We have original hardwood floors in our home that the previous owner painted over with a very dark paint. After years of it peeling off and looking horrible, we decided to have them refinished. We contacted a few places for estimates and decided to go with Mike. We are so impressed with the high quality of work he does. He is very communicative and explains everything in detail. He works hard and is very fast. He informed us of progress every step of the way making sure we had realistic expectations of what the outcome could be. The final outcome was absolutely mind blowing! The floors look like brand new floors! Mike is very trustworthy and takes alot of care covering important items in your home while working. We recommend Mike for any job you may have. read more

You ask yourself - WHY would anybody carpet over hardwood floors? So you take up the carpet and you see - uh, they also PAINTED the hardwood floors, and then you take up the paint and see - oh, they were covering GIGANTIC pee stains. So that was super gross. Thank goodness for Michael. When he originally came Michael was up front. He gave me a quote and said we won't know what condition the wood is in until we rip the carpet out. We had many talks. Michael was great about keeping me informed every step of the way and helping me to decide how to proceed and updating the quote as we went so there were no surprises. He was completely professional and answered my million questions. My floors are done, and they are gorgeous. I highly recommend Michael, but get on his books early because he is in demand! read more

Highly recommend Mike's expertise for your wood floors. He was incredibly helpful and so knowledgeable as I considered refinishing my original 1952 oak floors. I'm so happy I did! And more importantly, that I made the choice to refinish with Mike. He took great care with the floors, prepared me for all the steps in the process, communicated effectively and did a great job. He offered the same price as he had quoted me the previous Spring, even though I had the job done several months later. And the floors turned out gorgeous, with the matte finish I was looking for.

Our home was built in 1937 with red oak floors. A previous owner refinished the main areas, except for the carpeted master and another bedroom. The other bedroom had been sanded likely later, but not finished and didn't match the hallway. My wife wanted to replace the carpet, but I had found Mike after looking everywhere for a real pro. However, the timing wasn't right. It turned out later that my wife was visiting her parents for a week over the 4th of July. I called Mike and he had a lucky gap and could start on the 1st and finish on the 4th. All we needed to do was empty two rooms of furniture, the small office off the master, the walk-in closet, and a walk-in closet in the hallway. The pictures show it all. Two days to sand, fill and sand and apply the first coat of the finish. Sand and polyurethane on the third day and finally done on the 4th of July. In all, Mike did the two rooms, the small office and two walk-in closets and long hallway, and even patched a chip in the old floor in the living room! The price was fair and done professionally. Mike is an expert and leaves everything clean and beautiful. read more

I'm the director of restoration at a schoolhouse that was established in 1895. The wood floors were replaced in the 1950's and I don't think they had ever been refinished. So I had 70 year old floors, damaged in several areas and some areas that had missing wood all together. I reached out to three contractors and Mike at Oceanside Hardwood Flooring gave the best quote, plus he was more knowledgeable about the floors than any one else. He told me I had white oak instead of red oak. We discussed whether to stain them or keep them natural and I'm so glad I listened to him and kept them natural. They turned out absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend Oceanside Hardwood Flooring. Mike is genuine and dedicated to excellent work. Really, the pictures speak for themselves...so happy with everything! read more

I had Mike come out and give me a bid to install Bamboo floors. It was only a couple of rooms. After looking at the job Mike called me twice afterwards before giving me the bid to discuss possible issue and very good advice. After thinking about his observations and reducing the scope of the project, i decided on doing it myself. With that said, I found Mike to SUPER nice and very knowledgeable and would absolutely recommend him to anybody. His attention to detail even after he left my house tells me the kind of craftsman he would be. Thank you Mike! read more

Mike did an amazing job on the old, walnut stained and pet stained oak floors in the 1959 house we bought in Vista. He transformed the house with his excellent skills.

Mike did a great job for us, sanding and sealing our 65 year old hardwood floors. He expertly replaced any damaged wood pieces, and the floor looked really nice compared to how it started out.

