New York Floorman

I had an approximate quote over the phone before a long weekend.
Their estimate was 9000– 8000 dollars higher than other competing contractors for just standard wood. Nothing fancy… I thought the price was steep for standard wood flooring.
I was able to call the wood supplier directly and find high end Canadian brand for less.
The contractor from New York Floorman was nice but price was on the high side.

Rich and his crew really were great. I had to replace my floorboards since my neighbour damaged my flooring. Rich was super nice and was always available whenever I had a question for him. His team was also very professional and they did a great job. Will be recommended him to anyone who needs their floors redone! Thanks Rich!

2^nd time user of NY Floorman, this time I was unsure of which color to go with. I knew I wanted darker but could not tell how the colors would look in my apartment. They did 3 samples. one was far superior and that is what they did. THey look amazing. Last time I kept the same color, and they also did a great job so I went back. Fair prices, easy to deal with.

Please note: This review is only on the positive experience I had on the quote process.
I found Rich via Unilocal and called him on a Thursday to get a quote based on an estimated square footage of my apartment. He gave me what I considered to be a fair price per square foot (based on my research of average pricing for wood floor refinishing) over the phone and was able to meet me that same day to get exact measurements.
He was very accommodating to my schedule understanding that I wasn’t currently living in the apartment and needed some extra travel time.
The meeting was efficient and painless. He asked all the right questions and did not waste my time. He took down my email address and told me that he would email me the estimate.
I needed this job to be done asap and he assured me that he could start the work on Monday and be done in 2 days.
Sure enough later that evening he sent me the estimate via email. The ONLY reason why I went with another service provider is because I happened to get a referral from a very close friend the next day otherwise I would of DEFINITELY gone with NY Floorman.
I was very impressed just with this process alone.

Richard and Miguel are terrific. They were easy to work with, communicated well, and the resulting new floors look great!

They did a very good job on the floors in my apartment. They were very professional, courteous and hard-​working the entire time on site and they did the work very quickly and they also gave a very competitive quote. Very pleased with the way it worked out.

*Note that we went through the quote process, but did not actually have the work done. This is a review on his professionalism up to that point, as I cannot comment on the end work.*
We had a cleaner spill oven-​off onto a client’s hardwood floors recently. They got a quote from one of their contractors which came in absurdly high at $ 2800 ($ 450 just to «cover» the area). I saw Rich had good Unilocal ratings so gave him a call for a second estimate. He was very professional on the phone, and gave me a quote after I had only provided him pictures (his price was much more reasonable and in line with what we have seen for similar situations in other cities).
We also had him go over to the client’s to take a look at the actual damage to the hardwood floor; he kept in touch with me throughout the entire process and explained what would needed to be done. Although the client opted to go with another service provider, I will definitely be calling Rich in the future due to his professionalism and fair pricing.

Excellent results! I got my floors sanded, stained and sealed. The quote was fair and the floors turned out great! The team was professional and kept me informed on their progress– even sent a text picture to me at work so I could see the room after it was stained! I would highly recommend them!

I’ve used Rich and his team twice. I don’t know that I ever worked with a better contractor. He and his guys are trustworthy and extremely efficient workers. They start the job right away and finish in a timely manner. Their prices are fair and the quality of work fantastic. Truly a gem to the industry. Highly Highly recommend.
