The wood looks great and exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend Red Fine Hardwood Floors to anyone looking for quality hardwood floor refinishing done the right way. read more

Many things come to mind when you think of beautiful hardwood floors: the form, the sheen, the luster, and even a bit of history. But what does not come to mind in the daunting task and small miracle that it takes to keep them so beautiful. Having recently moved into a 1925 Old Spanish, my wife and I felt it was time to strip that old and poorly applied shiny lacquer and bring new life to those floors. Here is where we had no idea what we were getting into. I had done many online searches and read about all floor refinishing, it seemed very straight forward. This was obviously not something I was going to attempt but I just wanted to be informed, I was off to get a quote! When Ramon and I met up, he was prompt, professional, and knew exactly what he was talking about. I asked many questions and found out that he, and his company, uses an extensive multi-step sanding process that really makes the difference, other than the products used of course. He came, he saw, he measured, he explained, he answered, and then he left. Armando sent me the quote the next day and even called me to follow up and if I had any questions, which I did, obviously. At the price point, I was taken aback but I already knew it was going to be expensive. In the end, it is a VERY specialized process. My wife and I continued working on more pressing renovations and decided we would give it some more time. We waited and waited. Ramon called me to let me know they were getting booked up very quickly, but I told him we were still on the fence. One day, I see a request for wood floor refinishing on NextDoor and two people quickly recommend RED. I got nervous. When we finally had a concrete move-in date, I spoke to Ramon and he penciled us in. I told him that we will be going with the satin oil-based poly instead of the water-based simply because of the price. He said, "no problem, I totally understand". Before they started, Armando and Ramon came by to drop off some replacement boards they needed to acclimate to our home's environment, yes, they even think of that as the pros that they are. Obviously, my wife and I asked even more questions. We made it very clear that we were against the yellow undertone from the previously applied lacquer. They quickly recommended the water-based polyurethane to get the wood color and matte look we were looking for. We said we would think about it. The day came and the crew quickly got to work. Ramon kept me in the loop for everything. He asked me to come by so I could see the progress myself. After a single day, the floors looked completely different, so smooth, so rich in natural wood color, that was not even half of the process. Ramon explained that the wood had been resurfaced many times before and had very little life left. He showed me many examples and explained why we could see the nails in some area, he even explained what that does with the finish, very glad he mentioned it. He assured me that we will get a lot of use out of them but next time, it will have to be a very light sand and recoat. They sanded, ripped out bad boards, laid new ones, sanded some more, and then, you guessed it, sanded even more. The process was extensive. The dust. The dust was everywhere. But not like you would expect. Ramon and the crew worked with the upmost thoughtfulness and picked up a ton. He did warn me there would be dust, but their machines picked up most of it. This is an inevitable consequence of the process, but it really is not that bad, it was easy to clean up. NOTHING like tile and drywall work. I called Ramon and said we wanted the water-based coat and he told me we would not regret it. He was right. During the coating process, Ramon and the team are VERY strict with people being in the house, the A/C off, and only necessary movement to prevent anything from sticking to the coating. When it was all done, the floor looked completely transformed. My wife and I could not believe it, it was beautiful and natural looking. What wood floors are supposed to look like. The photos do NOT do it justice. Ramon also supplied us with Bona commercial cleaner, applicator, and felt furniture pads, yes, that is a very fine touch. We followed all the recommendations: kept shoes off the floor for about 2 weeks, only dry cleaning with the applicator, no rugs for 30 days, and felt pads on EVERYTHING. Ramon seriously warns that the first 30 days are crucial in keeping the finish undisturbed as much as possible. In the end, it is probably the best dollar spent because it is something you see and use every single day. Not to mention that everyone loves the floors. We even had them take the Florida Pine handrail and refinish it so it could all be harmonious. IN SUMMARY: RED is phenomenal, they are professionals, take their work very seriously, know what they are talking about, guide you in what is best for you and your budget, and are worth every penny. They definitely under promise and over-deliver. read more

Armando did a great job! My floors look good and I was very happy with the service! The cousins came back after the job was finished and helped me move a few pieces so I could use my kitchen. The only inconvenience; they advised on their first day working I should "leave it to cure" for 3 weeks. That means limited movement of anything on the floors! But you payed to have it done you want it to look good! read more

