Get matched with top deck staining pros in Walhalla, SC

"Very well, with minimal supervision. Reliability and helpfulness is outstanding. However, my British background must admit: I do not have an English garden."

"Absolutely perfect. Lee was one of the most outstanding contractors I’ve ever had to hire. Very friendly, professional, and clean on everything they’ve done. Lee also was very helpful on helping us choose a color combination and choice which greatly improved at home. I will definitely be using him again in the future If I need other projects for our home. Very fast to respond and prompt on doing work and very fair on his pricing."

"The painters were very professional, very nice And they clean up everything. l am very pleased and will be recommending to anyone who needs anything done"

"These guys did a great job! Will keep them in mind for future renovation projects."

"Excellent, they were exactly on time for the estimate and the job, had the exact paint I requested and primed where needed. Very curteous and exacting with all the trim and details. Not a single flaw."

"Quick "spoiler alert" - we could not be happier with the outcome! Mike and his team on our project - SONNY & GARY (outstanding people and skilled workers) did a great job on what turned out to be a rather complicated flooring job with a lot of severe angle to cuts and odd transitions to deal with. It required skilled, careful work and a "good eye" for detail to be sure it was correct! And it certainly was!!! To rewind... We choose Mike Flaker because he was out quick to gives us a quote, explained the process and options we had. He also listened to what we wanted and gave us options accordingly as well as good suggestions we had not considered. He was super responsive to our follow-up questions by phone (or would run out in-person) to explain what we needed to know. Mike also discovered some issues on his walk through (hidden under the carpet) like squeaky floors and a slight settling in one side of the house. He gave us very cost effective solutions to mitigate the problem as part of an adjusted quote. As other problems were discovered on the stairs (again under the carpet) he and his crew made adjustments at no added cost even though it did slow their progress as they dealt with them. Mike also creatively used some materials we had previously purchased when this was to be a DYI project, saving us additional money on materials. He made adjustments to those materials to fit the situation - again saving us cash. During the process he was in constant communication. You will never be "ghosted" by this guy! If something came up requiring an unexpected delay you knew what was going on. This is a two way street so we had no issues when such problems came up as we always knew what was going on. As for the actual work...We had not used a contractor for anything in years and didn't think about the fact Mike was not going to be there for all the work but has several crews under him for different jobs. So his company really is only as good as the people he has hired and trained to carry out the work. I cannot speak about his other crews as of yet, but the key guys on our project - Sonny & Gary - were excellent! They were not only good people (very friendly and knew how to make friends with one of our rather skittish dogs with a daily treats - shared breakfast biscuits!) but were quite skilled and methodical in their approach. They explained what they were doing and showed us options on a very tricky central landing area with 6 doors entering in to from "all directions and angles". One wall required countless angled cuts - each one had to fit perfectly. They also suggested some ways to make that area look "next level" with how they handled the many room "threshold" transitions in the landing. Overall, they took their time and therefore saved materials by not making mistakes. It could have easily been "fast and sloppy" in places and that was not the case here. They also replaced all the baseboard and/or added some missing baseboard to complete the job. Again with excellent results. We plan to have Mike refinish our downstair solid oak floors with 18 years of age on them. We are confident at this point that Mike and his crew will match it all up with the new stairs for a really great final look between upstairs and down. In the end there are probably cheaper "floor guys" out there, but for what Mike, Sonny & Gary did and the extra time they took to correctly deal with issues they were quite reasonable. And I believe when skill is involved you get what you pay for! We highly recommend Flaker Flooring!"

"They had one guy on their crew that was terribly not caring about the work he performed. He even tilted the ladder back with a gallon of paint on it which went all over him and a large area of the $15,000 premium vinyl flank flooring we had professionally installed two weeks earlier."

"Douglas and his team did great work for us at our lake house on Lake Cherokee in Tamassee, SC. Needed to provide some new construction along with some remodel, it all came out great. Douglas listens and even did things that needed to be done that weren't to be on his to-dos! Best of all even with some adders he kept the project on the original budget. I would recommend Douglas any day!"
