We love the way our cherry wood flooring came out. It's 20 years old and was faded and scratched. The crew was a pleasure to work with and they made our floor look brand new. Oves was wonderful too very responsive to our needs. read more

Oves was very personable, professional, and got the job done efficiently. Was able to call him for an estimate for some flooring repair in a bathroom and small area in the dining room. He had availability the same week and was even able to get the work done the next day after the estimate. Very satisfied with the work they did and at competitive pricing too! Highly recommend "The Guru" for any of your flooring needs. read more

Oves and Oscar were excellent to work with and I'm so happy with our refinished floors. Our old hardwood was in desperate need of refinishing but I was nervous to take the plunge and dreading the hassle that goes with home remodels. Oves was priced competitively, super flexible to accommodate my scheduling changes and finished 1 day ahead of schedule due to Oscar's excellent work and attention to detail. He protected surrounding areas of our home to limit dust and we couldn't be happier with the results. You can't tell that certain parts of my floor were so worn it felt like you could get splinters! I chose a natural stain to highlight the woods original look. Thank you Oves and Oscar! read more

We called them to help with soft spots in the flooring as the laminate tongue and groove broke off in a couple areas. Oves was very helpful and honest in trying to figure out the best way to fix. Ludwin and Walter did an excellent job! Floor boards were replaced and it all looks great. Team showed up early, got the job done by end of day and cleaned up the areas they worked in both inside and outside the house. So professional! Very happy with the job they did and highly recommend. read more

Oves, would you like to explain why our laminate floors were installed directly on our concrete foundation without a moisture barrier? Is this how you install flooring? Or was this just a step you skipped in our home? This is a basic and necessary step in any floor installation. Our floors which should have lasted 15-20 years lasted less than 3 years due to warping, peeling cracking from the lack of a barrier between the foundation and the floors. This was something that was not visible to us so we were unaware at the time of installation. Our flooring was a huge expense for our little family. And because Oves and his crew cut a very basic/important step our floors are ruined throughout our entire house. Disappointing and disgraceful ser read more

Great work, quick appointment turnaround, great communication, competitive bid, excellent craftsmanship. Loved Ove's banter and pics of his cat. Very personable. I was a little worried about finding someone to repair water damage on my hardwood floor since it wasn't a big flooring project but it had to get done as it was right in the entry way where the floor had buckled up. You cannot even see where the repair was done. Amazing work. The guys worked so hard on this and it shows. Would use them again and highly recommend. read more

Fantastic experience! Ove was able to check out my floor and give me a quote within 24 hours of me sending a message via Yelp. Four days later his team is there to repair, stain and refinish our master bedroom. His crew was awesome. Friendly, polite, worked their butts off! Job was expected to take two days and they got it done in one. I keep walking into the room to admire the floor. It's the original hardwood from when the house was built in 1960. So, so glad we reached out to the Flooring & Refinishing Guru instead of moving forward with my original plan (installing LVP over the hardwood). Money well spent, for sure. read more

Flooring & Refinishing Guru - Flooring Near Me

Oves and Flooring and Refinishing Guru delivered one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a contractor--unprofessional, dishonest, and completely negligent. The workmanship was trash, with uneven tile finishes and clear signs of corner-cutting. Oves ignored repeated calls and messages once problems arose, showing zero accountability. He made promises he didn't keep, misrepresented critical aspects of the tile renovation project, and left my home in worse condition than before he started. The situation was so egregious it resulted in a lawsuit--something no homeowner should have to pursue just to get basic standards met. I would never recommend this company to anyone. He didn't even come to the lawsuit which resulted in him losing. What kind of a business owner does that? See for yourself, here is the image of the lawsuit. read more

Oves is truly the flooring guru! I needed some damaged laminate flooring panels replaced ASAP after another business flaked out on me. Oves took my call in the evening, showed up the next day for an estimate, and had his guys come out and do the work the next morning. Oves has excellent communication, is friendly, and has a sense of humor to top it off. I tried to be proactive and purchased the materials ahead of the job, but I ended up buying a slightly different size than what was needed (ouch). Oves reassured me they would be able to work with the materials I got, and pulled off some guru magic lol. The floors look amazing now and back to tip top shape! I thought the estimate he gave me was a bit high at first, but considering the work they did, its fully understandable. Highly recommended! read more

Oves and his Floor Guru company refinished our classic European wood floor. Was looking terrible and not been done in 15 years. Now the floor is beautiful thanks to Floor Guru. Floor Guru was able to get the exact look we sought, in color, tone and shade. We got a fair price and great value from Floor Guru. Oves provides wonderful advice and is very knowledgeable in many home refurbishment and remodeling aspects. We will seek Oves help on more, including Kitchen Cabinets. Floor Guru, work men showed up when expected, were professional, friendly and very helpful. They did their work well over two days. They were careful and tidy. We waited a day, then put furniture back. The refinishing has held up well and looks great. I fully recommend working with Floor Guru and enjoy interacting with Oves. He knows his stuff and makes it easy. read more

He scheduled me monday today for 2pm then cancelled me on the spot! Wth! I cancelled all my clients this afternoon just to accommodate him and now he cancelled me! Very unprofessional! Dont use them!! He gave me a quote last week and we confirmed monday 2pm. He wanted a deposit zelle $100 i told him im gonna pay incash he said ok he needs $600 On Monday and the rest upon completion. i said yes thats fine. Then i texted him over the weekend that i just saw that his quote was labor only! Not including materials he didnt disclosed this wen we talked over the fone. So i told him I didn't realize the quote did not include materials. I asked about questions of other possible ways to fix my shower floor, he did not reply. This was over the weekend. He was NO response at all ZERO. And then today he told me that I texted him about my inquiry and assumed right away that I did not want the service even though I texted him I will see them on Monday AND WE HAD LOCKED THIS IN. I don't have an issue buying the materials but him not communicating about it He's very unprofessional. He ruined basically my whole day today in the afternoon. I canceled my afternoon job just for him. Poor communication purely business for him. read more

