Finish First Hardwood Floors is a flooring contractor whose public profile centers on hardwood installation and refinishing. Customers describe Greg Selby and his crew handling new oak and hickory floors, old-floor restoration, repairs, stairs, and difficult layouts.
The written record is consistently positive, with 63 reviews dated from 2017 through 2026 across six sources and 34 Google ratings at five stars. Recent 2026 reviewers praised refinishing that removed blemishes from older floors and described the crew as communicative and committed to the result. Older accounts add concrete examples: a 2024 homeowner said a 144-year-old floor was restored, another described four bedrooms and a hallway with carpet and subfloor removal, and a 2023 review reported water and dog-claw damage eliminated. A 2022 reviewer described an old, challenging home with wide-plank hickory installed on schedule.
Communication and scheduling recur throughout the reviews. Homeowners mention prompt estimates, daily or regular updates, clear explanations of stain and finish choices, clean work areas, and attention to timelines. In a 2021 review, a homeowner who did not proceed still praised the timely visit, honesty about a soft pine floor, and the price. The review record also includes a hardwood repair in a rental unit, completed in two days after a competitive quote based on photos.
The public material supports asking about the exact floor condition, the limits of refinishing versus replacement, finish and stain options, the expected schedule, and how repairs will blend with existing boards. The profile shows a strong fit for homeowners seeking hardwood installation, restoration, refinishing, or repair who value detailed communication; confirm the scope, materials, and timeline during the estimate.
