Get matched with top wood flooring installation pros in Gurnee, IL

"I own residential property in Chicago which is over 100 years old and once had beautiful hardwood floors throughout. However, by the late 2010s, the floors were sadly past their prime and those glory days were but a distant memory. Over a century of neglect, changing tastes, and numerous remodels, past owners took the easy way out by replacing missing sections of flooring with plywood, ignoring basic upkeep, and simply covering up the damage (aka their crimes) with wall-to-wall carpet. Blasphemy I say! This trend shall have no place in a city where Mike and his team from Mike's Hardwood Flooring heroically fight back restoring one hardwood floor at a time! Every week, they courageously repair the damage caused by the cheap landlords and cut-rate contractors from Chicago's dark past! Lol...in all seriousness, I've used Mike several times now to refinish my existing hardwood floors as well as repair hardwood flooring that was damaged decades ago and hidden by carpet. I'm anti-carpet / pro-hardwood floor :) Over the past few years, Mike has restored all of the hardwood flooring in my own home as well as in several of my rental units to their former glory! As for Mike himself...he's responsive, knowledgeable, forthright, kind, and down-to-earth. Despite my eagerness to restore as much of the original wood as possible, Mike will actually take the time to discuss options and do a cost-benefit analysis (including the extent/history of damage, type of wood, the science, and labor involved, etc.). Although much of my original flooring remains, it could not always be done economically. Mike doesn't try to upsell you and rightfully steered me towards a less expensive option (of new hardwood) for a better result two weeks before posting this review. Which I very much appreciated! And the same can be said of his team as well, including George and Francisco, who go to great lengths to ensure that the floor you want is the floor you get (i.e. making sure you know what you can and can't do during the first few days after they finish). Included below are several before and after pictures and the results speak for themselves! I was particularly impressed how Mike and his team were able to beautifully restore the original wood on a set of stairs that were covered in a layer of tar (no idea why) and carpeted over. I highly recommend Mike's Hardwood Flooring"

"Excellent Floor Installation & Staining Marcel and his Team did an excellent job installing and staining my floors! I recently purchased a condo and the floors were very creaky and not the color I wanted. After contacting Marcel, he quickly came to my place to give a quote. Marcel and team quickly got to work and provided me with regular and clear updates. My floors were fully replaced and stained within a week. The Team had to put in extra work as there were electrical conduits under most of my floors The floors now do not squeak at all and the stain looks great! I would definitely recommend Marcel to my family and friends and would hire again. Thank you, Marcel & Team!"

"We used Wizard of Wood in 2018 to refinish an existing hardwood floor and expand it into two additional rooms. Four years later, the floor still looked great, so we had floors installed in four bedrooms and a hallway. Again, the results were great! There was lots of attention to detail around a curved staircase and a fireplace. Wizard of Wood was easy to work with, completed the work on time and as quoted."

"ReDesign should be your go to company for your flooring needs. We had flooring installed in our first floor over a year ago and within months the flooring began to fail. I brought ReDesign in for a repair quote and they pointed out the incorrect preparation of the subfloor which was causing the vinyl flooring failure. They provided a quote to replace the flooring that was very competitive and showed me all the mistakes made during the first installation while performing the work. They even pointed out the mistake made in laying out the planks. The pattern of the blanks now are amazing. This company is fair, trustworthy, and true craftsmen. I have complete confidence this floor will maintain its structure and beauty for a long time. If you are like me and have zero knowledge of flooring, ReDesign should be your choice! You can trust them to exceed your project goals!"

"We had a great experience working with Top Bros construction and remodeling. They fully removed our tile and wood flooring and installed LVP that we had provided. They also installed new trim and baseboards throughout, which look great. They were timely and efficient. We are very happy with the outcome!"

"Mike did a wonderful job laying the laminate floor I purchased. He picked up my order, completed the Installation, worked with some very wonky measurements and closets, installed quarter rounds, and was prompt, personal and professional the entire experience. I would definitely recommend him!"

"I had the carpeting replaced in one of the bedrooms. Expo sent me sample photos of carpets by email so I could choose a carpet over the phone. Dina, the salesperson, was very helpful. The installer was terrific. He got there right on time and took out the old carpeting and hauled it away and then installed the new carpet in two hours.It looks beautiful. I'm really pleased with the service I got. I have used Expo several times before and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"My Affordable Floors completed the job on time, as scheduled and did a fantastic job. The floors look like new. What impressed me the most is how well they matched the bedroom floors to the existing wood flooring in the hallway. Their pricing was great and fit within our budget. I would definitely recommend them to anyone interested."

"They were very professional and courteous. The floor refinishing service provided was of high quality and at a very fair price. I wholeheartedly recommend them!"

"Amanda was knowledgeable, professional, and most of all helpful. I would recommend Premier Home Pros to anyone in need of a bathroom replacement or remodel."
