I contacted Matt from Fabulous Floors on November 28, 2022, to discuss hiring them to refinish our…read morefloors. The job was to start on December 19 and end three to five days later. This is why we reserved a hotel room for the max number of days-5. First, because we were given a quote online and not in person, the price changed once they got on-site. The hired cntractors-middle men- sent a video to Matt allegedly showing our floors were uneven. As a result, they went up by 1.25 per square foot. Plus, they would have to sand floors three times rather than two. It's not like we could've gone with anyone else at such short notice because we removed our carpet and many of the staples. We were told they would remove the staples; however, they shaded them down. So we were charged additional money just for them to shave, not remove staples, as we agreed. On day one, the subcontractors left early after only sanding once. They said they had another job to get to and "promised" they would be back on day two and would be there "all day" They applied the wood filler. However, the wood filler wasn't consistently placed on the gaps. There were some placed on various-sized gaps ranging from large to small. When my husband and I inspected the floors, we saw small areas that were not filled. On day 3, we asked the subcontractors to fill the gaps. They called Matt, who then called us. He told us the reason why they were not filling the gaps. Because they were "large," the seal would break if applied. Because he never stepped into our house to examine the floors for himself, he could not see the inconsistency of even the smaller gaps. After they agreed to do that, they applied the stain. They never applied a second coat of stain before applying the first coat of polyurethane. After half a day, they left and said they would not return until Friday. Friday came around, and no workers. Matt said they decided to wait until Monday because they want t make sure the floor is cured 100% The issue is that one. They increased the price after only seeing a video. 2, the subcontractors left early all three days. The third day was a little under a half because of the polyurethane coat. Three, we're displeased because the subcontractors did not show up and didn't call either. When I messaged Matt, I was told they would be back four days later on Monda because they decided they wanted the floors to be dry and 100% cured. This is without them coming to check. Clearly, their subcontractors had a bigger job they needed to get to. Even after all of this, the part that disappointed me the most was Matts's lack of effort to make this not right but better. We are paying over 100 a day for a hotel. Not once did he offer to take money off so to help us, especially when it was his contractors who caused the delay. As a result, our holiday will not be as merry as we hoped.

This company offers to repair and resurface countertops. We received an estimate from the…read morefranchisee in May 2015 after he brought hardened samples of what the finished product would look like. The samples give the impression that the resurfacing material is harder and thicker than it is in reality. The job was scheduled several weeks in advance and the day before they were to arrive, they company rescheduled due to a mechanical problem with the technician's vehicle. The job was rescheduled. On that day, the technician arrived late. We were told that it was due to a traffic accident. The technician spent the first couple of hours repairing the loose laminate on our countertops and the next 9 hours applying the spray-on coating. The actual material resembled Krylon stone fleck spray paint (which you can buy at any home improvement store or Wal-mart for less than 1/10th the cost) with a protective polyurethane coating on top of it. The technician had to come back the next week to touch up a spot he missed and clean up the mess that was left on the top of some cabinet doors and drawers. He late again. Once again we were told by the office it was due to an traffic accident, yet when the technician arrived, he denied any traffic problems. This started our distrust of the company and our reevaluation of whether this product would hold up to its 2 year warranty. The technician did the touch up, but did not remove the residue from the cabinet doors or drawers. Most likely it was b because he couldn't. If the product is really only a Krylon-like paint, then once it dries on wood, it's can't be removed without stripping the cabinets. In either case, fast forward to mid-September - the laminate repair failed. A piece of laminate that had been repaired came off the countertop this evening. We were told once the repair was made, the coating would seal it, but that didn't happen because the coating is too thin to seal anything. (it is literally nothing more than spray paint). You can also still see the original seams of the countertops (one of the claims made by the company is the product is seamless). I could have spray painted the countertops for about $75 using Krylon stone fleck paint from Walmart, so as you can imagine, the $1,200 we paid doesn't seem legit. We would rate this company zero stars, but Yellow Pages.com requires we give it at least one star to post the review.

Want to give a shout out and a very strong recommendation if you need the inside of your home painted. Last week, we had all of the inside trim, all the bedrooms and bathrooms and hallway upstairs in our home painted. We used Damon Gordon painting. His team members were absolutely amazing. There were guys that were just working on trim while others were painting walls and others were doing baseboards. There was even a guy who cleaned up after people throughout the day. Each day, they gave me an update as to what they were doing the next day and left my garage and house so clean. One day when they were here, my husband got in a fender bender(he's fine)and I was very concerned and trying to leave the house very quickly. One of the guys, Dale, was so kind and told me that they would close up the house and leave everything in good condition. As I was leaving, he said "drive very safely." These guys were really great and I highly recommend them for any painting you need done.

Michael, was able to give me a fantastic estimate over the phone after sending in the dimensions and a few photos. We proceeded with the work. Once they were getting set up, he came by in person to get actual measurements. I had over estimated the square footage, so my new estimate was actually much less! We were then able to have them paint more of the house for the same amount because their prices are very fair!! The work is now completed and everything is nicer, cleaner, and better looking, by far, than when we moved in. The painting came out superb and looks fantastic. In my opinion, they went above and beyond when they repaired some nicks in the drywall before painting the staircase from the previous owner moving out. Blown away! They even touched up some of the base and trim that wasn't included in the estimate free of charge to give it that perfect finish. Turn around time for painting about 2000 square feet was less than a day and a half! (Did I mention how clean they left everything when they were done?) Overall VERY HAPPY with how our home now looks and how fast, responsive, and affordable Midlands Pro Painters is!!!
