BUONO FLOORING CO

They made me a bunch of samples of custom stained floors until we all agreed we found the look we were hoping to achieve. They installed, sanded and finished the floor to perfection, and the original floor we wanted is still backordered!

I decided to pull the plug on my gym membership, but first had to put some work into my basement to make it decent enough to work out in. I eventually spoke with Lou and was immediately drawn to the direction he provided. Maybe I wasn't speaking to companies with enough experience in this, but he was the only one that didn't want to do an interlocking floor, but instead a thick and adhered rubber gym floor that looks better than the floor at the LA Fitness I went to.

Buono was overall great to deal with. Unlike other Contractors that we initially requested quotes from, Buono was very honest and did not attempt to upsell or recommend anything more than what we really needed. Once hired, they were prompt and communicative throughout the process. They were even able to complete the project earlier than expected, which made us really happy. Most importantly, the final product looks great and the new floors have had an amazing impact on how our entire apartment feels. I would definitely recommend Buono for any flooring project you have planned.

I recently purchased a coop apartment and decided to take a full renovation around the house. Just like many other people I hired Buono's Flooring to refinish the floor(about 900 sf) even though there were companies that offered much cheaper quotes because Buono's had several good reviews. I will not go into the details outside the flooring job although I have to say Buono's Flooring had violated my community parking rules and almost costed me $500 fine and project rejected. It took them 4 days to "complete" their work although they said it'd take 2-3 days. I don't mind delayed work if it's for the quality of work but it was entirely because of their own schedule for they had "another work to do" and had to leave after 4-5 hours of work almost everyday. In addition there was no word about the work progress. On the 4th day around noon I had an email from Buono's that their work will be done around 1PM and they want me to be there to approve the work and make the final payment. When I arrived, the guy said I can't go in because the floor is still wet but still he wanted me to just pay the whole remaining balance. I refused to do so because I wanted to see the place with my eyes and make sure all the job's done correctly. The guy had to leave because he had another work to do and their office told me that they will send someone by 4-5PM when the floor is adequately dry so we can walk through the house to see the work. I waited and waited outside until 5:30PM and no one came and no word from Buono's. When I called they said no one's coming because it's too late and they had nobody available. When I went inside the house, I immediately noticed several areas I specifically requested to fix were not fixed at all. In addition, There were still a bunch of flooring material, a bucket of construction waste and garbage lying around the balcony and in the kitchen. The next day I told Buono's that they need to come finish their work once my other contractor gets their job done. Their president immediately refused to wait and demanded an immediate payment otherwise he will take legal action and contact my co op management and other contractors to give me bad reputation. Long story short, he waited and fixed a few spots(with $5 wood putty) and took out the materials and garbage but I was so sick and tired of dealing with this company at this point that I wouldn't care about the work. Their crew were rude. There was no one overseeing the work for the whole time. They are way overpriced compare to other flooring companies and the final work result was beyond disappointing and terrible. On top of everything their management wouldn't hesitate to threat a client even when it's clearly their fault. How could this company stay in business or even get good reviews?

Do not hire this company. I hired them based on old reviews from Yelp and Angies list to finish my new staircase. I mentioned to them repeatedly that I just had my house painted and to please be extra careful. Well they did the total opposite and left me with unnecessary damage to my walls. Also they rushed the job and paid no attention to the fine details. Not to mention they are Bona certified but I caught them not mixing the product correctly. To rush the Job they left out the hardner and mixed in a drying solution to aid the drying process between coats leaving my staircase not properly protected. They did not allow the product to fully dry before adding additional coats. I did not pay them the remaining balance until they came back and did the job correctly. But I had to be the one to supervise and make sure that the product was mixed with the right ingredients. They came back the next day and did the job the way it was supposed to be, but do you want to go through that??

Good job professional and clean

Was not explained clear what I really need it but the end result was fine
