Stellar job on the original hardwoods in my 1940’s home! Accurate and fair quote. Stayed on the schedule he provided me. And the finished job is truly beautiful. I only wished I had know this could have been done years ago! Highly recommend!

We hired Dan to redo the floors in our house. We were talking about a refinish but he told us he could do a buff and coat and get the exact same result for half the price. We had concerns going in whether or not the previous owner using Euka oil would cause us problems with a refinish, we gave some of the oil to Dan for him to test out (to which his conclusion was it wouldn’t be a problem if he buffed it and actually put down another coat of it) and hired him to do the floors. After the refinish, the finish on the floor never hardened and flakes/rubs off with no effort 3 months later! We called Dan back within a week of install to inspect which he did after putting it off for several weeks, and he stated he would give us our money back due to his shoddy work or put it towards redoing the floors entirely. He was adamant that if he sanded the floors down further it would work this time. We opted to get other bids as we weren’t 100% confident in his abilities at this point, all of the bids were 2/3 or less the price of what he wanted including the refund! So after telling him we would like a refund, he disappears, and after I call him to ask about the refund (he is too good to return calls apparently) he decided he is NOT going to give us a refund and threatened ME with legal action! It became all too obvious he was just trying to get more work and money out of us. I would avoid this individual, he clearly is not a man of his word and he doesn’t stand behind his work. Also notice all the fake reviews that magically appeared after mine? More proof he is a highly dishonest individual! The pictures of the scratched up floors were taken 1 month after he applied the protective coating to my floor. The other flooring company that will be fixing his work was readily able to point out he clearly didn’t do his due dilligence and used oils and topcoats that arent compatible. It even says on the bottle for Bona Traffic HD that you cannot have any oil based products on the wood or it would not adhere! Dan was 100% aware out of the gate the floor had an oil finish and not only lied about testing the product as he agreed to before we set a date for the work but couldn’t be bothered to even read the bottle of the product he selected! It’s also noteworthy on the contract he stated he would put down more oil prior to the top coat. The other flooring companies we recieved bids from came to the obvious conclusion he has no idea what he is doing. I would highly suggest going with the much more stable and skilled flooring companies around Bellingham, this is the only negative review I have ever left for a company on Google and I did so for a very good reason. As an update, I had to sue Dan to get him to pay up for the $12,000 in damages he did to my home. Only then did he pay up.

Dan and team refinished 695 square feet of white oak flooring at my house, and the floors look just great. When my partner had questions about what the final product would look like, they took the time to show three different finishes or stains – on a bit of our actual floors, not store samples on small pieces of wood. As an amateur woodworker, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the “dustless sanding” is actually dustless – not a trace anywhere. They paid attention to the details and did a really fine job. Update 5 years later: Floors still look good and show hardly any wear. Finish is holding strong. Testimony to the durability of oak, a quality finish product, and good workmanship.

Dan did an amazing job refinishing our hardwood floors. Our kitchen floor was very scratched up now looks brand new! Thank you Dan!

I had a smaller size floor that needed refinishing and Dan was able to fit the job in fairly quickly which was great, no dust in my home and the floors turned out better than I expected.

Dan sanded and refinished our clear fir floors in the kitchen, breakfast area, dining room and front hall. We have big dogs in the house and the floors were definitely showing wear and damage. He did a fantastic job and the floors look great. We left town while he did the work, and when we returned there was no chemical smell and there was no dust anywhere. We will recommend him to friends and will use him again in the future.

Dan and his crew did our floors back in November. We couldn’t have asked for better customer service, a great job, and a fair price. And, over a month later, with our dogs and us doing our best to wreak havoc on the floor, it still looks great. Thanks Dan.

We had Robbins Hardwood install sand a finish some wide plank oak floors this summer at our home. They did an excellent job. Easy to work with and had great recommendations on the care of our floor after. We are so pleased with how our floors turned out. Will highly recommend.

Had hardwood floors done by Robbins Hardwood. They did an amazing job, from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to refinish flooring, or installing and finishing flooring. Trustworthy, honest and did a great job. Very happy with the work that the owner and the worker that helped him did
