From our first phone call to the end of the job, Ed, Nick, Katie and Matt of Elite Flooring have done a great job for us.
We decided to refinish the old wooden floors in our living and dining rooms. Along the way, we wanted to replace a flagstone entry way with new vinyl coated tile. We visited the Elite Flooring store and found a large selection of tile designs. Katie and Nick helped us navigate the options to suitable choices. We found their bid to be in-line with others, and we were developing a lot of confidence in the Elite team.
Ed and Matt started on the promised day with the sanding of the floors. The sanding was done skillfully, and the floors were perfectly smoothed, removing scratches and stains accumulated over the years. After selecting from several choices of stain offered by Ed, he and Matt proceeded to complete the staining along with 3 coats of poly. The floors are incredible, with a character they did not have before.
The job continued with the removal of the flagstone hallway floor, repreparation of the subfloor base, and finally the installation of the tile and grout. The result is phenomenal.
During the job, we additionally hired Ed to stretch a few carpets that had become wavy over the years. He was able to do this work without a major move of furniture in those rooms.
All told, Elite did the job on-time, on-budget, and with our complete satisfaction. All of the Elite team are personable and easy to work with. We are already thinking of some more jobs that we will hire them to do. We highly recommend Elite Flooring.
Additional work done on February 28, 2017:
EFS did such a good job with our hardwood and tile floors, we decided to hire them again for replacing our family room carpet. Our family room has an usual stone fireplace, making carpet selection tricky. But Nick and Katie's EFS showroom has plenty of top-of-the-line high value carpet and padding products. We were able to find the perfect carpet to go with the room, at a reasonable price. We also decided to the family room should have a small vinyl tile entryway transitioning to the carpet, with tile similar to the type we used in the last job.
Because we have pets, we asked the EFS installer, Ed, to arrive a day earlier to remove the existing carpet and treat the floor with a Bin sealer. Although we didn't ask for this, Ed also screwed down the subflooring in areas that had developed squeaks. This is something that our previous carpet installers never did. The next day, Ed and Matt installed the pad carpet and vinyl tile in only about half a day. They cleaned up all of the debris, and left us with a phenomenal room.
We are very pleased, again, with the work they do, and will be hiring EFS more work soon. read more
