My wife and I have had a great experience working with James at PurezaWood!…read more When you first visit James' showroom, you can appreciate his passion for his products. It's truly a high-end product, direct to the consumer. If you've looked in the typical places for hardwood options, you'll be blown away with the quality of what he offers. We opted for the 7.5" wide, French White Oak, in a beautiful grayish brown pre-finish stain. We're remodeling a loft condo in the West Loop and knew we needed something special to recover the entire loft's floors, to tie it all together. We had 6 different flooring surfaces throughout the home. For install, we decided to go with SLC, to eliminate some ridges and valleys, and a double-stick glue install, using 1/4" cork underlayment. We have to break up the install into 2 parts, first part looks great! Looking forward to seeing the completed project later this year!

The quality of this…read morehardwood is second to none.. you can't get this type of quality at this price in the city of Chicago. James is a customer-centric businessman, and I really appreciate his detailed explanation of the wood quality and his passion for the business. The best thing is his pricing includes customization even though we didn't need it because we loved his "Elmhurst" collection - 7.5" wide, French White Oak, in a beautiful grayish brown pre-finish stain, and we wanted to install the new floor immediately. I even recommended him to my family outside of Chicago. You can get the same look from the stores in Merchandise Mart and the high-end contractors will sell you those brands with a much higher rate. But working with James will help you achieve the high-end look as well as manage your budget well. Keep in mind this is not the average wood you will get for $5 per sqft. I feel I can trust James and his integrity which is the quality that we always value in any business that we want to work with. If you want to see his showroom, just make sure you call and make an appointment in advance. They are very responsive which I like as well. Thank you James and PurezaWood!

Here's what you need to know: Perfection did an outstanding job repairing and refinishing my guest…read morebathroom tub. Brian, in particular, was the reason why we are such satisfied clients. Outstanding service all around and reasonable pricing for the quality of work performed by Brian. Brian showed up exactly at the time he said he would and worked over a half day on our project. He repaired a crack in the tub by cutting a section of the fiberglass, then bracing it on the underside with wood for support (so that it doesn't re-crack after repair with an adult's weight), and finally refinished the whole tub to a sparkling glisten. The result is that we basically have a factory/showroom new tub in our guest bath. Brian was super professional and extremely courteous - a joy to deal with. I would definitely recommend Brian and Perfection Tubs and Tile, and would use them in the future myself. The overall cost of the job was under $500.

This company came to resurface a bathtub on a Saturday morning. When finished, the man doing the…read morework said it would be about another hour before it would be all good to go back inside. The guy who did the work was very nice when he was here but that is as far as the positive experience got. Upon entering the apartment an hour and a half later, the fumes from the epoxy and acrylic paints were so heavy, our eyes were burning, immediate headaches ensued and it was obvious there was no way anyone could live there for at least a day. The heavy fumes smell did not dissipate for over 3 days (nearly 4) rendering the apartment uninhabitable - during a pandemic. Do for nearly 4 days, I was unable to live in my home and had nowhere to go. I just called the Perfection Tubs & Tile and the man I spoke with, who confirmed he did the job, denied any problem could have happened and also confirmed he is licensed and insured. I asked for the information so I could file an insurance claim and he hung up on me before I could finish my question. I called back and again, asked for the information needed to file our claim and he said I'll have to go find an attorney or something and figure it out and hung up on me. The entire process was not ventilated sufficiently and created a thick heavy layer of vapor residue on every single surface around the home, including furniture which is fabric. In fact, we had to completely seal off the bathroom for 2 days to try and keep the vapors from getting any further into the apartment. This didn't help as much as we hoped and due to the heat no knowledge of these vapors that would turn to a solid form, the central air was running so they were circulating through the system and ducts. When cleaning we removed there a layer of gummy residue everywhere in every room and through the central air system and exhaust vent. This should never be done if there is someone currently living in the home, or if everything in the home isn't covered completely to avoid getting this buildup from the fumes. 2 printers, a brand new sofa, carpet, computers, clothes, and a bed were all affected by this. Everything else had to be thoroughly washed and scrubbed down to remove the residue. It was never disclosed that this might happen and I believe if it was ventilated more appropriately and for a longer time, it would not have been such a problem. Being licensed and bonded does not mean anything to this company because they had no interest in cooperating when I mentioned I had to file a claim. The only option is to sue the company for damage caused by the vapors. I do not recommend this company as they have little interest in helping or making customers happy. hanging up on a customer who is calling to inform them of a problem that occurred is the LAST thing you should do when you receive a call of this nature. It is unfortunate he chose to handle the call this way because it will be much worse now that he won't TRY and work with me. I believe this is not the first time something like this has happened based on how I was treated and dismissed. To give you an idea of a visible portion of the vapor residue buildup, I am attaching a picture of the exhaust fan. I was able to clean most of it off, but imagine that dispersed on every surface of your home's furniture, walls, counters, bed, and clothing. Not to mention, the same type of buildup in the central air ducts, and main furnace structure.

Great tile work on the bathroom floor and in the tub surround…read more HOWEVER... The installer scratched the tub AND incorrectly reinstalled the toilet. When I called Floro about my scratched tub, he hung up on me. A few months after the tile installation, we knew something was wrong when we saw water leaks on the ceiling of the room below the recently tiled bathroom. The plumber we hired said the height of the tile prevented the toilet from being installed correctly: the stack needed to be extended. Essentially, the water was leaking into the subfloor. When I called Floro about the toilet being installed incorrectly and that I had to hire a plumber to fix the problem, he said "what can I say" and hung up again on me. I suggest you think twice before working with this group.

The person I worked with was friendly & talkative but when I went through the showroom and made selections of items I was interested in (for a full house remodel) he was not able to provide on the spot pricing or great options of stocked goods, or well priced alternatives. I pulled things to get priced (per his recommendation) but once I went through that exercise he was not really willing to get my information and work on a quote. The "rough" prices he threw out at the end of my visit were not that great. I left feeling like I wasted my time. I did not see other clients getting good assistance of follow up either.

Mr. Sherman got in contact with me immediately and showed up within a day to give me a feee estimate. He did the work beautifully, clearly explained the time needed and time needed for the floor to cure or set between each coat. After sanding, a dye stain of deep red was still visible in some cracks between boards in the eating area of the kitchen. He had warned me the stain might not be completely removed in the sanding. As we looked at it and I decided I wanted the two by three feet expanse removed and replaced, I felt no pressure either way from Mr. Sherman. I asked if he could do it and if he could get it done in the time frame. He said yes. AND THAT IS JUST WHAT HE DID! His original bid was the best and the added expense of the patch with new hardwood was minimal. He is courteous and went out of his way to meet the needs of this job from start to finish.
