Friendly Hardwood Flooring LLC

Friendly Hardwood Flooring LLC is a Lawrence, MA outfit run by Vinh Le, focused on hardwood floor installation, refinishing, and repair. The thing that keeps coming up across a 4.8-star run of 32 Thumbtack reviews is Vinh catching problems before they become bigger ones. In a June 2026 review, a homeowner's 26-year-old red oak floors turned out to have cracks and water damage reaching the subfloor once he looked closer during the quote, and he replaced the affected section as part of the job. A similar story shows up in an April 2026 review, where pulling up an old rug for a staircase refinish uncovered wood issues he worked through rather than papering over. Other reviewers, from February 2026 back to a September 2025 job, point to competitive pricing and a habit of not cutting corners, and a June 2026 review of a carpet-to-hardwood conversion across three rooms was clean enough that the homeowner brought him back for more work in the house. Worth knowing going in: the deeper track record lives on Thumbtack. HomeAdvisor and Angi each show just one rating so far, both five stars and both describing the same professionalism, so there isn't much history yet on those platforms to weigh independently. For a homeowner with older hardwood that hasn't been touched in decades, or one buried under carpet with unknown condition underneath, this is a case for getting a quote and asking directly what he expects to find once the flooring comes up.
