What our clients say

Celina C., New York, NY

I don't know where to begin with this review. We had brand new hardwood floors installed in our condo in 2003 and had not had anything done to them since then. We had never even had

them buffed. Recently we had the whole place renovated because we needed to sell quickly in order to relocate.The contractor we hired did not sand the floor well and applied a dark stain and it looked horrible. They did not have the proper equipment nor the expertise, therefore the finish was streaked and uneven and roughly textured. We thought they were ruined for sure, and that we would not be able to sell our place. So we found Ciprian on Yelp and gave them a call since they had a whopping five star average review. He responded within the hour and asked for details on the job as well as some photos and he gave me a quote right on the spot via email. They were able to come in 2 days later and completely resand and refinish our floors in about a day and a half. When they were done, we were astonished! The floors were beautiful! They looked as good as new! This family of three... A son, a father, and uncle... Was skilled, Pleasant, and 100% professional. Ciprian told me upfront how much everything was going to cost, what he could and could not do, how long the job was going to take, and did not require any down payment up front. They finished the job exactly as he said and there were no hidden surprises at all. In and out, perfect job. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a beautiful floor job done.

These guys are fantastic! Ciprian is super communicative and great at providing you options. Had an issue with my floor due to a leak and he walked me through a couple of potential remedies.

Took my budget and timeline into consideration and had the job done wonderfully. Highly recommend!

Raja G., San Diego, CA

They were easy to schedule, and were prompt. Appreciated the quick service and good quality. Would use them again if I needed wood work done.

Krishna R., Chicago, IL

I messed up my beautiful (and ridiculously expensive) Brazilian cherrywood floors. Let's just say that oven grease and floors do not mix well. Ciprian got back to me immediately,

came to my place within an hour, then came back early the next morning with his assistant (exactly on time!), spent 2 hours sanding and refinishing the mess, and applied several coats of varnish. He was honest and set my expectations straight, and delivered very promptly. I'll still have to put an area rug over it when entertaining (that's the nature of a patch job, as the varnish can't match the exact color of wood after it's been lightened by the sun), but I'm confident over time it'll fade and work out. Good guy -- I highly recommend him for your floor care!

Have had two great experiences with Ciprian!!!! Very professional, great prices, and great work. We will definitely be using them for our next hardwood floor project.

Sarah T., Chicago, IL

Ciprian is knowledgable, kind, communicative, and prompt. I can't say enough good things about him and family-owned company. He responded quickly to my email,

scheduled a visit to give a free estimate, and began work just a few days later. Since I was in California during the work, he keep me updated via text and email and even included pictures of the progress to put my mind at ease. After the work was completed, we walked through the unit and found the work to be of the highest quality. The price is beyond reasonable given the work quality and professionalism. 100% recommended!

Fernando T., Ventura, CA

Just look at my pictures and you'll see exactly the quality you can expect from this father/son team. They worked with my schedule and came exactly on time, and had the work completed

exactly when they promised. I will definitely be using them for any floor needs I have in the future. Couldn't recommend them any higher!

J H., Des Plaines, IL

Father/Son team with excellent knowledge of their trade and take tremendous pride in their work. My floors came out much than expected. Plus, they did a great job cleaning up at the

conclusion of the job. Would definitely recommend them for flooring projects.

Paul B., Chicago, IL

If you have hardwood floors that need to be resurfaced, have boards fixed, or anything else, Ciprian should be your first call. We had such an awesome experience with him from start to finish

(which was only 1.5 days after he started!) I requested about 10 quotes from various companies and people on Yelp. Cip was the first to get back to me and his prices remained the best even after receiving responses from 7 other companies. Cip made time to come over and see the apartment at 8:30pm on a Thursday to confirm the square footage. He showed us broken boards that needed to be fixed and a couple other items. You could instantly tell that he has been doing this for a long time and knew exactly what he was doing. He confirmed the price and told us when he could start. He confirmed the pricing and details over email with me before he started and sent a follow-up text to confirm the night before. 1 day before they started we decided to add another entire kitchen and bedroom. Cip worked with us on the price and had no problems adding it in. Even with this last minute addition, Cip and team completed everything far faster than anticipated. He arrived 2 minutes early (6:28am) and began right away. He kept us updated the entire time if there were additional boards to be fixed, and sent progress pictures every step of the way (which were nothing short of amazing). When he finished they cleaned everything up and were super professional. I could not recommend Cip and team enough and will be using him on any hardwood projects we have going forward. See the amazing pictures attached, and thank you again Cip and team!

Jiayu C., Chicago, IL

Cip and his team really completed a good project for my house! I can't say how much I love my new floor now. Cip is easy to book Appt and nice to talk. During our discussion, he provided

us good suggestions and a quick quote. We really felt comfortable so we decided to work with him. I am glad I did the right decision. He started it as soon as possible and completed with quality. He has a good habit which is share the process every day after work to give me a clear understanding of my projects. When we chose stain color, he really gave me a surprise. I asked some sample color but I still think it's not exactly what I want. Cip kept patience to make me samples and finally made a beautiful color to me! I really appreciate. He is a responsible man also. In the last day he showed me everywhere in the room and explain me how to protect new floor. What makes me feel warm is he told me don't use the tap in the kitchen because the fridge is not there and he left a note on my tap to notice me. He is so thoughtful. If he didn't tell me, I will not know this because This is the first time I buy a house maybe I will ruin my floor. Anyway, choose Cip is a 100% good decision to work with on the floor!

