The entire process, from quote to completion of job, was simple, thorough and professional. John was proactive in every aspect of communication including when he was on his way, what the timelines would be once work started and when we could place our items back in the garage. Both John and Josh epitomized professionalism and were extremely detailed as they prepped, cleaned and finished the floor. We are extremely pleased with the finished product and highly recommend them. 6-16-2020: Had John and his team come out to help us resurface the back patio based on the tremendous job they did on our garage and our Parents outdoor covered patio. Edwin and his colleagues came out promptly on Monday (sent a text notifying me ahead of time too) and began the process. Complete professionals and were extremely efficient in their work, walking us through what to expect for the two days. After completing the final step (clear coat seal) they worked to remove all the extra flakes from the yard and ensured the entire area was clean. John called after to confirm the job and clean up was to our satisfaction, which it was. I would recommend John and his company to anyone looking at resurfacing their garage or covered patios

WOW, WOW, WOW!!!! That is exactly what I said when I got home from work and saw my garage floor finished......WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!I have been wanting to epoxy my garage floor for the last 10 years but I had two major problems. 1) I couldn't find a company that I was happy with to do the work (I had another house done by a different company and I was disappointed with those results so I was hesitant). 2) I didn't want to empty the garage. However, it was so very much worth cleaning the garage in preparation to Ca Custom Coatings arrival.John was AMAZING to work with and it is very hard to find amazing people these days. John was responsive, knowledgeable, quick and extremely flexible (I had to reschedule my job 3 times and I live 2 hrs away!) Sorry John πŸ™‚Matt, who came to do the work, was incredibly hard working, pleasant to talk to, respectable and friendly. And, btw, he helped me move out a few heavy items from the garage, he was literally a life/back saver!If you're going to do any type of floor coatings don't mess around go straight to the best - Ca Custom Coatings.Thanks John and Matt, my whole family is so happy with our new floor!

John, owner, Craig (Lead Tech), and team did an amazing job on our floors. We took three bids and all were fairly close. We chose John and California Custom Floors for three reasons:1). John was knowledgeable and easy to work.2). They were able to accommodate our timing for flooring (technically all flooring contractors did but they provided the best time and date)3). They had the most options for types of export flooring. We picked Brindle and we have not stopped getting compliments on the floor. Looks amazing.4). Reviews. Reviews. Reviews. We chose only contractors that had 4 stars and above. They were perfect and will continue with this review.Thx John and Team!!!
