HE REFUSED TO COME AND GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE ON THE JOB BECAUSE MY HUSBAND WASN'T HOME. WHEN I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD A PROBLEM DEALING WITH WOMEN, HE SAID, "I GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO POLITELY REFUSE TO COME OUT".

WHENEVER POSSIBLE WE ASK THAT FAMILY DECISION MAKERS BE PRESENT WHEN WE VISIT A HOME. WE DO THIS TO AVOID CONFUSION IN THE PRICE ESTIMATE PROCESS - I.E. THE HUSBAND AND WIFE HAVE A DIFFERENT VISION FOR THE PROJECT WHICH RESULTS IN A MUCH DIFFERENT ESTIMATE. OUR EXPERIENCE TELLS US THAT THIS OFTEN HAPPENS, AND CAN BE RESOLVED DURING THE INITIAL VISIT. WHEN DOING A LARGE PROJECT SUCH AS A COMPLETE BASEMENT FINISH THE CLIENT MUST INVEST THE TIME TO ASSIST US IN THE DESIGN/ESTIMATE PROCESS. WE VOLUNTEERED TO MEET AT ANY TIME TO ACCOMPLISH THIS. THE CALLER ONLY FOCUSED ON THE FACT THAT SHE WAS A WOMAN. 90% OR MORE OF THE INITIAL CALLS TO US ARE MADE BY WOMEN. MOST OF THE KEY CONTACTS ON PROJECTS ARE WOMEN. WE VALUE THESE RELATIONSHIPS AND DO ESPECIALLY WELL IN THE FEMALE MARKET. PLEASE READ THE OTHER REPORTS TO AL, AND YOU WILL FIND THAT THIS REPORT IS "OUT OF LINE" AND DISTORTS HOW WE INTERACT WITH POTENTIAL CLIENTS.

WHILE OTHER COMPANIES WERE AFRAID TO BID DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROJECT, LIFESTYLE GROUP HAD THE EXPERIENCE TO BID THE PROJECT AND DELIVER THE RESULTS WITHIN THE AGREED-UPON COST AND SCHEDULE. THE LIFESTYLE GROUP TEAM ALWAYS WORKED VERY QUICKLY, NEATLY, AND CONSIDERATELY. OUR PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ARE NOW MODERN AND WORKING WELL, AND THE FINISHED ROOMS IN THE BASEMENT LOOK LIKE THEY BELONG ON THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE HOUSE. OUR EXPERIENCE WAS SO POSITIVE THAT WE ARE NOW BEGINNING ANOTHER RENOVATION/REMODEL PROJECT WITH LIFESTYLE GROUP.
Description of Work: LIFESTYLE GROUP COMPLETELY RENOVATED THE PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL LINES IN OUR BASEMENT, AND THEN FINISHED TWO OF THE BASEMENT ROOMS.

WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND LIFESTYLE GROUP FOR ANY REMODELING JOB. THEY WERE EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE TO OUR NEEDS AND ALL OF THEIR WORKERS AND SUBCONTRACTORS WERE VERY RESPECTFUL OF OUR HOME. THEY ALSO ARE VERY, VERY SKILLED AT WHAT THEY DO. ALL OF THEY'RE WORKERS AND SUBCONTRACTORS HAVE BEEN DOING THEY'RE JOBS A LONG TIME AND IT SHOWED IN THEIR ATTENTION TO DETAIL. RYAN HOREN WAS OUR MAIN CONTACT AND HE WAS EXTREMELY EASY TO WORK WITH. HE KEPT US UP-TO-DATE ON ALL THE WORK THAT WAS BEING DONE AND WHAT THE NEXT STEPS WERE. I ALSO APPRECIATED HOW ORGANIZED HE AND ALL OF THE FOLKS AT LIFESTYLE. OUR JOB WAS FINISHED MUCH FASTER THAN WE ORIGINALLY EXPECTED IT WOULD BE AND DEFINITELY WITHIN THE TIME FRAMES RYAN PROVIDED. WORKING WITH LIFESTYLE WAS DEFINITELY WORTH EVERY DOLLAR WE SPENT.
Description of Work: COMPLETELY FINISHED 800 SQFT BASEMENT FOR MULTI-PURPOSE ACTIVITIES INCLUDING HOME THEATER AREA, DRYBAR, ENTERTAINMENT AREA, AND CHILD'S PLAYROOM AREA. THEY ALSO DRYWALLED OUR GARAGE DURING THIS PROJECT.

