Hardwood Floors For Less

Everyone knows the old saying “you get what you pay for”. Finding cheap hardwood floor services in the East Bay is an easy task. There are many unqualified wood floor contractors out there, both licensed and unlicensed. We are the ones called to fix the wood floors after the fact. We refinished wood floors all around the Bay Area. From Mill Valley to Piedmont and Alamo. It is the same old story every time. A home owner calls me to come look at a wood floor job that someone else messed up. From the time they first guy start working on the floors to the time I get the call to fix it two to three months have gone by. I recall an email from last year: a client who hired someone else to refinish their floors in Kensington emailed me to say that they “should have hired Avi’s Hardwood Floors”. Three months after the guy refinished their floors they were still not back in their home and the floors were so poorly done that they could not be fixed but had to be replaced.

So why is cheap hardwood floors not so cheap? Avi’s Hardwood Floors is what I refer to as “An honest licensed qualified company”. It is very simple: We visit the site, give you a detailed firm bid, stick to our deadlines and do the job right. We might be a little more expensive on some jobs but there is always a good reason for that. On a 1000 square foot job we might be $200 more or let’s say for the sake of argument $3000 more. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that if you hire the wrong person and they do the job poorly you’re looking at wasting weeks and months of your time, not to mention the agony of not having your home back yet. All of a sudden you’re standing there thinking you need to pay a lot more now to fix the job and you already paid a lot to the first guy. We’ve seen it too many times and I am sure we will see it more in the future.

When it comes to cheap wood floor companies there is no going around the fact that it doesn’t matter if you live in the Berkeley Hills, Walnut Creek or San Pablo. Everyone wants to save money. Everyone wants a decent job done on their floors. Sometimes it is better to hire a dustless refinishing company to do less of your floors but do it right, than hire an unqualified person to mess up your entire floor.
