I'm a detail-oriented (okay, picky) homeowner, so choosing the right flooring company was a big deal for me--especially because I was working with a very tight deadline. Creative Floors not only met my expectations... they completely surpassed them. The entire process was unbelievably easy. Ordering was straightforward, pricing was transparent, and Johnny wasted no time getting my condo measured. Their responsiveness alone sets them apart--every question I had was answered quickly, and the scheduling was handled like clockwork. When installation day came, Jose and the rest of the team were fantastic. Professional, efficient, respectful of my space, and clearly skilled at what they do. They got everything done within my narrow timeline without cutting corners, and the finished floors look phenomenal. If you want beautiful flooring, stress-free service, and a team that genuinely delivers on their promises, look no further. Huge thanks to Johnny, Jose, and the entire Creative Floors crew for making this project so smooth and successful. I couldn't be happier with the results.

My wife and I shopped around before choosing Creative Floors, and we're so glad we did. Johnny, the owner, helped us develop a cost-effective plan that perfectly fit our needs. Throughout the entire process, he was responsive, professional, and always available to answer our questions or address any concerns. We hired Creative Floors to install vinyl flooring on our second floor, along with new baseboards and shoe molding. We were also pleasantly surprised to learn that updating our staircase railing fit within our budget. The result is beautiful new flooring and a stunning stained railing with iron spindles. The transformation has been incredible. It truly feels like we have a new home. The difference is immediately noticeable when you walk through the front door. I would highly recommend Creative Floors to anyone looking for quality workmanship, great service, and excellent value.

Hallway with LVP flooring

I recently purchased a studio in Downtown Chicago and hired Creative Floors to remove my old flooring (carpet + tile) and install new LVP flooring that I had purchased myself. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. Johnny, the owner, was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and flexible with scheduling. During the initial assessment, the team listened carefully to my ideas and concerns and offered thoughtful solutions. They even custom-matched and installed a broken baseboard piece and supplied quarter rounds I didn't have--they went above and beyond what I expected. The project was completed efficiently in two days, and the crew was detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and respectful of my condo's HOA guidelines. They were patient as I worked through approvals and logistics, and they did a great job cleaning up both my unit and common areas. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the workmanship and overall service. Creative Floors delivers excellent results at competitive prices, and I would highly recommend Johnny and his team for any flooring project.

We loved working with Creative Floors for our carpet installation. From the quote to the installation, everything was prompt and professional. Highly recommend.

We had a great experience with Creative Floors and would definitely recommend them. The showroom has a great selection of samples and they were helpful with suggestions. They also met our tight timeline to order and install the carpet.

Kitchen. New LVP flooring plus all new trim.

Creative Floors did an excellent job. I had 3 other quotes and Creative Floors not only the most knowledgeable, but also beat the price of all the other companies. My questions were answered with very specific details. Johnny and his team were great to work with from start to finish. It was a smooth process- Communication, punctuality, and the time and attention to all the little details installing the new flooring. They also did my trim work and it came out beautifully. I'm very happy with their craftsmanship. They even moved my stove, fridge, and took out the 2 toilets and then reinstalled everything when they were finished. The crew cleaned up really nice, they were polite and respectful of our home, and they checked in with us throughout the process to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. The quality of the flooring we had put in is excellent and I know it will last for a very long time. I'm pleased that we went with Creative Floors Inc and we'll only go to them from now on if we ever want anything else done in our home in the future. Thank you so much!

Staircase

Truly gave our stairs a glow up! Johnny was very responsive regarding the initial estimate and quickly addressed any concerns or questions we had throughout the process. I was able to design every aspect of our new staircase including stain and paint color. His team worked all day for pretty much an entire week and cleaned up after themselves everyday. We are very happy with our beautiful new stairs!

Front hall and bedroom

We had our second floor redone in our home. We wanted to have carpet removed and match hardwood on our first floor. We were on a tight deadline with baby coming next month. Johnny was able to come quickly and offer a very competitive quote for work. He also was the only bidder who noted the leveling issues. We decided to have the floor leveled as well. Could not be happier with the floors and leveling. He is very responsive and corrects any concerns you may come across. Thank you Johnny!

Ketchup that was not cleaned immediately before it dried, was absorbed and became a floor stain

My reason to use this service was bc my floor was installed improperly. It was not pushed together at the seam. So I requested to have those gaps filled, so the gaps weren't so obvious. So the floor was sanded, the gaps were filled with floor putty And the whole floor was stained and finished with a water based sealant. Result: The floor was sanded (unevenly). Gaps became even more obvious with the putty they used (wood putty used does not stay in gaps, not pushed in all of the way). Floor was stained and sealed (finishing scratches easily, comes off or stains instantly) I reached out several times with my concern. Each time I was gaslighted and blamed for the issue. Even though I took care of the floor properly. Recorded and documented all of the issues, And communicated my concerns. And nothing was attempted to be fixed. End result, I had to hire someone else to fix what was disfigured. It saddens and frustrates me, that I had to go through this experience.

Like many others here, I had issues with Empire's installation and product. However, I think it's…read moreimportant to share that Empire eventually made things right for us. It took some time and patience, but after quite a bit of back and forth, we reached a satisfactory resolution, and our floors now look great. Stay calm and kind. Most of the people you speak with are not decision-makers; they relay your issues to those who are. If you treat them kindly, they will "fight" for you and prioritize you as a customer. If you're not satisfied, ask to speak with managers and have all your information and proper documentation ready. Again, I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to remain calm and kind. You can achieve a reasonable resolution. Don't give up and they will make things right.

I was incredibly unhappy with Empire. To begin with, they were the best price and they had a floor…read morethat matched others in a house I bought. The salesman did not notice that there was tile below the current floor or even think it might be an asbestos floor. I know he saw the floor because I watched him. When the installer showed up, he said he could not install because of the asbestos. I had it remediated and the installer came back. He put in the new floor but refused to move the furniture into the rooms or re-install the closet doors. He said they did not tell him he had to do this so he did not have a crew with him to do it. His supervisor promised another appointment in a few days to move everything back. I began calling Empire a day or so later to confirm the appointment and was told there was not one. Each call I made to them told me something different. Finally they told me that they would not move furniture into a room that they did not take it out of or re-install doors that they did not take down. My contract was clear that they move furniture in and out. There was one larger dresser that we could not get into the room and had to hire some moving guys to do that and of course, to pay for that. Empire has offered me a credit of $140 which is just a token to me. The salesman, the installer, the people on the phone, the supervisor, they all had a different story for the issues we were having. Hence, I would not recommend this company. And if you use them, not only get it in writing but record your phone calls (totally illegal) but I wish that I had.
