We hired this flooring team for a large custom home project in Burlingame (about 5,000 sq. ft.), and they absolutely delivered. This wasn't a simple install--we had a full chevron pattern on the top floor and custom stairs, both of which require a very high level of precision. The chevron layout came out perfectly aligned and consistent throughout, and the overall finish feels clean, intentional, and high-end. You can tell they really know what they're doing. The stairs were another standout. Everything lines up exactly how it should, and the transitions between flooring and stair elements are seamless. No shortcuts, no sloppy work--just solid craftsmanship. As a design-build team, we're pretty selective about who we bring onto our projects, especially at this level. These guys were professional, easy to coordinate with, and kept the job moving without issues. They showed up, stayed organized, and got it done right. This project was featured in Rue Magazine and Modern Luxury Silicon Valley, so expectations were high across the board--and they met them. Would definitely use them again and recommend them for anyone looking for high-end flooring work. read more

A hundred-year old floor, really a sub-floor, installed in 1936 and painted a battleship grey. Now a lovely welcoming, bright, yellow ochre, that's was scraped and sanded and sanded again and refinished to my absolute delight.

I'm writing this review in hopes that I save others from making the mistake that I made by hiring Bentos Flooring. This is an updated review b/c just a week or so ago I discovered some major problems including price gouging and incorrect installation technique that would deem the warranty void. I really hope that my detailed review helps you. Unfortunately, Igor is not the person he presented himself to be when I first hired him. I wrote my initial review right after he finished the installation and hind side I should have waited a few months before writing the review. **Dishonest/Price Gouging/Incorrect Installation deeming the warranty void** I've had several issues with Igor as follows: -A part of my condo got water damage 1 month after the brand new floors were installed by Igor's team so I contacted Igor and explained my situation and he came by and provided an estimate for repairs. His estimate was $3450 for an area measuring approximately 77 sq ft. A few weeks ago I accidently came across a floor company that was putting down the exact same floor that I have in my condo so I asked them to come by and give me an estimate. They are a licensed contractor as well and their estimate was $300 for the materials and $300 for labor. So $600 vs $3,450.00 that Igor quoted me (Igor's estimate is nearly 6 times more expensive). The new floor company told me that they would prefer that I go pickup the material myself since it's such a small job and I agreed to do so. This is where I found out that Igor really took advantage of me. **I found out that Igor charged me 3 times the amount for the materials only. The labor was also outrageous but since I can't do an apple to apple comparison I won't provide that info in my review** -I contacted Gaia because I had no idea where to get the floors from and Gaia referred several companies to me. Gaia is the brand of SPC flooring that Igor had installed for me. In talking to several flooring companies I came to know that Igor shouldn't have used a glue down installation technique and for this reason the warranty is now void. I contacted Gaia directly and they confirmed that this information is indeed correct. By the way, nowhere on Igor's invoice did he provide the name of the SPC flooring, the model, or the color but I was lucky b/c the restoration company had saved a single plank which I used to figure out the info I needed. - I've since asked Igor several times why he used a glue down technique and he has not answered my question. - The reason I picked the SPC floors were b/c Igor told me that they are hard to scratch. This hasn't been my experience so far. Please see attached photo. If you zoom in you can see a huge scratch and I don't know how this got scratched b/c nothing was dragged across the floor and it's only on two planks and nowhere else in my condo. -In the process of installing the floors Igor and his team had to remove my closet doors and reinstall them. When they reinstalled them they didn't do it properly and they damaged my brand new closet doors. -The front entry door had a huge gap between the bottom of the door and the floor so Mice could easily come in and lots of draft comes through and debris from the outside. I purchased a door draft stopper and installed it myself but the problem is that the floor is not even so the right side of the door has a bigger gap than the left side of the door. -The front door locks stopped working when Igor and his team were done with their work and when I returned home I was not able to lock my door. Igor came and fixed this but then it stopped working a few days later. So I had to get it fixed myself. -They didn't finish the gap between where the floor ends by the front door so instead of installing something nice Igor simply painted it black. He never asked me if this color is something I like he just did it and then when he was done he showed it to me. The floor is cream in color and this looks so ugly. It also didn't match the exterior of the house so I had to paint the exterior of the house by the front door. Please see photo. Unfortunately I was very sick when I hired Igor and I didn't have the opportunity to shop around and I told Igor this too. He looked like a very honest and trustworthy man and since I was so sick I didn't have much choice. Now I know that Igor took advantage of my situation and charged me at least 3 times more than a comparable licensed flooring contractor. He has since lied to me several times including sending me an email full of lies. I hope this detailed review helps you. read more

