What People Are Saying

Rob Hollis is a very professional, knowledgeable, home-improvement specialist. He has a very strong work ethic and manages his time in such a way to work efficiently while still achieving the high quality standards of workmanship he sets for himself.

We recently purchased a house in need of attention and hired Rob to renovate. He completely renovated the downstairs ohana, finishing every aspect of the renovation beautifully and in a timely manner. He replaced kitchen cabinets, repositioned doorways, made plumbing repairs, drywalled and textured, installed beautiful tile work, replaced the flooring, replaced and installed new windows, sliders and trim, painted interiors, skillfully repaired termite-damaged structure. Every aspect of the project was completed with attention to detail, but because of his work ethic, no project exceeded the expected timeline. He also completed many of the same projects on the upper level of the house with the addition of adding trim to windows and installing appliances and electrical fixtures.

We highly recommend Rob Hollis for your home improvement needs. His work ethic and the final result surpass expectations.

In 2017, I purchased a home in Waikoloa Village that had been built in 1999. I then initiated a complete renovation.

Rob Hollis was the person who did most of the work for me. He gutted both bathrooms and rebuilt them with beautiful tile work. He replaced all of the windows, sliders, and doors in the house. He added casement work around all windows and doors and also did the baseboards. He installed the flooring in the bathrooms and laundry room (tile) and in the rest of the house (vinyl plank). He customized the closets in both bedrooms. He built a large storage area above the closet in one bedroom. He did most of the plumbing, including adding an exterior sink, and moving the drain and water lines in the masterbath. He installed a new pocket door. He did all required drywall work including texturing, and then painted all of the interior walls. He built a wood fence around the dog run as well as a shed. He also replaced one of the sliders with a bay window. He also is adept at mortar and concrete work.

Yes, Rob possesses many skills as well as a commitment to his craft. His work with wood is particularly noteworthy. He has a great eye for detail and on many occasions contributed to our design vision or provided practical insight concerning competing designs. I also found Rob to be totally trustworthy and fair. He is remarkably efficient while paying attention to the small stuff. He is very organized and cleans up the job site daily. I truly enjoyed working with him the past 4 months.

Words alone cannot convey the quality of Rob's work. I would be pleased to allow you to tour our home, for it is a testimony to the work ethic of the craftsman who made it possible.

To Whom It May Concern:

Rob Hollis did several jobs for us. He remodeled a bathroom, and did some drywall work in a bedroom and hallway.

Rob is a perfectionist, and it shows in his work. He is hard-working and diligent. He plans things out carefully up front so that he completes each task quickly and efficiently. He is very trustworthy and he's honest from the beginning about the cost of the project, and communicates any unforeseen cost or complications right away.

Our only regret is that Rob has now moved far away to Hawaii and no longer available here in Howell, MI. Lucky you for having him in your area!

We have never been disappointed when we hired you to do work at our home. Whether it was a quick and easy install of our son’s air conditioner into his bedroom each year, the many painting jobs done in and out of our home, the picnic table you built for our grandchildren, the repairing of our lattice bench seat made for us by my father, the sealing of our sauna, the repair of wood working to our stone house, the custom designed desk in our kitchen working with our high school son to design it, we were only thrilled by your great work, your quick response to give us a quote and a job well done. We will miss you and your talent for being a great man to call for needed work.

Best of wishes to you both,
Diana and Jim Grant

We decided to have our bathroom updated. Before we connected with Hollis Home Improvement we wrestled with including tiling our shower stall. Finally getting quotes from different contractors we fortunately picked Rob Hollis. Our bathroom exceeded what we hoped. The end result is just part of the process. Everything about this remodeling project was great. The remodeling started exactly when it was slated. The project was not disruptive to our lives. Rob discussed products and helped us decide about tiles, fixtures, etc. Rob and his team were a pleasure to have in our home. When the project was completed on time and on budget we were so happy with the completed look and product. Remodeling is not just the end product but also the process. We highly recommend Hollis Home Improvement!

Dear Rob Hollis,

I received Rob's name from a friend, so I called Rob and he came to my house when he said he would. He not only gave me a firm quote in a couple of days, but recommended that I get someone to replace my roof after showing me several bad areas that had probably caused the severe water damage to my enclosed porch. After following his advice and getting my roof replaced, he then started working on rebuilding the porch. All of his employees were very courteous and never used bad language. Every night he left the area clean. He and his employees always worked continuously and long hours with no smoking breaks. We were very satisfied with all of his work, and would not hesitate to call on him again if we require any more remodeling to be done, or recommend him to a friend.

Sincerely Yours,
Jim & Naomi Stratton

To Whom It May Concern,

I have been having Rob Hollis do a lot of jobs for me for a few years now. I have gotten so I don't trust anyone else. He is very fair with his estimates and gets the jobs done right the FIRST TIME. He will also refer you to other good people if he can't for some reason assist you. And clean up? What clean up. He does it all. I feel you would be very pleased with Hollis Home Improvement.

