Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring Installation and Stair Capping (+Handrail refinishing)
Hi Everyone,
This is my first post on HOMESTARS. I normally don't have the time to post reviews - but Dragos asked me to do - and I couldn't say no given how how hard he worked to make sure that my floors and stairs turned out amazing.
I found Dragos (owner of Woodpecker Flooring) on Kijiji in 2016. I had him come out and quote me on a job. His price was competitive but timing didn't work as I needed the job done at a time which he had another commitment.
In August 2017 I needed a flooring guy again and remembered Dragos. He came to my property and after 3 visits we were able to nail down a competitive price for everything as well as a fair payment schedule (something that is very important when hiring any contractor you dont know well). This was a larger job so I was admittedly a little nervous about the $5000 deposit I had to pay up front.
Dragos took care of all of the flooring installation himself but also supervised the stair capping and railing re-finishing which was the work of his partner Daniel.
Together they did a great job. While Dragos's installation was fantastic what stood out the most to me was how clean was. At the end of each day Dragos meticulously cleaned-up after himself (something none of the other trades I have hired would ever ever do thoroughly).
Dragos was also open to changes to our contract/agreement (which was helpful when I had to cut back on some work - due to changes I made). And at the end of the job, there was some touch ups needed to the stairs - which Daniel came back and took care of for me.
I would definitely use Dragos (and Daniel) again, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family.

FYI - I have told Dragos that he can give my number as a reference to newbie clients. I am also happy to share pictures of the job Dragos and Daniel did for me.
