Chris Allmond Wood Flooring

Chris refinished our hundred-​year old oak floors a few years ago, and he was great! Good work at the right price. I’d definitely recommend him and hire him again.

When Chris isn’t distracted he can do a good job at a fair price. He’s a nice guy, honest and helpful. But he’s not really good about standing behind his work if there’s a problem. I can’t help thinking there are others in his trade who exhibit more professionalism. Party on, dude!
Update from 8÷7÷10 to 5÷29÷11: Since writing the above, I contacted Chris about some filler that was deteriorating on the last job he did for me and asked him to fix it. He didn’t refuse, exactly, but he didn’t make any arrangements to fix it either. Nobody else I contacted will try to repair his work without redoing the whole floor. So I’ve reduced my rating from two stars to one star.
It pains me to update this review. I’ve used Chris for at least 8 years on several apartments. At one time, he was great. Not as great as mi e makes him out to be, though. On the last job, he was so far from the super-​contractor that mi e describes that I have to wonder about this review. It almost sounds like advertising copy, I’m afraid.
I wish I could give Chris a good Unilocal.But I’ve watched him slide. On the last job, the one he won’t warranty, he left three cans of beer in my refrigerator. When I asked him about that, he told me that he’d left them there for me. I don’t drink beer, and Chris knows that. As I said before, party on, dude!

Chris is a really easy-​going yet hard-​working guy.
He can do all kinds of hardwood flooring, from simple to complex. For me, he’s done mainly red oak top-​nailed flooring, but I know he can work with more exotic woods than that.
He’s a pleasure to talk to, easy to work with, and can work himself down to a nub to get the job done on time.
I have called him back three times to do different jobs at my house and I think that says a lot. Five stars.
