Description of Work: Doral was very professional, clear about what he could and couldn't do, and agreed to redo our baseboards after finishing the floors. He removed carpeting from two bedrooms and our main hallway, then had to remove some particle board under some of the carpet to get to the subfloor (the surprise we hadn't expected. We discussed and agreed upon an additional amount for the extra time and work, and the demo was completed that day. Next 2 days for install, sanding, fill and resanding, and the first coat went on the next morning. After 2 more coats, he installed all new baseboards. He recommended waiting 3-4 months before using rugs to ensure the floors are completely cured and hardened. They are beautiful, and we appreciate the quality of his work...

Excellent job! It was a pleasure doing business with Dorel. He is professional, punctual, and very attentive to the details of his work. He installed approximately 1500 square feet of wood flooring in our home. I would definately recommend his services to anybody looking for a floor installer. We are very satisfied with the results. He also works well around children, as he was very senstive to our needs throughout the job. Thank you Dorel for our "bello" floors. We hope to do business with you again in the future.
Description of Work: Installed 1000 square feet of hardwood oak flooring upstairs and 500 square feet of engineered maple wood downstairs in our home. Carpets were removed and baseboards were reinstalled after completion of floors.

Dorel, owner and operator of BELLO HARDWOOD FLOORING is an Artist. The pride in his work and the provider of superior customer service truly sets him apart. I have spent several years procrastinating about having my hardwood floors refinished. I have talked to several contractors and have done some research on the process, best products, etc., during that time. For various reasons I have continued to put off the project. About nine months ago a friend introduced me to Angie's List where I have sense found several great contractors for other needs (electrical & roofing). In July it finally dawned on me that with past success on getting quality contractors (electric & roof) why not someone to re-do my 1200 square feet of oak hardwood flooring. In reviewing the many contractor choices one name kept jumping out at me BELLO HARDWOOD FLOORING. The reviews that had been written by former customers of Bello Hardwood Flooring were incredible, almost to good to be true. As it turned out they were probably understated. Professional, courteous,enthusiastic,effective communicator,beautiful work, ALL TRUE. Dorel goes above and beyond at every phase of the refinishing process. He did things that were included in his original price that other contractors would not even do(replace all the old quarter round molding). At the start of the job while I had 220 electrical wiring in the laundry room it was not hook up (220 required for the big sander). He called a friend who is an electrical contractor who came to my home after work that same day and installed a plug. I could go on but if you ever want to have flooring work done in your home, do yourself a favor, call Dorel @ BELLO HARDWOOD FLOORING. And did I fail to mention "my wife and I LOVE the outcome" the floor is BEAUTIFUL. Dorel you are a true craftsman. If you sold stock in your company I would buy some.
Description of Work: Completely restore (sand, wood fill, stain and finish)1700 sq. ft. of oak hardwood flooring. Pull up all existing quarted round molding (450 ln. ft.) and replace with new.

At our initial meeting with Dorel, we were impressed with his professional demeanor and the way he went about measuring and evaluating what the job involved. We had requested another bid, but the other contractor who came to look over the job decided it was too large a job for him. Because we were so impressed with Dorel, we didn't look any further. Also, we felt we could rely on his top notch Angle's List reviews! Dorel is a master craftsman with an exceptional work ethic. He was punctual and conscientious, beginning work immediately upon arriving each day. We were concerned about moving the refrigerator to another room, but Dorel moved it for us, not an easy job through a tight space, and came back after the job was completed to put it back. Dorel worked alone, except for some help from his nephew with staining and applying the finish. He was very neat, efficient, and always concerned about keeping the disruption of our daily lives to a minimum. The floors are beautiful, you can't tell where the new wood was "feathered in" with the old. And best of all, the two types of wood match perfectly! We are extremely pleased with the job Dorel has done and recommend him highly. It is clear he takes pride in his work and customer satisfaction is very important to him. He is polite, respectful, and It was a pleasure having him work in our home.
Description of Work: The job consisted of removing and disposing of carpet and installing approximately 150 square feet of new wood flooring in hallways, "feathering it in" with existing wood floor, and refinishing older wood floors in the entry, 2 closets, kitchen, bathroom, and hallway to match. The total area of new and old refinishing was nearly 800 square feet. A problem was that the old flooring consisted of two types of oak (white and red) installed at different times in different finishes, that we hoped could be refinished to match. Prior to obtaining a bid, we learned it is quite unlikely the two types of wood could be matched because they take stain differently. In discussing it with Dorel when he bid on the job, he confirmed the fact that it would be difficult to match exactly, but with a dark enough stain, it could come close. We appreciated him being realistic concerning the problem, so our hopes wouldn't be too high regarding the outcome. Once the carpet was removed and new wood installed in the hallways, both the old and new wood flooring was sanded. In order for us to choose the appropriate stain, Dorel applied a number of samples to the floor where the two types of wood came together, leaving them overnight so we could see them in various lighting to help in our decision. The process of preparing the floor for stain involved sanding several times, both before and after applying wood filler to the entire floor. Dorel refinished wood vents and installed new oak baseboard beneath the kitchen and bathroom cabinets. Where new wood was installed in the hallways, he carefully removed and replaced the baseboard. Once the entire sanding process was completed, stain was applied. When completely dry, it was buffed, then finished with 3 coats of water-based floor finish. Dorel then had a carpet installer tack the carpet down in doorways where it had been cut to remove the hallway carpeting.

