We hired Martin and his team to refurbish (sand, polish, stain) our mahogany floors for our 4000 sq ft home and we couldn't be more pleased with the service and outcome. Martin and his team were communicative, reliable, professional and reasonably priced. They were a sincere delight in all areas. Martin worked with us on our desired color, stain and how to care for our floors. The team also accommodated our tight timeline to a tee. They were nice enough to discard our old carpets as well. I highly recommend Distinctive Flooring and would definitely use their services in the future. read more

We love Distinctive Floors! Martin and everyone there has been so pleasant to work with and always very communicative and our floors look amazing! We moved into our place late last year and at the time, our floors were covered in mostly carpet and some parts of tile. We were recommended Distinctive Floors by our realtor. Martin and the folks at Distinctive Floors were quick to respond and came out to give us a quote. We found out that we had hardwood floors under the carpet (some parts were patched weirdly) and other places had cement under the tiles. They were able to match the wood in places where we had cement, patch up any damage, and stained to exactly the color we wanted all in a month. So far it's been amazing and all our family and friends compliment our floors. read more

Distinctive Floors - Part original wood and part new wood! So seamless - Flooring Near Me - Redwood City , California

This is a family owned and operated business that walks the talk of "customer service". I used Distinctive Floors in 2012 when I installed hardwood on one floor and then again recently when I decided to do a Herringbone style on my top floor. Both times were excellent experiences. Not only did they do a fabulous job with the floor, they made the work stress free. The workmen were all very professional and respectful of my property. Some may not consider that an important element, but I appreciate well groomed and polite craft people in my home. Icing on the cake! In addition, Fabi in the office was equally professional and in tune with what makes a remodel experience easier: quick responses, scheduling sensitivities, and empathy. Kudos to Martin for recognizing that details are important and building a great team and company. read more

Martin and his crew at Distinctive Floors did an amazing job restoring the original hardwood floors in our 80 year old house! He and his team are incredibly talented and we can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you Martin and Isaac! read more

We hired Distinctive Floors to put in some new floor and refinish existing ones. They were incredible. We got updates every day, and everyone was great to work with. And the floors look AMAZING! read more

We used Distinctive for our whole house remodel. Great communications with us throughout the process despite some hiccups with our building team. They were patient and got us the hickory flooring we preferred. After our initial stain came out too light (our fault we could not project how it would look from the initial sample stain), they resanded/restained for a fair price. We're very pleased with the final results. Oh, we also had them install carpeting and that was great also. Highly recommend! read more

We met the owner Martin from Distinctive floors from a referral from a neighbor. From first meeting with him we were comfortable working with his company. As promised he began on time, gave us work day updates and finished in a print time. We purchased engineered hardwood floors from a dealer Martin deals with. We had 4 bedrooms and office done as well as baseboards. They also did our staircase steps. We decided to redo our staircase including railings and skirting. Martin referred us to a staircase company he works with. This referral proved great as our staircase came out beautiful. Although Distinctive floors wasn't doing the staircase work they communicated with staircase company while keeping us up to speed. Distinctive floors worked great with staircase company. We are very happy with the final product. read more

I cannot recommend Distinctive Floors enough. They replaced old flooring for most of our house and remodeled our curved staircase. We couldn't be happier! Their prices were fair and we were happy with their workmanship. We worked with Isaac and found him very trustworthy/honest. The service level he provided was top notch. He was very responsive and communicated very well - keeping us updated throughout the entire project. There were no surprises. The whole experience working with them was great. I wish I had this experience with all my contractors. read more

Hire this wonderful team! If I could give six stars, I would. I worked with Martin, Isaac and the crew to refinish some floors on a 100+ year old house in Oakland. They were wonderful to work with around scheduling; they explained everything to me; and they provided well priced competitive quotes. The job they did was phenomenal! I couldn't believe how beautiful the floors could look given their age, and it only took 3-5 days. They were thoughtful throughout the whole process -- pointing out the areas where they wouldn't be able to "fix" (e.g. due to previous staining or water damage) and were creative around staining / finishing. I was so impressed with their work that I had them return a few weeks later to put down new wood flooring (over cement) for the downstairs. Again, they were fantastic to work with the result is beautiful. Highly, highly recommend! read more

