    Kitchen Renovation

    We hired A lifetime General Contractor to renovate our kitchen. They were very professional and completed the work within stipulated time of five weeks. We had to leave for India on family matters however they completed the work without supervision. Also they did not ask for any more than agreed sum and we are very happy with their work. We shall be happy to recommend them to our family and friends.

    Basement finish

    We hired A Lifetime General Contractor Ltd to finish our basement which was unfinished for a number of years. This company was recommended to us by a friend of ours. They started and completed the project on time and the quality of workmanship outstanding and as per our requirement. The communication with Ram and his staff was good and timely. We did not face any problems with payment schedule which was agreed to prior to starting the project. We would not hesitate in recommending this company to others.

    Basement , kitchen n bathroom

    We had been planning a major renovation in my house for the last year and a half. I met this contractor at a friend's place and was impressed by the conversation about how they approach remodeling. I ended up inviting them to take a look at my house and suggest a solution and rest they say, is history. Being an engineer myself, I was sure that this contractor knows what he was doing or planned to do. The work was done in 45 days. It took longer only because I was holding things up. Otherwise, the contractor was always proactive. I suggest to forget about the reviews; meeting the contractor is always the best way to get firsthand experience. I was completely satisfied with the work and highly recommend this company.

    Basement renovation

    A friend of mine referred to this company. They were quite responsive and visited my house the very next day after I called them. I was really very impressed by their professional approach. I am a teacher, but, I could still make out the difference compared to other contractors who also approached me. Lifetime's proposal was with a proper drawing and specifications that clearly defined their work and scope. They advised me on the right materials and preferences. This saved a great deal of headache to me. After signing the contract, their crew was on the job as promised. Well behaved and professional crew. we had no issues at all with the quality of the work. Excellent approach! Excellent work ethics! And excellent workmanship… Professional … I have referred this company to 3 of my friends and I am getting their appreciation for doing so. I have just signed a contract to extend my house to accommodate two rooms.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you for the positive review. This end-to-end project was one of our best executions with no interruptions in our schedule. Mainly thanks to you and your family who cooperated with our crew in the best manner possible. Thank you for the referrals. We are grateful.

    Basement renovation

    I have had lifetime contractor work on several projects for me. Kitchen renovation, bathroom renovations, build a porch and most recently a basement renovation. The earlier projects were under the previous management and staff and were wonderful. The most recent (basement renovation) was after the change in ownership. The project suffered because the new owner failed to pay their trades and employees on time. Employees were working on my job without having been paid for over two months! I had to pay for my flooring directly in order to get it to my home after waiting 3 months for the work to proceed. The excellent project manager, Bruce, later quit and all the best employees have since moved on. I am seriously surprised this company is still a going concern. I was contacted by one company threatening to take back the new stairs 4 months after the job was finally completed because they still hadn't been paid for their product. Unbelievable.

    Answer from pro:

    The new owners have been running the company since 2014. Bruce and the last employee was fired for living off company time by inflating hours in December of 2016. Since December 2016 we have not had regular employees for same reason. This review is fraudulent and we have a pretty good idea who wrote it to damage the company's reputation. These are the same sub contractors who poison home owners minds to take over running contracts. Really low down human beings and one of them takes cash money for work and lives in a shelter. Shame! Our work has been exemplary except for reviews by competitors jealous of our success. I would impress upon the readers to ignore these negative comments. Success breeds resentment.

    Garage

    We came to an aggrement last year dec for my garage to get done by end of Jan and not done till now(July18, 2018). All the negative comments/reviews about this company here are very true. His workers walk out on the job due for not funding and paying them at the right time. Go look elsewhere if you want your renovation project to be completed.

    Answer from pro:

    We messed up this one. We poured concrete in dead of winter and when it settled the surface was uneven. The owner was aware that concrete is going to be poured in winter but they wanted it done when they were on vacation.Thereafter whatever we tried the level could not be achieved. The concrete contractor declined to return and we used a number of unskilled subs to correct the problem but without success. The owners are right to be upset and we admit our error.

    Bathroom renovation and Bsmt

    I would never recommend Lifetime Contracting to anyone. The owner Ram Sharma has no regard for how the job gets done or whether or not it gets done in a timely fashion. His main concern is the cheques or and deposits and thats it. He cowers care who he hire to get the job done and in most cases, he never does get the job done. When a [problem arises, he is no where to be found, instead he doesn't and lets his employees try to solve the situation. Yet he expects the cheques to come to him and then pays what he wants and when he wants, which in turn upsets his employees and the job subsequently suffers as a result.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you for the positive reviews. You guys handled every change in a well informed manner and our team was grateful for your professionalism. Looking forward to working on your next project in near future.
