Description Of Work:
Yuri and his crew removed 850 square feet of carpet, tile, and existing wood floors and replaced with new Engineered Hardwood Floors (we have an Eichler Home in Foster City and have working radiant heat which requires the use of Engineered floors). Yuri also removed two walls in our entry hall, built two new closets (one in the bedroom hallway and the other in one of the bedrooms) including studs, drywall and finished in ready-to-paint condition and a built-in desk area. We purchased the materials on our own, including the hardwood flooring (Golden Sate Flooring in SSF, foam underlayment and new baseboards (from the Molding Company in Millbrae).
Member Comments:
We contacted and interview several companies for this fairly large project. We liked Yuri right away decided to go ahead with him based on our interview and Angie's list referrals. Yuri and his crew are absolutely incredible. They arrived every day on the promised time (they are based out of Daily City and we're in Foster City. They worked everyday, including Saturday, until the job was complete. They covered our kitchen in plastic to keep off the dust (Dust!!! It gets in everything and no matter how many times you clean up, it keeps coming back. Get used to it!) They are very good at remodeling and rebuilding. They framed and drywalled two new closets and a new entry hall in our home and did a terrific job. We had several quotes for the job that exceeded $14,000 and that was just for the hardwood floors. Yuri and his crew charged us $5,600 for "everything thing". We saved many thousands of dollars! They are terrific and we will use them again!
