Description of Work: Anthony Littlejohn gave me an estimate for 500 sq ft of hardwood floor sanding and refinishing. He explained the entire process and how long it would take to complete. Pasquale Littlejohn arrived on the date we agreed to have the job started and worked the entire day sanding and removing the dust and debris from the house. He explained to me in detail everything he had done and what he would do the next two days. The next day he returned and put a coat of finish on the floor and Anthony returned the following day to complete the job. When he was finished, the floors he refinished looked fantastic. I did not think the floors could look as good as they do, (because they had not been refinished in 40 years.) Both Anthony and Pasquale are very professional and do exceptional work. I would definitely hire them again.

Description of Work: Anthony and his brother Pasquale did an amazing job on installing about 1000 square feet of hardwood floors in our home. They were extremely professional, and they took their job very seriously. It's clear that they are extremely knowledgeable and skilled in installing hardwood floors. The finished product is amazing and we are so pleased. What amazed me was their cleanliness! When they say they are dust free, they are NOT joking. I would highly recommend them to anyone serious about installing hardwood floors. You will not be disappointed.

The work exceeded expectations. Estimate was done in timely fashion and submitted in a clear, understandable and professional format. The Acme team arrived on time and immediately went about their work. It was clear from the "get go" they were experienced and knowledgeable about their job. Set up was done with the owner's needs in mind for example the placement of trailer with equipment was done in a manner that owner continued to have ease of access to home. Rugs removed and floors sanded on days 1 and 2. Dust was contained completely. Coatings applied on days 3 and 4. Polyurethane was used. Flooring ready on day 6. All members of the work team were professional and also personable and friendly. There was no wasted effort in time or materials and they paid attention to detail. This is a very hard working team that takes pride in their effort and work.
Description of Work: Restored hardwood floors in 6 room, two hallways,4 closets and one stairway. Removed rugs from areas beforehand and disposed of rugs.

From the first estimate, Anthony was very professional and detailed in describing exactly what would be done. The job began about a month after we agreed to the work and it took almost two weeks to complete, as it was a very large job. Anthony and Pascal worked with a larger crew for the demo work, but did the installing themselves. They did an excellent job of keeping us informed of the progress and we dealt with issues like the compromised subfloor as they came up. The floor looks beautiful, we couldn't be more pleased with the results! Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely use Acme Wood Floors if we need there services in the future and recommend them without hesitation.
Description of Work: Removed disgusting carpet and tile from the entire house except for the bedrooms and mudroom, installed select red oak to all of the above areas, repaired a large section of subfloor, installed a decorative strip of walnut surrounding the fireplace, installed several segments of nosing between rooms, refinished the pine stairs to match the rest of the floor, and applied an extra-durable finish for our busy household with kids and dogs.

It was excellent. They were very professional. They gave me a date that they would be there, they were there, and they did a great job. They were very courteous and very polite. When they say they are going to be there, they are which was very important for me because it would have held me up, costing me money, if they didn’t but they did. They were just very professional and pleasant. They were excellent in addressing my questions.

They did an excellent job on our floors. The price was fair, they use up to date products and techniques, they are prompt- had our family back in the house that evening. Anthony and his brother are easy going, pleasant guys to have around. Will definitely use them again to refinish the other floors in my house.

Actually as the finish looks so bad, I am paying another company to redo the floors. Less than 6 months after having the floors done i am so disappointed in the quality of the work.
Description of Work: Hardwood floors sanded and refinished. Anthony arrived on time and the work was done on time. I thought the finish would be shinier, asked for semigloss, turned out more matte then I wanted. The color was lighter than I expected, but was told it would "darken" over time. The last time the floors were done, the finish was richer and a better shine.

