Upon the recommendation of my daughter, I hired Gerry and Daryl this year to renovate the kitchen. Since I was trying to sell the house, time and money were of primary concern. Despite using "pre-fab" cabinetry to keep the costs down, Gerry managed not only to make them work in an older home where NOTHING was "standard size", he made it look like a custom job, and at a fraction of the price! I was more than impressed with the results and evidently others agreed with me. The house sold shortly thereafter and I couldn't be happier. I was also pleased with how clean they left it afterwards and the fact that Gerry was constantly calling me with progress updates since I wasn't actually living there at the time. He most certainly lived up to the reputation my daughter had raved about and I would certainly highly recommend him as well.
I would highly recommend Lamberts Contracting and give them 5 stars across the board.
I first had the pleasure of hiring Gerry almost 25 years ago when he built my totally awesome multi-level cedar deck. As I would discover again and again over the years, the final product was always even better than I had expected. I was extremely impressed with the quality of workmanship and the fact that the backyard was almost pristine when the work was completed. Most importantly, I was pleasantly surprised when I received the final bill.
Over the years, I had hired Gerry for a number of small renovations and the results were always the same. I also recommended him to family and friends and always received raves about the work he did for them.
When a fire gutted my home a few years ago, there was no one else I trusted to do the reconstruction. It was truly a collaborative experience. When it came time to make decisions, Gerry would always provide me with alternatives, pointing out the pros and cons of each, as well as the costs involved. Not only did he replace what was destroyed by the fire, he totally changed the layout of the master bedroom to include a walk-in closet and walk-out patio door, altered the main bathroom to include a corner whirlpool tub, added a glass wall shower stall that is truly stunning, built a sun-room addition with built-in floor to ceiling pantry and a massive cold cellar underneath, changed the entrance-way to make room for a much-needed powder room and was able to alter the basement bathroom to include a whirlpool tub and linen cabinet. But the most amazing part of the renovation was what he did with the kitchens, and this is where Gerry truly is a master. The upstairs kitchen now includes a breakfast bar and en-suite laundry room and has multiple times the cabinets and counter-top space it had before and I'm still in awe every time I walk into it. The piece de resistance was what he did with the basement kitchen. It truly is a work of art and, combined with the new great room it looks over, makes the basement look like a high-end condo unit, making you forget you're even IN a basement.
When the basement recently flooded, Gerry was the first call I made. The work he and Daryl did were once again up to their usual standards. The quality of workmanship, price, length of time it took to complete and clean-up practices have not diminished in the least. Most importantly, Gerry once again offered up several options to preclude future flooding which ultimately involved the installation of weeping tiles and a sump pump, which have ensured my basement has stayed dry, despite the many storms we have endured since.
If you need a contractor, I strongly urge you to call Gerry. You will be happy you did.
3 generations of Lamberts worked on removing and replacing my deck. They all worked hard and efficiently. We have received compliments on the good work they did. The suspended ceiling was done quickly with a minimum of mess for clean up. Daryl offered some suggestions which proved useful with respect to the lighting. He also came up with a tidy solution to our outdoor landscape problem. All in all, a good company to deal with who provide fair and accurate pricing for each job. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a professional job done in a timely manner with a fair price.
Gerry and Daryl are very timely and friendly on the job, offering up many suggestions and idea's. Quality of workmanship is excellent. Their diversity in skills and experience in so many area's was duly observed. We enjoyed using Gerry and his son, would use them again and recommend them whole-heartedly!
I have to rave completely about how impressed we were with Lamberts contracting here in Brampton! They were professional in every way. the quotes given for the work was fair and honest for the amount of work done!!

Thanks to you both! it really was a pleasure!! will remember to tell all our friends about you guys and hope, even though you guys are so busy, we may be able to hire you again in the near future. thanks Gerry and Darryl

Lambert’s Contracting provided good service while renovating the bathroom. They were dependable and finished the job as anticipated. Gerry made several suggestions along the way to enhance the renovation and I was pleased in the end that I had taken his advice. Definitely a beautiful job.
Gerry and his son did part of a basement bathroom reno for me, the tough part. They framed and installed a new tub/shower insert in an existing room and then tiled the floor. While I could have done it myself, they discovered a few subtlties in the job that were not covered by the instructions and that would have caused me significant grief if I had had to think my way around them on my own. With their experience, and the fact there were two of them, it was just part of the job and didn't delay things at all.
They were courteous, very reasonable in price, showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves and were, overall, a pleasure to deal with. On top of that, the new nistallation looks fabulous. Thanks Gerry! I'll definitely be calling if I need more work done!

