Thanks to Scott and his team, we have our new dream basement!! Scott is a very unique professional. It’s unlikely that you're going to find a GC that is a top-notch interior designer and has 30 + years in the construction industry with deep vendor and subcontractor relationships. He designed every aspect of our basement. Scott helped pick out carpet, paint, wood flooring, wall texture, door hardware, cabinets, granite, etc... and we LOVE it. Scott knows how to design high-end living spaces and he delivered for us. Scott has a solid team of sub-contractors that he's used for years. They know how to get the job done and they'll deliver. It doesn't always go perfect as he'll tell you, but Scott does a good job managing his people, correcting problems, and delivering on expectations. Scott is going to be more critical of his subs work than you are as I've witnessed. Scott didn't like the way his mason completed our stacked stone columns. He made the owner of the mason company show up on a Saturday morning and he and the owner worked through the challenges to make it perfect. He holds their feet to the fire to get it right. He won't stop until you're happy. One of his subs told me "he's sweet to his clients and tough on his subs". I've found this statement to be true. This is our second job with Scott as our first experience with our overhang was superior as well. We trust Scott with any construction project needs we have in the future. I would highly recommend Scott for any basement, deck, overhang, or general living space projects you're looking at completing. A few tips: For the best working relationship with your GC, set all expectations up front and as things change in your mind make sure they're communicated clearly and right away. Don't assume anything. Scott doesn't read minds! If you don't say anything, that's on you, not Scott. Be flexible. Sometimes what you have in your head is not feasible or practical. Scott will be honest with you on what will or won't work. Be open minded and consider all options. Work with Scott collaboratively and you'll come to solutions that you'll be satisfied with. Treat your GC with mutual respect. If you're the type of home owner that complains, finger points, and generally enjoys beating up contractors, consider doing the project yourself or not at all. Nobody deserves that kind of treatment including you if the roles were reversed, right? I would encourage you to do your best to avoid this kind of behavior throughout your project. Scott will do anything to make you happy, but be reasonable. He can't move heaven and earth though he may try. Think about what's fair before you ask him to move mountains and consider putting yourself in his shoes first before you judge a situation. All GCs - the good ones anyway - will have multiple projects going on simultaneously. If you're the only job your GC has, then I would be worried. Scott will be responsive, but he can get busy just like you. He'll do his best to get back to you right away, but if he doesn't don't blow a gasket. Practice patience and empathy. Know every job is important to him. If you feel like you're in need of more attention, let him know. He's very good with open and direct communication. In short: 1. Provide clear expectations and good communication before, during, and after the project is finished. Never assume. 2. Be the best partner you can be. See Scott as a partner and work with him collaboratively on your project. 3. Practice patience, empathy, and flexibility with all parties through the duration of the project. We are all human beings and mistakes happen. Do these three things and you'll have a positive experience with any GC. You'll also raise your chances of having a fantastic outcome with your construction project as my wife and I did. - Mark

They built our deck for us. It was far from a standard job and they did excellent work and completed the project on time.

Colorado Creations replaced five decks and two fences for us. One of the decks was for a new hot tub, and Colorado Creations hired a crane to lift the hot tub over the house! Everyone we dealt with was extremely professional, punctual, and competent. We have no hesitation in recommending them.

I wanted to let anyone interested in an outdoor project know what an amazing job Colorado Creations did for us. The design alone was incredible. To see what we had envisioned become even more that we expected. The entire crew at the company was great. We really appreciated the communication which helped if schedules changed or there were questions. We could always get a hold of someone!

Smart, Knowledgeable , and very professional. Easy to deal with and a pleasure to work with. The drawings are accurate, and easy to read.

I have worked with Colorado creations for 8 years providing appliances and install for their clients. Their work is done in a timely and professional manner. With the addition of additional jobsite supervisors the jobs have gone very smooth and free of major problems. The other vendors they use are courteous, professional and very skilled in their craft.