We recently had 55 year old flooring repaired, sanded and finished. During the bidding process, Mike took an incredible amount of time answering questions and making me knowledgeable about the process. Way more than the competition. Once the work started he kept me in the loop at all times. At the end, we had 55 year old floors that looked better than brand new. He also gave us floor protectors to protect his amazing work! The only negative part was realizing that we won't need his services until he's likely retired. I'd recommend his work to anyone and everyone. read more

My wife and I are going through a remodel step by step and we finally decided to have the original oak floors sanded and redone throughout the entire house. I called three flooring contractors. One never showed up to give me a bid and the second never returned my call. Mike with Oceanside Harwood Flooring on the other hand not only returned my call but he came by for a bid and after months of my wife and I holding off on the project due to work and life in general, he followed up with me to see if I was still interested in having the floors done. He is by far the best contractor I have had inside my house. He walked us through the entire process and made everything extremely easy for us. We have pets and he made sure that the doors were shut and that the animals were safe. Most importantly he worked through a holiday weekend (Labor Day) and into the next week in order to stay on shchedule. I have never seen anyone work as hard as him. It was motivating to know that there are people out there like Mike that love what they do and do it extremely well. He was on time and worked until the end of the day everyday. I have personally told Mike all of this and it is only fair that I share this info so others can pull the trigger and redo their floors knowing that they are getting one of the best and most knowlegable guys out there. The floors are officially done and now it is time to paint and add base boards. Thanks Mike for a great job. I wish we had more wood floors for you to work on since it was that great of an experience working with you. Tyler Carlsbad, CA read more

Mike was absolutely outstanding as far as customer service. He wasn't able to assist me with my engineered hardwood flooring, but was patient and kind enough to point me in the right direction. Thanks Mike! read more

Mike restored my 60 year old hardwood floors to near new condition. You can tell the guy knows his stuff when it comes to flooring. My initial contact was through his website. I filled out the online form and received a call within 24hours. He gave me a base estimate sight unseen and we worked out a time where he could see the floors. Upon seeing the floors he explained to me how he replaces boards that had termite damage and gave me a fair price for the work involved. My floors apparently have narrow width boards so he had to size and rip each new piece by hand and modify the groove system to that the new board would glue in. Not a small task. I had 7 total boards that needed to be replaced. Mike worked efficiently to keep the project within my schedule so that we could easily line up the painters, cleaners, and movers. I'll definitely call him in a decade when I need the floors redone again! Thanks Mike read more

Mike refinished the hardwood floors in our entire house. He did an amazing job! The floors look great and the process went smoothly. We needed transition pieces to some new flooring in the kitchen a few months later and Mike was willing to come by and work something up for us. Again, we were happy with the work. I really can't recommend Mike and Oceanside Hardwood Flooring enough. read more

Mike was awesome! I kind of got carried away 6 months ago when I was looking to get my 1930s original hardwood floors refinished and met with 7 different companies I found off yelp. Mike was the only one that I felt was on my side. The other hardwood refinishers were trying to up sell me on everything and anything. When I met Mike though he spent a lot of time educating me on what would really be the best solution for me. Not just what would allow him to charge the most. The finished product was incredible and his price was great. I actually called Mike a few weeks ago to get some advice on buying and installing new wood flooring in a home I was selling. He spent a fair amount of time with me on the phone and gave me some great information. He is a wealth of knowledge and someone you can trust. I will definitely refer my friends to him. Thanks Mike. read more

I just used Mike @Oceanside Hardwood Flooring for a complete installation of hardwood flooring in my small home.From the first phone call to him he gave me valuable information and I knew he was the right person to do my installation.

Mike's quote was very competitive, he was conscientious and the quality of his work was excellent.

Mike recently completed a small repair job for us in Oceanside where he filled in some heater floor vents. He did an excellent job of explaining the process throughout the time he was there to do the repairs. He matched the wood beautifully and we are very excited to have our floors back to the original state when the house was built in 1947. Mike was also punctual and very clean. I would highly recommend him for major or minor jobs. We found him by luck on the Internet. Thanks Mike!!! read more

Mike is a no nonsense hardwood restoration machine. My wife and I bought a fixer upper in Oceanside that had 55 year old red oak floors. They were termite damaged and hidden under terrible laminate. I got 4 separate quotes and Mike was the best price, most personable and also knowledgable of the 4. Not only did he restore our floors, replace the termite damaged boards and extend new red oak to the kitchen (which matches the rest of the house perfectly). He gave us a ton of sticky pads for all our furniture to protect the floors when he finished. Great guy and very thankful for his help in restoring our floors. Highly recommend Mike! read more

Mike is a true professional! He came to our rescue after having had a terrible refinishing job mess and not only cleaned up and corrected the mess - he refinished our floors beautifully. He saved our lives truly by working through the weekend and into the night to resolve and beautify our living room, office, bathroom, and kitchen oak floors. He is a master and a really nice guy too! Thanks a million Mike - the compliments just keep on coming. read more
