A customer who hired Up2Date Remodeling for a basement renovation says the contract represented it as roughly a four-month project, and that after approximately nine months the company ceased work with the site unfinished and tools and materials left behind. That customer says the project was largely a one-man show managed by Kevin Lewis, that the electrician, plumber and tile subcontractors stopped coming to the job, and that work Kevin completed later required rework. By their account about 90% of the contracted payment had already been made, the basement stayed unusable for nearly a year, and they had to pursue legal steps to terminate the contract. A 2023 customer said Up2Date remodeled their basement, adding a bathroom and redesigning the space to accommodate a daycare, and praised the work from the paper design to the finishing. A 2023 customer said they loved the work done on their kitchen counter and bathroom remodeling. A 2023 customer said they had used the company for residential and commercial projects. A 2023 customer said they were pleased with the job Kevin and his crew did. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 205227, is active on the state registry.
I rarely write reviews, but in this case, I feel a responsibility to warn others about our experience with Up2date Remodeling so they can make a fully informed decision. We contracted with Up2date Remodeling for a basement renovation that the contract represented as a ~4-month project, supported by a reliable team. In reality, that representation did not materialize. The project was largely a one man show, managed by Kevin Lewis (who also goes by Sean, as we later learned), with subcontractors brought in intermittently rather than a consistent, coordinated team. Nadisha Lewis, his wife, represented herself as the owner of Up2date Remodeling. As the project progressed, performance deteriorated significantly. Multiple subcontractors, including the electrician, plumber, and tile specialists stopped coming to the job. We were later told by some of them that this was related to payment disputes on prior projects, with Kevin. This directly impacted our progress and left critical work incomplete. The original timeline was missed, followed by repeated delays with limited transparency. Communication became inconsistent, updates were difficult to obtain, and progress slowed to a near standstill. Work completed by Kevin later required rework due to quality concerns and lack of attention to detail. After approximately nine months, the contractor ceased work on the project entirely without resolution or completion. The site was left unfinished, and even tools and materials were abandoned. At that point, our basement was unusable, and the project remained incomplete for nearly a year, despite the majority of the contracted payment (approximately 90%) having already been made. Compounding the situation, the permitting had to be formally updated before we could engage a new contractor, resulting in additional months of delay before remediation work could even begin. This experience resulted in significant financial impact, extended disruption to our home, and considerable stress. Ultimately, we had to pursue legal steps to formally terminate the contract and move forward. Our interactions with Kevin & Nadisha Lewis did not reflect the level of professionalism, accountability, integrity or responsiveness we expected for a project of this scope. Trust and reliability are fundamental in construction, and in our experience, both were compromised. I strongly encourage anyone considering this company to conduct thorough due diligence, verify current subcontractor stability and ensure clear contractual protections are in place. Based on our experience, this is not a contractor we would recommend.
Great company to work with. I was very pleased with the Job Kevin and his crew did. I highly recommend.
I have utilized their services for my residential and commercial projects and I must say the service and execution is A1.
I LOVE THE WORK THEY DID ON MY KITCHEN COUNTER AND BATHROOM REMODELING WOULD DEFINITELY USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN FOR FURURE JOBS. THANKS UP2DATE
