This is the second time using this company. "Ask for Lam", was what my wife and I read the first time in their review. We were moving into a 1904 house in Martinez that had original red oak floors that hadn't been refinished in the 30 years the previous owners lived there. A last minute decision to finish the floors and we couldn't have been happier. They were even able to remove an old 3X3 foot heater floor vent and match the floor well enough that you didn't notice unless you were looking for it. Flash forward 4 years and we asked them to come back and refinish the only room in the house where there was a rug. After my wife and I removed the rug and the 1950s felt backed linoleum and mastic, Nviro came and restored the floor and it looks as good as new! Great response, great workers, punctual, efficient, and quality work! Very clean job, and at a reasonable price! read more

We went with Lam because he was highly recommended and I'm glad we did. Great customer service, Great Quality Work, Price is Fair and he came out after a couple times from spot checks. Would easily recommend and hire again! read more

Lam and his guys refinished our floors a few years back and did a terrific job matching the color of older and new area. He was also most reasonable price of all the bids. When it came time to remodel our kitchen this summer and add new flooring, I contacted them again and Lam not only offered the best bid again but worked with me to allow me to demo the old floor to lower the price even more. He was also very accommodating on schedule to complete the project between other construction (even returning to do final coat of poly at end) to get it all done quickly and efficiently. End result was beautiful new floors at a manageable price. Thanks Lam, once again! Great service, great work! read more

Lam followed up with me and his team came back out to add another coat of sealant and fill the gaps in the wood filler and re-buff everything. The floors feel much smoother now as a result, so I appreciate that they came out to fix the shortcomings left from the first time around. Some of the floorboards still don't quite match the rest, and there is still a bit of debris that was sealed onto the floor, but in general I am more satisfied with the result. read more

Thank you, Lam! read more

This review is regarding my communication with Lam. He was quick to respond to my request for a quote on refinishing my hardwood floor. His quote was very competitive, but we went with another vendor due to timeframe. I will definitely use him in my next project with more lead time. read more

In a nutshell, Lam was very responsive and helpful. He was always on time and easy to communicate with (answering questions and updating me throughout the project. We have a rental home built in 1936 with original hardwood floors; however, the tenants abused the floors in several areas, and some of the wood needed to be replaced. They refinished and stained the floors exactly as we wanted and met my expectations all the way through. The was also the lowest bidder, and I've used other companies that did not do as good a job. My mother-in-law also used him to put in new floors in one of her homes and one of her apartments, and he did a great job there as well. read more

When I purchased an old house that had not been updated in quite some time one of the key areas that needed a lot of help were the hardwood floors. The Nviro team, led by Lam, did an incredible job from start to finish. Fist they educated me on exactly what type of wood flooring existed in the house. Then discussed the options on what would work best and how we could approach redoing the floors. Ultimately, once the floors were sanded, treated, some wood replaced and the vents all redone with flush to the floor vents, we picked out a great stain that worked extremely well. Lam and Nviro were highly professional, did the job exactly when they said they were going to do it and on budget. It was an incredible experience and I highly recommend working with them. read more

Lam and his team are wonderful. He is incredibly helpful, friendly, positive and knowledgeable. I had him refinish my existing 1920s hardwood floors and they look STUNNING. The best part is his prices are super competitive. I'm adding an addition to my house and he will 100% be the guy to continue the work. He is so easy to work with, and doesn't have that contractor attitude about not answering questions unless they know they'll have your job. Really can't say enough great things about him. He's even willing to travel to Santa Cruz for a job! Thank you, Lam! read more

Lam and Luis head the team that refinished our floors and they are absolutely beautiful. They did fantastic work and were patient with us as we needed guidance to figure out the correct stain color for the wood. They also replaced some hardwood that was damaged by dog urine. The areas replaced are seamless, can't tell they were changed out at all. The team was committed to make sure we were happy with the floors and we love them. We would recommend them for floor refinishing anytime. read more

Wow! What I say; this team was professional, respectful, and did an awesome job on my wood floors. The job has been completed as promised in one day. They restored my beautiful hardwood Oak floors just one day that was amazing to me. The men that came out and refinish the floor were respectful, they move the furniture for me, they sealed the room so that the dust would not float throughout the house. This is the company if you want to wood floors finished to hire. Donna read more

I first found Lam/Nviro on here and based on the stellar reviews and his bid I decided to use Nviro. On-time, dependable, friendly and clearly a pro (both him and his crew!). The floors? I had a small project, 160 sq-ft to be done. The craftsmanship and appearance are both top, top notch. I'd highly recommend Lam to you, dear Yelper, in need of magic for your floors! read more

Lam and his team are great! We were impressed with how quickly Lam's team was able to start and complete the job. I highly recommend them! He is a great professional to work with, and connected us with a great contractor in the process. (5 stars for Alfredo, too!) read more

Lam and his crew did a great job on the buffing and re-coating of our hardwood floors. Originally we talked with him about doing a complete refinish and he was a straight shooter and said he could do it and charge us for it but the floors weren't in that bad of condition and we'd be better served just doing a buff and re-coating. I would definitely recommend Nviro for your flooring care needs. Not only were they professional and timely their pricing was also top notch. We will be using them again in the future. read more

