Once meeting with Gary Novotny, CEO, of Novotny's Refinishing Inc., it was clear he would be the kind of flooring contractor most any homeowner could trust & work with. This clarity was apparent from the initial consultation & futher exemplified in the written estimate which described in detail labor & material cost options up front. Not only was he tolerant of concerns most homeowners share about choosing a wood flooring product, but he offered choices from local contractor/designer-only suppliers, which gave ample selections including everything from American hardwoods to solid French oak at lower than standard retail prices. If there is the neccessity of leveling hastily constructed or settled subfloors, his expert installers repaired these problem areas. Squeaky floors are gone & "glueing" (request VOC- free adhesives) gives a solid feel & improves heat retention. Doing city rehabilitation under time & budget restraints makes this CEO's work for wood floors clearly unsurpassed!

For the 35 years I lived in my house in Glendale, the hardwood floors were covered with carpet. What a surprise to see how beautiful the hardwood floors were restored by the Novotny Refinishing team. A few defects were expertly and completely repaired and a new baseboard was installed. The workers were very neat and tidy. Dust was kept to a minimum. I am thoroughly pleased with my new floor!
