Recovery Flooring

I had the 3.25" Vintage Solid Sawn Tigerwood installed in the living/dining room and 2 bedrooms of my condo. There are people who research things to death, and then there's me, who always takes it one step further just to make sure everything is absolutely perfect.

I chose Patrick after conducting lengthy interviews with a total of 8 hardwood floor installers, who were already narrowed down from an even longer list of contractors. Patrick stood out from the rest, not only in his tremendously fair pricing, but his artistic eye and problem solving skills. It was clear that he had quality experience. He made excellent suggestions and never made a big decision in the installation process without consulting me first.

He was trustworthy, thoughtful, ethical, and never compromised when it came to getting the right materials. For example, I was originally thinking of doing the installation using the glue-down method, which is significantly more expensive than the floating method. Patrick talked me out of it in the hopes of saving me some money. He weighed the pros and cons of each method and in the end, I decided that floating was sufficient for my needs, since I also purchased a very solidly built cork underlay.

Patrick brought several different shoe mouldings for me to choose, given the style of my condo, and all I can say is I wouldn’t have been able to pick the perfect one without his help. He also found the perfect t-moulding to bridge the height gap between the master bedroom and tiled bathroom. After everything set, it looked like there was practically no transition at all! He also went to several different warehouses to make sure he got the hardwood flooring at the lowest price possible, and then passed on those savings to me. He even showed me his debit card receipt, and I only paid how much he paid the manufacturer.

The amount of square footage of materials I had to purchase was already less than what other installers had quoted. On top of that, I ended up with 3 EXTRA BOXES of hardwood flooring! Vintage refused to take them back, but Patrick didn’t want me to be stuck with them such that he graciously offered to buy them off of me, and refunded me the amount of the 3 boxes!

Patrick is an outstanding human being. I can honestly say that he is the most professional contractor I have ever dealt with. His helpers were great too. They were hard-working and always arrived 100% prepared. The job took exactly how long he said it would and he made sure that all of the garbage was cleaned up before he left. His craftsmanship is superb and his prices are even better. If I could give him a score higher than 10/10, I would. Call Patrick now! You will not regret it!