Stunning floors! The whole Distinctive Floors team was great to work with. Martin, Issac and team were professional, prompt and worked within our short timeframe to deliver beautiful floors in our home. Very impressed with the work and would highly recommend! read more

Martin and his crew are amazing. They installed all the hardwood floors when we remodeled our house. Martin sourced the floors we had picked out and ordered them at a very reasonable price. His team were super efficient. They worked well with the other subcontractors and finished the instal when they said they would. Their craftsmanship is superb. We needed custom covers for some of the heating vent covers in the floor. Martin ordered them and came out himself to help his guy with the install. They were an intricate install and they took their time with fitting them properly. They stained them too to make them a PERFECT match to the floors. I can't recommend Martin and Distinctive Floors enough!! read more

Distinctive Floors were great! Isaac and the team were very professional. We had a combination of new flooring, rebuilding the staircase, and refinishing existing floors. While the price was a bit more expensive than a few other contractors, it was all worth it. Professional communication, good work, and no hidden fees. We ended up choosing really good floors for a good price and getting them installed beautifully. Details oriented, good vision, professional. Definitely would hire them again for future projects. read more

Martin, Isaac and their team were incredible to work with it. They came highly recommended from a friend and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. From the beginning consultation, guidance with selecting new flooring, installation and planning of the project from end-to-end they went above and beyond to partner with us every step of the way. We have worked with project teams for home upgrades and I would say this team went the extra mile for the project, including, protecting our home so that there were no damages and making sure that all other aspects that required onsite support were met, which included, coordinating a POD drop off, re-installing and refinishing stairs and painting base boards. They worked with our schedule to ensure that we could continue our day to day with our two kids and puppy while they worked on the project. I cannot say enough wonderful things not only about the quality and craftsmanship of the installation for our flooring and stairs. The bonus is how AWESOME Martin and Isaac are, truly nice, genuine authentic leaders. Can't wait for another project with this team! read more

Turned to Martin and Isaac again to refinish floors in our new house. They were, as expected, amazing to work with, and provided excellent advice on color.

This review is long overdue! My husband and I bought our first home and gave it a facelift before moving in May 2021. The previous owners had been there for more than 30 years so we had a lot of updating to do... and of everything we changed, we love our Distinctive Hardwood Floors the most!! We were referred to the owner Martin through our general contractor and worked with him to refinish the original hardwood floors in half the house and replace the floors in the rest of the house with matching hardwood. Martin guided us to the best options for the seamless look we wanted and his willingness to work with our other contractors helped us move in as quickly as possible. Our project unfortunately happened right when lumber prices spiked in the pandemic, but Martin helped us source great materials for a fair price. His entire team worked with excellent attention to detail from demo to the finishing touches and even helped us problem solve a few old construction issues with our subfloors before installing the hardwoods. At the end of our project we got a home full of gorgeous hardwood floors that will last for many years to come! read more

After another "highly recommended" contractor damaged my original custom hardwood floors, I called 8 companies to quote saving them. 7 said they were destroyed & tried to sell me removing & replacing with expensive new floors they happened to have in stock. Only Isaac & Distinctive Hardwood Floors were honest. Here's the result!! I. Am. Thrilled!!! They showed up a tad early (wow!!), ready to work, wearing masks & COVID compliant. They used equipment that collects the dust, unlike the last guys who covered my stuff in plastic; yet every room (to the window sills) were covered in a thick coat of dust. What a pleasant surprise! So professional, pleasant, hard working and fast. Way faster than the last guys. Bottom line: HONEST, COVID compliant, really clean, fast, professional and good prices. read more

This is the second time we've used Distinctive Floors! They are fantastic. Martin's and Issac make a great duo as father and son.

Highly recommend. read more

We had a great experience working with Distinctive Flooring. Martin and Issac were very responsive, informative, and straightforward regarding timeline and expectations. They gave us good advice on where to purchase the flooring and walked us thru the best flooring options given our desired style and subfloor.