THIS PROJECT WENT BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED. LIFESTYLE KEPT ME INFORMED ON SCHEDULING AND KEPT ON SCHEDULE. THE TRADESMEN KEPT THE WORKSITE NEAT AND DID A QUALITY JOB. EVERYONE THAT I WORKED WITH THERE WAS CONCERNED ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TREATED ME PROFESSIONALLY AND COURTEOUSLY. THEY ALSO WORKED WELL WITH THE OTHER COMPANY ON THE PROJECT (HOME THEATER). THE FEW VERY SMALL ISSUES THAT DID OCCUR WERE DEALT WITH PROMPTLY. THIS PROJECT TRULY EXCEEDED MY HIGH EXPECTATIONS. THANKS TO EVERYONE AT THE LIFESTYLE GROUP FOR A JOB WELL DONE.

CLIENT PLACED FIRST CALL TO US ON TUESDAY - SAID SHE WAS HAVING EYE SURGERY AND ASKED US NOT TO CALL BACK UNTIL WEDNESDAY LATE AFTERNOON. THEN, CLIENT CALLED BACK ON WEDNESDAY AT 2:00P AND ASKED WHY WE HAD NOT CALLED YET. THIS WAS OUR FIRST INDICATION SHE WAS UNREASONABLE. DESIGN MANAGER PLACED SIX CALLS THROUGHOUT WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING - HE RECEIVED BUSY SIGNAL EACH TIME (WITH THAT MESSAGE "LET REPEAT DIALING CALL YOU BACK"). APPARENTLY, NO ANSWERING MACHINE. CLIENT SUBMITTED THIS RIDICULOUS REPORT THE VERY NEXT DAY WITHOUT GIVING US A REASONABLE CHANCE TO SPEAK WITH HER. AT THIS POINT, WE WILL CHOOSE NOT TO WORK WITH HER BECAUSE SHE HAS EXPECTATIONS THAT CANNOT REASONABLY BE MET. YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF A MEMBER BEING ABLE TO SAY WHAT THEY WANT WITHOUT REGARD FOR TRUE REPRESENTATION OF ACTUAL EVENTS SO WE MUST SPEND TIME DEFENDING OUR EFFORTS.

BE CAUTIOUS OF USING LIFESTYLE FOR RENOVATIONS, ESPECIALLY IN OLDER HOMES. DID NOT HANDLE QUIRKS OF OLDER HOME SUCH AS WALLS OUT OF SQUARE AND SLOPE IN FLOORS AS EXPECTED. NEVER FORMALLY MET OR TALKED WITH CONSTRUCTION MANAGER. WORKERS TRIED TO PASS OFF POOR QUALITY WORK SUCH AS INCOMPLETE DRY WALL, DISCONNECTED HEAT/COOL DUCTS, MISMEASURED WALLS AND SPACE FOR APPLIANCES. FINISHED 1 MONTH LATE. THE OWNER PROVIDES GREAT SERVICE, BUT AFTER MISTAKES ARE MADE. NO QUALITY CONTROL AT JOB SITE. THE OWNER IS THE ONLY REPRESENTATIVE THAT I INTERACTED WITH WHO WOULD ADEQUATELY RESPOND TO MISTAKES OR ISSUES. COMPANY TRIED TO OVERCHARGE. CAN'T TRUST THAT THEY WILL DO RIGHT JOB THE FIRST TIME WITHOUT A LOT OF OVERSIGHT FROM HOMEOWNER. WOULD NOT USE AGAIN OR RECOMMEND FOR KITCHEN.

