I was so in love with it, that I asked them to build a closet system for me that I drew out. They took my design and made it come to life with beautiful precision. From there, they custom made a vanity for my guest bathroom, a live edge dining room table, live edge shelves for my master bathroom, and a long floating shelf for our bar area. They are not local for me (I'm in CT, they're in MI) but that doesn't stop me from going back time and time again. Each time, they have been quick to respond, helpful with suggestions and kept me abreast of the progress with my pieces. I have loved working with LWB and every time I have an opportunity to bring them back into my home and recommend them to friends, I do. If you want beautifully made pieces created by service oriented folks, LWB are your people. They certainly are mine.

Rufino worked with us to design a whole house renovation and additions on a midcentury modern gem…read morethat essentially hadn't been updated since being built in 1952, besides a kitchen refresh in the 1980s. From the start, he was easy to communicate with and work with. He walked through our current house so we could talk through design/function that we liked or didn't like about our current living situation, asked us for our design inspiration with likes/dislikes, and then designed a home that is even better than we had imagined. Importantly, he thought about function, not just appearance, and how we would really use spaces based on how we live our life as a family. The 3D renderings were very helpful in visualizing the spaces, and they also gave us things to be excited about during the process. He always responded quickly and professionally, and he really took our ideas into account. Living in our house now is like a dream. We feel so lucky to live in such a beautiful (and functional) space. Rufino is a true artist. We don't plan on leaving this house anytime soon, but if we had the opportunity to design another home, we would 100% reach out to Rufino again.

The building was brand new, and I got a deal on…read moremy unit as it was still being constructed at the time, so some work (like painting the walls) was left unfinished. I'd always wanted to get around to painting the walls, but had prioritized other jobs I thought would liven up my condo. Jobs like installing ceiling fans, mirrored closet doors and outdoor patio furniture. So when I hired Lauren to decorate the walls in my 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo, I knew I wanted the job done, but what I wasn't expecting was how much better the overall feel and energy is in my condo since following through with Lauren's recommendations. She listened to my expectations, colors I liked and didn't, and everything I felt was necessary to communicate. I really didn't know what I was doing, but Lauren made me feel comfortable, and that my feedback would be useful to her suggestions. I get compliments to this day on the color selection I went with, and sometimes I take more credit for it than I should ;) but thank you Lauren and RL Concetti for exceeding my expectations and making my home just feel much better!

They also install and clean carpeting as well as tile and grout. My job as Trustee for my parents affairs including my childhood house was a stressful challenge with many choices and difficult decisions since March 19, 2019. After the house was empty by the 4th of July I decided to remove all the carpeting and padding which was 34 years old (stuck at times) throughout the house in 4 rooms, closets too and a hallway. The final and 4th color of carpet was sky blue. So 4 different colors of plush since 1958 when the house was built. It took 3 days for the carpet and padding removal. A back breaking and messy job removing it all plus the tack boards and transporting to the backyard for disposal in rolled up pieces. Finally I had an idea and hopefully a profitable one to clean, sand and restore these hardwood floors throughout the house that still looked in their original and beautiful state plus a sure selling point and value to help sell the house in a modern way as well. I used Yelp for my research based on previous reviews and found 4 businesses which I called for pricing, and time availability for my project. Dominic Frabotta the owner called me back within an hour after I left a message with my request. He personally made a appointment within a few days based on our schedules to see, access and measure the whole house for my estimate. We talked budget since I needed to save money for painting and other repairs that would be used for an old house to prep for sale. He worked out a price which was wonderful compared to the 2 other companies I had already called. The 4th company called me back and was too busy till November. Dominic explained the project would take 4 days. He also informed me that there would be a set of 2 different crews with 2 employees since they all have a different talents and skills at their jobs. It was a noisy 1st day of preparation which entitled sanding and stripping the old stain or varnish off throughout the house plus closets and also included any nails or boards that needed to be checked or addressed. I was outside working in the garage on items to sell or donate since the machine a voltage unit? showed 241on the meter in the kitchen, so I was not allowed even in the basement to work due to noise. The guys wore masks, gloves and headphones for protection and company safety policy. The 2nd day and 3rd day would be the stain which employee Brandon & Steve helped me decide on to perfectly match the kitchen cupboards a walnut brown color. Even though the stain was a different color and a change from the original hardwood floor color, Dominic assured me to try a medium brown color to change the appearance of the walk in the door feeling and he was 100% correct. The final results and my photos attached before during and after sold the house ! The 3rd day would be the sealer or clear coat applied by Wiiliam which was a fantastic day to see my choice in stain color to match the kitchen cupboards. The final job was completed by William with measuring the wall areas throughout the house for the cutting and staining at the shop for the shoe moldings. He installed all of them in rooms with a nail gun in 1 hour. Dominic and his awesome crew of guys went out of their way to keep the dust level down using a high tech vacuum equipment and clean up afterwards at the end of a work day. Their communication with me on details or ideas working the 3 days, was very helpful and successful in their final work results. The total price I paid for my parents home was very reasonable and within my budget to accomplish a job well done. My parents house sold in 24 hours after it was listed for sale with my agent on the web plus with many photos including the old yet new hardwood floors. The new owner was so pleased and thrilled to know and see such a wonderful job on the old hardwood floors instead of using carpeting. Thank you Dominic again and your professional crew of guys that have much talent and work hard at their skilled jobs. " An Awesome job from start to finish with no issues or complications! " I always use Yelp! I certainly recommend this Flooring company to anyone near or far. They service many areas and I will post their business card which lists many other professional care: Carpet cleaning, carpet sales, tile and grout, stripping and waxing, commercial tile and grout cleaning, Tile Floor sales and installation with Duraceramic, Pergo, & UCT Tile.