Let me begin by stating that I am eternally grateful for the craftsmanship performed on our old oak floors. By the time this family run business is completed with your old, scratched and uneven wooden floors they will be so unrecognizable that you'd think they were replaced! We live in a circa 1926 home with original oak floors that had been haphazardly treated in the past. While many may prefer blondes, the color is an outright atrocity on floors. I have a fascination with ebony floors and wanted to capture the regal elegance of dark floors without further shrinking our already small 20's styled rooms. Not only did the team at Redwood Floors help me hand select the perfect color, but went the extra mile to educate me on the arduous step-by-step process of wood resurfacing. Their professionalism and workmanship is unparalleled to any contractor we have worked with in Miami thus far. If you're looking to replace your wood floors, don't waste your time and money, consider resurfacing them with true experts at RED Fine Hardwood Floors. Inevitably, we went an espresso color in a natural finish and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! Thank you Ramon, Armando and Carlos! read more

Not sure how to rate this but after waiting for over two weeks to get a quote for a simple job, I just gave up. Nice guy who came by to check the work to be done, refinishing of a hardwood floor. Seems like a very reasonable person but typical Miami to have a client wait for so long for a quote. And I did contact him to let him know I was waiting for the quote. The quote was on the way, actually it should be in my email already, was the response. All a waste of everybody's time, too bad. read more

Several months ago I had been recommended Ramon Diaz and his brother Armando Diaz of RED FINE HARDWOOD FLOORS 305-302-2654 This was my husband's family home where he grew up, and we really needed to feel that we could trust someone with this massive task. From the very moment I spoke with Ramon, to the day he and I met, and then throughout the process, he and his brothers (it is a family affair which included their dad and cousins), he and they have been thorough, very detailed, careful, respectful, knowledgeable, understanding of our timeline, always took our calls or returned them timely, and flat out exceptional professionals to work with. Ramon explained the process in great detail when we first met, told us that the floors had to breath basically since they had been covered with vinyl for some 45 to 50 years, how ideally we need to let them cure once the process is done, explained in detail about the machinery and products which were going to be used, what was going to be supplied to us once the work was done (and how to use those maintenance products), and basically shared with us how everything was going to be handled from the first step, to the last step. When I had some additional questions they offered to show us a home they had just finished in Shenandoah. Their home was spectacular and they could not say enough about Ramon and the family. There was never, ever, a "surprise" or "misunderstanding". Every single step, every process, every matter, every cost, all of it, was professionally handled, explained and addressed. They took their time at every stage. What a labor of love. Never complained, always left the work site at the end of the day clean, never left their items in disarray, never had an attitude and never ever did they arrive late. ALWAYS right on time and ALWAYS with a fabulous smile, attitude and eagerness to work on our floors and restore them to a thing of beauty, which they did. He and all his brothers are top notch professionals! Come to find out, we have Select Red Oak in the main home and Dade County Pine in the kitchen. How absolutely fabulous is that! Ramon actually took the time to show us how they would remove the termite damaged pieces and replace them with the new wood. The entire process. If you need anyone to work on your wood floors, I totally, wholeheartedly, without hesitation, highly recommend RED FINE HARDWOOD FLOORS. Call Ramon Diaz at  305-302-2654. You will be glad that you did. Julia Pulles read more

Red Fine refinished the oak floors in our home and we are thrilled with the results and the experience working with Ramon and Armando. We had a lot of questions about the process and a strict timeline because we needed to move into the house by a certain date. The original floors had a lot of damage and were not in good shape. For example, in one place, the previous owners had cut a chunk out and replaced it with non-matching boards, there were deep cracks in several boards, and even stickers (???) stuck on to the floor in one of the bedrooms. Many boards needed to be pulled out and replaced. When installing new wood to replace broken boards, the wood needs 5-7 days to acclimate. We were worried we wouldn't be able to move in on time, but everything went well, in no small part because Ramon kept us updated almost daily (even before work started, during the planning phase). They even helped us find someone to fix a patch of rotten subfloor, which was done quickly and very well, and did not impact the timeline. The floors have a new life and we are so glad we found this company. read more

These guys are the best -- we have a 1924 Old Spanish home in the Gables and our floors were in really bad shape -- these guys worked their magic and brought our original old dade county pine floors to their original beauty. Their attention to details, their quality workmanship and being available from start to finish is second to none. I highly recommend this family owned company which is amazing! read more

Red Fine Hardwood Floors - Refinished Old Dade County Pine floors - Flooring Near Me