WE DID MAKE TWO MISTAKES, BUT LET US EXPLAIN. WE MADE ONE SILLY MISTAKE IN FRAMING A BULKHEAD 1/2" OFF THAT CREATED A REFRIGERATOR HEIGHT PROBLEM, BUT WE FIXED IT WITHOUT QUESTION! THE DRYWALL WAS ALSO FIXED. REGARDING THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER, BOTH HUSBAND & WIFE WORK LONG HOURS. HE WAS THERE DURING BUSINESS HOURS SOLVING PROBLEMS, NOT IN LATE EVENINGS WHEN THEY WERE HOME. CLIENT DIDN'T WANT TO PAY TO FIX SLOPING FLOORS THAT HAD SETTLED OVER 80 YRS, NOR DID THEY PAY TO SHIM OUT EVERY EXISTING WAVY WALL TO SQUARE. SO, WE DID AS WE DO ON ALL OLDER HOME PROJECTS - WE WORKED WITH EXISTING CONDITIONS. CLIENT KNEW PRICE BEFORE THEY SIGNED CONTRACT. THEY'RE UPSET ABOUT ONE CHANGE ORDER FOR WORK MOVING DUCT WORK AND PLUMBING HIDDEN IN A WALL THAT WAS COMING OUT, SO MECHANICALS HAD TO BE MOVED. ONE MONTH LATE IN COMPLETION DUE TO EXTRA TRIM ORDERED TO MAKE CLIENT HAPPY - HAD TO WAIT ON MATERIAL DELIVERY. READ ALL REPORTS BELOW BEFORE YOU JUDGE FROM ONE CLIENT RESPONSE.

I NEEDED A WALL REMOVED AND DID THAT MYSELF, ALSO DID THE PAINTING AND REMOVED THE OLD CABINETS WITH THE COMPANY WE WENT WITH. SAVED 2,000.00. FIND SOMEONE THAT WILL WORK WITH YOU.
Description of Work: HE CAME OUT TO LOOK AT THE JOB WHEN HE GOT TO THE HOUSE AND ON THE PHONE HE KEPT SAYING A AVERAGE KITCHEN REMODEL IS $40,000.00 AND WHEN HE GOT HERE HE SAID IT WOULD BE AT LEAST THAT. WANTED $100 DOLLARS TO GIVE ANY KIND OF A HARD ESTIMATE. I FELT LIKE HE DID NOT WANT MY BUSINESS.

WHEN YOU CALL LIFESTYLE ABOUT A POTENTIAL PROJECT, WE ASK SEVERAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT PROJECT. GIVEN THAT WE REMODEL MANY KITCHENS, IT IS EASY FOR US TO OFFER A PRICE RANGE FOR THE WORK DESCRIBED. THIS ENSURES ONE DOES NOT EXPECT TO PAY $5000 FOR A KITCHEN THAT IS GOING TO COST $30,000. IN THIS CASE, WE FELT CERTAIN OVER THE PHONE THE CLIENTS PROJECT WAS AT LEAST $40,000, HOWEVER, WE WENT TO THE HOUSE TO LOOK AT THE PROJECT. THE PROJECT WAS ABSOLUTELY $40,000, AND THEIR BUDGET WAS NOWHERE NEAR $40,000. WE WILL NOT GIVE FREE ESTIMATES FOR THE SAKE OF GIVING ESTIMATES WHEN THE CLIENTS BUDGET IS UNREALISTIC. IF THE CLIENT WAS WILLING TO PAY A $100 FEE FOR THE 13 HOURS WORTH OF WORK WE WOULD UNDERTAKE TO COMPLETE THE ESTIMATE ($7.69/HOUR), THEN WE WOULD HAPPILY COMPLETE AN ESTIMATE. IF THEY WOULD NOT SPEND $100, THEN THEY CERTAINLY WERE NOT PREPARED TO SPEND $40,000, AND THEY WERE NOT TRULY INTERESTED IN SPENDING IT WITH US.

