Great pricing... efficient! At the time, they bought the flooring samples to my husband and I. Quick pick, agreed on the price, and the timeline. And everything was great and beautiful!!! Definitely going to go back to complete the upstairs. read more

When I first got my floors done I was recommending this place to everyone. But 6 months later they are already having issues.

Had this company scope out to remove old flooring and add new wood and bamboo floors. All was welldone workmanship from the installation, staining, and working around varying floor levels and stairnose change orders. They seem to do all interior services but specialize in wood floors and I feel I got a well priced deal with an applicable scope and pricing for the deal even with the change orders mentioned. Dony and Raul were great to work with on getting a decent deal for the budget and Miguel and Oscar were fantastic and took care of the installation and finish. read more

DBG was amazing to work with. They were up front about pricing for installing an epoxy floor in my very large basement. Communication was amazing and the owner and workers were wonderful and so kind. I will 100% recommend them to anyone needing flooring done and would use them again if I need further flooring work done. read more

I had a really awesome experience with DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring. Really quick response to my Yelp search for installers. Kevin provided the estimate from the car right after leaving my home and answered all of my questions. The quote was pretty competitive for labor only (my request). Not the cheapest one quote received, but really competitive. The team arrived between 8:30-8:45am daily. They moved the furniture as needed. Responded well to a couple of hiccups as well. Kevin remained a contact throughout and was always responsive. Cannot say enough about the team and the work. Danny, Roger, and team were really nice to work with and wanted to ensure my complete satisfaction. My home suffered damaged due to plumbing mistake. This resulted in my main level flooring requiring replacement. The team removed the 4 year old laminate plank flooring (1600sqft) from the builder that I loved installed new plank flooring throughout plus shoe molding and baseboards in a couple of rooms. The trim and walls are ready for painting tomorrow. They finished on-time, were dependable, worked late, cleaned up behind themselves, and offered to put my furniture back. I am a happy customer and will consider them for my basement finishing. read more

Dony and his team were so great to work with! We got 3 quotes from contractors in the area, and while Dony's quote was in the middle, he was the most thorough in his quote. During his walkthrough, he looked at every single thing, gave us recommendations on how to handle certain things (ex- wiring work, when to use LVP vs hardwood, etc). We felt confident that his quote would be exactly what we would pay since he covered everything. His team did a great job. They installed LVP on floors, custom hardwood on steps, and gym flooring. They also do a lot of other things besides just flooring like painting, removal of cabinets, and electrical work. They finished the work within a week which was great and faster than we expected! The place looks great and we couldn't have asked for a better job. We will definitely be using Dony and his team if we ever need more renovations done. read more

This company does great work when they get down to business. You can see that in their reviews. It's a small company and the owner, Donny, built it with his own hands. You get real experts coming out to take estimates and work on your floors, not temp workers. I had a small issue with their customer intake and their customer service but Donny called me personally and we resolved everything very very quickly. And Donny's expertise on floors, baseboards, paint, and almost everything on the bottom of any room in your house is just amazing. He also has a great network of people who can work on landscaping, hardscapes, and anything else you need done around the house. Great company! read more

Dony and his team did a great job on our floors. He walked us through his recommendations and price options during our consult and we felt really confident his team could get the job done. They came right on schedule and finished up within a few days and we are so happy with the result. DB was so easy to work with and coordinated even ahead of our official closing date so that we could schedule the work to be completed asap after close. The work is really well done and the service throughout the process was also great. Definitely would contact this company again for our flooring needs! read more

The best of the business. For complex jobs and special wood floors that need to be brought to life I can't recommend Donny and his team highly enough.

Up-sell, Up-sell, Up-sell. It's been a while since they came by but just getting to finishing this review because it's worth warning people. Back in November, we had them come by to get a quote to refinish the original floors on our 120 year old rowhouse. This company is one those that sends a sales person to give you a quote. Not an actual floor expert who has knowledge in the trade. Our sales person spent the better time of the 45 minute visit lecturing us (he ACTUALLY used the words "lecture" if you can believe it) about the fact that our floors were not worth refinishing. Lecturing. I don't know about you but I don't think that's the best selling strategy. He literally said to us, a prospective customer "I mean, what are you guys doing?". That's another direct quote. He also mentioned his commission. Yes, his commission. Over and over and over again he told us we needed new floors. He even compared himself to a doctor (LOL) and said "like a doctor, sometimes I have to deliver bad news". This guy was full of quotes. We had other professionals with ACTUAL experience restoring old floors stop by to give us quotes and somehow no one gave us the opinion of this floor "doctor". They seem to do okay with new floors but go somewhere else if you have old floors that need restoring and look for people who actually know how to work with old wood and are not trying to up-sell you. I leave you with a picture of our gorgeous refinished floors which were done by honest people with experience. read more

DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring - NOT REFINISHED BY THIS COMPANY! This company told us these floors were not worth refinishing & tried to up sell & scare us to get new floors - Flooring Near Me - Kensington, Maryland

DB Genesis Hardwood is a superb service provider. April 2017 Update: I used DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring again. Donny went to my home, gave me a quote and went back the following Monday and got the work done. His staff texted me photos. Again, this was all done by phone, email and text, without me in the area. Susie K. In April 2014, they removed my old carpet/padding and sanded and stained the wood floor beneath in my parents Gaithersburg condo. As I do not live in the area, Donny maintained excellent communication with me by phone and text, prior to the work starting and after the work was done. Donny even texted me photos of the work in progress and the completed work. My tenant, who saw the previously carpeted floor, was pleased with the quality of the refinished wood floor when he moved in. Donny did what he promised at the price quoted; he is conscientious about the quality of his work and he communicates well with customers. I am pleased with DB Genesis Hardwood, I would use their services again and I recommend that you use them too. read more

I purchased a house with hardwood floors that were ugly but had potential. The floors were refinished at different times with different stain/sealant giving an inconsistent appearance. Also had minor staining, and thinset stuck to the hardwood where there was tile over top. I called Dony and his team came out the next week. They finished ~800sq ft in 3 days, and I am happy with their work. My refinished red oak floors are beautiful despite being a 60 year old house. I inquired with several flooring companies and have no doubt DB Genesis provided the best quality, and surprisingly, for the most competitive price. The workers were respectful, hardworking, and there was little to no dust afterwards. I also felt comfortable leaving them alone in my house while I was at work. read more

DB Genesis was wonderful to work with. Kevin came and walked through the area where hardwood floors were needed. He wrote up an estimate and I had it within a few days. Went down to the store to choose the floors I wanted for my house, the staff there was knowledgeable and helpful. I was lucky and the flooring I wanted was in stock. They were able to start on the project quickly....I got the flooring delivered and the project was started 4 days later. The work was excellent! It was completed in a timely manner and I was communicated with the entire time. I am so happy with my new floors! read more

My husband and I are very pleased with DB Genesis' work. We've worked with a handful of different contractors so far and their communication is BY FAR the best, which is not to be underestimated. The expertise of DB Genesis is hard to deny, plus they do their absolute best to stay on schedule. We ultimately needed the entire subfloor in our dining and kitchen replaced, and to make up for the extra job, they sent a crew of six to make headway. They finished within the time they said they would and the end result was top notch. We also needed a different section of our flooring installed underneath our fridge (mentioned below) once the job was done, and we needed a section refinished because we terribly moved a cabinet that scratched the floors. DB Genesis was responsive and made time in a packed schedule to help us out. Just two very light pieces of warning: (1) Our floors were raised a bit because we had new subfloor. This caused our fridge to not be able to clear the ceiling of our built-in. We asked if we could leave just the subfloor where the fridge sits, and not install wood to make up for the discrepancy. We were told that would be okay; however, our fridge tech said in order to ever have the fridge serviced, we would need to pull out planks of the hardwood to get it out, so he strongly advised against it. Thankfully our fridge needed some work so we had a fridge tech ready to give us advice, but that could have been a major issue down the road if we didn't get the wood installed underneath the fridge. (2) We were told our old floors needed to be refinished to match the new floors. We were under the impression this would be the case once the job was done, but the floors are noticeable different colors. In a year or two, it won't be noticeable, but we were just surprised. Let me stress that could have *easily* been a misunderstanding on our part, but just a heads-up to set expectations if that matters to anyone reading this. At the end of the day: no harm, no foul. It's hard not to do a job like this without any issues and the crew did a great job all around. Ultimately, you can tell what a high-quality job was done and that this company goes above and beyond. We absolutely love our floors and would absolutely work with DB Genesis again. read more

