About Us I Dohn Construction

History

Founded in 1992, Doug and Connie Dohn set out with the desire to change the general contracting industry through valuing clients, team members, and subcontractors. What started as a small construction company quickly grew as word spread about our philosophy and approach to the construction process. As time progressed and more projects were completed the employee-centric culture that Doug and Connie envisioned bled into how we approached our relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, and professionals throughout Northern Colorado. With these colleagues in construction, we built collaborative relationships through trust and open communication creating lifelong partnerships.

As our reach grew, we knew it was time to branch out, keeping within the initial vision of the company and seeing our projects expand outside of the Northern Colorado footprint prompted us to expand into the Denver Metro area.

Our strength comes from the partnerships we form with clients, architects, engineers, designers, developers, and subcontractors. With these colleagues in construction, we’ve built collaborative relationships through trust and open communication creating lifelong partnerships. These partnerships have led to amazing buildings being built while providing the best value for our clients.

We have been challenged to think creatively and adjust the way we approach preconstruction and construction

our approach

Strategic planning

Strategic planning establishes the blueprint for a successful project. We involve all members of the team from the onset of the project, including owners, architects, engineers, project managers, and subcontractors to gain a shared understanding of a project owner's vision. Team engagement helps us find solutions to constructability issues well in advance.

Pre-construction

We know the foundation of a successful construction phase is a meticulously crafted preconstruction phase. From brainstorming to subcontractor bidding, we manage each step to ensure your project is set up for success well before we break ground.

Construction

We've tooled our approach to the construction phase over the years to achieve the owners' desired vision using proactive, problem-solving methods for a well-built project delivered on time, and under budget.

Safety

We keep health and safety top-of-mind at all times. We've protected our excellent ten-year safety record by:

  • Eliminating hazards from the jobsite
  • Providing ongoing safety education for all employees
  • Empowering superintendents to facilitate safety workshops on their job sites
  • Encouraging employees and subcontractors to report safety violations
  • Offering wellness benefits to keep employees healthy

We are proud to promote a culture of safety in our office and on our job sites, every project, every day.

Quality Assurance

Quality assurance begins with a thorough review of all construction documents at the onset of a project. This gives the team a chance to ask questions and obtain clarifications from the design team. Our project manager will coordinate preconstruction and will make inquiries from major subcontractors to ensure constructability. Throughout the construction process, the field superintendent continuously monitors quality control.
