Customer Feedback:
Hi-Tech Hardwood Floors
“They are very good and reliable. They do what they say, when they say, and the quality of their work is unbelievable. What amazed us the most is the insulation under the hardwood floor. It made it so much quieter and more solid. Andy is a nice guy, and they are all good people.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
On The Spot
“Don does an amazing job. We have off-white carpeting, and when we had our library put in it was virtually destroyed. Don came in and with some persistence was able to completely restore it. His work is perfect, and we won’t go to anybody else. I’ve used some other companies and he is far superior.”
