What is The Construction Life? The Construction Life is a daily routine of waking up at 5am, working out, showering, preparing lunch, sending off the family, driving to the construction site, organizing and preparing for the day's work, building, having fun on the job, wrapping up at the end of the day, returning home, spending time with the family, and preparing for the next day. It's a lifestyle that involves a constant commitment to hard work and a love for what you do, and it's never about settling for "good enough." The Construction Life is about striving for excellence every day.

Customer Reviews
Finally!
Finally a true source of inspiration and resource. Manny has nailed it on the head with this one. He digs deep, pulls no punches and gets to the bottom of everything. I have been in the construction industry for 15 years and it’s reassuring to know that there are more tradespeople out there like me. 350 episodes and counting.
Sean Cillis Renovations
This podcast is fantastic
Hello. I feel like no one puts out more content than this team. With my other favourite podcasts I have to wait 2 weeks to a month for new and this show can be updated daily sometimes. I work at Rona at at out door checkout baby sea can set up. I am permitted to listen to what I want all day and this show doesn’t disappoint. While I am checking out the customers I make sure to share my love for this podcast Witt my favourite contractors that come through the Rona yard. I am a diy, Reno actor watching home owner from the west side of B.C. Thank you hosts of this straight shooting, non political wealth of information podcast.
