Description of Work: I called Larry Helms Floor Sanding & Finishing to come out & look at a Bruce wooden floor to see if it could be refinished. They were responsive & professional. The floor could not be refinished but they told me what the options were. I have not made a decision yet on what to do to the floor but I will use them if I decide to go with wood replacement.

Great.
Description of Work: Very professional. They examined our hardwood floors and rather than sell us something we didn't need, they advised that just a good cleaning would be all they needed. They were right and the floors look great.

All the work turned out beautiful. They are just real easy to work with. They are punctual. They are clean. We have used them several times and are very happy with their work. They were reasonably priced and about the same as the other quotes that we got. It's a family owned company and they are from around here.
Description of Work: Larry Helms Floor Sanding & Refinishing finished some pine floors in a new construction for us about a month ago.

Gene Fry of G and L Construction did a terrible job installing the hardwood floors and refinishing them that we had to hire Helms to fix the floors by resanding and putting a new coat of finish.

I had a very good experience with them. They were prompt in coming to look at the floors and they met the schedule deadlines that I had. I wanted to do the floors while we were out of town and they were very accommodating to make it work with our schedule. I felt the quality of the work was very good. I don’t think they are probably the cheapest but I felt like I got what I paid for; I think it was a good value. They don’t move the furniture back in place once they are done so you need to make arrangements to get your furniture placed back in the rooms. They took out the washer and dryer for me but I think they were just being nice to me.
Description of Work: Larry Helms Floor Sanding and Refinishing did the hardwood floors in my dining room, laundry room, and kitchen.

They did not seem the least bit interested in having my business.
Description of Work: I had an appointment with these folks to come give us an estimate to refinish floors in our 2000 sq foot house. I waited for 35 minutes and they had not arrived or called. I then called them to complain that no one had called me about being late, and that so far, I was not impressed with their customer service. With absolutely no apology or attempt to "smooth things over" with me, I was told (direct quote) by Pat Helms: "We've been in business for 20 years. Do you think we care about your piddly job?" Direct quote. We then called Birmingham Flooring and have had a great experience with them.

Response from Larry Helms Floor Sanding & Refinishing Inc
ANYONE THAT KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT OUR COMPANY KNOWS THAT WE GO OUT OF OUR WAY TO SERVE OUR CUSTOMERS. WE STRIVE FOR PERFECTION AND TAKE PRIDE IN OUR WORKMANSHIP. WE MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT TO OF BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR 22 YEARS. WE CURRENTLY EMPLOYEE 43 PEOPLE. I'M TRULY SORRY THAT WE COULD NOT OF RESOLVED THIS MATTER IN A BETTER WAY. BEING 35 MINUTES LATE, TO GIVE A "FREE ESTIMATE" DID NOT DESERVE THE RUDENESS THAT WAS GIVEN. MATTER OF FACT SHE CALLED BACK A SECOND TIME TO CONTINUE THE DISPUTE OF LARRY BEING LATE AND HOW TERRIBLE WE WERE FOR MAKING HER WAIT! I SPOKE WITH LARRY AND TOLD THEM NOT TO CONTINUE LOOKING FOR THEIR ADDRESS. YES, I DID SAY THAT HER "PIDDLY JOB" WOULD NOT MAKE US OR BREAK US BUT ONLY AFTER I WAS GETTING NO WHERE WITH OUR CONVERSATION. I KNEW THAT IF SHE GOT THAT UPSET OVER BEING A FEW MINUTES LATE THAT IF WE WOULD OF GOT THE JOB AND MADE A MISTAKE, FLAW, ETC. WHAT WE WOULD OF HAD TO DEAL WITH. WE HAVE LEARNED THROUGH THE YEARS THAT WE DEFINITELY CANNOT PLEASE EVERYONE!

HAD TROUBLE GETTING CALLS RETURNED AND ESTIMATE DONE. WHEN JOB STARTED, IT WAS BETTER. THEY DID A FINE JOB BUT FAILED TO TELL ME THE MOLDING WASN''T INCLUDED. THEY RIPPED OUT SOME TRIM AND THREW IT AWAY. IT WOULD BE $200 EXTRA TO REDO THE TRIM. WE WORKED IT OUT AND I''M HAPPY WITH THE JOB BUT I HATE SURPRISES LIKE THIS!
