## The honest read

A bedroom had original pine planks buried for years under old linoleum. In a 2024 review, the homeowner said Pedro came out, assessed the job properly, and walked them through what it would take — stripping the stubborn glue layer, filling the gaps, and bringing the boards back. Alcantara Hardwood Floors is the Lowell company that takes that kind of work.

Pedro runs it, and customers write about him by name. In a 2023 review, a homeowner whose floors had holes, missing boards and deep marks had him look, measure and come back with a quote the next day, with a clear account of what needed doing. In a 2024 review, a repeat customer had 40-year-old kitchen and dining room floors repaired and refinished as part of a remodel, and said the crew worked late nights to hold the schedule.

The work brings its own referrals. A couple in a 2022 review called after seeing the herringbone hallway Pedro had laid for their son and daughter-in-law in North Andover, then had him do the family room, living room and entry hall. In a 2023 review, a customer hired the crew to sand and stain a dining room floor and liked the result enough to have them finish the room as well. In a 2021 review, another homeowner had an entire first floor installed in a day, over the holiday season.

He will also talk a customer out of what they walked in asking for. In a May 2026 review, a homeowner who had wanted hardwood that needed staining said Pedro's honest advice and what he showed them changed their mind, and that this, more than the number, is why he got the job over similar quotes.

The company installs and refinishes hardwood, bamboo and laminate. On Google it holds 5 stars across 30 ratings, its Porch profile averages 4.9 from 105 reviews, and the BBB grade is A+.

For refinishing old boards — or a floor another company has written off as needing replacement — this is a direct call. Get the assessment in writing before the crew starts, covering what gets filled, what gets replaced, and how many coats of finish go on.

**Strengths:**
- Damaged floor repair — holes, missing boards and deep marks made good
- Original pine rescued — linoleum, glue and gaps dealt with properly
- Fast quoting — floor seen one day, priced the next
- Repeat and referred — a herringbone hallway led to three more rooms
- Deadline work — late nights run to finish a remodel on time
