zevo Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 I'm looking to get new hardwood flooring laid and existing flooring refinished. I am aware of the 2 big companies (Buffalo HArdwood and MP Carrol). Anybody have good experience with anyone else? This question may belong in the consumers digest board but I thought I would have better luck here! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fezmid Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 I'm a huge proponent of Angies List -- it's a yearly subscription but is pretty cheap (and they send you monthly magazines with interesting/useful information). It lets you search their database to get user reviews of various companies. When I was finishing my basement, I had some bad experiences with contractors not showing up for quotes, not showing up to do work, etc, etc. I finally bought a subscription to Angies List and from that moment on, every contractor I called for a quote or hired all did perfect work, never missed an appointment, etc -- HIGHLY recommend buying a subscription! http://www.angieslist.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing is there are not many current reviews of hardwood floor companies. The one that was rated the highest i had come out to my house and he seemed real good. He said I would have a quote in a day or so. I have not heard from him since (2 weeks) and no response to my email. I actually hope nothing happended to him.

damj Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Thats the guy that I had come out to do an estimate. And have not heard from him since! I did have to keep after him a bit. What I liked about Jazz is dustless sanding and water based varnish. He worked 2 days, and we were able to get on the floors 2-3 hours each day after he was done. We did most of the ground floor, so we couldn't get anywhere around the house. Jazz wasn't the cheapest, but I liked them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