Response from Acme Wood Floors Llc
Hi (removed member name), I just wanted to say how sorry I am that you are paying another contractor to re sand your floors. This is the first time in 15 years that we had a complaint such as this one. If you were to call me and explain what is going on with your finish I would gladly come over and for free of charge add another coat of oil based finish or re sand your floors if the problems are really that bad. Having the species of wood that is in your home gives an antique look over the years and will darken with time. Being used to seeing a certain finish on your floors over a long period of time will show a stark difference once that old finish is stripped off the surface and a new finish applied. Having gone to 12 years of schooling and having an incredible consistent quality of work over our 15 year history I find this very surprising and i I am extremely concerned about this one job in particular. When we were unable to reach you throughout the entire job process it was very difficult to walk through the process with you and end with a result that would satisfy you. When customers who want a certain look and go on vacation for the time we are in your home doing something so aesthetically important it is always a bad idea. to have one present at the job to see the different progressions is critical in having a job come out the way you wanted. Having your floors re-sanded is your preference, but I feel it is a drastic measure considering that you have given me no chance to rectify the problem. My reputation is at stake here and I have a near perfect reputation with many other groups that expect high quality work and craftsmanship. I wish you would reconsider and give our company the chance to at least examine the floor after 6 months and see what you see. I am very reasonable and take pride in my work, so I will not disagree with you just to disagree. If these floors actually look as bad as you state please give me the chance to see for myself. I have and will never walk away from a job until I know for sure the customer is completely satisfied. When you gave me final payment and did not convey your important criticism at the time of payment gives me no chance to rectify and repair the situation. P.S. This customer was not present for any process of the job and was unavailable to go over the species that she had in her house and how it would look once finished. She was surprised after coming back from her trip to have such a different look. I tried explaining to her that it will darken over time because of the oils in the wood and the sensitivity to natural light. When leaving your home and seeing your 20 year old floor change so drastically has nothing to do with my company. It has to do with the species of wood that was installed in the house almost 20 years prior. I feel if (removed member name) was available and not out of town she would have been able to see the drastic change immediately and we could have discussed options,instead of being so surprised after arriving home and seeing the finished product. As far as the dull looking finish, we used the exact finish specified in estimate and applied it the same way the manufacturer specified. I have been applying this finish for over 15 years and this is the first time a customer has ever made such a claim. I want the opportunity to make it right.

Acme Wood Floors LLC came in very kindly, we had tried to do the floor ourselves and found that we couldn't so he came in got the work done so we could move back in our house. The products that he used were very low odor so we didn't have to evacuate our house at all, we have a lot of radiators and he was able to get under them, he did a fine job. He was very personable and easy to talk to. There were a few things that left me disappointed. We have an old floor and he had said that he could fill in the cracks and when all was said and done, he said the floors would look bad if he would have filled in the cracks but I wish that he would have perhaps offered a different option or if there was any other technique, even if it would have cost us more money because there are gaps and holes in the floor. There were knots in the wood that had come off and although we have sanded the floors in the past, we have never had that problem and he said that he did. Those are kind of the finished product that we were left with so it was disappointing. The price was fair and reasonable compared to quotes that we have got in the past. I would definitely use them again because I have met them and they have done work for us and he was here on time everyday, so he is someone you know you can call and he will do the work for you.
Description of Work: I used Acme Wood Floors LLC. They sanded and finished 2 of our hardwood floors.

Acme and Anthony Littlejohn are the best in the Capital District for flooring, bar none. I called on a Saturday morning for quotes and received three that day. I also spoke to two others on the phone who wanted to come out later in the week. Of the three I met, no others would personally do the work themselves nor had they had the air-filtration machine to clean the dust as it was being created while sanding. One older gentleman told me I would have to swifter the walls after the refinishing was complete. Another person told me his crew, and not him, would be doing the work. Of the three, Acme came in competitive with one other, while the third was much higher. After including the 10% coupon from Angie's List, Acme's price was the winner. Coupling the price with a knowledgeable owner-operator and a clean, dust-free house was clearly the only choice. As promised, work started on the following Thursday with the sanding, followed by buffing on Friday and two coats of sealer. The coat of poly was applied on Saturday morning since this worked best for my schedule. Fifty years of uncovered oak floors sparkle today with a high gloss done by a professional.
Description of Work: In short, Anthony refinished oak floors that had been carpeted since the house was built in 1962. The work included sanding, buffing, sealing and polyurethaning floors in a living room, dining room, kitchen and a hall. Work started on a Thursday for the sanding, buffing and sealing on the next Friday, and he even put the final coat of polyurethane on a Saturday. Hands down, this is the only company I would recommend: he is the owner and operator, working in conjunction with his two brothers. He is pleasant to talk to, answers all questions, is up-to-date on products and techniques, and leaves a dust-free house thanks to his particular work ethic and an industrial air-filtering machine.

They seemed very nice. I didn’t use them because the price wasn’t about what I wanted to spend. They quoted me about a couple of thousands for the job. The pricing was normal and reasonable for the floors but it was more than I could spend. So I didn’t do anything with the floors. I recently bought this house and I didn’t like the floors because it had an antique look. I was hoping to do something to it. But both people that came out to look at it said that there was nothing that they could do with it except to replace the entire floor. My experience with them went well. They weren’t rude or anything and they were fine. They were prompt.

Anthony and his brother did a fantastic job refinishing the hardwood floor in the kitchen and dining area. They used dustless sanding and a quick drying, low odor top quality finish that allowed the job to be completed in a day and half with very little disruption to the household for an elderly couple. They were prompt and worked quickly and efficiently, and finished earlier than expected. The work area was left very clean and virtually dust free. They were friendly and considerate, very professional, and highly knowledgeable about their craft. We were amazed how beautiful the floor turned out. We are very satisfied with the result and highly recommend Anthony and his team and their quality workmanship.