James S., Chicago, IL

Having floors replaced can be stressful! Ciprian was so easy to work with - friendly, responsible, honest and dependable. From the quote all the way through putting my furniture

back into place, they were amazing! The new flooring matched 15 year old wood and is completely unnoticeable. I would highly recommend their services and will definitely call them again anytime I have flooring needs.

Rosie T., Chicago, IL

Professional, knowledgeable, friendly, prompt, and top quality. Ciprian took our job in spite of a very tight timeline with our move into our 1925 Chicago brick bungalow. We have

the original 1" hardwood floors that looked like they had not been refinished since the 50s. Areas were worn to the wood and creaked like crazy.

He respected the historic doors, radiators, and floors by working carefully around them. He explained his recommendations and provided me with an estimate right away. His price was extremely fair and you cannot beat the quality. He did NOT cut corners. They sanded 3 times and applied three coats of finish. He knew how short the timeframe was before furniture delivery and worked tirelessly to get it done quickly. He followed up with me to make sure we were pleased with the work and provided care instructions for the movers and future care.

The house feels and looks fresh and bright. They glued the loose boards and without nailing a thing, they were able to stabilize most of the creakiness. (I was thankful because the other way was to break through the plaster ceiling in the basement and work bottom-up or nail down through the floor and potentially risk electrical wires. Ciprian made great suggestions and we were glad to follow his recommendations. We won't need a refinishing again for 5 or 10 years, but when we do, this is our guy!

Mark "The Maj" M., Morton Grove, IL

I chose Ciprian because he called me right after I requested a quote through yelp, was able to come over that night to quote the job, was very friendly, and most importantly responded

to my emails/calls/texts in a timely manner. I had carpet in a bedroom and wanted to install hardwood to match the rest of my condo. The stain was difficult to match, but he went above and beyond to try to match the stain as much as possible. It's hard to say if someone else would put that much effort in. He also finished the job quickly in the 1.5 days and cleaned up thoroughly when he was done. There was no saw dust that I had to clean. He also called me a few days after to make sure I was happy with the result. I definitely recommend Ciprian!

Lawrence P., Chicago, IL

Ciprian and his team did an amazing job on refinishing the floors on my new condo. He is a consummate professional. He arrived on time, was communicative throughout the process,

paid attention to detail, cleaned up throughly, and provided timely responses to my follow up questions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone procuring hardwood flooring services.

Osh N., Evanston, IL

Ciprian and his staff do great work. I'm a real estate broker and property manager. My brand, North Side Home Guy, is very important to me. I only recommend tradesmen that do

quality work. He answers his calls, is very polite, and gets the job done. He works hard to keep his clients happy. I have used him for two jobs now. I am proud to recommend Ciprian. He is professional and does high quality work.

Frances E., Chicago, IL

My husband and I bought a condo recently and it seemed like the previous owners were handicapped so the floor were all scratched up and had water damage in certain areas.

We quoted with a lot of places but they were ridiculously overpriced. We just needed to polish and stain the floor...not install a new one by the looks of the competitors prices! We're so happy to have found Ciprian! My husband met with him and another worker at the new place around 7am and he was done by 5pm. The floors look AMAZING! Like nothing ever happened to them or that there was never any water damage! I looks like we got NEW hardwood floor installed. Not only did he do an amazing job, but Ciprian is a super nice guy! He didn't leave until we peeked at the floor to approve it and followed up with us a few days later when we were able to walk in the condo to see if we still approved of his work. Hands down, best in the business!

Shayna D., Chicago, IL

Ciprian is great! My husband and I just got a new place and floors desperately needed to be redone/replaced. There was also carpet in the bedrooms that needed to be pulled out

and hardwood put there. Ciprian was the first contractor we met - and let's just say the search ended there!!! He came for a free consultation. During that time he advised us on all our options. He suggested the brand of flooring and where to purchase the flooring. We did research on our own for the same. Indeed his suggestions were the best. In fact, the store was the cheapest flooring in the area! Ciprian and his crew finished our 2b2b place in just 3 days!! We were amazed! They were fast, clean, friendly, and super helpful!! Ciprian will definitely not disappoint. Oh, his pricing is very resonable as well! Go with Ciprian - you won't regret it!

Joe M., Chicago, IL

After tearing out the old tile and having just bare joist, we had a two year old and needed everything from leveling the floor and laying out subfloor.

We took ourchances with the great reviews from yelp, and didnt hesitate to give ciprian a chance. He had everthing done in two days, and was on time everyday . He did a GREAT!! Job and we were very pleased with his work. I would , and i will use him as feference for future jobs.

Susanne D., Evanston, IL

Ciprian was recommended by our realtor to repair a badly damaged pine floor. For very little more money he completely removed the old floor and installed a beautiful oak floor in its place.

We are so happy to know about him and recommend his work very highly. He and the crew finished in a day and a half, came in early to fit it around his other jobs, were very careful about keeping the living room carpet clean and keeping the house dust-free. I am so happy we heard about him! Would hire him again if we have another floor to fix. Great job!