Armando and his team were fabulous! They were informative, friendly, competent, skillful, professional, and experts in their field! Armando delivered my flooring materials a few days early to let it settle into the environment of my bedroom, and the day of the installation they were right on time. They had to move a few pieces of furniture and disconnect the TV, but everything was replaced in good order. After removing the rug a floor of old dirty tiles was found underneath, and Armando advised he would have to raise the price a bit to remove them also, but I was happy to pay the minimal addition to the final bill to have the job done right. Removing the old tiles also added hours for his crew to finish the work, but everyone remained in good spirits throughout . It's a family operation. I hadn't met more brothers, cousins, uncles, or fathers together in a long time! I will definitely call them again when I redo my house. read more

I called up the guys at Red and was lucky to get on their schedule. These guys are booked and busy for a reason: they do impeccable work, take pride in it, and are organized and timely, and when I say these guys, I don't just mean the owners, Ramón and Armando, who both came and worked on my floors during the six days of the project, but everyone at Red including Carlos and Peach and everyone. These guys are artisans. I've renovated houses before, and Red are probably the best subcontractors I've ever hired. Spring for the water-based and be prepared to be wowed when they're done. Simply outstanding quality. read more

As the founder and owner of a construction company in another country (www.coperco.com) for over 23 yrs, I can say without fail that RED is the best Hardwood Floor refinishing company I've ever hired, by far. The passion Ray and Armando Díaz put into their work was evident every step of the way. From educating me as a customer as to the challenges and possibilities, the alternatives, the time required, they always communicated well. They were always punctual and friendly. The extra time they put in for several days due to the unforeseen challenges, that they tackled without rushing the job and by putting in the required additional days shows their attention to detail... They poured their heart into it. The estimate was also on point. My family is thoroughly pleased with the floor and everyone who visits is immediately impressed by it. I hope this review helps the reader choose the right company for their floor. If you want an excellent hardwood floor, RED Fine Hardwood Floors will not disappoint. read more

RED Fine Hardwood timely delivered a finish that pays homage to, and shows off, each individual hardwood board. We chose RED because we wanted a quality finish by a craftsperson invested in the results. From the beginning, Ramon walked through RED's process, and was transparent about the possibilities. The same expert who gave us the estimate, Ramon, was the one managing that process and on site finishing our floors. When considering options, we liked that RED indicated everything would be done in-house, which detail was on display: The crew proudly wore their RED shirts and each person on the job was knowledgeable, polite, careful, and happy to answer any questions. We had a tight time-frame, and RED delivered on time. They were there to help throughout and attentive to the details -- taking time to make sure doors would not scratch the finish and helping to protect our investment. We intend to reach out to RED on our next project. read more

We have recently hired Red Fine to restore some old wood floors we have in our home that the previous owner had painted over. Armando and his team came and were always on time and worked in a very professional manner. The work they put into the preparation of the floors even before reaching the point of staining was meticulous and truly amazing! These guys are not just your average wood floor guys, they are real craftsman! What they have done to our floors has totally surpassed our expectations! The floors look brand new and they were able to match the color we wanted perfectly. The whole process has been very smooth and a very pleasant experience as they are really nice guys and they obviously take great pride in their work. Our home was also kept quite clean through the process as the dust was minimal. The whole job took a little longer than expected but it was well worth the wait! They have completely restored our wood floors and made them look brand new again! I cannot give a more positive review of Red Fine and would not hesitate to use them again in the future. You will not be disappointed if you hire this company to do anything in your home that has to do with wood floors! They are truly experts in their craft! read more

They did a beautiful job refinishing my floor. On time and no mess and my living room floor is updated and beautiful.

After a flood in my house in Pinecrest which ruined the hardwood floors, they had to be replaced in the living/dining room and in four bedrooms. I contacted Armando who came that very day to measure and give me an estimate. When we signed the contract he assured me that the work would be completed at the end of February and kept his promise. He, Ramon and Carlos are the most professional, courteous and efficient craftsmen I have ever encountered. Through the years I have had floors redone, repaired, or buffed in 4 houses both here in Miami and in New York. I have never met anyone quite as satisfying to work with than the fine craftsmen of Red Fine Hardwood. Armando kept me abreast of what was going on in the house, returned my calls promptly, and in general could not have been more professional nor courteous. They are simply the best and contracting them to do your floors is probably the wisest investment you will ever make in your house! The job was started and completed on the dates that were promised. They put all the furniture back in it's place and added padding to anything that would be touching those floors. The garage, where they kept the wood that they were using, was impeccable when they left it as was the entire house. I cannot possibly recommend them nor thank them enough! read more
