I don't like leaving 1 star reviews but when you come to the house, take your measurements, say you'll get back to me in a week and then never do even after I call you a week later and you just let me go to voicemail and then don't call me back I had no choice.

Our Real Estate agent recommended Christopherson Wood Floors - very glad she did. Our 20 year old maple floors were in need of some "love". Christopherson came promptly and gave an estimate for sanding off the old finish and replacing it with 3 coats of new. Everything done professionally, as scheduled with a beautiful end product. I don't think that Christopherson has a "cheap" option - they do a high end best that can be done job that is worth it.

Christopherson Hard Wood Floors, in Tumwater, WA, did an original install in 1988 of a hallway, kitchen, casual dining area and formal dining room. Because we have a 'no shoes' policy at our home, the floors have remained shiny with few dents and only one small (about a foot in diameter) water stain. We decided to have Christopherson install HWFs in our large living room (18'x20'). They 'laced' the new flooring with the 31 year old dining room floor, refinished all the flooring and they look fantastic!
Can't tell the difference between the old dining room floor and new flooring, and the stain is gone. The job was done on-time, on-budget and the after install clean-up was excellent. We highly recommend Christopherson Hard Wood Floor to everyone.

I love my refinished oak floors! My guess is that the floors in this house had not been refinished for well over 40 years. They were crusty and stained and dented and scratched and full of nail holes from old carpeting and just plain old gross! I'm thankful at how gorgeous they look. Very impressive. Excellent work. The clear satin finish was the way to go. Good advice. The wood definitely has its own beautiful color and tones. Wow. Thanks you guys. Teresa Shattuck
