    Outstanding experience from this contractor. After a meeting to discuss the design and bounce around on ideas, this contractor set to work and delivered on its promises to remodel my kitchen and bathrooms. Surely I thought I'd need a little bit of working out details here and there but they were able to clearly interpret my thoughts and finished the job before its completion date. Very knowledgeable and have very good customer handling skills

    Awesome experience with Lightning Construction & Design. I have been doing extensive research to locate a company that can help with our remodel. We were looking for company's in person and were initially skeptical of trusting someone based on reviews online. We were met with some of the most courteous professionals that we have encountered in this particular search. We received a quote quickly and were walked through all of the details and benefits of hiring them. At last I feel that they absolutely changed our perspective! They have a clear understanding about what they do and provided me with a convenient service. The renovation done by them is durable and it is totally worth the money. From the moment of initially contacting the company to the completion of the work, it has been a pain-free and easy process. They were punctual, clean, neat and did an expert job. Great people with professional technicians. Their estimate was accurate and the customer care has been great and the finished project is beautiful. I am extremely satisfied with their excellent communication as well. Highly recommend.

    bathroom remodelling
    $2,300

    They say remodels are stressful, but working with lightning construction & design crew was pure pleasure. My hall bathroom was so water damaged for so long there was a lot to tear out and rebuild. They rebuilt it better than ever and brought everything up to code. They're meticulous and efficient and take care to make it look good, too. Keeping the house clean while they worked, answering all my questions, going over all the options, it's a real full service experience.
    Special shout-out to lightning construction & design team for their hard work, quality and professionalism.
    I love my new bathroom and highly recommend them.

    I have been doing extensive research to locate a company that can help with my remodel. And was actually skeptical based on online reviews but Lightning Construction and Design Company stood above my expectations because sometimes when you have a construction project, it is a difficult choice as to who to choose. Not knowing in advance about the quality of work, expertise, or workmanship. Picking the right company to help with the remodeling of your home. I opted in to use Lightning Construction and Design Company based on a referral from a friend who had them do some work for him. They came to my home and gave me a quote for the work that i needed to have done. The projects consisted of electrical, plumbing, and wood upgrades. I’m honored to avail their services for constructing my home. Working with them made me realize their high command on their work and whole teams loves for construction. I just love the finished results that they gave to me as it was a perfect modern era stylish yet practical beautiful home with outstanding patio, I could ask for nothing more and guess what!!! All the amazing work was done on time and within cost limit. I highly recommend and will definitely use again in future. Thank you Lightning Construction and Design Company

    Recently we had our kitchen and bathroom remodeled by Lighting Construction & Design, and I couldn't be happier with the work that was done.

    From the beginning, you can tell that they are on top of their game. They were professional, on time, courteous and qualified. I would work with them again in an instant. They answered all of my questions, listened to my ideas, and came up with suggestions and solutions.

    My sister and her husband had just move into a new home, and hated the way the kitchen looked. Knowing that I had a love for fashion and design they asked me if I would like to help with remodeling their kitchen to make it feel more like a home. After doing my research I stumbled across Lightning Construction & Design, and for some reason the universe told me that Lightning Construction & Design was my best choice. I then contacted the company, and let’s just say after seeing the results of the new kitchen my sister and her husband thanks me every day. The kitchen alone makes you feel as if you just walked into a different home (a luxurious one at that). The customer service is great and they always make sure to keep you updated with every detail and work done. They also work within your budget and give you the optimal results for your money by the exact deadline. My sister and her husband are already thinking about remodeling other rooms within their home, and Lightning Construction & Design is an already a confirmed company in their head to work with.

    We used Lightning Construction and Design to expand and redesign my Master closet in my bedroom. We worked together fabulously. I really liked that they really are a one-stop shop. I was able to get clearer about what I wanted and how I wanted my closet to look. They listened very closely to me and my needs and drew up a great blueprint. The cost was affordable and we were able to get everything done on budget. In the next year, I look forward to hiring them again for my son's bathroom remodel.