I found the company based on YELP reviews and couldn't be happier. I'd been wanting new floors since I moved in 10 years ago. The house was built in 1938 and had the original hardwood. While in good shape, it was not the look I wanted. I was torn between refinishing it or going with luxury vinyl. After speaking with Oves, I went with the vinyl, which also matched perfectly with my bathroom floor that I changed a couple of years ago. I called Oves on Sunday morning, he came out to give me a quote the same day and the job was done the next Thursday. Danny and Polo came out to do the work and they are incredibly efficient. They came in and went straight to work. I was able to leave some of the heavier pieces of furniture but made sure to do my part, getting as much as I could out of their way. They cleaned as they worked and cleaned when they were done. They even helped me move a few pieces of furniture back into place. They were so warm and friendly and seemed to have a good time working together. There was a minor hiccup with my front door not closing properly (its an old house with odd angles) but Danny came back the same evening to look at it. He ended up coming back a few days later to make sure the job was done right. He was so thoughtful and wanted to make sure I was happy. I was undecided about changing the flooring in my kitchen and Oves was candid in his thoughts. He could have easily told me to change it and make some more money off me but he didn't do that. Oves is easy to communicate with, very professional and has a sense of humor. I'd use this company again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them!! read more

The company had great reviews except for the single one I should have heeded that reminded me of the costly error I made in hiring this company to refinish cabinets. I went for it thinking it was a reasonable price, and after a incredibly awful job, they never intended to correct the unreal amount of errors I documented and asked to have remedied. During the weeks these issues were unresolved I accommodated Oves's major health crisis, and he had me postpone agreed work times. His last remark after all these images and complaints in writing seeking resolution for the thousands being paid? "But unfortunately some people never satisfied". The painter the owner hired is in way over his head with painting anything beyond the simplest jobs, as this complaint and images show in this document linked below: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQmvkT5MUibo8pIFdoHAypqxq4fZUIYbxdr_9zdPNwmW3wLcAwtkXV1yQxjire0-QHoI56ufkeBbdBU/pub The short list and images are below: - Cabinet box texture doesn't match doors (3 coats vs. 5 coats) - Numerous paint marks, finger prints, drips, etc. never cleaned up or sanded away - Damage by testing and leaving paint in the middle of a wall by dinner table - Damage by trying to retouch another unrelated wall without permission - Damage to a brand new trash cabinet drawer (cost $640 plus installation), installed by another company just a week earlier. The face of the drawer does not close flush on the face of the cabinet anymore. On top of this clear unprofessionalism, as I insisted these issues are remedied, he made a false claim I wanted to saturate my cabinet doors with the five coats his painter drowned the doors in. Why would I ask that? The paint's instructions say two coats. None of this makes any sense, but lesson learned. 6/5 EDIT - I posted 10 total photos with some captions with this review, why does only one now show? The rest can be seen in the link above. He is unfortunately posting more falsehoods in response, and he also totally edited his initial reply. So to be clear: NO I didn't have anyone else try to fix the damage (like the misaligned cabinet or them painting walls that have nothing to do with their job). NO they didn't "touch up" anything in the 10 photos I attached to this review or posted in the link , and YES drips, marks, damage, and soaked doors with sloppy textures/finishes are still as they were when he stopped replying about corrections and therefore ended his work. This is an open and shut case. read more

I called the Flooring & Refinishing Guru to repair a small area of wood floor that had bcome damaged due to a renter not noticing a refrigerator leak that had gone on for too long. Oves was very responsive and came out right away to look at the floor and provide an estimate.

Danny came out to do the repairs on the floor and he was able to use the pieces I had to complete the repair and have it blend seamlessly into the existing floor. Danny also obtained baseboards that matched the ones that I have perfectly. They were responsive, did a great job and the work was exceptional. I am very happy with the service provided! read more

It's all in the name - Guru! We extend our kitchen and needed to add flooring to our existing floor, we had bought the boards in hopes of doing it ourselves- but became a much bigger and daunting project! Many companies turned us down because they didn't want to work on something done by someone else. It was no problem for Oves and his team - it was seamless and he worked with us when it turned out we bought the wrong floor boards (color was good but not the click)! Appreciate how quick and customer focus they were! read more

Look no further for your go-to person for any of your home needs. I'm serious. Particularly for flooring, but Mr. Oves is an experienced professional that used to build houses, and everything in it so he knows anything and everything that has to do with building or restoring a home, as well as anything inside of it. I asked three different companies what they could do and they said it was going to be $8-10k to replace the entire floor and it was out of my budget. But Mr. Oves came up with a different solution and gave me a much more doable option of a transition replacement. He also took a look at my bathrooms and gave me his professional opinion on how best to restore it and what to leave alone because there's no foundational issue. I really appreciate anyone who has this much knowledge and expertise. read more

Immaculate work! I did my floor sand polish and coating. He did help me remove all furnitures, then sanding, polishing, staining twice coating and cleaning... then the floor looks like new.

Ovis was awesome to work with. I originally called him to have some engineered hardwood refinished. Ovis' team assessed the floor and told me it could not be saved.

They did an excellent job and completed the work quickly. Through the entire experience Ovis was responsive and professional. I definitely recommend this company for all your flooring needs. read more
