Midwest Hardwood did a FANTASTIC job on the installation of new red oak hardwood floors in my home! They installed hardwood in our five bedrooms and two staircases during two weeks - this area was previously carpeted.

The house has some unique features, including a curved central staircase and floating stairs, and they worked hard to make these challenging spots perfect. Marian is very detail-oriented, meticulous and honest, and he is very concerned with making sure that he gets the results that the customer wants.

He asked for my input throughout the process and always had good opinions on how to make things better. He even gave advice on a floor refinishing project that I was working on downstairs. I got stuck re-finishing parquet floors by myself after a different set of floor re-finishers refused to sand them, and Marian gave a lot of advice on how I should glue loose parquet tiles, what stain to use, etc. He really did the job of the other floor guys for them, in addition to doing his own job in the bedrooms!

It's hard to give a review on Angie's List sometimes because you don't know what other contractors are like, but since I was working with two flooring contractors at the same time (Midwest Hardwood for the red oak and a different guy for the parquet refinishing), I could clearly see that Midwest Hardwood is one of the best in the business!

Midwest Hardwood Floors, and the crew arrived on time (or early) every day and worked carefully all day with few breaks. He even brought in extra workers to make sure that the project was done on time. They cleaned up each day after they left and were very nice guys. Marian worked hard to retain the baseboards, he had to remove them to lay the hardwood, and if they were broken we'd have to pay him to make new ones.

None of them were broken! They never tried to over-sell us and the project came out right at the estimated cost - not over cost. Every day he showed me what they were working on and gave me a progress update.

The finished floors look phenomenal - they are beautifully laid and flawless, and they perfectly match the other red oak details in the house. The curved staircase is really a work of art! They spent several days on it, and the details are exquisite! There are no seams or gaps in the wood.

My husband and I are so thrilled with the results, and we highly recommend Midwest Hardwood to anyone who is looking for help with any type of flooring project!
