About Us
Goodgift, Inc. is a general contractor providing custom home building and remodeling services from Denver to Colorado Springs.
The company was born out of the unlikely meeting of two people, John Heim and Ross Burke. Ross, a master carpenter and a successful construction business owner in Michigan, spent nearly 25 years building and finishing luxury custom homes on Lake Michigan, before moving to Colorado. From framing to finish carpentry, Ross has done and seen it all. There isn’t anything that Ross can’t build or any construction challenge that Ross can’t solve.
John, comes from a different background. He owned and managed a successful advertising and marketing firm in Denver for more than 20 years. John’s experience and talent is in running complex projects with mixed resources, scheduling challenges, budget constraints and strict deadlines. He is an expert in managing customer, skilled labor and supplier relationships.
Ross and John are a perfect fit. It is the jobsite leadership and craftsmanship that Ross brings and John’s project and relationship management skills that allow Goodgift to so consistently deliver happiness. (You can read some of our client testimonials below.)

Client Testimonials
It was our sincerest pleasure getting to know John and to work with John and his crew! They were the most professional contractors I've had the pleasure to work with. They did great work, always ensured to clean up after themselves and always respected our wishes and property. I can't thank them enough for the no-stress process and the dream bathroom they delivered. I would not hesitate to recommend Goodgift to any and all of my friends and contacts looking at home improvement projects in the future. I would count John not only as a trusted professional, but also as a friend.

Goodgift recently did a complete tear-out and rebuild of our 40 year old home’s basement. We are very satisfied with the work. The project involved many challenges as the original finish had been done without building permits and required extensive work to bring it up to current building code. John, his employees, and subcontractors were a pleasure to work with during the entire process. John’s strong planning skills insured that the job progressed rapidly and smoothly. John’s level of communication with us was phenomenal throughout the job. We were never left wondering what was going to happen next or where we were in the process. He always made sure we knew when we had to make decisions or provide input into the many areas within our control. The true test of a company’s integrity is not just the product they turn out, but how they deal with problems as they arise. We did have issues, as any job of this complexity will have, but John always extended himself to make sure he did everything possible to keep us satisfied. We highly recommend Goodgift for any building or remodeling project and we will use them again when we need construction services.

John and his team did a complete gut of my 2nd bath and tiled the shower and floor, painted the walls and installed the new vanity, mirror and shelves. They also updated the heated flooring in all 3 bathrooms and retitled the master bath floor and shower. He and his team did a great job. He communicated with me frequently and always kept me in the loop on progress and items that needed my attention. He even replaced my toilet when the original one was broken when it was uninstalled. I will call John for all my projects and I have recommended him to several friends in the neighborhood.

John, Ross and their crew were honest, personable, responsive and provided a very reasonable estimate for structural porch repair. John followed up numerous times to ensure everything was going good for us and we were satisfied with their work. We will being using them again for bathroom remodels.

John and his team at Goodgift did an excellent job for us. John, I already told a couple of my friends about you and how good you are.

John, Ross and the team at Goodgift have been a pleasure to work with. They went the extra mile to make sure our kitchen remodel project was successful. After having schedule problems with our previous contractor, we switched to John's team just a few weeks before demo was to begin. John saved our project to ensure we could keep our original schedule and was upfront about pricing which we greatly appreciated. They always followed through, did the work when they said they would and consistently followed up to make sure we knew what was happening when. It was so fun getting to know them over the course of the project and we always felt completely comfortable having them in our home. Far and away the best thing about Goodgift is the integrity they bring to their work. They did quality work and were honest and upfront in all our dealings with them. They believe in their values and act them out every day. We would highly recommend them.

When we first started looking for someone to do our project, we knew we needed to work with someone that we could trust and we would be able to talk with about issues. John and Goodgift fit the bill. Not only was he good to work with but his staff was great as well. Ross is amazing in what he can do with anything that’s wood. John always backed his word and made sure that the job was done correctly to the highest standards. I was impressed with their professionalism and attention to getting the job done as quickly as possible so that our family did not have to survive long without a functioning kitchen in our own home. We would recommend him and we do all the time. You will not be disappointed in hiring Goodgift for your building or remodeling project, whether big or small.

Goodgift has done two separate projects for us and they did an excellent job on both. One was the remodeling of our family room and the other was refinishing our teak deck. They were on budget, professional and completed the projects within the expected timeline. John is a great guy to work with! We have requested another bid from him for an outdoor landscaping light system and will soon be looking to Goodgift for a major interior remodel. I highly recommend Goodgift for your home remodeling projects!
– Jennifer Goss, Belvedere, Grant Ranch
We had Goodgift install a 14 foot multi-slide patio door on the back of our home. This project required structural bracing, shoring up of the second floor and shoring of our patio cover...to say the job was complex would be an understatement. John and his crew came in and did an amazing job. His entire crew was very professional and knowledgeable. Additionally, considering that we have 3 children, they cleaned up everyday and left the jobsite the way it was when they arrived. I would highly recommend John and his crew at Goodgift for any building or remodeling project.

John Heim with Goodgift is a true professional. He completed all of my various projects to my satisfaction, and addressed any concerns I had during the process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and hardworking company for their building and remodeling needs.

John had great communications with us and kept us informed through the entire process of our bathroom remodel. We were very happy.

Goodgift built a room addition for us this summer and they were great! And, the project came in under estimate.
