Do not hire James P Hood Construction, LLC for any management (GC) related projects! Some of my recent experience: A) JPH didn't tighten any of the nuts for the bolts connecting the sole plates to the concrete foundation (which I, the homeowner, found before the drywall went up - they were literally loose enough to spin by hand). B) JPH spliced boards along one side of a structural ridge beam rather than using full length boards, which, had the inspector not caught this mistake, could have resulted in the roof sagging or even collapsing. JPH’s sub, Ty Cook, misappropriated $5K of our funds, which James initially said he would rectify. 2 months later, he changed his mind. Ty also pulled down my neighbor’s security tape and parked his work truck on her 4 day old concrete parking lot. When she came out and confronted him, he told her that her concrete contractor had said he could. She called him, angry, and he said he hadn’t told Ty he could park there. She’s still angry at me for allowing this but I only found out about it after the fact, from James, who, despite these issues and others, is still, as far as I know, working with Ty. James no longer agrees (at least, he hasn’t articulated it verbally or in written form) that he owes us money for allowances he listed in the contract that he would purchase which, in order to get better pricing for higher quality items, my wife and I paid for with separate funds in the understanding that we would be reimbursed James’ allowance amounts. Example, JPH allowed $1,000 for stock kitchen cabinets and a Formica countertop. Way low. We bought better cabinets and a stone countertop with separate funds, having been told by James that he would reimburse us $1,000 for that allowance. Now, nearing the end of the project? James has made no attempt to reimburse us. Same for a long list of other allowances. All told, on an initial contracted amount just over $100K, JPH has been paid $83K and owes us over $30K in reimbursements. I met with James and a mediator from Score recently, during which, James used this line of reasoning (paraphrased): "There are thousands of contractors in Colorado Springs and you chose me, someone who had only built one house before..." In other words, I should have realized that he wasn't experienced/competent to manage our projects before hiring him! Let that reasoning sink in. Yet his website says that JPH has been building semi-custom homes and remodeling existing homes since 2003. Finally, James effectively admitted that the initial $103K number was not thought through; that he simply wanted the work and hadn't put pencil to paper sufficiently.
