Testimonials from our customers


I just wanted you to know how nice our dining and living room floors look. Your guys were outstanding workers. They were always on time when they said they would be. They did a great job of moving furniture, but most of all they were very accommodating to my schedule. Many thanks - Tom and Nancy Minske

Thank you so much for the excellent service on our floors. The sanding and refinishing of the kitchen floor and cleaning and waxing of the rest of the first floor was on schedule and all the floors came out looking like new. Your quality and service have not changed in the many years we have been using you. - Sally Floberg

I just wanted to thank you for the work you and your crew did for us. They did a beautiful job. And with all the extras that I needed done they accomplished without complaint. I just wanted to say that ALL your guys were gentleman and very professional. I would recommend your company to anyone. Thank you again for making our home everything we were wanting it to be and more. - Pauline Veiga

I wanted to let you know what a fine job you and your company did in my home. Your crews were right on time and always very professional in the way they went about their business. It would be tough to distinguish the new floor from the old in the kitchen and foyer had we not known that they had feathered the new floors in. I have had other companies refinish floors for me in my previous home, and those companies were not as thorough as you were. They left a mess and their work was inferior to the work that you and your crew preformed. It's nice to have someone do what they say and more for a change. If you ever need a referral please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to speak with anyone who is considering your services. Thank you once again for a job well done. - Maria Carlson

I just wanted to write you a quick note to tell you how pleased we are with the kitchen floor. It looks fabulous! The color is perfect! It makes the kitchen look so warm and inviting. I know we have used your company to do other floors, but this time you really outdid yourselves. I especially like the fact that you clean up after yourselves. What a huge help! We actually could move back into our kitchen immediately upon our return. Thank you again, Phil, for a job well done! - Missy Gettleman

My wife and I would like to express our great appreciation and admiration for the wonderful job your company did in restoring our hardwood floors and staircase. Your professionalism, attention to detail, timeliness, cheerfulness and willingness to go to almost any lengths to satisfy us was nothing short of fantastic! Your ability to provide us with the exact color we wanted was outstanding! The same men worked on the job each day, and always left our home as clean as possible. The floors and staircase look better than our greatest hopes. When we redo our bedroom floors next year, we won't even bother getting other estimates. Kater Floors is the one call we'll make! Thanks again! - Rich Panitch

Now that the floors are finished I wanted to tell you again how very happy we are with how they turned out. They look really beautiful, the surface is smooth and even and the finish is just perfect. The color is just what I was looking for and your guys did a perfect job matching the color. I hope when we do other floors in the future the same guys come back. They were so careful and really good with detail work. After the last miserable time three years ago when another company did such a truly bad job of sanding and refinishing the floors, I was dreading having them done again. This time however it turned out to be pretty painless and well worth whatever was involved. Although this may seem a small point compared to the more important issue of the quality of the job, it was a nice plus that your crew are such nice guys and so easy to have around. - Brae Korin

I just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful floors you installed in my home this fall. They turned out better then I ever hoped for. My neighbors are all envious. The quality of the work is truly outstanding. Additionally, the friendliness, helpfulness, dependability, and trustworthiness of all the guys who did the work, particularly your foreman, made an unavoidable disruptive and messy project quite bearable. Thank you so much. I will not hesitate to recommend your work to anyone looking for a referral. - Anne Simpson

I write this to let you know that we appreciate the work you recently completed in our home. Since we were displaced while the second floor living area of our home had the floors sanded and refinished the scheduling you had promised was maintained. And we were able to move back in as promised. By removing selected areas of the floor and installing new plywood underlayment the squeaking floors have been virtually eliminated. This portion of the job worked out better then we had hoped. The overall quality of the work is excellent, and we couldn't be more pleased with the results. - Link Smith

We just realized that we had written, but never sent, this letter to thank you for your wonderful service and outstanding outcome following the complete sanding and refinishing of our wood floors. We were scheduled in a timely manner and received immediate response to our numerous questions. The crew arrived at our home as scheduled and proceeded to move the furniture and started to work without delay. Your foreman was very accommodating during our visits back to our home during the process and was genuinely enthusiastic about how the floors would look when the work was completed. He always carefully explained what was being done and took special care to ensure that our wishes were met. Our biggest desire was to come home to beautiful floors as quickly as possible. The crew actually completed the job early, and upon arriving to move the furniture back, went through the house to confirm that we were satisfied. Thank you for our beautiful floors and excellent service. We would highly recommend Kater Floors and look forward to continuing to use your services in the future. - Doug Elden

Your installers were so polite and professional. They were on time and cleaned up everything. Your coordination was so important so that I could get all my contractors working together to make the job go as quickly as possible. And you coordinated the project beautifully. Your suggestions made the finished product look so much better then I could have imagined. I want people to know what a great experience we had. Thanks so much! - Susan Alexander

The floor is beautiful! The crew was fantastic. They did an excellent job from top to bottom. From demo, to installation, to clean up. They even put some felt glides under the furniture legs. Thanks for all your help making this such an easy transition from carpet to hardwood. We love it! - Dean Sanders

The floor is spectacular and I couldn't be happier. Please thank your team as they were so courteous, prompt, professional and left my home so clean. They were wonderful and do incredible work. Please feel free to use me as a reference. We are very satisfied customers - Jim McNamara

Thank you for the great job you and your crew did on the floors. The mahogany inlays and the diagonal direction of the boards are absolutely beautiful. We have received a number of compliments from friends who have wanted to use your services. Many thanks for all of your effort! - Michael Moran
