Reggie was an absolute cornerstone of my renovation project. He originally came on board to help restore the hundred-year-old wood floors in my loft, and from the very beginning he impressed me. He listened carefully, truly heard my concerns and goals, and then came back with clear, concrete, and actionable proposals. As the full scope of my gut renovation evolved, Reggie pivoted seamlessly. He not only embraced additional responsibilities but also connected me with skilled tradesmen who completed their work quickly and on budget. His cross-disciplinary understanding of materials and construction consistently showed in the smart solutions he suggested and the quality of the final outcome. Beyond his technical expertise, Reggie is simply a pleasure to work with. His communication is excellent—transparent, timely, and easy to understand—and his good nature made even stressful phases of the renovation feel manageable. There is truly only one Reggie. The renovation of my loft would not

Reggie’s team did an outstanding job on our apartment – from refinishing the original hardwood floors to glazing bathtubs and sinks and completing all the painting. Professional, efficient, and high quality. Highly recommend their services

Outstanding Experience with REA Wood Floor Restoration I recently hired REA Wood Floor Restoration to refinish the oak floors in my Manhattan apartment, which had turned yellowish over the years. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. Reggie Alston, the owner, is a true pleasure to work with. He was knowledgeable, transparent, and clearly experienced with the best products and methods. He genuinely cared about getting every detail right, and his clear communication and fast response made the whole process easy. The team used Bona system materials, and my floors now have a beautiful, durable finish that looks professional and high-end. Despite the challenges of working in a Manhattan building, they were fast, respectful of the space, and incredibly responsive. Pricing was very fair for the quality of work delivered. I strongly recommend Reggie and his team to anyone who wants a trustworthy, skilled floor restoration specialist in NYC. Thank you, Aviad 5 stars – highly recommend!

REA Wood Floor Restoration did an outstanding job on restoring our engineered hardwood floors. Reggie was honest and exceeded our expectations. It is difficult to find a contractor to show up on time and to be tenacious about making his customers happy the way Reggie does. He was not content until we were completely satisfied, advising and educating us in a way that made us feel like family. In the end our floors are absolutely beautiful. Thank you Reggie.

REA refinished the floor in one room in our house with a floor that is 165 years old. Despite the numerous anomalies in the floor, the finished product looks great. Reggie is a nice guy and a good communicator.

REA did an amazing job on the floors in my apartment, an old walk up. The floors originally were covered in old paint spots with numerous little dings and some funky past renovations. Now they are absolutely gorgeous. These people are artists and I highly recommend them if your floors need rescuing. Friendly, quick and efficient too.

Reggie was very professional and available to chat. He explained to me in detail what was needed to be done without trying to oversell work that was needed which is important. I worked with Zeeke who was very proficient in doing retiling and explained everything in detail and did an excellent job.. One thing I learned is always make sure you communicate clearly and consistently with everyone being involved to make sure everyone is on the same page. Both Zeeke and Reggie executed the project very well and would use them again in future work

Very professional company that left me pleased with the finished product. The owner of the company called me directly and highlighted areas that I could use to maintain my floor in new looking condition. I would surely use them again.

Everything about my experience was professional and efficient. Reggie came over promptly for an inspection and bid price. The bid was very reasonable and they were ready to start the next day. Their office was very prompt in providing me and the co-op management with the necessary paper work. The finishers arrived on time and completed the project within the stated time frame (even a bit early). One of the rooms needed a screen and finish, the other a re-sand and several coats of poly. They got the two rooms to match very nicely and the floors LOOK GREAT. They responded promptly to all texts regarding payment and logistics. Could not have been more pleased (I am not very easy to please). I would highly recommend them.

Reggie and the Mr. Sandless team did an amazing job of repairing and refinishing the old wood floors in our apartment. They made the process as painless as possible and completed the job in two days. The floors look as good as they did when we refinished them over 25 years ago. Thanks Reggie and Damian!

Reggie and his team refinished my incredibly scratched and damaged wood flooring; they repaired horrendous scratches, and fixed deep gouges in the wood. It looks like I've had a $15,000 new wood floor installed, for a fraction of that cost. And all this in two days, with excellent and efficient furniture movers for a minimum of fuss. Would highly recommend.

The floors sere sanded and polished and look great. The workers were nice but kind of sloppy. Several hand marks and scratches on the walls remain. Also there was lots of dust from the sanding in and outside the room. I would hire them again.
Response from REA Wood Floor Restoration
"Our many favorable reviews do suggest that this customer experience with our crew was not our norm. We regret that this client did not inform us of her dissatisfaction with the crew clean-up immediately and only learned of her concern via her review. Had we been made aware at the time, we would have done all possible to correct the concern. We did contact the customer to offer any assistance we could."

Reggie and Jeri were exceptional in their responsiveness and customer service. The new wood floor in our prewar apartment is beautiful. It was a complex pattern, and the installation was perfect.
