“I'm a residential home builder, and I previously managed the go to hardwood flooring supply business in town, when it was time to do my personal home, there was only one company I called. We did an extensive 1100 sq/ft addition to our home, Josh and his crew finished all our new flooring and also refinished our existing flooring. It all blends perfectly and looks amazing.”
“Josh and his crew are awesome. They did a fantastic job. Josh is great at communicating and did a great job with our floors and stairs. He did everything to make sure we were happy with the results.”
“A sincere thank you to Josh, Mike and the rest of the crew for doing such an outstanding job on our floors and staircase! This company is always very professional, punctual, and the craftsmanship is highly impressive!”
“We are so happy we found this company! They were very knowledgeable and gave us exactly the finish we wanted on our 5" White oak planks. They were professional, cleaned up nicely and very easy to work with! Most importantly they listened to find out exactly what look we wanted and made it happen. 5 Stars from us! Would highly recommend.”
“Josh and Mike did an awesome job on our floors. Their work is first-class... In our current house we have used four different refinishing companies over the last 20 years and Alabama Hardwood Restoration's work was the best of all. The floors bring me joy each time I enter the room. So smooth, the right color, and the perfect sheen and reveal of the grain.”
“These folks know their flooring! They did a great job finishing all the original hardwoods in our home a couple years ago and we are still in love! We highly recommend and we will definitely be using them for our future projects!”
“We used Alabama Hardwood Restoration for a couple of things and they absolutely exceeded our expectations on both. Brand new hardwood floors throughout our entire home and a STUNNING custom staircase! Their whole team was professional, detail focused, and got everything done in a timely manner. Highly recommend and will be using again in the future!”
“We highly recommend Alabama Hardwood Restoration. Josh and his team did excellent work refinishing our hardwood floors. Our original red oak floors were golden and glossy. We wanted an updated look that was lighter with a matte finish. They worked with us through several stain trials until we arrived at the perfect shade for our home. They also did a great job refinishing our staircase and updating the posts and balusters. All great work and reasonable price.”
“They just completed sanding, staining and finishing our floors in an 1890 era house. The original floors could not be saved so we put down 5" white oak. We couldn't be more pleased. They look fantastic. Josh and Mike were great to work with. Everything was left clean at the end of each day and they use a dustless vac on the equipment so we didn't have to tape up everything.”
