Connolly Construction Inc

We signed a contract with Connolly Construction in January 2021 to complete a kitchen & bath remodel and refinish the floors in a Denver condo, with an expected start date in early February. An initial payment of approximately $25,000 was made in January. No work was ever completed. Rodney Connolly was very poor at proactively managing the project to a start date (our initial check was never cashed) and communication was lacking...I had to chase him for updates on a start date regularly from April - August. In early August, we made one last request to receive a committed start date. He did not reply. We then informed him that we would not be moving forward with him and requested that he return our keys. He never acknowledged our email or replied. He was originally recommended to us by our cabinet supplier. I had to request their help in returning our keys. Rodney displayed a complete lack of professionalism and his behaviors indicate that he is not effective at managing a business.

Connolly charged us for work that was not completed. Connolly did not communicate well with its subcontractors and did not convey our instructions to them, resulting in work that had to be re-done. The work was not executed in a timely and efficient manner - days went by with no work performed. Connolly did not pay one subcontractor even though he gave us a lien waiver when we paid him for the work. We negotiated a refund with Connolly once we realized that he had charged us for work that was not performed. Connolly agreed to the amount, but did not pay the refund. Once we hired an attorney, he refunded only a portion of the refund amount. Connolly still has not paid the subcontractor.
