Kobey's Hardwood Flooring

Description of Work: Just got estimate not very into his profession.

Description of Work: He sanded and refinished the hardwood floors of two of our bedrooms. The floors had not been refinished since they were installed almost 50 years ago. They had many stains and scratches. I was concerned about removing the potentially brittle baseboards, which matched the rest of the woodwork including the doors and windows. They also were the original stain and could be hard to match today. We had houseguests expected in a week and wanted it done quickly. One guest had allergies, so we discussed drying time and potential residual odors.

Description of Work: This is the second tme we have used this hardwood floor company. We have a 1946 built house and are trying to put hardwood flooring back into the house. We first used this company 15 years ago to refinish a hardwood floor in our dinning room. This floor look as good today as it did the day they refinished it, and you have to walk through this room to get from end of the house to the other, so it gets a lot of traffic. In June we had this company back to refinish the exiting oak flooring that a room that we use as an office for our business. The oak flooring was original to the house and was in tough shape. Mark Kobey was able to sand it enough to get rid of all the discolored areas of the floor and all the scrapes and gouges. Mark Kobey was also able to work with my restriction of limiting the dust from sanding and using water based low VOC stain and finish as I am asthmatic. Both time that Kobeys hardwood flooring has worked in our house, there was little or no dust to be cleaned up and the water based low VOC stain and finish did not bother my asthma. We had Kobey's hardwood flooring back just this week to bid installation of oak flooring and a new oak stairway in our living room which is one of the last rooms with carpeting in our house. We are very exicited to get the bid as we know it will be reasonable.