Sincerely
Karen Cobb Satisfied Customer

We have been doing business with Hollis Home Improvement for several years. Each job has been a pleasure. The pricing is fair, and the job is done in a timely and professional manner. Hollis Home Improvement has done everything from the smallest project to our largest, a beautiful finished basement, and each is a job well done. Our family has been more than satisfied with the quality of workmanship we have received on each and every project from Hollis Home Improvement. Thanks Rob!

Dear Rob,

We couldn't have been happier with the projects Hollis Improvement has worked on for us in our home!

The quotes were accurate and kept in budget. Rob and his workers were always on time, very knowledgeable and did an excellent quality of work.

Even many months later we remain extremely satisfied with the work. The added suggestions to our projects made for professionally finished projects.

We would highly recommend your company!

Sincerely,
Mark and Jan Behrendt

Dear Rob,

Just a quick note to thank you again for the wonderful job you did on adding brick pavers to the side of my home and for a beautiful job of finishing my basement. Your prices are very reasonable for the high quality work you do; you were able to save me twenty three hundred dollars than I was quoted from another local basement refinishing company. They quoted me 2-3 weeks until completion, you did the entire basement in less than a week and it was absolutely flawless, and not a single loose screw or piece of sheet rock had been left for me to clean. A completely finished basement in less than a week. WOW!

Great job, great service, great experienceI look forward to having you do all my future home improvement projects.

Sincerely,
Scott Greene

Rob Hollis of Hollis Home Improvements has been a handyman contractor for several of our condominium and homeowners communities for several years. He has worked on many jobs for the individual communities and for many of the unit owners who have contracted with him for various jobs. I have never received a complaint about his attitude or his abilities, his timing, workmanship, and scheduling to get the work done on time. If he is not comfortable with the work, he is quick to point that out and recommend others who have the skills and experience required. He has always been timely in the execution of his job responsibilities and his work has always been appreciated by our Boards of Directors, who ask that he be included on bid lists or have directed me to just hire him outright on jobs that need to be done.

His job pricing has always been reasonable for the work to be done. He never gives us a surprise on jobs that require additional work and are therefore more extensive than initially perceived and checks with me before doing more work than was expected. He is careful to separate financial responsibility to be sure that he does the work for the Community and lets the unit owner know if they are responsible for additional work that might be related.

If asked to quote a job, he estimates when the quote will be prepared and forwards the quote to me on a timely basis.

I would highly recommend him for doing maintenance, repair, and improvement projects.

Very truly yours,
Mark H Hawley
Vice-President

Dear Rob and Crew,

This is the second time we have used Hollis Home Construction for major projects. The first remodeling project was in 2002 at our home in Howell. This project in 2010 took place in Brighton. We have highly recommended you to our friends and neighbors.

We want to express our most sincere appreciation for the outstanding work that you and your crew did in remodeling our entire home. We are so impressed that you and your crew worked the long hours necessary for us to move into our new home ON SCHEDULE and ON BUDGET. We also appreciated your insight and recommendations during the entire process. A very special bonus was that each evening the grounds and home were clean of debris.

Your work far exceeded our expectations — not only did you follow our plan but exceeded our needs in the form of quality and design. During the 3 months of remodeling you and your crew maintained a positive, polite, helpful and caring attitude. You took care of our project and home as though it "was your own home."

Thanks so much for your professionalism, quality workmanship, trustworthiness, respect and reliability.

Sincerely,
Lois and Peter Mould, Brighton, MI

Dear Rob,

On several occasions I have utilized the services of Hollis Home Improvement. The service and most importantly, the workmanship has always surpassed my highest expectations. This has made it very easy for me to include Hollis Home Improvement when seeking estimates on other projects. Your estimates have ALWAYS been competitive. Your quality of work has continually exceeded my expectations. You, and the employees of Hollis Home Improvement, have been not only courteous, but approachable as well. Work always began as scheduled and completed when promised. Clean up was performed well on all occasions. The one thing I like best about working with you is your unflappable desire to stand by and guarantee all your work. Being handicapped, even little things, like adjustments and changing bulbs create a challenge for me, not when I call you. Your company is always there to help me out, even though it is rarely needed. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you and Hollis Home Improvement. I am looking forward to utilizing your services in the future.

Sincerely yours,
Thomas Darin

To Future Hollis Home Improvement Customers,

I am probably the most skeptical person Rob Hollis ever encountered. I interviewed a lot of companies and received quotes from them, including Hollis Home Improvement.

I hired Rob and his team and could not have been happier. Rob very carefully explained everything to me, answered my calls promptly and after I hired him I was thrilled with his work.

His team was on time, worked quickly but professionally and efficiently and completed the job (my kitchen) on time. His team was polite and professional and completed each day by cleaning up and causing the least disruption possible.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Hollis Home Improvement Company. My skepticism was completely unfounded with Rob and his team. They are reliable, honest and trustworthy.
