Dubon Flooring

Dubon Flooring is a Winthrop, MA hardwood-floor specialist that says it's been in business 13 years, and the thing that stands out across a decade of reviews is how consistently the word "fair" comes up next to the word "punctual." The company holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration under Dubon Flooring Corp. Owner Manuel (Manny) Dubon-Vasquez runs it with a small crew — Thumbtack lists 8 employees and a background check completed in October 2025 — and the business has picked up Thumbtack's Top Pro recognition four separate years: 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020. The reviews read like the same story told a dozen different ways over nearly a decade. In a September 2025 review, a customer called the pricing fair and the finish work clean. A 2024 review went further, calling it "my first all around good experience with a contractor in 13 years," citing fair pricing, committed scheduling, and quick, respectful communication. Several 2022-2025 reviews describe crews showing up on time every day, working around the homeowner's own schedule, and leaving the job site clean. Further back, in 2016 and 2017 reviews on Thumbtack, customers described getting the most reasonable quote after collecting several estimates, and one recalled Dubon patching a set of large radiator holes before sanding and finishing the floor to a result they called perfect. HomeAdvisor separately shows a perfect 5.0 stars across 9 reviews dated 2018 through September 2025. A couple of things are worth asking about directly. The listed address varies by source: the state license record and Porch's profile place the business at 494 Shirley St in Winthrop, while HomeAdvisor lists 11 Woods Ave in Revere — worth confirming which is current. And the name attached to the actual work varies too: earlier reviews (2016-2018) name Manny himself doing the job, while several 2022-2024 reviews name a team member, Armando — not unusual for a company with a small crew, but worth asking who will specifically be assigned. For hardwood floor refinishing, sanding and staining, or floor repair in the Winthrop/Revere area, this is a contractor with an unusually long, consistently positive paper trail and a verified license to back it up — confirm the current address and who's on the job before booking.
