In May 2021 a congregation had its 1833 white oak church floors and chancel restored by H&M; a month later, a homeowner with 140-year-old boards had the same done. Floors people assume are past saving are what this crew is hired for, and the accounts afterwards keep saying the same thing: they look newly installed rather than refinished. The recent jobs run the same way. A February 2026 customer had the living room, dining room, four bedrooms and hallway done, with the crew arriving on time, saying when they were finished for the day and cleaning up each evening. A November 2025 customer who had bought a house built in the 1960s, its floors probably never redone, had them refinished and repaired. Another that month described cracks filled, sanding and several coats of finish, inside the timeframe quoted and at a fair price. In June 2025, old pine flooring was sanded and refinished. They install as well as refinish — a November 2025 customer had hardwood fitted on a staircase, one of two jobs they hired the company for. The business is a two-person sole proprietorship in Lynn, BBB-accredited at A+ since January 2020, with a business start of December 2017 on file. HomeAdvisor shows 4.9 from 59 ratings, 95 per cent of them five stars, with the review bodies it publishes running from May 2021 to February 2023. Some of the claims on that HomeAdvisor page disagree with each other, and they are the ones to pin down before you sign. Its About blurb advertises a 10-year warranty at no extra cost on all services, while the page's own FAQ says the company does not offer warranties. The same blurb says every employee has over 20 years in the trade, against "9 years of experience" elsewhere on the page and the December 2017 start date at the BBB. Customers also deal with a principal they call Hugo, while the BBB profile names the owner as Jose M Melara. For bringing tired hardwood back — old, worn, scratched or previously never touched — around Lynn and the North Shore, what customers describe has held steady across five years of accounts. Get the estimate in writing with the number of finish coats specified, and ask plainly whether any warranty applies and in what words.
H and M floor finishers were very professional. They came on time and worked clean. Their price was reasonable. The floors look great. We will use this company again
We,my wife and I have lived in this home for close to 40 years. We have remodeled several times, but the one thing we never did was to refinish the “ white oak “ floors , my oldest daughter used a contractor to install and finish the floor in one of the rooms of her home in swampscott, so I called him to see if he would come to Brockton to give me an estimate. We were going on vacation for close to a month and I figured if I could get the floors done when we were gone then get someone to clean prior to us coming home my life would be whole, anytime I had something done before my wife freaked about the dust and dirt. It all worked out, Hugo and his team revived these tired old floors that my family had abused for so many years, to a beyond belief condition. This home has now become a happy place for us, and I didn’t have to cover them with that crappy LVP stuff they advertise, Hugo is a 5 star contractor and I recommend him not only for his work but also for his honesty.
Hugo and his team were great to work with on our small project. They worked around our schedule and were very accommodating. We’re very pleased with our beautiful new floors!
Hugo was great to work with. We had our living room, dining room, 4 bedrooms, and hallway done. Him and his crew always showed up on time and let me know when they were done for the day. They cleaned up after each day and left the house in good condition. He communicated the entire time of the project. Would definitely recommend him.
My floors came out better than I could have imagined. Floors previously were in rough shape but H&M made them like new. H&M gave a very fair quote, were timely and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their hardwood floors refinished.
