; we based our decision initially on their previous designs and great reviews. We also liked the fact that they were prepared to handle everything from beginning to end -- permitting, design aspects, architectural/engineering work, construction, and even furnishings. From our first phone call, however, we knew we were in good hands. Ryan took so much time to explain the entire design process in great detail. Ryan and Chris listened to us and came up with architectural plans that exceeded our expectations. We loved working with the design team to pick out all of our finishes. It was one of the areas we worried about the most when deciding whether to build a custom home, but it turned out to be one of our favorite aspects. The team often thought outside the box to come up with unique ideas based on very general thoughts that we had. Once we got to construction, Jason and his team were absolutely incredible. They kept us informed, answered all of our questions and got the job done on time and in budget. Towards the end of the process, we had the pleasure of meeting Edward, Kogans new owner. The transition went off without a hitch as far as we were concerned. Edward was great to us, very engaged in the process, and as happy as we were to see our home completed. Overall, Kogan is a great combination of consummate professionals with a warm family atmosphere. We also felt very comfortable with every member of the team. We cannot recommend Kogan highly enough!

My husband and I used Kogan Builders to design and build our beautiful custom home and we highly recommend them. From start to finish, the Kogan team bent over backwards to not only meet our every need and request, but often they anticipated those needs and helped us to see them. We had an amazing experience working with Kogan’s in house architectural designer Chris who helped us formulate our vision and put it on paper with his incredible creativity. We loved working with Ryan on the pre-construction process. He knew everything about getting the permits, and other necessary steps to prepare for ground breaking. He was very honest about costs and helped us tremendously to stay within our budget as we went through and made changes along the way. Tracy was instrumental in creating the homey feel inside that was so important to us. From lights to cabinets to faucets, she was there to help us make every decision - and there are many! From the moment we broke ground, Jason and his team made us feel at ease with the construction project. Because we live out of town, their updates and guidance as we went along were so invaluable to us. They always communicated with us when decisions needed to be made so that we did not lose time. The workmanship of the house was something we really noticed. Kogan uses top quality materials throughout -- even when you cannot see those materials in the end product. Looking at the building projects of other builders made us realize that, in comparison, Kogan goes above and beyond on many aspects of their construction that, while not seen, do impact the quality and function of the home. This is something you may not think about, but we would recommend inspecting homes in various stages of construction if you are considering other builders because it helps you to see how Kogan stands out in terms of quality. A friend of ours who built with Kogan recommended we do this and we are glad we took his advice. In the end, we have a home that we love and we cannot thank the Kogan team enough for making our dream a reality!

The entire KBI team was an absolute joy to work with, from start to finish. EVERYONE was so professional, knowledgeable, and fun to collaborate with to help us see our dream come to life!

Tile & Light Art has worked with Kogan Builders for 8 plus years as a supplier/vendor and we couldn’t ask for a better partner in the building industry. The entire Kogan Builders team is driven from the very beginning of every project through to its completion to provide the utmost in design, quality, care and attention to everyone of their clients that they are building for. We never hesitate to highly recommend the Kogan Team.

As a real estate agent in Durango, I highly recommend Kogan Builders. The quality and attention to detail in their homes is truly remarkable. I can always tell a Kogan home when I am showing. I can personally say that the whole team is a pleasure to deal with and they make the entire process seamless from start to finish. Alix Kogan truly cares about his homes and takes great pride in his work. If you are considering building a home, definitely speak with Kogan Builders. You wont be disappointed!

We are four months out so far our experience with Kogan and the entire build and design team have been outstanding. Our house gets better everyday as it progresses and looks better than we initially imagined. We are very excited to see the final product and move in!

We have had a long-standing partnership with Kogan Builders over several years. We always appreciate their professionalism and commitment to quality construction, which specifically includes their forward thinking in the realms of technology integration, A/V and networking systems. Their recognition that lighting control and smart home systems are a fundamental element of contemporary construction sets them apart from many other builders. The Kogan team is a great group of individuals to work with, through all phases of a project. We are always excited and proud to be a part of any Kogan home, because our own standard for excellence is valued and optimized within the high-caliber standard that is set by Kogan Builders.

I had the pleasure of working with Kogan builders over the last few years on some potential project options. Let me start here, I absolutely love my Kogan built home. It has attention to detail, creativity in the design, and follow through by the Kogan team long after the home was completed. In the past 15 years, we are on our 8th home. Our Kogan home is hands down our favorite, its not even close.A big thanks to the Kogan team for delivering on what was promised and making sure that integrity, transparency, and quality were the core values of this tremendous team.

