Ben Kai

Had these folks in to go over an old ceramic tile floor where some tiles were cracked and all the old grout was breaking with vinyl plank flooring instead - and they did an excellent job. I was skeptical at first how this would look, but it turned out really well, at a decent price, and quick turnaround. Grateful to Blaine & the team for making this happen, and for the good quality service throughout. Five stars!

Blaine did an amazing job with our original maple floors. We had some minor water damage causing a few boards to buckle and we needed them refinished after years of being a student house. Blaine was able to do this job quickly and professionally.

Blaine and the team at Silvercreek Hardwood Flooring are incredible. They refinished my original1970's parquet floor in the main level and upper level of the house, and repaired the areas that had water damage. They were able to sand down a really old and yellowed finish and stained it a beautiful brown colour (Early American). The floors are incredibly smooth and look practically new. No one can believe it's the the same floor. I can't say enough good things about Blaine and his team. They take pride in their work and it shows in the final result. Plus, they were punctual and very communicative throughout the entire process

We recently needed our Red Oak kitchen hardwood floor refinished and this company did a fantastic job. They were very professional and nice to work with. They did the job in 3 days. They worked with me on the colour and I am thrilled with the results. The team doing the work were careful and put drop sheets down on my existing carpet and were very nice also. Hector even came back to touch up a few areas of the cracks that were missed before they did the finish coats. Thanks to Blaine, Hector (a wealth of knowledge) and Cody for a fantastic job. I highly recommend this company if you need floors refinished.

Blaine & Matt did an amazing job at refinishing our old hardwood floors. Blaine's years of experience is evident in the end results. Excellent workmanship & great people to work with. We couldn't be happier.

Before you hire a flooring installer in Ontario

No provincial licence required. Manufacturer installation requirements are the real standard, because they govern your warranty.

General liability insurance and WSIB clearance

Standard checks.

Manufacturer installation compliance

Most flooring warranties specify subfloor flatness, moisture content and acclimation. Departing from them voids coverage, and the manufacturer will ask for evidence if you claim.

Moisture testing for concrete subfloors

Basements and slab-on-grade need a moisture test before wood or glue-down vinyl goes on. Skipping it is the most common cause of catastrophic basement floor failure.

Asbestos assessment for pre-1990 flooring

Old vinyl tile and its adhesive can contain asbestos. It must not be sanded or dry-scraped without assessment.

Questions worth asking

  • Is subfloor preparation included, and what happens if the floor turns out to be uneven?
  • Is removal and disposal of the existing flooring in this price?
  • How long will the material acclimate on site before installation?
  • For basements or concrete: will you moisture-test the slab first?
  • Are transitions, baseboard, quarter round and stair nosing included?
