From Our Clients

Working over the last 18 months with Keeley Construction has been great.

Their patience, response times, explanations, and overall knowledge have helped us get an understanding of our new building. We were over to the new site multiple times daily, sometimes asking the same questions, and they would go through it again. These guys were an absolute pleasure to work with. We appreciate everything you have done.

Your team has been nothing short of perfect.

Keeley has educated me when necessary, made recommendations when they saw decisions taking wrong turns, and helped me navigate an interesting relationship with our PE. You mentioned at the beginning of the program that you had given me your “A-Team” for this project and I feel that has been accurate. I’m a huge fan of communication and your team does it well. The weekly updates are key, allowing me to distribute a brief summary with photos directly to upper management.

On behalf of Symphony Clinical Research, I’d like to thank each of you for our new expanded storage area.

The new space is open, clean, efficient – just what we were envisioning. This was a no-nonsense project. Everyone seemed to understand what had to be done and went about making it happen with no fanfare or drama. I sincerely wish all projects could be completed like this and all partners were so reliable!

I want to take the opportunity to tell you what a pleasure it was to work with your staff.

They were all extremely accommodating and professional throughout the process. In particular, I would like to single out the superintendent on this project, who is one of the finest I have ever worked with in my 37+ years in this field. You should be proud and happy to have such a dedicated and tireless employee.

It was great working with your firm on the LSSC in Woodridge.

You were very professional under a condensed schedule and very accommodating to the EESCO’s needs. The Keeley team was professional, ethical, and knowledgeable, and made the site a wonderful place to work and accomplish our goals. The Keeley team kept the project on time, had patience with my questions and changes, and had great interactions with all the tradespeople including those not directly working for Keeley. During the entire time, I felt confident the project would be completed on schedule. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to any of your future customers.