We chose Kogan Builders because they provide a complete package of design and construction services. The professional team worked very well internally and with us to create an epic piece of architecture and a smooth construction process. Our custom home came out way above our expectations, including high quality work, using skilled trades, and guidance to keep our designs with in our budget goals. We highly recommend Kogan Builders in creating a custom home of your dreams.

Kogan Builders provided us an exceptional experience in designing a gorgeous home. Their highly experienced and complete in-house team works closely with their clients to design a home that showcases each individual’s vision, style, and budget. Their process is impeccable; they walked us through the entire build process, paying extra attention to detail and communicating with professionalism and attentiveness. Their high quality and visually appealing homes are built with craftsmanship that brings style and function together. We have had the pleasure of working with Kogan Builders both personally and professionally and they continue to set a high bar for what they bring to their clients each and every time.

We have been in our Kogan-built and designed home for almost 2 years now and continue to be pleased with our entire experience with the Kogan team. Our relationship with Kogan is now going on 4 years (Design, Build, Post-move in support) and it is difficult to imagine a better ongoing relationship on such a long term project. The value of Kogans long-standing local relationships continues to pay dividends as both Kogan and their subcontractors are happy to provide after move-in service, even a year and a half after the project was finished.

My wife and I bought a home in the upper Animas Valley that needed a complete remodel down to the studs , 3 additions and a new detached garage. The project took 7 months to complete. Having gone through this process before with other builders and also having built a new house from bare dirt, I must say that the experience was exceptional! We were assigned Bruce as our project manager and truly appreciated his professionalism, creativity, organizational skills and thoughtfulness. We were completely satisfied with the timeliness and quality of workmanship.Further, a few years later when we had an small issue that required plumbing, cement and stone work, Kogan Builders lived up to their reputation and performed the repair work quickly and fairly. These days most builders would not even return your phone call if an issue arises after the warranty period. This was not the case with Kogan.We would not hesitate to recommend their services to friends and if we are ever in need of a quality builder again......they would be our first phone call.Thank you Kogan Builders!!!

I have worked with the Kogan team of design and construction professionals since their company was founded a few decades ago. Alix and his team are known to provide a technical/engineering based design followed by monitoring and quality control during construction. Continuity of oversight from design through the completion of construction ultimately benefits the homeowner.

We are thrilled with the new home Kogan Builders built for us. The staff is very helpful and professional. It can never go perfectly smoothly, but we were always able to get problems solved. We are looking forward to many happy times in our home.

Built a home with Kogan Builders. The entire experience was just great for both my wife and I. Quality team and just fantastic finished product. If you want to find a dream house in Durango I highly suggest you seek out Kogan Builders.

Alix and the team at KBI were incredible with our build. My wife and I had some ideas that we could not quite communicate and the KBI team were able to extract them and make them a reality. We could not have been any happier with the process as it was clearly defined for us. The finish product is more than we had even hoped for and our family will enjoy it for many years to come.

Kogan did a wonderful job working with us to design and build our home. Very high quality, and the wonderful part is that post build we can count on Kogan to make any ( very few) problems right.

I have been a real estate agent for over 14 years in Durango, and many of my clients have chosen to build homes with Kogan Builders. Their commitment to excellence is reflected by the finished product they produce. All of my clients that have used Kogan Builders are very happy with their custom-built homes, and high-end re-models. I highly recommend Kogan Builders to anyone looking for quality built home in the Durango area!

While the entire build process took a bit longer than expected due to an unforeseen excavation issue and the 416 fire, we couldn’t be happier with our Kogan Builders, Glacier Club home. After buying our lot we met with and interviewed several Durango builders that our realtor recommended. Alix Kogan was the only builder that took the time to meet with us and show us several homes he and his design team had completed. Based upon Alix’s personal attention, my wife and I agreed Kogan Builders was the right choice for us to design and build our new Colorado vacation home.As out of state Texas clients, from the start we worked closely with the KBI designers, Tracy and Jackie and our project manager Jon. The three of them kept the build project moving along with a handful of site visits and regular conference calls and were instrumental in helping us make our design decisions. The few times we got bogged down and had a hard time making our design choices with the KBI team, Alix was there to offer his expert design insights which kept our project moving along.We highly recommend Alix and the KBI team if you are considering designing and building a new Durango home. Believe us, when we tell you, you’ll be thrilled with their attention to detail and your new mountain home!Dale and Kelli BurksLake Kiowa, TX

Good high end builders