ALL THE CONTRACTORS THAT WORKED FOR THE LIFESTYLE GROUP WERE QUICK AND EFFICIENT IN THEIR WORK. THEY WERE IN AND OUT OF HERE IN TWO WEEKS AND WE WERE VERY SATISFIED WITH THEIR PERFORMANCE. THE CLEAN UP WAS VERY SATISFACTORY.

THIS WAS NOT A ROOM ADDITION, BUT AN ATTIC CONVERSION. BUDGET WAS REASONABLE, WE WERE INTERESTED, BUT HAD TO GIVE A BALLPARK ESTIMATE BECAUSE 2 FEET OF INSULATION COVERED ALL MECHANICALS. ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO GIVE EXACT PRICE UNTIL THAT INSULATION WAS REMOVED AT COST TO CLIENT, WHICH SHE DID NOT WANT TO PAY FOR. CLIENT SAYS WE DID NOT RESPOND, WHICH IS UNTRUE. WE CALLED TO GIVE THAT BALLPARK AND LEFT MESSAGE AT THE HOME NUMBER ON 8/11/03 AT 3:03PM WITH A WOMAN NAMED KIM. CLIENT NEVER RESPONDED BACK TO US. AS SOON AS WE SAW THIS REPORT, WE CALLED THE CLIENT. FIRST, SHE DENIED SUBMITTING THE REPORT, THEN SHE SAID THAT SHE NEVER GOT OUR MESSAGE. THIS REPORT WAS SUBMITTED ONLY FOUR DAYS AFTER OUR CALL. SHE DID NOT EVEN LIVE IN THE HOUSE YET! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LET A CLIENT PROVIDE A REPORT WITHOUT ANY ACCOUNTABILITY FOR WHAT THEY ARE SAYING.

THE MEMBER CHOSE TO REPAIR EXISTING WOOD WINDOWS THAT WERE OVER 20 YEARS OLD, RATHER THAN REPLACE THEM IN LIGHT OF THE CONSIDERABLE COST DIFFERENCE. WE SANDED AND SCRAPED WINDOWS, AS AGREED, ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE BARE WOOD IN OUR ATTEMPT TO REFURBISH THE AGED WINDOWS, THEN FILLED THE OLD CRACKING WOOD, FOLLOWED BY CAULKING AND PAINTING THOROUGHLY, BUT THAT APPARENTLY DID NOT SATISFY THE CLIENT. PAINTERS ASKED HIM IF HE WAS HAPPY. YES, WAS THE ANSWER. THE MEMBER PAID, AS AGREED. THEN, THIS REPORT? WE CANNOT TURN FROGS (OLD WINDOWS) INTO PRINCES (NEW WINDOWS).

PERHAPS YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO DISCLOSE WHAT YOU EXPECT THE JOB MAY COST. I FELT LIKE THEY ADDED 50% BECAUSE THEIR LITERATURE SUGGESTS THAT THE AVERAGE REMODELING JOB COSTS MUCH MORE THAN PEOPLE EXPECT FOR IT TO.
Description of Work: WE ARE GOING TO BUILD A GARAGE WITH A ROUGHED IN ROOM ABOVE AND ROUGHED IN PLUMBING FOR FUTURE POOL CHANGING/DRESSING AREA. THEIR $125,000 ESTIMATE JUST SEEMED OUTRAGEOUS, GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE WERE NOT 'FINISHING' ANYTHING. WE COULD HAVE PURCHASED A SMALL HOUSE FOR THE PRICE OF THIS TWO CAR GARAGE ADDITION. I AM SURE THAT THEY DO NICE WORK. I AM ALSO SURE THEY ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL. THEY MAKE NO PRETENSE OF BEING 'LOW BIDDER'. IF YOU ARE NOT IN ANY WAY PRICE SENSITIVE, THIS MAY BE YOUR COMPANY....BUT A LARGE, BRICK TWO-CAR GARAGE WITH A ROUGH STAIRCASE TO ATTIC SPACE AND BREEZEWAY....NO KITCHEN, NO BATH, NO FLOORING, NO LIGHTING. SEEMED UNREASONABLE. I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED TO BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THE BATHROOM IN THE POOL AREA AND FINISH THE UPSTAIRS FOR THAT PRICE.

