This is a long overdue review for Marian and his crew of talented and hardworking flooring professionals and I hope this bears the weight it should.  I am a practicing home inspector who has also remodeled my fair share of projects over the years.  I have seen a fair amount of the good and an awful amount of the bad.  I was introduced to Marian back in 2003 to handle a couple of homes I was working on and I haven’t looked back since. Every job he has ever worked on that I have either hired him for or seen has been excellent.  He WILL NOT complete the job until it meets his critical eye nor will he sell you something that he thinks you don’t need.  Fairly priced and very communicative are two descriptions I could give among many others.  He is a flooring professional from the get go.It has been nearly ten years since my first project with Midwest and guess who did my own personal home when it was time?  You are correct, there was never a second’s doubt that he was going to be my guy on job.  Our floors were not easy to work with–we used salvaged oak with many a funky board, knot, swale, swirl, pock mark, etc.  They turned out beautifully and we are complemented every time a new guest arrives and asks what/how/who/why about them.  You will not be disappointed nor will you have to worry about the finished project.  Tell them what you want, hire them, and then let them do what they do best.  You will be thrilled.