Dorel was an amazing person to work with. He worked very hard, doing all the work himself. He was such a pleasure to work with. We had an issue with our contractor, so we had to push the floor service back a week. He was willing to work with his other clients to make it work. He did a wonderful job on the floor, staining to perfect color. He even tried to work on getting the floor to limit the squeaking. There was also an issue with the electrical for the dryer area, which is what he used to sand the floor. He worked with us so we could get it fixed by available electrician to be right for him and for future for our dryer. He gave us extra stain and sealant and cleaning supplies. The floor turned out amazing. He told us ahead of time what to expect, did it within budget, in time frame, and even worked on 07/04 to get it done. I could not have asked for a better experience than what I got with Dorel. It was such a great change from the previous experience with our general contractor and made me appreciate Dorel even more. I have already recommended him to several friends who are looking to buy houses with hard wood flooring. We will definitely use him again.

My floors look fantastic! Dorel is professional and courteous. He goes through the process with you so you will understand the process and be happy with your choices. I could not be happier. My floors are stunning and the ultimate compliment was when another contractor came to give me a bid on a different project and he asked who had done my floors, he wanted to know if he had to do .any repairs. I told him yes and he said that it was clear that he knew what he was doing and I should be very pleased. I strongly recommend Dorel, he is a craftsman

Dorel was very professional from start to finish. He loves what he does and his enthusiasm shows. He wants to please his customers and works hard. The pride that Dorel has in his trade showed in a beautiful finished product, a floor that we will enjoy for many years to come. Always on time, Dorel was careful to clean up before leaving. I was pleasantly surprised that there there was minimal dust and odor during the project.
Description of Work: Removed old carpet from three bedrooms and hall exposing hardwood floor. Replaced a few boards that were not in good condition. Covered doorways and shelves in closet to minimize dust. Once Dorel checked to see that all the floor boards were secure, he sanded the wood. The wood was then stained and several coats of finish were applied. The results were dramatic. The floor looks like new.

My floors went from very ugly to absolutely beautiful. They look so pretty that I told my family that it will be a crying shame to cover them with large furnitures. Bello Flooring is a very friendly and knowledgable company and will definitely reccomend them.

it went very well. the only hiccup was that we both did not realize that the refrigerator could not be moved out of the space without taking the doors off, so we had a little delay until i could find an appliance guy to do that work. after that, it was smooth sailing.
Description of Work: bello hardwood flooring sanded, restained and finished the kitchen and dining area. the owner dorel solovastru was very responsive. came over and gave a bid within a few days of my calling. the bid for sanding the floor to bare wood, applying new stain and 3 coats of clear coat cost $3.25 per square foot which i thought reasonable. we mutually agreed upon a date for the work to be performed (he books out a month or 6 weeks). he sent me a contract to sign which i mailed back. he showed up promptly on the agreed upon date. the sanding took one day, and the staining and clear coat application too two days....three in total. he and his nephew assistant were very professional. they did a great job. they paid attention to all the little details that can make or break a project. my wife like the work so much, that we are going to invite them back to do another room.