Highly recommend Distinctive Floors. read more

Distinctive Floors is a highly PROFESSIONAL, RESPONSIBLE & REASONABLE Floor Company with a great administration and highly skilled floor installers. Distinctive floor did a floor removal and installation of hardwood in our large master bedroom February 2023. I was extremely pleased with the quality of the installation, this was one of the best installations I have seen in my career. I am an interior designer with very high standards and high expectation from my contractors. Distinctive floors provided me with outstanding customer service and installation, from the time of getting an estimate to the completion of the project. Martin himself came out to assess the project, take the measurements. He provided me with a very reasonable demolition and installation fee and oversaw the installation himself. His office manger, Fabi was on top of my project, always available by phone and emails. Martin went beyond the call of duty sending his staff on a short notice to help me meet an installation deadline for one of my project in July 2023. Thank you Martin, Fabi, Joshua, demolition and installation crew. Looking forward to our next collaboration. read more

I was referred to the owner Martin by my realtor Jaime when we purchased our new home. I would give them 10 stars if there's an option on Yelp for that rating. The team was extremely friendly, professional, and collaborative. They really care about delivering excellent product and service. Issac is just beyond amazing and he was so great to work with. He is always super helpful, flexible, and kind. I'm so please with the final product and my floors look amazing! I would highly recommend Distinctive Floors to everyone! Home renovations can often be very stressful and hiring Distinctive Floors was one of the best decisions that I have made during this process. You are in good hands with Issac, Martin and team. read more

I have so many good things to say about Distinctive Hardwood floors I don't know where to begin. From recommending a great store to buy our hardwood to open an honest communication throughout the whole process, to a superb installation, Martin and his crew did an amazing job. They started the job by prepping the subfloor, paying extra attention to fixing areas that needed it (something not all floor installers do). His workers are highly skilled, came to work on time and did a great job cleaning up daily. Our floors look amazing and I would recommend Martin without a doubt for all your flooring needs! read more

Martin and team were awesome! We had old carpeting removed and new hardwood floors installed by Distinctive Hardwood Floors.

I highly recommend Distinctive Floors and will go to them for all of my hardwood flooring needs. read more

I can't say enough about how fantastic of an experience Martin and his crew provide.

Before you make your next flooring decision, do yourself a favor and call these guys. read more

My wife and I recently bought our first home and knew right away that the floors were something we wanted to restore. New to home ownership we were intimidated at the amount of available contractors out there. Martin's reviews on yelp triggered an initial phone call. It was the only phone call we made for flooring. Martin's confidence and professionalism had us looking no further--He and his crew are phenomenal craftsman. They were eager to work and very accommodating to our tight deadline. I'd recommend Distinctive Hardwood Flooring to anyone looking to breath new life into there home. read more

We hired Distinctive Floors to install hardwood floors throughout our new home. Martin and his team were very communicative, respectful of our property, and their craftsmanship was excellent. Even with multiple contractors in the house (paint, HVAC, etc) while they were installing the floors, Distinctive finished the project early and on budget. Their prices are quite reasonable despite the recent price increases for lumbar and other supplies. Our floors look better than we could've imaged, and we would hire Distinctive Floors again in a second. Thank you Martin! read more

Outstanding service from Martin and team! I looked at a competitor, and am glad I steered towards Distinctive (better communications, no hidden costs). They did a great job fixing a few items, and really did great prep work that protected my property and led to an outstanding product. read more

If you're looking for quality work at a fair price and want to work with people who care, you won't go wrong by picking Distinctive. Our floors were initially messed up by a contractor and Isaac came to the rescue. He really wanted to help us right away and found an open slot so they could start work. He was so reasonable with his price given we had already spent a lot of money on it! In the middle they thought we'd have to replace the floors entirely but Isaac and his dad Martin came up with a game plan to salvage it. End result is that it looks fantastic!! We had tricky floors that they managed to fix - they really know what they're doing. I can't say enough about how responsive and communicative Isaac is. And so thorough with planning and explanations! His team on site were such wonderful people too. It has been an absolute pleasure working with them! If you're considering them, give them a call and you won't go wrong! read more