Very professional and informative. We wanted our garage floor polished with an epoxy put over the top. They talked me through the options and I ended up having polished concrete done. Giovanni (the person who came out to do the work) was amazing, professional, and clearly very passionate about the work. Results were amazing. Wifey was incredibly happy, too! Thanks! I'd recommend Bentos for any flooring needs. read more

Igor is the man! We is very reliable and very talented. He is super responsive on the project, always answering his phone. We hired him for a major job in a very large home. Some of the floor needed complete restoration, some of the floor needed clean up and discoloration fixing, and other places needed carpet to be replaced with new wood that needed to basically end up looking like this 100 year old wood that was already in the house. In other words there were a lot of moving parts and it was not a simple job, made even more complicated with all the delays given COVID. Igor did an absolutely A+ job. He was not the cheapest quote we got by any means, but his talent and craftmanship is easily worth what he charged us. Thank you again Igor for a wonderful job all around. read more

Bentos flooring is exceptional. It's a wonderful flooring company. They're easy to work with. They do beautiful work. they're reliable. and they come when they say they're going to come, and they get it done when they say they're going to get it done. They are such hard workers who really seem to enjoy their work. We couldn't be happier with the floors and their prices are fair. read more

This is a long overdue review. Bentos Flooring refinished my wood floors almost 10 years ago. My floors still look great! Igor is honest and professional, willing to resolve any issues that come up along the way. Even though the agreed work was only for refinishing, his team also replaced water damaged planks near the bathroom without asking for extra money. I did not have an easier time dealing with any other construction people during my house remodel. Overall quality of the work is amazing and I could not find a better price anywhere! read more

Igor has worked on two of my properties. He and his team provided exceptional service and floor repairs and renovations. One property had floor damage from a leak above and Igor was able to restore our hardwood floors seamlessly. In the other property, if sanded and revarnished our house and restored damaged wood. The property is beautiful now. Igor and his team are efficient, experienced and value. I highly recommend them. read more

I have worked with Igor a second time on a carpet to hardwood flooring install in San Francisco (plus new baseboards). It was once again a great experience and I continue to be impressed by he and his workers commitment to a quality install. It was a condo and additionally Igor made it easy for me to get the documents the HOA needed to approve the project. Most important the end result was a great looking remodel :). I Highly recommend Bentos Flooring! read more

Long overdue review, but wanted to share our experience with Bentos Flooring. We hired them last year to remove old carpet and install hard floor throughout the multilevel property. The timing and quality of installation were impeccable and one year later with heavy duty usage and kids spilling food and liquids on our floors they still look brand new. Great value for such high quality job. read more

Igor and David were such a great team to work with. They worked on our rental property after the mover damaged the floor. We ended up replacing the entire floor and we need this to happen quickly so that new tenant can move in. They were very professional and did everything as promised and went beyond my expectation. They are very detailed and make good decisions which are not only practical but aesthetically pleasing. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for professional service read more

Really enjoyed working with Igor! We have 2 rental properties and he is going into my contacts! We had old flooring with nicks and sun damage! To make matters harder our flooring was Oak in the kitchen/family room and Cherry in hallway. Igor not only restored the floors but was able to match the stain to create a seamless finish! read more

Bentos Flooring - Great combination of stains to create a perfect floor - Flooring Near Me - Pacifica, California

We originally hired Igor to install hardwood floors in our new townhouse back in 2008. We just bought a new home, and we hired Igor once again to install hardwood floors in two of the bedrooms that had carpet. Bentos Flooring did a fantastic job. He took the time to get wood samples to find the closest match to the existing floors in the hallway, ordered all the materials, waited the proper time (two weeks) to make sure the wood adjusted to the temperature and humidity in the new home before installing it, and finally installed the new floor in three days. The final product looks absolutely amazing -- actually even better than the floors in the rest of the house. Extremely happy working with Igor's company (Bentos Flooring) once again. read more

Igor and his team are one of the best contractors I have worked with - skilled, professional, on time, courteous, accommodating and safe. They performed 2 remodel projects for me: 1 major project of replacing hardwood floor + subfloor for 1 unit, and 1 smaller project of replacing a kitchen floor + re-enforce framing. Igor responds promptly, and is knowledgeable about various flooring options. His quoted prices were competitive. He slightly under-measured one area in his quote, but respected the original quote, and his team even helped pickup extra materials needed. He even shared contact of another builder so we could see his work before giving the contract. His team (esp Slava) are some of the most polite contractors, try best to accommodate any requests such as pattern layout, floor piece selection. They are also very safe - I did not have any concerns leaving my house keys with them. Most importantly, the work is VERY high quality, with clean lines, tight spacing and minimal wastage. Igor also cam through in a pinch to obtain certain soundproofing underlayment which was not easily available. As is often the case with remodeling jobs, there were certain surprises (re-enforcement needed in certain areas, new subfloor, electrician delays) - Igor's team helped resolve and work around my availability. In view of unexpected delays, project was still finished with reasonable time, and Slava came back to fix any pending concerns. There was some confusion regarding pricing for the smaller project, in this case Igor was very accommodating and split the difference. I would highly recommend Bentos flooring and Igor's team for any flooring project. read more