HELLO, MY NAME IS DARRYL! I CONTACTED DOREL FROM BELLO HARDWOOD FLOORS TO TALK ABOUT THE PRACTICALITY OF REFINISHING A TWENTY-THREE YEAR OLD HARDWOOD KITCHEN AND DINING NOOK FLOOR. HE FIRST BROUGHT UP SOME SALIENT POINTS THAT I SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE DOING ANY RELATED REFINISH WORK; LIKE THERE HAD TO BE SUFFIICIENT WOOD MATERIAL LEFT ON THE WOOD PANELS FOR THE JOB TO BE DONE CORRECTLY. ALSO, THAT CERTAIN TYPES OF FLOORING HAD TO BE REPLACED. HE MENTIONED THAT IT WOULD BE BEST IF HE COULD TAKE A LOOK AT MY FLOOR AND THEN HE COULD GIVE ME A PROPER ASSESSMENT. WE SET AN APPOINTMENT TIME UP. HE SHOWED UP ON TIME AND WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND CORDIAL. HE INFORMED ME THAT MY FLOOR WAS REFINISHABLE AND WE SET UP A SCHEDULE FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE. HE ARRIVED ON TIME. HE TOOK CARE TO PROTECT THE BORDER ZONES AND AREAS PROXIMAL TO THE FLOOR. HE WAS WELL PREPARED AND WELL EQUIPPED. THE FLOOR WAS REFINISHED TO A BEAUTIFUL NEW LOOKING FLOOR. THE FINISHED PRODUCT LOOKS GREAT. I WOULD GLADLY RECOMMEND DOREL TO ANY PARTY WHO WANTS A FLOOR REFINISHED.

Dorel was the consummate professional. He was very punctual in arriving on time. He cleaned up his supplies and material completely at the end of each day. He answered his cell phone personally each time I needed to speak to him. At the end of the process, as the final coat dried, we found a few areas that touched the original flooring where the finish was not quite right in color, and upon giving him a call, he was there the next day and was able to adjust the depth of color to our satisfaction. He was a thoroughly pleasant and delightful person to work with.
Description of Work: After another contractor laid approximately 500 sq. ft. of hardwood floors in the hallway and family room, Dorel came to start the process of putting the finish on the raw floors. He first applied a paste-like material to the floor to fill in any imperfections or little cracks in the raw floor planks. After that dried, he used several large sanding machines in stages to sand the flooring to the appropriate fineness. The machines he used completely contained all the sawdust created by the sanding process. After that, he used a tack cloth to completely remove any residual sawdust or dirt on the floor. Since we were needing to match existing hardwood floors abutting the new flooring, he presented several custom matched samples for my approval and gave me the benefit of his expertise as to which would match the best. Then he applied the stain to the floor. Once the stain dried appropriately, he then gave another light sanding to the floor and began the process of applying several coats of finish to the floor. Since each coat required a few hours to dry between coats, he left and returned promptly when the next coat was due. He then sanded between each coat. From beginning to end, the process took about 2.5 days.

Dorel arrived on time to give us a bid on the job. We were so impressed with his knowledge and professionalism, that we cancelled the other bid appointments. We knew right off the bat we'd found the right man to do the job. Dorel has an amazing and extensive knowledge of hardwood flooring, staining and finishing. We needed a self-starter who we could trust to refinish our hardwood floors before we moved. Timing was critical as we needed the work completed before we moved our furniture into our mostly hardwood floor house. The scheduling with Dorel was a breeze as well. He even bumped us up in his scheduling to accommodate our needs when other work permitted. He came on time every day with his nephew to do work in our home and finished on time and on budget. Dorel gave us detailed guidelines and instructions throughout the process so there were no surprises. He was upfront with potential problems including a couple of intake vent covers. When the vent covers were damaged in the process of sanding, Dorel called us right away to offer solutions. He ordered replacement parts (which are superior to the originals) right away and stained them to match perfectly. We are so pleased with Dorel of Bello Hardwood Flooring that we will definitely use his again. Look no further. You've found the best!!!
Description of Work: Masterful craftsman! We needed complete sand and finish work on our hardwood floors in our home built in 1938. Dorel completed 1,100 sq. ft. of sand and finish work with new stain and finish absolutely perfectly.
