We are very impressed with our cottage renovation and would highly recommend Spotlight without hesitation. They stand for craftmanship, quality, attention to detail and professionalism. The trades they employed also reflected their values in regards to quality of work. Spotlight really took the time to build us the customized cottage of our dreams.

We used them for a major basement reno. Very impressed with their continual focus on Customer and attention to quality and detail, nothing was too much trouble and if it wasn't quite right it was fixed immediately no questions asked. From the first meeting to the post completion follow up they were a pleasure to deal with, definition of professional.

If I could I'd leave 10 stars! Spotlight Home & Lifestyle gutted and completely renovated our basement to transform it in to my soap studio and their work is phenomenal. The whole work crew was extremely professional, clean and worked hard. They completed the job in our time frame and worked hard to make sure our vision came to life. Now I walk into my basement/studio and feel so fortunate and blessed to have everything I envisioned for years come to life. We highly recommend Spotlight for anyone looking for renovation work! Spotlight is a company that completely prides on their work and ensure
