We had old, scratched and faded hardwood floors in my kitchen and foyer, and carpet in the rest of the living areas. Andy with Gateway flooring laid new hardwood flooring in the place of carpet, and weaved into the existing hardwood. We decided on a darker stain. The results are amazing. Andy’s craftsmanship is bar none. He is professional and highly knowledgeable and takes great pride in his work. I highly recommend Gateway Flooring and will be using them for more upcoming projects! **★★★★★ — HU-821011420, March 2019** > I have used Gateway Flooring many times. For my apartments and jobs that I was the general contractor on. They have alway done quality work and are extremely pleasant to work with. Highly Recommend them. > Dan Sippel > Sippel and Fitzgerald Property’s LLC **★★★★★ — HU-456380833, March 2019** > Gateway Flooring does Great work. I was needing my floors refinished and quarter round replaces. They have very competitive prices!! They were professional showing up on time each day and cleaning up after each day.

Andy came over and was able to refinish my old floors and they look better than I could have imagined for a fraction of the cost of new flooring. **Comment from Gateway Flooring:** > Sometimes its amazing the life we can restore in old hardwood floors! Thank you for taking the time to give us a review! **★★★★★ — Juanita Hinshaw, March 2019** > I hired Gateway Flooring to refinish my hardwood floors. Andy and Tony were always professional, on time and took care not to scratch or damage my furniture. Andy explained what I should expect. They were careful to keep dust to a minimum and cleanerd up each day. I felt comfortable leaving them alone to do their work while I left home to do mine. They locked up each day when they finished. In short they exceeded my expectations and i would definitely hire them again. **Comment from Gateway Flooring:** > Thank you for the kind words Juanita! Our goal on every project is to exceed our customers expectations!! **★★★★★ — pegmcginnis, March 2019** > Norb and Andy were very professional. Price was also very fair.
