Whelp... our contractor has disappeared

We have a flip in Denver that is 80% finished.  Luckily most of the materials have been purchased and are at the house.  Our contractor is totally unresponsive now and no one is working at the house.  We need to get this done asap.  And yep, it's going to cost more money :( we've used this guy on other projects and he's been great but at this point, we are not willing to put any more trust in him (especially since he's not responding).  Would love recommendations in the Denver Metro Area.  Please PM me!

If you have a written contract with the contractor, you can always take that to court and have a mechanics lien put on him.

A mechanic's lien goes on the property to ensure that contractors and subs get paid. Here's a link giving some more detail.
