04Floors

Hardwood and coated floors.

It is always more cost effective to refinish or patch sections when needed. We sand in stages, repair damaged boards to match, stain if you want a new color and finish the surface. New floors go on prepared subfloors.

For property managers

Turnovers that keep units earning.

Empty units mean lost revenue. Our teams can turn over 50+ units a week. You get one point of contact, and we schedule around move-outs so the next tenant can move in on time.

Questions we hear every week

How do estimates work?

Estimates are free. We visit or review photos, ask what you want done, and send a written scope and price. Nothing starts until you approve it.

Are you insured, and can you provide a certificate of insurance?

Yes, we are fully insured. Co-ops, condos and managing agents often ask for a certificate of insurance, and we can provide one. Send us the wording your building needs.

How long does it take to paint an apartment?

It depends on the size, the amount of repair and the trim and ceilings involved. We give you a schedule in the estimate and tell you early if anything changes it.

What paint do you use, and is low-VOC available?

We use professional-grade paint and can use the line and sheen that you, your designer or your building specifies. Low-VOC products are available. Tell us if you have a baby, pets or sensitivities and we will plan around them.

Do you handle co-op board approvals?

We provide the scope, schedule and insurance paperwork that boards usually ask for. The approval itself comes from the board. We plan work hours and elevator use around its rules.

How do you protect my furniture and floors?

We move furniture to the center of the room and cover it, lay floor protection, and tape edges and fixtures. At the end we clean up and put things back.

How does payment work?

Payment terms are written into your estimate before work begins, so you know the schedule up front. Ask us about terms for larger jobs or property manager accounts.

Do you only paint, or do you do other work too?

We also do hardwood flooring, kitchens and baths, millwork and carpentry, wallpaper, spray finishes and historic restoration. One crew can run the whole job.
