"David and his crew did an excellent job of refinishing my existing red oak floors including a new section in a foyer added to the home. The did the sanding, staining including providing 6 samples on the floor and the final finishing. I'm very happy with the results and the price was reasonable for the quality of the work delivered"

"Dave Gilbert and Sunshine Flooring are top notch. Friendly, helpful, professional and easy to work with. We thought we needed a floor repair, but it turned out our existing floor needed to be removed and replaced. In spite of the extra work, Dave's crew got the job done in accordance with the initial time frame. We are very pleased with the new floor. It matches perfectly! We will use them again if anything else comes up. I highly recommend them."

"They were punctual, and the floor refinishing went without a hitch. The floor now looks better than it did when it was first put in. The results were more than satisfactory. We were very happy about the whole experience. We are going to begin the floor replacement job soon. Will be glad to recommend them anytime."

Customers say: Quality work

"We hired Pierattini Hardwood Floors based on a recommendation from our realtor who had 2 other companies try to finish her floors and failed. Nicolas and his crew did an excellent job on transforming our floors to their original glory, the floors are now the highlight of our home. The crew was very professional and cleaned up after themselves after the job was complete."

"The bathroom tile job is very high quality work. Juan corrected some wall imperfections, suggested some aesthetic improvements to the original tile layout, and completed all the work at a good pace. He was able to start within a few days, and kept me apprised of the progress and changes to the schedule. The work is simply beautiful, and I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship and the look of the final result. Juan was polite, considerate and put in honest days' work each day of the job, breaking the work into sensible stages to prevent interfering with or disturbing tiles that needed to set before it was wise to work in an adjacent area. I will definitely call Juan for my next tile job, He was very easy to work with and could not have been nicer."

"Enriquez and his crew actually went above and beyond the original scope of work. Although he decided to replace more of the sidewalk concrete than quoted, he held the original price. Quality of the finishing was excellent as was the communication. Many positive comments from neighbors. I'd hire them in a wink if I needed more work."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Dry rot or severe water damage may warrant a replacement, but you don’t always need to replace damaged subflooring. If your subfloor has warped because it was installed incorrectly, you can sometimes shim the panels (in other words, add a thin, wedge-shaped piece of wood to level the surface). If your subfloor bows upward, you may be able to sand it down at the joist so it’s level, depending on the extent of the damage.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

If you’re doing a full bathroom remodel, the flooring will go in before the vanity and any other bathroom cabinetry. This will ensure that the same floor is present across your whole bathroom should you ever tear out your vanity and start again. 

If you can only budget for one or the other, you can still replace just the vanity in your bathroom. Just keep in mind that if you decide to replace your flooring later, you’ll need to tear out the vanity to avoid having mismatched floors.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.

The rule of three for flooring means that you should have a maximum of three flooring types throughout your home, such as hardwood in your bedroom and living room and tile in your kitchen and bathroom. The rule brings cohesion to your home and creates a seamless look. By using the same material, you also save money on future repairs.
