My first disappointment came when I found out that by specializing in garage redos, Garage Envy is reluctant to, unlike a true general contractor, to customize beyond what's offered on their website, comprehensive though these offerings are. Thus, I had to hire another contractor to demolish the existing ugly drywall and I had to install wall insulation myself. Also, Garage Envy offered only one style of cabinet pulls, handles with projections that I feared might catch and rip clothes. Hence, after the redo, I had to replace the handles below head level with handles of my choice. I also had to install my own bench work light, a couple of security drawer locks, and magnetic latches on the cabinet doors (useful for keeping items from falling out of the cabinets onto the cars during a mild earthquake.) The general manager seemed keener on getting the job through the pipeline than with working with me to get the job done right. The first glitch was that the ceiling lights were in two rows of three instead of the agreed on three rows of two. When I mentioned this situation to the technical assistant, he explained that with his arrangement, the open garage door wouldn't block the two light from the front row. I thanked him for his sensible modification only to find after completion that the open garage door covered the front row of three ceiling lights! Well, it's no big deal since I never turn on the lights with the garage door open. The biggest glitch was that despite making clear that I wanted the side upper wall cabinets to have over six feet of head clearance for safety, the general manager ordered the standard cabinets which hung too low rather than the smaller cabinets. Well, it turns out that these smaller cabinets are custom and hence delays the completion of the job. I insisted on and got the smaller cabinets. By-the-way, four years later the cabinets still have the slight odor of formaldehyde. The next problem concerned the epoxy floor. I met the epoxy installer after he laid the floor at the end of his work day and he mentioned that he wanted to come back to put on the final touches. He never returned and the general manager dismissed my inquiry as to why. At the time the floor looked super so I let it go. Later, after completion, when I was mopping the floor, I noticed that the epoxy and flake finish on the four inch high concrete rim was very rough, unlike the lovely smooth floor surface. Could smoothing this rough rim be the finishing touch that the epoxy worker wanted to complete on the day after? The workers that Garage Envy hired did excellent work and behaved professionally with the exception that the drywall crew cleaned up in my garden leaving a mess, as well as leaving bits of plaster here and there that I had to clean up pronto before the plaster set hard. The tech assistant forgot to take into account the water softener pipes and so explained to me that either I had to settle for the work bench being two inches higher or I had to hire a plumper the next working day to lower the pipes. Fortunately I found a plumber on such short notice, since I know that even a mere two inches can make a big difference in comfort. If I recall correctly, Garage Envy may have given me a discount to make up for the plumber's expense. A couple of years later, an insulation contractor, while making a bid on installing supplemental insulation, inspected my garage attic and told me that the insulation was installed up-side-down, with the paper side on top hence exposed to sparks from any faulty wiring. Such a spark, she told me, could ignite the paper leading to a garage fire. By this time I figured that the easiest way to fix this problem was to climb in the garage attic and flip the insulation myself, so I don't know whether or not Garage Envy would've fixed this problem had I called it to its attention. I wish that for the question "Would you use this company/individual again in the future?:" I could answer "maybe." I answered "yes" for the simple and important reason that I love my new garage! It's a real man-cave! If I were to do it over again, I would've taken the standard advice and got two other bids in addition to the Garage Envy bid so as to see just what my options would be."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/unknown/garage-envy-reviews-7510760.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"OLIVEIRA'S FASHION FLOORS","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Carl P."},"reviewBody":"Was referred by a friend that use to work there. Steve is very pleasant and easy to work with. He gave me a quote, and was quite willing to look at remnants with me when I balked at the price. Found some remnants I liked, that fit perfectly in the rooms. Took 2 days to put in the carpet. Asked to hold off on vinyl as was planning to do work in kitchen involving some counter removal. Carpet put in, with doors and closet doors inside closets due to not fitting with new carpet taller than wood floor. Debris on floors, carpet fibers on floors, pieces of padding in closets. Separator strip between living room and master bedroom broken off, not replaced. Decided not to have kitchen counter fixed, so had them install vinyl in kitchen. Done quickly, but, again, no divider strip installed. Called the company, and they said it would be done the next day. Came in, and did the strip between the kitchen and living room, but missed the one between the bedroom and kitchen. Finally got that one done a couple of days later.
Also, I had asked for the remnants of the remnant pieces to keep in case of carpet damage later needing patches. Only got any material back from one piece of carpet ( had 2 diff colors ) and I had to go to the store to get that.
Overall, they do good work, but don't follow through. Check over their work after to make sure everything is done. And expect to clean up after."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/lompoc/oliveira%27s-fashion-floors-reviews-4877083.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"GARAGE & CLOSET KINGDOM","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"JEFF T."},"reviewBody":"I recently contacted Garage and Closet Kingdom regarding an installation question, I was very pleased with their immediate response time.

I would not and highly encourage Home Advisor to not recommend Precise Remodeling to anyone. He walked off the job five weeks into our master bathroom remodel after we asked about the remaining timeframe of work completion. He was offended and left very angry. Our remodel began in early...

After having an issue with his supplier the contractor without any cost to me gave me upgraded windows on a rush basis and did excellent work. I had two homes done, a total of 13 windows installed in one day Very professional, careful with your property and clean up afterwards.
I recently contacted Garage and Closet Kingdom regarding an installation question, I was very pleased with their immediate response time. I would most defiantly contact Garage and Closet Kingdom in the future for my garage and closet needs. I appreciated their professionalism.

FAQs for flooring projects in Vandenberg Village, CA
The cost of flooring installation is $3,000 for the average homeowner. This cost can range from $1,500 to $4,500, depending on the project size, flooring material, and any special features. For example, if stairs need new flooring, you can expect to pay about $11 to $160 per step. Additionally, hardwood flooring costs significantly more than linoleum, with hardwood ranging from $6 to $22 per square foot and linoleum costing $3 to $7 per square foot.
Believe it or not, adding new flooring—especially floors like hardwood, laminate, tile, or vinyl—can add significant value to your home. If you update your flooring close to when you sell your home, you can see up to a 70% ROI on your new floors. Adding new flooring to your home is one of the quickest ways to make the whole room look refreshed and new, which is a positive point for selling.
While you certainly can install new flooring yourself, it may not always be the best idea. Since the condition of the floors is a significant component of your property’s value, it’s important that your project looks professionally done. If not, you run the risk of needing to have them replaced again before selling your home. If you’re looking to save money on the cost of floor installation, consider removing the old flooring yourself to save on labor costs.
When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines.
Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
It takes about one to three days for a two-person crew to lay 800 to 1,000 square feet of flooring daily. Remember that removal of existing flooring and additional prep work is considered during this time, and it’s likely that you won’t be able to pass through the room easily. In addition, you can expect lots of hammering and other noise from power tools during installation, so it’s best to plan accordingly.