Absolutely fantastic attention to detail and attentive customer service all the way from sales (Jay) to demo and install (Osmin and Luis) and follow-up (Donny B.) and the result is a gorgeous top-of-the-line 9" wide plank flooring that was meticulously installed thanks to these guys! And I am *super* picky when it comes to fit and finish (I personally restore classic cars). On top of all of this - there are no squeaky noises like you find in almost all DIY wood flooring jobs. DB Genesis truly are pros! The DB team and crew completed my 1100 sq. ft. flooring job on schedule and was so pleasant and competent that I wanted to bring them back food and beverages any time I would step out to run errands. Good help is always hard to find, and I found the *best* in DB Genesis and would trust them all day long! Looking forward to working with them again soon to do some tile work. These guys are the real deal. read more

I recently purchased a home and the first order of business was removing the existing floors and getting new floors put in. As a first time buyer I wanted it done by professionals and have called a few places before heading back to YELP reading reviews and found this company. I received amazing service from initial contact to completion of my floors. The receptionist was extremely kind and patient. First time out the gate, as you can imagine, I had tons of questions for EVERYONE. She answered my questions spot on. (I believe her name was Vilma) I requested a quote. The owner came out to the property. He arrived literally the time he promised (no one enjoys playing the waiting game) He assessed everything and provided a quote fairly quickly. I called and spoke with him about the quote and he went above and beyond my expectations describing the process and what to expect. He was so knowledgeable about floors and was honest about the products which helped me to make a decision about the kind of floors to choose. In my opinion he was genuine and really fair. He was responsive to emails and he even helped us cut a corner or two (in a good way) and save money! The installation: The crew, Jose and Christian arrived literally on time! They literally installed per my watch in 5 hours. I thought it would take two days as quoted but they did it all in no time. They cleaned the space, took all of the trash with them and even took some of additional rubbage that was left there in he garage. They worked diligently in my opinion. It wasn't too much noise for me as I was working from home while they installed. I will literally consult their team with any future flooring need I may have for sure! As a new client and first patron of contracted services, I was more than pleased with my experience. A research and investment well spent! read more

Dony and his crew did an excellent job refinishing our herringbone floor. They asked our preferences for details from beginning to end.

I made an appointment. The day of the appointment certain things arose in my schedule that had to be shuffled around in order for me to be home for my appointment. Here I am, for my appointment, waiting and waiting and no one comes. I call to see why. I'm told that they called me (no evidence of this) and that they left me a voicemail (no evidence of this) and they left me a message on Yelp to confirm my appointment. Because I did not actually receive a phone call or a voicemail, and I did not check my email every minute, DB Genesis chose to just NOT SHOW UP. No where in the information exchanged about my appointment did any one make any mention whatsoever of canceling my appointment if I didn't answer a phone call that never came. I am incensed. read more

Job: Refinishing hardwood floors What an awesome company. Great price and even better work. Contacted them by email and Jay came out, did measurements, discussed options and he explained the process.

My hardwood floor has water damage and I sent GB Genesis some pictures of the damage. They contacted me quickly and after a few txt messages, I received a phone call from Dony who explained to me what the issues are. He really understands hardwood flooring issues and how to fix them! I really appreciated the time he took to both call me and walk me through the real issues and how I could repair them myself - a job that would normally cost $900 - $1200. He also sent me his Instagram where he has posted ALOT of videos on how to install and repair hardwood floors. read more

We had an estimator come out and check out our property and he was so incredibly helpful and thorough. We never felt rushed out pressures and he answered all of our inane questions! We decided pretty quickly to use them and scheduled our day. Apparently, there was a bit of a mix-up because they showed up a day earlier than I'd marked on my calendar. The team was really nice and even tried to help me clear out the room where they were going to be working. It took the better part of the day but they were just really fantastic. Communicative but not annoying and were patient as I sent photos of the stain options to my husband. They left everything clean and we LOVE our floors. It did take about 5 days before the smell wasn't horrible, but we'd expected that. We're definitely planning on using them to do the rest of our floors and would recommend them without any hesitation. read more

DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring - LOVE! - Flooring Near Me - Kensington, Maryland

