I was told by someone else that I needed to remove the existing floors in my Manhattan condo and install new ones at an estimated cost of $15000! Barry said he would sand, scrape & refinish the existing floor for $4000. He had come prepared to give an estimate for installing new floors but convinced me that there as a better & much cheaper alternative. It wasn't just the price that sealed the deal. Barry was very courteous, honest and professional in his dealings. He did an amazing job. The floors look beautiful. Highly recommended.

Barry was incredibly wonderful to work with. He was always on time. He was very patient and understanding when I freaked out about the stain I had picked out. He allowed me to sample different stains until I was happy. He doesn't send other employees to do the work. The man who gives you the quote (Barry), does the work (Barry). Also, he said it would be done in five days and it was done in five days. I've always had a problem with time estimates with most other contractors. He comes by himself and with others when the work load demands it (moving furniture). Needless to say, my husband and I were very happy with Barry and Barry Flooring. The floors look great. we hadn't had them done for 36 years so he had his job cut out for him. Oh, and did I mention he was kind and had a great sense of humor? A lot of people don't care about that but I do. Go with Barry Flooring. You won't be disappointed.

Every time I look at Barry's job, I get angrier and angrier. He charged me for things that he didn't do (filling holes behind baseboards), incorrectly installed the baseboards (uneven), and lied about pre-existing damages and charged me extra to fix. The worst thing he did was to install the baseboards without Quarter Rounds; he bullied my wife into paying him by telling her that we didn't need Quarter Rounds. I would take him to court, but not worth the effort.

I met with Barry for a quote and immediately he was giving me ideas, explaining the scope, and pointing out other existing defects in the floor that I missed (I’m savvy around the house and tools). He was honest and willing to work with our timeframe and budget. That night we settled on the job and the next morning he was assisting with getting all the documents to my condo board (which was hard for me at work). Barry and his team worked quickly and kept me in the loop when I called to check in. He’s an easy-going, honest worker and I highly recommend him for your next flooring project

Work done did not completely in line with what was agreed to be done. Floor was not level in places where it should have been. When checking behind the work persons, areas that were supposed to be sealed up were not . There was placement of materials on a existing furniture instead of the floor. The floors did LOOK fine but the constant needing to check behind and finding things not done properly was concerning.

I hired Barry to re-stain over a previous stain color I didn't like from a previous job, to install a custom wood accent wall & install shelves in closets. Barry came right away when I was ready to have him take a look at the project in order to give me a estimate, which was wonderful. He was also very responsive to texts, even while he was away. He came the days she said he would come to work on the project. Not many contractors are responsive to calls/texts or even come the days the say they would. He did a wonderful job on the wooden accent wall, i know it was a challenging project, and I am a picky client, but he took the time out to listen to what I wanted to create. He did a good job on staining the floors as well. There were a few spots on the floor missing the gloss finish, but Barry didn't give any push back and didn't hesitate to come back to correct the job. The only thing I would like to point out is that I found his price to be quite expensive for the type of project. His work is good and he listens to your feedback and what you want done, but his price is expensive. I didn't question it with him or ask for a lower price, as I had a bad experience from previous contractor who left my job undone, and I was desperate to just have it completed and done and over with, so I paid the price. But did find it to be a bit high. Otherwise, his work is good, takes feedback from you, and cleans up when he is done.

My floor looks good until you walk on certain parts of the floor. It was poorly sanded therefore it is now rough to the touch. I will have to do it over again.

Make sure you get in writing what Barry is doing. he is very misleading . He says one thing and does another. His price was very high for what he actually did.

I was purchasing a 10 year old condo with slight water damage to the hardwood floors. Since I was still going through the purchase process when I contacted Barry, it was over a month from his original estimate. He was very patient with me and when I was finally ready to start he made me a priority and started right away. He repaired & refinished the living room, kitchen, entry hall and 2 bedrooms. He was very thorough and the finished product was wonderful. I highly recommend Barry for your flooring needs!

Barry responded very quickly. He came to the house when he said he would. We had an area that needed wood added because we took down a wall. We also had different types of wood. Some was pre-stained wood when originally installed. Some was badly worn from wear and dog accidents. When the work was complete you could not tell that we had different types of wood or that some of it was just added. We were very happy with his work, his crew and his attitude to work with us.

He is located not far from our home so it was great to work with someone from the neighborhood. He did an excellent job on our floors while also moving the furniture into our garage and then back when the job was complete. We would definitely hire him again.

I recommend Barry Restoration for floor refinishing. Barry responded promptly, answered all questions, started on schedule, worked very hard and did a great job and finished quickly. My only issue was that I did not get a final walk-through because I paid as soon as second coat was applied, to spare Barry making an additional trip back, and so my painting contractor had some minor quibbles with sawdust residue on walls in a couple areas. Minor issue, but final walk-through after floors are dried should not be omitted. Overall, great job! Recommended.

Barry did an exceptional job, and was prompt. He came as stated and completed the project as agreed. Also move furniture before and after the project was complete. He did above and beyond of what required and would highly recommend. He restored my faith in using a service like a HomeAdvisor to reach a Pro.

Barry did a GREAT job. He is reliable, a true professional who takes pride in his work. We are THRILLED with our floors. Most importantly, he had the patience to deal with a difficult Condo Board and met all their demands in order to do our job. So happy that we hired Barry. He is simply great!

Professional service, provides an honest assessment with reasonable pricing. Was willing to accommodate our urgent schedule during the holiday season. The floor refinishing was money well spent, it greatly increased the aesthetics of our home improvements.

We hired Barry to repair wood flooring in our dining room and kitchen which were severely stained from dog urine (work involved sanding, replacing damaged boards, and then coating. We got a few quotes; Barry's was the lowest, and based on that and the other reviews we saw online, we hired him. We had a bit of a hiccup at first; the person Barry sent over started replacing the damaged boards which ones that did not, in our view, match well with the remaining boards. We emailed Barry and showed him pictures of the work. He got back to us immediately, agreed with our assessment (without any argument) and said it would be rectified. The next day, the worker came back and replaced the boards with ones that matched our existing boards. So the work ended up taking an extra day to complete, but the result was terrific. The floors look as good as new. We'd highly recommend Barry for flooring work and will use him again in the future if the need arises.

Barry is very reliable and professional. He did the work in a timely fashion. The one reservation we had was that, while we initially preferred semi-gloss, Barry recommended matte finish. We followed his recommendation without asking to see samples of each of the finishes. We wish we had. The floor looks beautiful but does not shine. We are liking it more as we get used to it.

Barry refinished our stairs that were in pretty poor shape. I was thrilled with the job he did. It took them longer than estimated but they kept with it. The stairs look better than I imagined. The price was good. I would definitely recommend him. Communicating to set up the appointment was a bit difficult but it was over a holiday weekend. With that said he did the job he said he would on the day we scheduled.

I hired them for sanding and one coat of poly-oil throughout a vacant apartment (except kitchen and bath). It was expensive, but they did a very good job. However, they rushed it (doing it all of it in one day), so the hallway in my building stunk of poly all night, disturbing the neighbors. The floor looks beautiful, and they cleaned up very well.