Excellent JOB !!!! Lam and his team did a great job (-750'). The team had to first demo tile that had been there for at least 15 years, then prepare and lay down hardwood. The team is prompt, efficient and courteous. There were times I had to leave for hours on end and didn't once worry about my house being unsupervised. By the way Lam made a recommendation on the baseboards and it totally gave the floors an additional pop. I definitely would use Nviro again and again. read more

This review is almost 2 1/2 years over due. The original work was completed February 2016. I know you don't have time to read the review, so I'll cut to the chase. Hire Nviro! They were professional, communicated what to expect, did a fantastic job repairing my damaged floor, and the price was very competitive. His crew did the job quickly. I'd hire Nviro again. My hardwood floor, in my 1952 house, had severe cupping (each wood strip curling upwards along the edges), due to water that had leaked under the subfloor. Lam explained that he could repair the job, alternate the new wood with the old, in varying lengths, to match it as close as he could. He further explained that there would be a light color difference due to the lighter patina on the old floor, from years of sun bleaching the wood. I was okay with it, as I had planned to have the floors resurfaced at a later time. Lam and his crew did a fantastic job removing the old strips. I noticed that the subfloor looked a bit warped, so I asked him to replace it as well because I didn't want it to squeak in the future. It's a cheap fix, especially since the floor was open. Even though it was a last minute request, Lam said no problem, and went to the lumber store to buy supplies. His crew cut out the old subfloor and carefully layered up the subfloor, so it matched with the existing subfloor The final results were fantastic. I couldn't be happier. Do yourself a favor and hire Nviro. read more

I would recommend Lam and Nviro Floors in a heartbeat and will definitely be in contact with him for future project! Thanks again Lam! read more

We recently bought a beautiful 1904 Folk Victorian in Martinez, CA. I was trying to find someone at the last minute and had no idea where to go. I started with Angie and made an appointment with Lam. I wanted to get a second quote, so I contacted another contractor also recommended by Angie. They could come a day earlier so when they came and told me that they could meet a tight 1 week schedule to have it ready for our move in date, I was excited and started to feel the pressure of making a decision. I was almost ready to spend a huge amount of money and didn't really know what it really would cost. I should have known better, because he was an hour and a half late and pulled up in a very expensive looking Mercedes. Someone had to pay for his car. I called Nam and told him I needed a quote on the spot based upon an empty house, the square footage needing refinishing and the the age of the wood. He gave me a quote on the spot 1/3 the price of that Mr. Mercedes offered. After showing Mr. Mercedes to the door, I waited until the next day and met with Lam. He was cheerful, pleasant, and super fast and paid attention to the spots in the floor that needed repair and said he would also quote replacing a section of the floor where there had been a 3X3" floor radiator in the past. 1/3 the price with the floor repairs and the radiator space rebuild. I had read his reviews on Yelp, and like mine, they were all glowing, so the decision was easy. Final result, a magnificent floor restored to perfection and a very happy wife. On time and on price with great communication and great craftsmanship from his team. read more

The great news is our floor is done and looks beautiful. The not so great news is the job was not completed on time because the crew ran out of wood on a Saturday afternoon, and didn't inform us until then. We rushed to Lumber Liquidators to buy more at a higher rate than we purchased it at before (Lam comped us $100 but still, it didn't feel great as we had even double checked with him that the square footage was correct, and he replied by email that it was.) Knowing what we know now that it takes about seven boxes to finish each of our bedrooms, I would have thought that the crew working on the floor would have seen the four remaining boxes and the one whole bedroom and edges of our kitchen left to complete, and taken the initiative to tell us of the impending shortage a heck of a lot earlier. They also put my toddler son's bed on the unfinished part of his room, the floor of which looked like the La Brea Tar Pits. WTF? Why not put the underlayment down, which we had plenty of and needed to be done anyway? This lack of care for our home and time really left a bad taste in our mouths. This isn't a two-star review because Lam sent two guys to finish the job on Sunday, a day that they're normally off. We appreciated that, as well as the fact that Lam found the wooden radiator registers we had been looking for online but were unable to locate. Overall, I can't in good faith recommend Nviro if you're living in your home and needing a new floor, given what we experienced. No matter your situation, I'd press for a schedule so you know what's happening daily and what you can expect. read more

Lam and his crew did an amazing job on our floors. We were afraid of what we would find, but they assured as no matter what, the floor doctors got it! After they pulled up the lament to show the hardwood underneath, we got very anxious at the damaged that was revealed, but we took a deep breath and let Lam and his crew do their work. We came back after a week, and we couldn't believe how wonderful they looked! Trust us when we say Lam the floor DR got ya covered! read more

Lam was friendly, responsive, and -- most important -- he was able to schedule his crew to start on my floors within a few days of closing on my new home, which was critical for our moving timeline. The floors turned out great! read more

We got the hardwood floor re-finished in our new home before move-in. Lam was very professional and prompt with his communication. When he came by to provide a quote, he was honest and didn't over-sell us with additional services. The quote was reasonably priced. On the day of the work, they were on-time and the matte finish they put on was very well done. They had covered all the corners, inside the closets and even the floor vent covers. We would definitely hire Nviro for any of our hardwood flooring needs in the future. read more