Igor and his team are the VERY BEST. I met with around three people about wood flooring install. I could tell right away that Igor is a problem-solver. He was just as dedicated to perfection on the last day as he was on the first. The team arrived early in the morning and stayed late every day until the job was done. Igor stayed in contact with me, letting me know what the team was working on. I wish all my contractors were like Igor. I'll post pics of the finished flooring once we're moved in. Right now I can show you how carefully the team papered up the floor to protect it while the rest of the house is being finished. read more

I received bid that made no sense. 19 days! to complete a refinish only (not fresh install), incorrect finish, and no mention of the two phases (pre and post paint) we discussed, no mention of repairing a trim price, installing new flush vents, or replacing a number of boards. All of these aspects of the job were explicitly discussed and none were reflected in the proposal. Additionally, when I communicated the need to correctly and properly deal with a paint issue on stairs, I was told the new bid will be higher. No explanation of how much and why, options, etc.., just higher. The absence of rigour and accuracy for a job that will be north of 16K, combined with what I perceived as poor communication was unacceptable for me so I declined to move forward. YMMV read more

I was attracted to Bentos Flooring by the 5 star rating as well as the high number of reviews. But what really convinced me to call them was his gallery of photos many with the same pattern I have in my living/dining room. I grew up in my house which was built in 1931 and I know that the living room floors had never ever been refinished--I was nervous that the wrong vendor would ruin them. I called Igor and he said he could be over to take a look in 45 minutes. True to his word he arrived and looked over the whole house. Unlike another prospective contractor who said that moving furniture was not a part of his plan, Igor said his crew could move big stuff for us and that he could do the job in two phases. The hard part was actually clearing our all of our stuff--especially the closets! The Bentos crew arrived on time and moved the heavy stuff and set to work. Cesar and Eddy worked well together and were constantly vacuuming and keeping the job neat. After a large section was sanded down, we were given a chance to choose the color of the stain--we went with nutmeg. The job went really well and we were always able to contact Igor if we had a question--yes, a contractor that answers his phone is really fantastic! I would highly recommend Bentos Flooring these guys know what their doing... read more

Let's start this review with what brought me to Bentos Flooring. I had nightmare experience with Empire Today. After purchasing hardwood floors from Empire, their installers came on multiple occasions (always late), and discovered each time new reasons why they could not install. On the last visit, I lost my cool and cancelled with them. The problem with Empire is they start the process off with sending their salespeople who know nothing about installation or what your specific installation requirements are so they run into the problem of selling you things they can't install. Then I figured the solution was to contact a contractor who knows what they are doing. So, I called Bentos Flooring. Igor came to my house, I explained the situation I ran into with Empire and he told me, "don't worry, we can help". He then looked over my then carpet and subfloors and told me what he could do for me. I had my reservations after what happened with Empire, but again, Igor told me, "don't worry, we can help". He got back to me the next day with a quote detailing exactly what he was going to do which assured me he knew what he was doing. Once everything was said and done, Igor's guys came to install and no problems came up. They easily removed my carpet, replaced my plywood subfloors, and installed my wood floors. We even ran into an issue with my washer and dryer area in which the subfloor was deteriorated so Igor's guys replaced the damaged plywood and installed fancy vinyl flooring in that area for moisture resistance. All in all, Igor and his guys did an awesome job on my floors. So much so, that I referred him to my sister-in-law who had just bought a home. Again he did an awesome job with her floors as well which she can attest to and she is hard to please:) Thanks Bentos for knowing what you are doing and knowing how to make the customer happy. read more

Igor and his crew installed new oak flooring in my kitchen and pantry and also refinished some 100 year old flooring in a couple of other rooms and my stairs. They did a great job. I wish I had done it sooner. Igor also was able to buy matching stain to my one room that was already refinished. Igor is a professional. I was very impressed with him from the first time I met him. read more

Bentos Flooring was recommended by a friend. I needed our house floors to be refinished and brought back to life. The contractor who performed the work was a good solid fella who new more about floors then anything else. i got some very good suggestions about floors care and how to prevent warping problems and squeaking throughout the house. At our initial appointment the contractor showed up on time, cleaned and appropriately dressed. He clearly explained to me the options and the pricing. Next day I called him and agreed on the terms and gave ok to start the project. The entire process with Bentos Flooring from start to fish was excellent. They have removed everything from the room, carefully moved our furniture, covered everything with protective covers and completely sealed all the gaps so the dust would not penetrate to the adjacent rooms. Within 2 days our living space looked and felt brand new! It was perfectly done and the results were just awesome! I could not be any happier with the service and speed it was completed. read more