I'm extremely pleased with the renovations that Gerry Lambert and his son just completed in my home. Gerry's quote was bang on except for a few little extras that I asked him to do. He takes great pride in his work, shows up exactly when he says he will and is extremely trustworthy. I've had problems with contractors in the past who were not as professional as Gerry and it is no wonder that Lamberts Contracting has once again received the award for best contractor!
This was my first experience with doing renovations and I was nervous. You place your trust in someone to enter your home and do a good job. We'll Gerry and Darryl are exceptional contractors. They communicated everything perfect, they understood what I wanted and even suggested things that would be better for the job. Their craftsmen ship was outstanding , they missed no detail they caulked and siliconed everything perfect. My shower door was a challenge as the supplier made errors but Darryl installed it perfect. My husband purchased the grout for the floor and when Gerry started the grouting he noticed the shade was off. He did not continue until he contacted me and he was right, thank you . Gerry and Darryl take pride in their work and it shows. They were a pleasure to deal with and I would hire them in the future for more renovations. I would recommend to anyone! My husband and me were very happy with job. Thank you Gerry Lambert! Oh I forgot to mention my bedroom door was so tight to the floor and every day it bothered Darryl so on the last day Darryl took my heavy door door and sanded and shaved off the bottom so you could open it completely this was not part of the Reno an imperfection from a previous installer! Thanks!i
I hired this team after reading reviews from this site. Most people will find this surprising but you're welcome to come over to see with your own eyes. The wood flooring work was done well! Good job there!
Extremely dissatisfied with nearly everything else that happened at our condo. It took me nearly 6 months to write this review since I would just like to make everyone aware and not take a blind decision like I did.
Here is what happened: 2 Main reasons which talks miles about what went wrong.
1. Before we moved in to the condo, I requested time from the sellers and set up a time with Gerry to show him my project and get measurements and estimates. It worked perfectly and I purchased just as recommended. A Home Depot delivery was organized with strict timelines. During installation time, the bathroom counter tops in both bathrooms were of incorrect dimensions even though they were purchases exactly as per the recommendations. I had to take both back and bring new ones in my small car and no assistance. And guess what? In the invoice he charged me for "time wasted" since he was waiting for me to bring the replacement. And how much? $300!! First, I paid for delivery which was wasted then my two trips and plus pay for waiting period!! Is this acceptable to anyone? I paid it without asking a question.
2. Have you ever come across a kitchen sink replacement or bathroom vanity replacement without sealing the edges? There was no silicone/caulking done around the kitchen sink around the vanities in both bathrooms.
So, for me, he is nothing but a "Bad Experience"!!

Lamberts Contracting has received complaints from their suppliers and/or creditors
Complaint: we were hired to manufacture and install new kitchen cabinets for this company, the first problem we experience on site by Gerry Lambert was, our cabinet installer, tom bland was accused of damaging an exterior night lite, Gerry took a 165.00 from the balance and never replaced the fixture to the homeowner.(RIPPED OFF) a second complaint by Gerry Lambert was our cabinet installers had damaged the wooden floor, mind you Gerry had a crew of workers including himself working on an unprotected floor, he took an additional 800.00 of our balance and never replaced anything. (RIPPED OFF) further Gerry had phone us and requested an additional process to the cabinetry (antiquing) the cost mention over the phone was 1040.00.we were giving the green light to go ahead and upon settling up the account he refused to pay for it claiming it was included in the original price. this company is bad news, the man is out to rob working people working for a living, shame on you Gerry for taking this bad attitude with other hard working human b beings.
Reply From Lamberts ContractingTheres more to this review than meets the eye. clareville has built many kitchens over many years and was always paid 100 % and i never haggled over the price.Joe faxed me the figures for the last kitchen which was what i expected. when i went to pay he wanted 1000 extra and he didnt know what for. he said he threw out the paperwork. I said if you can justify it i will pay.He never mentioned about the glazing. he is mad at me for not paying and is looking for excuses. If i was so bad why did he build 100 kitchens for me Look at all my reviews to see i am a caring contractor. The Last kitchen was years ago . Gerry