SINCE 1999, WE HAVE BUILT THIS COMPANY BASED ON HONESTY AND OPENNESS WITH CLIENTS REGARDING THE COST OF PROJECTS - WE STRIVE TO ELIMINATE SURPRISES AND WE WILL NOT LOW BID A POTENTIAL PROJECT TO GET THE JOB AND THEN INCREASE COST. THIS ESTIMATE WAS GIVEN BASED ON OUR EXPERIENCE COMPLETING VERY SIMILAR PROJECTS. WE COMPETE FOR EVERY PROJECT AND HAVE DONE OVER 500 PROJECTS - IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTINUE IN BUSINESS IF WE WERE NOT PRICED COMPETITIVELY! WE HAVE OVER 100 REPORTS ON RECORD THAT ARE OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE AND WE HAVE BEEN HONORED AS A SUPER SERVICE AWARD WINNER EVERY YEAR WE HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS. THIS MEMBER DID NOT HEAR WHAT SHE WANTED TO HEAR AND SHE RESPONDED NEGATIVELY BECAUSE HER BUDGET DID NOT MATCH HER TASTE. OUR ESTIMATED PRICE WAS FOR A FULLY FINISHED PROJECT AT $125,000, NOT ONLY THE MINIMAL ROUGH-IN SHE IS PORTRAYING FOR EFFECT TO MAKE OUR PRICING SEEM HIGH.

I WOULD SAY THAT THEY ARE A LITTLE PRICEY. I WENT WITH THEM BECAUSE I LIKED EVERYTHING ELSE. I ENDED UP SPENDING MORE THAN WHAT I HAD INTENDED. THIS WAS THE ONLY NEGATIVE WITH THEIR SERVICE. IT IS A VERY WELL RUN COMPANY.

HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU PICTURE IN YOUR MIND HOW YOU WANT SOMETHING TO LOOK AFTER IT''S COMPLETED AND IT MEETS YOUR VISION? RARELY. HOW MANY TIMES WILL IT EXCEED YOUR WILDEST DREAMS? NEVER, EXCEPT IF YOU DECIDE TO HIRE LIFESTYLE GROUP TO DO THE JOB. THIS OUTFIT IS PROFESSIONALISM PERSONIFIED IN EVERY IMAGINABLE ASPECT OF COMPLETING A HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECT OF THIS MAGNITUDE. RYAN HOREN, THE YOUNGEST MALE IN THE HOREN CLAN (WHO OWNS AND OPERATES LIFESTYLE) WAS MY CONTACT THROUGHOUT. HIS ATTENTION TO DETAIL (ALONG WITH ALL THE SUBORDINATE CONTRACTORS WHO HANDLED THE INDIVIDUAL ASPECTS OF THE PROJECT) WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. THERE WAS NEVER A CHANGE OR AN ALTERATION THAT WAS NOT BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION WITHOUT RYAN AND THE ''SPECIALIST'' EXPLAINING WHAT THE PROS AND CONS WOULD BE. THE JOB SITE WAS LEFT CLEAN EVERY DAY. SOMEONE ELSE IN THE FAMILY THAT SHOULD BE MENTIONED IS KIERSTON, RYAN''S SISTER. SHE WAS AN EXCELLENT HELP IN COLOR, CARPET, ETC. SELECTION.
