These guys are AWESOME! Communication was clear, timely and right on, my project was a little random and odd- they didn’t mind. They were no BS straightforward, get it done guys. They were fast and the quality exceeded anything I could have imagined for what I needed! They were clean and also SUPER reasonably priced. I would hire these guys again ANY time- and will be my go to for any future floor needs. You won’t be sorry you hired them.

We have used Against the Grain Flooring twice. The first time to refinish a wood floor in 1 room and again to install new wood flooring in a family/living room area. The workmanship is top notch and the results were beyond my expectations. John and Chris do beautiful work and they are a pleasure to deal with!! Cathy M., Sacramento, CA

John explained everything ge was going to do and he and his crew did it. We appreciated the expertise and thoroughness of the job. Most of the floors done had been under carpet dor decades. John also explained the different woods we had n this 91 yr old house. I was unaware! Crew was on time and effIcitent ! Cleaned up well!

Did a great job. Would suggest him in a New York minute. They go the distance. They did things not even required or requested. Johnny on the spot.

Against the grain flooring is an A plus company. John is truly a professional and takes great pride in his work. From our first meeting to the finished work, he always took the time to make sure we were satisfied and understood the process step by step. I have worked with many contractors in the past, and can honestly say that John is one of the best. I highly recommend him for any flooring needs

John Hanen refinished 600 Sq Ft of my momâ s 63 year old oak hardwood floors using a three coat finish and they turned out beautiful! We didnâ t know what to expect when the carpets were removed, We discovered a few problem areas and John worked his magic and removed stains and filled in spaces with transitional pieces in front of the fireplace hearth and bathroom door. He was professional, showed up on time, answered all our questions, was hardworking, detail oriented and he went the extra mile. We highly recommend John from Against the Grain Flooring.

Our floors look beautiful! The finish had broken down exposing the raw wood. The floors look gorgeous now with new finish. Their equipment had vacume so very little dust! When hardwood was put in years ago we had dust everywhere! Glad equipment has improved over the years. These guys know what they are doing. Great job...great experience!

Ours was the first LVT flooring that John had installed. It was a learning experience for us and John. Home Advisor helped us on resolving the problems that we had.

I am so appreciative to know and find Against the Grain Co. Clean, clear, complete and done with caring and professionalism. He described himself as a "wood" man as he sees his work as an art! And it is.