I really can't say enough about how great this company was to work with. I met with Donny the owner who came over to do the original quote. The first thing that blew me away about him was that he was on time!! During our meeting, I asked questions about his company and I liked his direct honest answers. My floors were in deplorable condition and he said "These are 110 year old floors, without completely replacing the floors, we are going to make you happy, but there will still be some flaws we can't get out." I had a previous estimate who wanted to rip out the floors, so his honesty about not being a miracle worker was refreshing. He told me what to pack away, and said his team would handle the rest. We needed to be out of the house for three days while the floors were done. I handed over the keys and the deposit and hoped for the best. What was delivered was AMAZING!! Are there still some flaws in my 110 year old floors which have seen 110 years of use and abuse? Yup, but today when Donny was here to pick up the balance due and drop the keys off HE had to point them out to me! I actually didn't see the areas he showed me, all I saw was an amazing restoration and a surprisingly CLEAN house! Yes, there is some dust, but I had used another company on my old house and I swear I found dust for years. They did a very good job of cleaning up probably 95% of the dust. Lastly, and this was a HUGE concern of mine living in a condominium, my neighbor next door said "They were very respectful of the work hours, and didn't disturb us at all" I highly suggest this company if you are looking to refinish or install flooring. read more

Love my new parquet floors! Absolutely loved the work DB Genesis did on my wood parquet floors, which needed a few square/tile replacements, sanding, and refinishing. They were very helpful in making sure I also liked the color tone, and their communication and explanation of everything were excellent. Really appreciated the great customer service, and recommend their services to anyone looking into new floors. Particularly those who have wood parquet floors in tile format, since there aren't many in the market who are experts on this. When I saw my floors last night, I gasped--I was that happy. Thank you! read more

Convinced us to lay new hardwood instead of refinishing our old floors. Other local companies will do old rowhome floors but they told us to lay new floors and were actually we spent the extra money and did it. This is consistent with other reviews I read on this Yelp page. We relaid our floors, bought our own wood because of a local store sale, saved a thousand dollar, and now the floors look amazing. read more

DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring - A refinished area of my now like-new hardwood floors. - Flooring Near Me - Kensington, Maryland

I began looking for hardwood flooring contractor after my dishwasher leaked and damaged the hardwood in my kitchen. Since the continuous wood floors on my 1st floor needed to be refinished I figured now was a good time to go with a darker color and remove the carpet upstairs and replace it with hardwood. Initially I had about 5 hardwood flooring contractors come out to give me an estimate. Because the estimates were structured so differently they were hard to compare. I ended having to call each one back to ask about certain thing was included in one estimate but not the other. After making all these contacts I was dissatisfied that none of the contractors included all the thing I wanted done. I decided to start over and interview 5 more contractors and request estimates RFP (request for proposal) style. I listed all of the things I wanted done and the corresponding square footage. I also had a questionnaire that included questions like: Are you a member of the NWFA (National Wood Flooring Association)? How will you address my wood hand rails on my staircase? Do you recommend water or oil base stain? What is the cost difference between water and oil base stain? When can you begin working on this project? How long will it take you to complete this project? How long does my family need to be out of the house? Will you move my furniture and belongings out? If so, what is the costs? Of the 5 contractors that I interviewed only DB Genesis answered every detail of my RFP and sent me an estimate within a couple of days. What set DB Genesis Hardwood Flooring LLC apart from the others contractors is: * DB Genesis sanded the handrails on my staircase by hand and stained them beautifully. My handrails are kind of ornate and have some intricate detail. None of the other contractors were willing to sand and stain the hand rails on my staircase. One contractor suggested that a buy new unfinished hand rails while another recommended that I paint the hand rails. * DB Genesis gave me option of moving my furniture at reasonable cost. Other contractors were unwilling to move my furniture and belongings. The first few days of construction they sent over 10 guys to get the project off to a good start. The owner, Donnie, is good guy and he told me that only hires good guys that he's known for a long time which made me a lot more comfortable leaving town while the project was underway. It has been my experience that most contractors try to hurry up and get done at the end of project and don't pay attention to detail, but that is not the case with DB Genesis. Donnie went the extra mile in helping me find a toe kick for my kitchen cabinets that matched up perfectly although it wasn't even in the contract. The finished results of my floors are absolutely beautiful. I am happy that I chose DB Genesis and I recommend them to anyone looking to refinish or install new hardwood floors read more
