    Did a great job! Came out promptly to provide the estimate and came out to do the work each day until completed. I highly recommend!

    I chose Olson after the positive reviews I read. Jennifer was great and answered all of my…read morequestions. She was patient with me and I did not feel pressured to make a quick decision. I came in on a Sunday and she was able to come out right away to get measurements. I appreciated the entire team contacting me every step of the way. I received a call within a week that my carpet was in and to schedule install. The Friday before my install I received a courtesy call on time window and what to expect. I received a call when the installers were on their way. They were friendly and efficient and left my home clean. I would recommend Jennifer and Olson rug for your flooring needs.

    As you can tell from my profile, I don't write many reviews. But I had to stop, collect my thoughts…read moreand write about our experience with Jennifer Pyle at Olson Rug in Downers Grove. In a single word: Phenomenal!! We went in to finally replace carpet that had been in our home since it was built, having now seen it day and night from working at home during the pandemic. We were replacing flooring in the living, dining and family rooms, as well as a 2nd floor hallway and stairs, as well as painting those walls - so not a small investment. And even with lots of online research, I still had tons more questions, not wanting to make any mistake that I'd have to live with for a long time. I was at a stage where I had to see and put my hands on some samples before purchasing. Enter Jennifer..... We went to the showroom; she was friendly, personable, professional, knowledgeable, answered all of our questions (and asked some we hadn't thought of), navigated us around brands and options; and was amazing in turning our vision into reality, including moving forward with actually purchasing patterned (yes, patterned) carpet for those spaces! (Anyone who has been conditioned to always go for safe, neutral single colors in wall to wall carpet, knows the apprehension in doing this...) She came out to get measurements, with samples that helped us choose the best colors for the lighting and coordinate with the incoming paint color. I was extremely impressed when it came time to order - it was clear that she was very experienced in knowing how to efficiently account for pattern matching. When you're paying by the square foot, that matters! Ordering was efficient, delivery was on time; and the installers were Exceptional. We had some big, heavy furniture pieces to move in some of these rooms, even with the small stuff taken out. To this day, I still do not know how some of those pieces got moved....but they got it all moved, carpets laid down and finished all of the spaces, in One Day. They were professional, courteous, efficient, respectful and cleaned everything up when the work was done. As far as the results: I could not be more pleased! Each of the choices was absolutely spot on. Attaching a few photos here; they don't completely do it justice, but a small sample of how patterns transformed those spaces. And as for the carpeting on the stairs..... not only was the install amazing, but the comfort.... it is the first time ever that I find myself actually taking off my shoes and socks to just experience walking on it!! It seems goofy, yes; but in these times when we're spending so much time inside our spaces, the ability to step outside the home office, and onto Instant Zen, was a totally unexpected and welcome surprise. Will Definitely go back when it's time to work on bedrooms!

From start to finish, the experience was excellent. Johnny, the owner, was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and flexible with scheduling. During the initial assessment, the team listened carefully to my ideas and concerns and offered thoughtful solutions. They even custom-matched and installed a broken baseboard piece and supplied quarter rounds I didn't have--they went above and beyond what I expected. The project was completed efficiently in two days, and the crew was detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and respectful of my condo's HOA guidelines. They were patient as I worked through approvals and logistics, and they did a great job cleaning up both my unit and common areas. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the workmanship and overall service. Creative Floors delivers excellent results at competitive prices, and I would highly recommend Johnny and his team for any flooring project.

Creative Floors not only met my expectations... they completely surpassed them. The entire process was unbelievably easy. Ordering was straightforward, pricing was transparent, and Johnny wasted no time getting my condo measured. Their responsiveness alone sets them apart--every question I had was answered quickly, and the scheduling was handled like clockwork. When installation day came, Jose and the rest of the team were fantastic. Professional, efficient, respectful of my space, and clearly skilled at what they do. They got everything done within my narrow timeline without cutting corners, and the finished floors look phenomenal. If you want beautiful flooring, stress-free service, and a team that genuinely delivers on their promises, look no further. Huge thanks to Johnny, Jose, and the entire Creative Floors crew for making this project so smooth and successful. I couldn't be happier with the results.

    Highly recommend JP Hardwood Flooring!…read more Johnny came out to my house and gave me an estimate to refinish all of my hardwood floors the same day. He does charge more than a few other quotes I received, but his rates reflect the quality of his work. He is very responsive and laid down all of the stain options I was looking at in 4 different rooms throughout my house so I could really see how the color looked in different lighting conditions. He was also able to seamlessly fill in all of the cracks in our floors making them look brand new and did the entire house in less than a week! Make sure you do your research on whether or not you want Synteko for your finish - we ended up going with a water-based finish since we have a dog and little babies crawling on our floors and didn't want to risk the toxins, but I would definitely trust Johnny with the finish if you're interested in it. Finally, about a month after moving in, one of our stair treads broke off and Johnny was able to come and replace it in a matter of days - he asked for the measurements ahead of time, so when he showed up at 8am, he already had the tread pre-cut and was done with everything within the hour. His work is truly phenomenal and I would recommend him for any hardwood needs you have!

The work was done efficiently -- they replaced the carpet on our stairs with hardwood, and the color match to our floor was nearly perfect. We were impressed with the outcome; it truly exceeded our expectations. Johnny is incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and offered fair pricing. He was also very responsive throughout the entire process. Our stairs and floors look fantastic -- I highly recommend Johnny and his team!

They were also flexible on scheduling and very accommodating. Throughout the entire process, the team demonstrated a remarkable level of care and professionalism.

Once they completed the project, the transformation of my hardwood floors was simply remarkable. The floors looked better than I could have imagined, with a beautiful shine and a smooth, even finish.

Two guys handled the work - also great interactions with them. They helped us find a color that we liked. We were mostly happy with the finished floors, but it wasn't perfect. There were a small number of spots that had something bumpy embedded. In the closets, they were sloppy with the corners and didn't put as much care as the more visible parts of the house - it's true that people aren't studying the corners of closets, but we didn't love that. To me, and true 5 star business would do their best to deliver 100%.
