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
I'm thrilled with the way our garage floors turned out. These folks did high quality work and did it quickly. Very professional and detailed and I'll be enjoying my beautiful garage for many years to come. Thank you!
