    Esyfloor removed our old carpet, tile and vinyl that was installed in 1993 and replaced it throughout our house with new updated Cali Bamboo vinyl planks. Our place looks totally refreshed and we are very happy with results. I was referred to Paulo by Cali Bamboo and Paulo immediately responded and provided measurements and a fair quote. He alerted us to Cali's sale price on the product which saved us 25%. He scheduled the crew led by Enrique. The crew was prompt and friendly and cleaned up after themselves after each day on the job. When it was determined that our old baseboards would not work Paulo immediately ordered new baseboards for us and delivered timely and without increased cost. I can't say enough about this company that is professional and efficient and delivers at a fair price and meets deadlines

    My wife and I recently moved and decided to replace the carpet and linoleum in our new house. We literally went to 8 different locations and looked at dozens and dozens of types of hardwood and laminate floors. I did not realize how difficult it was to make a decision on what type to get until we started the process. Ironically while at one of the big box stores we ran into a past co-worker of mine and he recommended we stop by Esy Floors in Dublin. We stopped in and were immediately greeted by Paulo. He was exceptionally helpful and friendly during the process. During our review of the many products they had both my wife and I found and fell in love with the hardwood floor we wanted. Not only did we find the floor we wanted but Esy Floors was significantly less expensive then the other 8 locations we visited. We knew it was meant to be and we booked them to install a few weeks out. His crew came several days before to store the hardwood inside to let it acclimate to the inside temp. On day one of install they were on time and they installed close to 2,000 sq. Ft of floor (including closets) in about 3.5 days. The moment I realized we made the right choice was when a few weeks later we noticed a slight uneven board in the hallway. We called Paulo at Esy Floors because we were concerned over time the board would wear or crack. He immediately sent over his lead installer who removed our baseboard, cut out the uneven board, and replaced it with a new one. His crew was very professional and cleaned throughout the entire process. If you are looking to have any type of flooring installed I know how it goes and you will visit every place imaginable, but please make a stop at Esy Floors during your quest and I promise the price, quality of installation and service will top your list!

    Last week esyfloors installed hardwood floor in my living room. They did an awesome work. Paulo is an awesome guy and super cool, very easy to work with him. Installation crew is superb. They cleaned up everything after installation is done. I highly recommend esyfloors.

    See all

Carlos was easy to work with and guided us every step of the way. Communication was clear throughout the entire process, and there were no surprises. The best part of the experience was the install and the install team. Manny and his crew absolutely crushed it. We had an issue with an unlevel floor, and they took the time to add self-leveling compound to fix the problem the right way. We also have a ridiculous amount of stairs -- 34 total -- that were previously covered in carpet, and they now look amazing. Manny and his team were excellent from start to finish. Highly recommend.

When I needed a more expensive kind the next week, I worked with a different employee who got me a better price than the ones I originally bought. I appreciated the "deal" but did not like how the discount was applied in one instance and not the other. This was during the anniversary sale, so most things were on sale. Lead time for my tile was quoted as 5-7 days. It took 2 weeks. The worst part was that the tile that I waited 2 weeks for was the wrong kind as the floor store/manufacturer messed up the order. The floor store got the manufacturer to rush the correct tile in a couple days...really wished they had the same hustle when I first put in my order. I ended up having to pay more for my contractor's time because the floor store took too long. If you are already working with an installer, I'd check with them to see if they can source materials. The price will certainly be much more competitive. I don't think I'd go through the trouble with the floor store again.

It was the first place…read moreI visited when I started shopping for flooring, and after speaking with Chad, I knew I would ultimately choose VM Flooring. I still visited other stores to do my due diligence, but no one came close in terms of pricing, customer service, flooring selection, or overall flexibility. Jack's team began work the day after providing a very transparent and reasonable estimate. Igar was also fantastic to work with. The demolition was completed in just one day, and the team went above and beyond to accommodate requests that were outside the original scope of work. I am extremely happy with the flooring I selected, and the craftsmanship truly shows in the details. The baseboard installation and painting, as well as the stair installation, were done exceptionally well. These finishing touches are what truly elevate the entire flooring project.

I thought I could DIY the whole job, but as I was finishing the demo of the old flooring I quickly realized that it was WAY beyond my abilities! I got an incredibly fast response from Jack, who was able to visit and give a detailed quote. He explained what work would be required, and how to handle the prep work to get the job done right. Anatoly did a thorough job leveling the floor, installing the new flooring and re-installing the trim board. I was impressed by the team's attention to detail while still finishing the job quickly. I'm so glad that I worked with VM Flooring - now I just wish I had worked with them from the start instead of trying to DIY at all!

    We recently had laminate flooring installed throughout our entire home. Unfortunately, our…read moreexperience has been disappointing, primarily due to persistent noise issues. Walking across many areas of the floor produces noticeable sounds, which detract from the comfort of our living space. When we brought this concern to the installer's attention, they dismissed it as "normal." This response left us feeling as though our concerns were not taken seriously, and we are now left with a problem that affects our everyday life. What We Liked * The sales representative at the Danville showroom was very helpful when it came to choosing flooring samples. Their assistance made the selection process easier. * Although the cost was higher than other estimates we received, we chose this company because their measurement process was thorough and detailed. Major Drawbacks * There is consistent noise whenever we walk across the floor in many areas of the house, and the issue has not improved over time. * While the installation was completed, we felt that our concerns were not addressed adequately afterward. * The installer insisted that the noise was "normal" rather than providing a clear solution or inspection plan * When we brought up the noise issue, the installer attempted to fix it by adding more nails to the stairs and applying a solution provided by the manufacturer, but these efforts did not resolve the problem. Later, Brian, the owner of the company, visited our home. He did not introduce himself at the time, and after walking the stairs, he claimed the noise was caused by his ankle. After inspecting the house, he concluded that the noise was "normal" for floating floors and said there was nothing further he could do. * Even though they removed the samples from the showroom and stopped selling the brand installed in our home due to other customer complaints, they still refused to address our ongoing problem. Because the walking noise is so noticeable and our concerns were dismissed as "normal," we cannot recommend this installer.

Value was there, and everyone we dealt with seemed authentic, relaxed, with no "sales pitch" and no "artificial" tone. Their installers came out and did a wonderful, professional job. We couldn't be happier with the end result. I deal with a lot of home improvement vendors throughout the Bay Area because of my line of work. I'm keeping Diablo Flooring at the top of my flooring list.

Jonathan was an incredible person and super nice - really personable and his wife was also the most responsive person ever - always quick to answer questions and provide the quote/invoice right away as promised. I hired them to finish up flooring since I had some injuries and couldn't finish up the work and their quality and speed was phenomenal. I have an eye for attention to detail and their crew was above and beyond in how they did the flooring, going the extra mile for things that normally would be a quick shortcut for contractors hoping the customer would miss it but they didn't take any shortcuts. They were reasonably priced - not the highest or the lowest quote but Jonathan was what sold us on the work and we're more than happy to have gone with him and have recommended him to other neighbors. There's a reason why they are so backed up with work! They're popular for a good reason. They're finishing up the work today and the guys are respectful, clean up after themselves and super nice to chat with. Definitely would recommend Jonathan and his crew to anyone looking to have the best flooring done the right way. Just like their slogan says!

It was installed when we built the house and had not been refinished in 35 years. It was badly marked up from hospice care wheelchair and hospital bed marks.

Upon returning we were absolutely delighted to see flooring throughout the whole first floor that looked as good or better than the original installation 35 years ago. Jonathan and his wife Eva (who handles the business side) were a pleasure to work with and very trustworthy. The work got done just when they said, and their price was a fair one.
