"Fabian and his team did an outstanding job on our flooring project. They encapsulated our existing floor, installed hardwood flooring in two rooms and a hallway, and added new baseboard molding. Fabian is the kind of professional you hope to find—experienced, fair with his pricing, and always willing to offer thoughtful advice. I can’t recommend him highly enough."

"Jeremiah is an absolute gem. I initially reached out about refinishing the floors of my new home, which ballooned into ripping up the kitchen floor and replacing, building out a new laundry closet, and giving the kitchen a glow-up. He is hardworking, professional, is very thoughtful about the quality of the work, and comes when he says he will. "
