Paul showed me a board during the first visit and promised he could match that darkness. By the time they actually did the floor, that color depth was completely off the table. The floors do look decent overall and some rough areas are improved, but the rest is unacceptable and has ruined any appreciation I have for the work. They taped to keep from splashing stain on the cabinets. I saw the tape-it was a thin slice close to the floor. When his employee removed the tape, he yanked the tape upward without paying any attention, ripping the veneer completely off the bottom of my cabinets in multiple places -- much higher than the tape line. Paul later admitted he knew the tape might cause problems when he put it on. But here's the kicker. He said nothing to me about it when he put it on, and said nothing after the damage was done. His employee had to have seen what he was pulling and kept going anyway. No one stopped and said "hey, we need you to look at something." Paul only addressed it after I brought it up myself. I saw the mess when the helper was still working in the closet. He had time to talk to me about it and chose not to. His solution? "Stick a piece of baseboard on it. Nobody will ever know." I'm supposed to glue a random piece of baseboard to my kitchen cabinet and call it a day. I'm proud of my home. This was a lazy man's insult. They were sloppy throughout -- left rugs in my garage where the door came down on them, stain smudges on the door, missing hardware I still can't find. Then Paul tried to charge an undisclosed $75 credit card fee, and my husband agreed to waiving it as a "deal" -- while only seeing photos on a small phone screen. When my husband got home and saw the actual damage, he realized what had happened and how bad it was. The contract, by the way, is handed to you the morning work starts with no time to read it. Your receipt contains language saying you won't sue. I am a 61-year-old cancer patient. I now have to figure out how to repair my own cabinets because Paul won't stand behind his employee's negligence. He had every opportunity to make this right and chose excuses instead. All he had to do was say, "Hey, I'm sorry. I stand behind my work. I'll call a handyman out to fix it." Instead he is walking away to let me figure out how to clean up his mess. Do not use this company.

My husband and I are deeply disappointed with the work Mr Sandless of Bloomington/Peoria performed…read moreon our wood floors. The manager of Mr Sandless assured us the floors would look good through his process of refinishing. When he was doing the work, it became clear that the process Mr Sandless uses could not cover marks or many scratches in the flooring. If you have floor with any scratches or marks, better to hire someone to sand them or replace the wood. The job was so poor Mr Sandless had to give us a discount off the charge for the service, which was still not cheap. I write to save people the trouble and expense of using the refinishing process Mr Sandless uses if they have floors that aren't already in near perfect condition.

We love the look of natural wood and were hesitant to paint our cabinets, but they were badly worn…read moreand needed a serious refresh. After reviewing the options with Brand New Again Refinishing, we decided to tone them to maintain the integrity and character of the wood. The process was incredibly thorough and professional. Brandon carefully masked off the entire kitchen to protect the rest of our home, then cleaned, sanded, and refinished every surface with care. Everything was smoothed, filled, and finished with precision -- including the doors and drawers, which were refinished off-site. Once everything was reinstalled, the alignment and fit were perfect, and the kitchen looked completely transformed. I also want to say how refreshing it is to work with someone who clearly loves what he does and takes great pride in his work. Brandon maintained a positive attitude throughout and genuinely cares about delivering top-quality results and complete customer satisfaction. The final result is a beautifully transformed kitchen -- all at a fraction of the time and cost required for full cabinet replacement. We're beyond pleased and highly recommend Brand New Again Refinishing! Arleen and Andre