Bentos Flooring - Refinished floors at our house looked absolutely fantastic after the project was completed by Bentos Flooring. - Flooring Near Me - Pacifica, California

Super high quality refinishing job for the house's hard wood floors. Igor aimed to please and displayed integrity every step of the way. We had Igor and his team work on a 2 story home and have all of the dark brown wood floors stained, bleached refinished and changed to an off-white. He is really an artist that has a special gift to achieve your goal with the wood floors. We had other contractors tell us we couldn't change our brown floors to an off-white, but Igor said it could be done and delivered on the promise. We highly recommend his work and would use him again. read more

Igor was amazing right from the beginning. He responded promptly and thoroughly with a quote to refinish our hardwood floors, including sanding and 3 layers. His quote was very competitive, and his service and communication were unrivaled. I even made a last minute schedule change due to other contractors working in the house, and he accommodated the change with no issue. He clearly communicated when he would arrive, when the floors could be walked on again, and his work was outstanding. The floors look better than ever, and the sanding even took out the slight discoloration due to the area rug placements. AMAZING! read more

Had really good experience doing business with Bentos Flooring... Hired these guys right before Christmas 2018. Had my new floors laid by the year's end! The whole processes didn't skip a beat. Got a quote, ordered materials and they were at work the very next day after the materials arrived. All in all it took them 2 days to remove carpet, level the concrete floor and lay new laminate flooring. The job was of a great quality too. Highly recommend Igor and his team. read more

Can't say enough about Igor and his team! We moved into a new build last year that had laminate flooring. The builder used crappy materials and did a crappy job with the install. After a year of getting it replaced and fixed and fixed and fixed, we decided to go with an outside company and that's where Igor comes in. We went with an engineered wood and had it installed in a week. Everyone was very professional and were very accommodating. The floors look great and we couldn't be happier! read more

I've used Igor for over 9 years. I've had several other folks do our floors and Igor impressed me as the most attentive, the most careful while delivering his service at a reasonable and predictable price. First he did our soft wood kitchen floor. Wood floors in the kitchen take quite a beating and his finish stood up very well. Recently, we had him bid on doing our entire apartment. It's mostly hardwood. We have kids and cats along with scratches from moving furniture over the years so the floor was ready for refinishing. In order to make the floor even more future-proof, I asked Igor about more durable floor finishes. We also discussed applying more coats than usual. He was open to both suggestions and provided a plan to use the Bona Traffic HD finish/coat and then do a total of 4 coats (including sealant) in high traffic areas and three coats in lower traffic areas. He adjusted the bid and we went forward with the project. It's been 10 months now and the floors are looking awesome. I'll also add that there was a part of the kitchen floor that had some flaking shortly after he was done. I called him. He came over quickly and we agreed on a time when he would come back and fix that part of the floor at no charge. This was an incredible show of customer service. Igor is professional, does great work and stands by his work. He's also a contractor who cleans up after himself which is great. read more

Igor and his crew were fantastic. The pricing was competitive and most importantly the work was carried out efficiently and professionally. Great job Bentos! read more

I don't know what more I can say that all of these other 5 star reviews haven't already said, other than Igor definitely deserves the 5 star reviews he receives! Igor has not actually refinished my hardwood floors yet, he was only out to give me an estimate . He was so knowledgeable, professional & just a super nice guy. He pretty much persuaded me to wait on refinishing our floors because we have kids. He took the time to talk with me about the scratches & why we should just wait...."you have kids, there will be more" You are top of my list when we needs our floors refinished. Thanks Igor! read more

It is amazing when you ran into an honest contractor. We were considering changing the carpets in our rooms. Igor came to our house, did a thorough analysis, and recommended we did nothing for a few years because the carpet was in really good conditions. He thought that the trouble while having a newborn wasn't worth it. Thank you so much, Igor! read more

Igor was recommended through a realtor, we met twice to go over the estimate, which was great to be clear about costs and time frames. The work he did was EXCELLENT and he actually finished 1 day earlier. He was helpful, and knowledgable. He was about to handle the unexpected, fix and issues and my floor is beautiful. He took the extra time to work out the small details. and its the small details that make every job either a success or a failure. I am very happy! read more

We waited several years before we decided to replace the hardwood floor in our house. We met with 5 flooring contractors during several months but didn't feel any of them was the right fit for us until one of our neighbors recommended Igor. It was truly a pleasure working with him. He is not only reasonable, he is very easy to work with, his team is great as well as polite, super clean and professional. We recommended him also to some of our friends one of which already completed the job and is also trilled. A definite 5 stars! read more
